Enough said.
fLIP said:Iread a comment on a foxsports article earlier this week that rang so true. Could not have sad it better myself:
Seems the 'bred not bought' sledge makes the Bulldogs look like gooses to this day. Talk about buying a competition. Let's see. Hasler has up to 20 assistants (more than every other NRL coach), has state of the art facilities put in place, he was 5 wins and 5 losses after 10 rounds, so he had to raid other clubs and snared 2 NZ internationals, then his results turn around. You could get a monkey with that kind of support to win you games. Talk about over-rated. How'd Manly do without Des? They made the second last game of the year, hardly any kind of fall from grace. Des is only as good as the ridiculously expensive system around him. Like Manly, the Bulldogs will get sick of paying that sort of money when his ego gets out of control and he turns on the board that funds him. Like 2005 when the Oz Tag Tigers won the competition on the back of weak officials who let them 'surrender' in tackles by diving at tacklers feet to get quick play the balls, the Bulldogs 2012 success has been due to the same weak officials who have refused to sin bin them for continually giving away penalties for the same offence over 80
