    The NRL should do whatever it takes for however long it takes and wherever it takes them to get THIS guy as their successor to David Gallop.

    great in his role with the bulldogs but you're comparing chicken breast with lobster. 

    McLachlan is an extremely savvy operator. If you don't believe me, look him up.

    yeah nothing, just completely cleaned up our horrible and tarnished off field image, to a stage where no sponsors wanted anything to do with us to where in the last 3 years we cant get enough interest.

    Also he is primarily responsible for getting the BEST COACH bar none in the NRL and when all is said iand done will be the best ever coach to coach NRL.

    He had nothing to do with Kevin Moore because he was a done deal when he started as Moore was life long and child hood best friends with a number of the board members.....

    Todd has set the platform for us to be one of the best clubs on and off the field for the next 10 years.....

    remember, we have a very very very young team......

    In all honesty Rostos, I think you left the Bulldogs goggles on for this one.

    Dude has done a great job with the Dogs by hiring Hasler, if he had gotten any other coach for this season the Doggies players would still be gang raping women and pissing in public streets.

    The savvy cat McLachlan is hands down the best candidate for the job...

    NRL needs to clean out the refs.

    Did like what Shane suggested last night. Have x-players in the box to help refs with ruling on try.

    Off field image was improved by guys like Mason and Matua leaving the club, and the NRL cracking down on dogs supporters at games. Greenberg was forced into doing it by Gallop.

    and if throwing money at a coach is the sign of a good administator then that makes Peter Doust a good CEO (which he is not) and Nathan Tinkler a good manager (ask his employees how good he is)

    Greenberg is no better then any other CEO out there, its just he plays the media game and is good mates with guys like Dean Richie

    remember, we have a very very very young team......



    who were Parras halves in 2005? Whoever was coach them must be an absolute genius

    Problem with having ex-players in the box to rule on try or no try etc is that they've all had a previous allegiance to a club so it's integrity is very much tarnished...

    Mason and Matua left 5-6 years ago......Even after they left we have a very very bad image. Todd got us into camp quality, we now are rejecting sponsors , that is the heathiest sign of a club.

    Uhm, Manly ended up offering Des pretty much the same as what we offered him. The reality is, we got him and got him one year early with Todd doing the wheeling and deaing.

    You are trying to compare what they did in a 10 week period to what Des has done ALL year thus far? All what Anderson did then was at about 1/2 way through the comp the eels were coming near the bottom of the comp, after realising that they have nothing to lose, they decided to play high risk nothing to lose league, hot potato...and guess what it stuck........

    What happened in the following years? Dont forget, the Parra players were playing who was the best player in the world going though a purple patch...

    One may argue Barba is in the same boat, but i disagree, Hayne has much much more tools than Barba does and in my opinion, isnt as good..

    It's a sad indictment to the NRL that they have earmarked a fumble ball administrator to run our game

    Apparently he is currently getting more than what Gallop was earning as well

    umm, Anderson wasn't there in 2005, and Hayne was still in juniors.

    The Parramatta team in 2005 had John Morris and Tim Smith as their halves. Genuine retards
