Canterbury’s high-priced players will dig their heels in and hold out for their money in 2018 – and it will cost Des Hasler his job.

That’s the view of one of Hasler’s closest allies Peter Peters, who can see no way out for the two-time premiership winner.
“He’s one of my best mates on the planet but I can’t see how he’s going to survive,” the Sporting News Australia league expert told Sky Sports Radio.
“I fear for my old mate. They’re (the team) not giving him anything and he’s not getting much out of the players.
“It’s not good, it’s a tough time and they look like they’re counting the days until the end.”
But Zorba predicts even tougher times ahead for the Dogs, who must shed a host of players to get under the salary cap for next year.

Back-ended deals, which Hasler was a fan of at Manly, means a number of players are set for big paydays in 2018 and may not want to leave.
And the NRL won’t register the contracts of big-name purchases Kieran Foran and Aaron Woods until Canterbury are cap compliant.
“I hear the players are going to sit on their digs and demand their money and won’t go, and you can’t blame them,” Zorba said.
“Some of the players are on back-ended deals and this is exactly what Manly’s coming out of now.”
The Dogs are headed into wooden spoon territory after losing 10 of their past 12 games.
So it seems we have been right all along . Players just as bad as Hasler .. man just fix our team back to winners not fucking plodders!
