DES Hasler and the Bulldogs are headed for the Supreme Court.
The former coach is suing the club for a breach of contract, with documents filed by lawyers in the Supreme Court on Tuesday, according to Nine news reporter Danny Weidler.

The club’s decision to try to sack Hasler without a payout could end up costing them.

Hasler was punted as coach in September and pursuing a $1 million payout as per a heads of agreement he’d signed earlier in the year.

Hasler claims the agreement he’d reached with Canterbury, which tied him to the club until 2019 on a deal worth close to $2 million, is a legally binding contract.

But Bulldogs chairman Ray Dib was adamant back in September that they had no financial obligation to Hasler, telling the club website; “Des’s current contract expires October 2017.

“The board has made the decision not to renew that contract.

“Going forward there will be no liabilities on the club for the next two years.’’

Sounded too good to be true and I reckon Des will win.

I'm sure before he signed he got a full legal team to go over any cracks with a fine tooth comb and there is no way the club can sack a guy who signed a new contract without repercussions.

Just give him a million and tell him to fuck off and while we are at it - lets tell Dib to fuck off too.

By the time this gets to court the board elections will probably be over. Then they'll reach an out of court settlement with him and all will be forgotten.

Although a waste of money I reckon most fans would not have cared about paying out Hasler, we just wanted him gone.

I couldnt care less as long as that parasite is gone!
I hope the club runs him right through every court in the land because Hasler knows no one wants him ruining their club so he is done as a coach in the NRL so this is his last chance of a pay packet.
I think the club hood winked him and he bought it...he hood winked the club for 6 years so maybe they learnt something from him and got him back....

This would have always been the plan. It’s basically a ploy to make him accept less than he would have been entitled too.
You offer nothing, they sue for everything, and you agree somewhere in the middle.
I bet it doesn’t see the inside of a courtroom. Destined for settlement.

Could not give a tin shit. I hope his lawyers do as shitty a job as he did. I guess it's unlikely. Most professionals have higher standards than to just phone it in....

Fuck you Des. You took our club for a ride and I hope you struggle to find another job in footy. Arseclown.

Court settlements and findings are outside the "coaching cap"

So really. Who cares.

Moved to Rumours subforum ... Danny has been flogging this dead horse for a while.

Until it's made official elsewhere of course (from another source ouside Danny), like the club.

Like I said before...Getting rid of CANCER is PRICELESS !
The club should sue Hasler for all his wrong doings to the club !
And the NRL should sue him for jeopardizing the game by coaching the MOST BORING football in history !

Advice is exactly that, and whoever gives it usually relinquishes any responsibility of incorrect advice
