I've just received very strong mail the Canterbury Bulldogs are headed for disaster!
___
Head coach Dean Pay will be out of a job, sooner rather than later. He has run out of ideas & options. Subsequently, he has well & truly lost the playing group.
___
Pay's fundamental issue is his communication to his players. He has chopped & changed his side this entire season & failed to keep his men in the loop.
___
Raymond Faitala-Mariner recently turned down a year & half deal with the St George Illawarra Dragons. He represented Toa Samoa last weekend & has been rewarded with a demotion to reserve grade.
___
Five eighth Nu Brown was promised he would remain in first grade. His specialist has cleared him for a return however, Pay insists his foot has not recovered - just so he can play Jack Cogger without consequences or look like he is not fulfilling his promises.
___
I'm also hearing Rhyse Martin could be pulled before kick off for Adam Elliot, but again - Dean Pay has not communicated this to the individual players.
___
Dean Pay admitted to his playing group yesterday at training that his job is under immense pressure.
___
Later, he pulled several players into a room individually & essentially asked them for any ideas to bring the best out of his side.
___
Pay basically admitted he is lost for answers. That compiled with poor communication & broken promises has lose him the respect of his team.
___
At this stage, it is very likely he is sacked or forced to resign before the 2019 season comes to a close.
___
What are your thoughts on this & who is the man to lead the Doggies moving forward?
