I know it seems improbable now but far more disruptive and troublesome players like BJ Leilua have been signed by three or four clubs so I still think Flanagan gets another chance. Especially considering there is a shortage of halves.After reading the articles about the way he’s carried on at the roosters and now us which club in their right mind takes him on. I’d say we’re stuck with him now.
That day might be when Cleary has been retired for ten years.Lol barrett saying when we signed him that he will be as good as Cleary one day
Maybe Ricky takes him on (fingers crossed). I never understood why we offered 3 years considering the circumstances. Then we sign Burton to 2 years with the third in his favour.I know it seems improbable now but far more disruptive and troublesome players like BJ Leilua have been signed by three or four clubs so I still think Flanagan gets another chance.

Our best bet is if Shane gets another coaching gig. Or if Canberra or the Tigers take a chance on him if we pay part of his contract. Either way, this is why you don't give fringe players three year deals because you're stuck with them if they don't work out.
Exactly!Watch his game last week & there were definite changes in his playing style. He took the line on more often, ran straighter lines, closed ok about 50% of end of sets. Still short of FG material but appears to be working on his game.
Destiny in his in hands now. Needs to work hard, more positive involvement & more energy. Never know what can happen.
You wouldn't want to have your bum up with Donkey Dick Elliott and Big Papa lurking about. Flanno wouldn't be able to walk straight for weeksHead Down, Bum Up, Work Hard & You'll Be Right!!!
I thought I gave this advise earlier when you were dropped, but this is really as simple as life gets - not just footy.
Unfortunately with the way the Salary Cap works even if he quits and goes elsewhere. Unless the new club picks up the full contract amount, we are stuck with whatever he has signed for under the cap. For the duration of his contract term.I think we should continue telling him he is part of our plans, while playing him in lower grade. With his attitude he will quit for an opportunity elsewhere, rather than us having to get rid of him and pay some of his freight.
If he quits the contract we owe him nothing.. just like raiders English halfback. So long as its a mutual agreement we would be in the clearUnfortunately with the way the Salary Cap works even if he quits and goes elsewhere. Unless the new club picks up the full contract amount, we are stuck with whatever he has signed for under the cap. For the duration of his contract term.
So either way we will pay some freight regardless.
