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?

Surely not true. Dean has proved too incompetent to ask the players for input....well maybe Elliott, Tolman, Jacko and Floppa.

I can confirm the majority of the posters points are 100% true

Players don’t know whether they are coming or going
There is nothing wrong with browns foot
Rfm rejected a guaranteed fg spot to remain with us to get demoted
He has pets no surprises for guessing who
Martin won’t be at the club passed this year 100% confirmed

the only issue is who do they replace him with? would we be happy with georgallis taking over until a suitable coach becomes available? I have full confidence in steve picking a full strength team every week and he had the ISP boys playing a pretty good brand of footy last year. Interesting times

Replace him with Toovey or hook.

Enough talk, make it happen!
His removal will be a blessing, not a disaster!

ISP was one out shit last year and because of the quality of our props it worked.

Need to see him in a different scenario to determine whether he’s got the goods or not

Where is our low point as a club
This year has turned into a real disaster,I feel that Pays appointment has set us even further back
His contract extension achieved absolutely nothing in regards to stability or players feeling more comfortable
The board has to start all over again in finding a new coach
A waisted 18 months in our history books.

Damn clown. I hate what he is doing to our team, and the worst thing about all of this is that we demanded a "Bulldog" be our coach...

The only disaster will be, if Pay stays at Belmore
