There were rumours a couple months back that he was looking at going back to the Warriors. Will be interesting to see who the Panthers have lined up for the role though.
Jeez that's harsh. Made the Top 4 last year and this year was basically a write-off due to injuries etc.
Panthers have sacked the wrong guy. They will never be successful as long as they have Peter Wallace at their club.
I'm about as angry about this as I was with the club when they sacked Lewis. Read an article from Gould this morning saying that in August he noticed Cleary was 'tired' and said maybe he needed a year off. I can't say I could blame a coach for looking tired when half of his first choice squad have been injured all year. Terrible call to not let him at least see out his contract. We competed despite injuries in 2015, 2014 was nothing short of miraculous and we even way over achieved in 2013 given our squad was probably the worst in the competition. He'd unearthed some real talent in Cartwright and co. and had some talent coming in with Merrin. Absolutely disgusting call.
