Did RL coach to LOSE final vs Swans to get over to FREO?

Would seem unrealistic, but after tonight's actions, nothing is out of the ordinary for this bloke.

As he said, nothing 'worked' on the night, the coaching dept got it 'wrong' with prep & tactics for this game...

Maybe he was keen to collect his first pay packet and enjoy the sun in his new home....

Would explain why Dempster was started in the forward line.

Nah, he didn't care.

Didn't deliberately lose, just lacked effort.

Really?

Negotiates for the last 6+ weeks with Freo, lies to his agent, lies to the club, lies to the players, lies to the fans....

Oh come on P66...Of course what I wrote was under normal circumstances 'crap'...but these are not normal circumstances....unlikely to be true, BUT, went into that game knowing:
- He had a $7.5mil deal in the bag with another club
- He lied to the players, admin, his agency and fans about his plans

Given all of that, how can you deny that it had no effect on his focus, or how he may have been planning for that game, or the decisions he made in the box?
