Perhaps.

The same style press release was issued in regards to Austin....yet within the week he was seeking legal action to sue the club for sacking him.

So the club has proven to tell porky pies, on the same day no less, so is it plausible that they told 2 'lies' on the same day? Absolutely.
Regardless, i think its more like...."You are done here. You choose how you want to go out." Vossy chose that way.

Yes, its all done and dusted. Thats not the story though.

The story is the guys who pulled the trigger......or accepted the resignation after pointing a gun to his head.
Did they do the right thing.
As above, PR spin is working wonderfully.....except the austin part.....but was it actually the right decision? Time will tell.....but most likely not reveal itself at all, look at the past 25 years of coaches.

I said the week before Vossy was sacked that i expected a few more wins in the coming weeks, this being the most likely. Next week being also likely.
So he's timing was off, he may have saved himself, but it appears the decision was already made, so there was no point.
Agree with all of that, a lot of spin and bad timing, interesting that Voss might be a consultant for the new coach selection panel being assembled which is Wright, Davies and Priestley plus two outsiders and then Voss when required.
Voss on the selection potentially? Where did that come from?

Gonna, gonna, gonna........ All you ever hear from this government.

Disgraceful regardless of which side of politics you support.
I think you are confused @shawny

Politicians make the laws, courts and police are entrusted to enforce them and hand out justice.

In Australia we have the separation of powers, so that people facing court after being charged by police cannot become a victim of political will. It also stops Australian policians rigging the result to award themself billion$ in damages while the average person can't afford eggs.
