Interesting I was talking to few Souths boys during the week who played under Dammers/O’Connor regime & also played under Morgan.
They said the difference in culture was night and day.

Dammers/O’Connor were about building the club & developing players. Morgan was about himself & his success. Burnt players with that attitude.

Worth noting one of the boys I spoke to said at the time he was critical of Dammers as he was hard on him as a players
ut when he had an injury this season, the first call he got was from Dammers from Chicago to check in.

Souths management have allowed some crazy calls to be made by GM due to personal insecurities, none more puzzling than the sacking of O’Connor, Samoa and the immensely successful & popular 2nd Grade Coach Nick Foley.

Souths look a different club in 2025 than what they did in 2022. The 2022 was stocked with young up and coming talent. They have now all departed to chase success at other clubs… Such a shame for the Magpies.
The buck stops at the top.
The management has abrogated its decision making responsibility and taken no action as the club continues its downward spiral
Surely, the members will take some action

That would mean accountability… it’s in short supply at the place currently.

They are happy to carry on in there current state, as long as the same people get to continue to make the decisions.

Time for a full clean out to allow this next “rebuild” to take place.
