I know the results haven\u2019t gone the way they have gone this year, but whenever you hear that your coach has been sacked, it does hurt,\u201d the skipper told reporters on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s my second time now I\u2019ve been through that (a coach being sacked). It\u2019s very upsetting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou see the work that Des does behind the scenes and how much he really does care.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe results haven\u2019t been there and that\u2019s what comes with the game \u2013 how ruthless it is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 25-year-old felt the only two people at the club who had to take \u201caccountability\u201d were Justin Holbrook, who was Hasler\u2019s predecessor, and Hasler himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomeone\u2019s got to be held accountable, but talking about accountability, both times our coaches are the only one that\u2019s been kept accountable and there\u2019s got to be more than that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got to look at everything for us going forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got to look and question everything. That we\u2019re making the right decisions and we\u2019re looking at everyone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not saying there needs to be changes, but both times there\u2019s been two people kept accountable and no one else.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou don\u2019t want to get too deep into that. It\u2019s just up in my head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve got to look at everything because if you want to move forward and get better, we\u2019ve got to question everything and make sure that we\u2019ve got the right people in place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MORE NRL NEWS<\/p>\n<p>COACHING CONTENDERS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com.au\/nrl\/nrl-premiership\/nrl-2025-best-head-coaching-candidates-on-the-market-who-will-hire-them-could-they-be-hired-knights-sam-burgess-billy-slater-rugby-league-news\/news-story\/66bc8dbb1ab3ab7c81fad7e3f56d86e1\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Forgotten men, rising stars chasing NRL jobs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2018COOKED\u2019: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com.au\/nrl\/nrl-premiership\/nrl-2025-adam-obrien-sacked-replacement-blake-green-knights-coaching-job-news-video\/news-story\/0abebda5ca6414748c2a1fda56ad9691\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Claims O\u2019Brien \u2018lost dressing room\u2019 as likely replacement revealed<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2018DON\u2019T GIVE A S***\u2019: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com.au\/nrl\/nrl-premiership\/nrl-2025-penrith-panthers-resting-players-brad-schneider-nathan-cleary-canterbury-bulldogs-finals-news-video\/news-story\/ac79bf1987e7ca079399c42432ec1b1b\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Panthers slammed over mass restings&#8230; but one great \u2018loves it\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cleary clarifies mass player resting | 10:25<\/p>\n<p>Fa\u2019asuamaleaui said Titans players weren\u2019t immune from scrutiny either.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said everyone from players to the top and bottom,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone needs to be looked at and made sure that they\u2019re held to account and really asked the right questions of why they\u2019re here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s players, myself, everyone included at this club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s been two people kept accountable, but no one else.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Titans captain Tino Fa\u2019asuamaleaui has launched an extraordinary attack on his club\u2019s management, believing others need to take&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":99413,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[63,689,7618,9124,72589,12729,33217,72586,72587,2105,2485,4612,43,5098,72590,72591,44,764,677,701,72588,4546,41,39,42,40,4515],"class_list":["post-99412","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-australia","tag-australia-and-new-zealand","tag-cameron-ciraldo","tag-chris-hyde","tag-cutting-ties","tag-daniel-ramus","tag-dressing-room","tag-extraordinary-attack","tag-extraordinary-spray","tag-getty-images-inc","tag-gold-coast","tag-gold-coast-titans","tag-headlines","tag-ivan-cleary","tag-justin-holbrook","tag-mass-restings","tag-news","tag-north-queensland-cowboys","tag-oceania","tag-queensland","tag-rising-stars-chasing","tag-stephen-crichton","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories","tag-wests-tigers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99412"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99412\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99413"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=99412"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=99412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
