Hasler is set to meet with the board on Friday to determine his future and review his performance.

Hasler is contracted until the end of 2017 but may walk away from Belmore if his $1.2 million contract for next season can be paid out.

Either way, Mortimer, who won four premierships with Canterbury and is currently head of the football and leagues clubs, does not want Hasler at the club beyond 2017.

“As a director I will go the best way I can in supporting (whatever decision is made),” Mortimer told the Daily Telegraph.

“But if I had to be asked to renew the new two-year contract I would say, ‘I am sorry, I will have to walk away’.

“I spoke at the last directors’ meeting.

“Des Hasler was there. I got some things off my chest. Maybe I said too much but irrespective of that. I was at the meeting, Des was there also.

“Des came up and said stats about this and all that sort of stuff.

“I did say the last game we played, the first half was pretty good, but at the end of the game I saw 13 players playing individually.

“There was no passion. There was no helping each other in that second half. And I complained.”

Hasler has coached the Bulldogs to two grand finals during his five years at the club.

The club has made the finals every year of his tenure.

Hasler won four premierships with Manly. Two as a player and two as coach.
