St George Illawarra will cut ties with coach Anthony Griffin on Tuesday, reports Nine's Danny Weidler.Griffin, who is off contract at the end of this season was earlier this year told he would be forced to reapply for his job, with the Dragons going to market to look at other options.With his team in 16th spot on the ladder and coming off six straight losses, the club now looks to be out of patience, with a definitive call on Griffin to be made at a board meeting on Tuesday night, Weidler reports."I think it will be made official tomorrow, unless there is a sudden backflip by the board, it will be announced tomorrow that Anthony Griffin will no longer be the St George Illawarra coach," Weidler reported on 9News' 11.30am bulletin on Monday."It's not a huge surprise, he's just been hanging on for quite some time now and the Dragons realise it's their time to really try and get ahead for next year to find a new coach and also probably to start the whole recruitment process, so in a lot of ways it's a smart move to make the decision now by the Dragons board, but not a surprise to a lot of rugby league people."
