Congratulations Trent Barrett

[HappilyManly]

Barrett still can't coach

Hopefully will still get sacked or at least not extended beyond this season

Baz was signed for 3 years, so no matter what, he will be the Manly Coach in 2018.

We could win the comp and you'd still say the same thing.

You would still complain even if we are holding the trophy at seasons end. Do you actually support Manly?

I don't see that as a complaint ... but a reality - things have improved & we are only 5 rounds into the comp , so - there is still a long way to go.

If Barrett walked on water you'd be complaining that he couldn't swim.

WTF happened after the 1st two loses there must have been some sought of inspirational session.Would have loved to be a fly on the wall to hear what was said.Every player just found there true selves on the park it's bizzare.Surely barrett must have done his homework to well done.

Remember the dce interview after souths where he was laughing at the mention on Barrett being sacked. Media got stuck into him saying he didn't care blah blah blah. I took away from that interview the team was quite settled and not worried at all after the two losses and they just needed to get back to business. They have showed since then how solid they are as a group. Last night was a great team effort and what's more pleasing is how they celebrate after a try and win. This comes solely down to coaching and conradarie.
On a side point I have seen Blake green criticized early on and after souths game however I think hands down he has been our most important recruit. The pressure he has taken of dce is huge.

I'm late to the party (crook again). All the good stuff has already been said, so all I can say is...I love this farking team and this club. I couldn't be prouder !

Like others have said, there's still a long way to go. I've been critical of Barrett but the last 3 weeks have been a real eye opener. For the first time I have been hopeful for the season. Let's hope it continues and he can turn me all the way around.

For the record I still hate the Penn's. And Zorba. Nothing will ever change that that. And Bozo just a little bit.

 

[Harvies elbow]

Nothing for me to take back.

Any criticism from me was about the unjust sacking of a club legend.
Nonetheless that's done.
Other than question a few tactics, as is my right as a supporter, I could never bag a young bloke for uprooting his family and taking on a job like coaching Manly.
Question his sanity, yes.
No one could've had a tougher 1st year in a job than Baz had last year.
I love watching the team and the way they are playing both in attack and defence. He has instilled confidence in this team.
Whether we make the 8, and I think we will, it's good he's there next year because stability will add more to this ever impressing side.

I still think you have stupid hair and I'll never forget how he got here

Good job this season with your biggest winning streak so far

But no we've looked ****ing mental since round 3

 

[Sheikheagle]

Great presser from Trent developing the seige mentality well. Praising the blokes that nobody wanted. The players will go to war for him.

 

[swoop]

I've bagged him but it's all looking up at the moment. Maybe he was left to do his own thing while Bozo and Cleary were having their dispute. Seems to coincide with our winning streak.

Great defence and we finally look potent in attack as well. And Walker's goal kicking, much better.

Watch the replay or at least the last 5 minutes and you will get all the feel good hormones surging again

your right we are up there even leading some of the better stats like points scored tries and try assists and line breaks. These are very important stats and we are 5th for meters made. excellent work manly.. I said top 8 and most didn't agree especially the so called experts like Paul Kent the flop
