[Resurrected] Lol @ Dogs

When Barrett gave 12 months notice halfway though the season I drew a line through his name.

Barrett Bad.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I supported Barrett as Manly coach and wanted him to succeed.
However the manner of his exit disappointed me. 'Significantly'. To the point it would now give me pleasure to see him fail.
To be clear, I'm not assuming he will fail, but I sure do want him to!

^^^^
This is my thoughts too

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

he is just an egotistical milestone around the neck of the club ..

That's almost the best I've seen here since we were introduced to that now-immortalised term, 'Ironstine' 🙂

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

In fact henceforth I shall only refer to Penn as that egotistical milestone

 

[mave]

Barrett is to coaching what the Bears were to Rugby League.

Has some potential, got supporters hopes up year after year, before ultimately failing, then invariably blaming everyone else.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Parramatta are the modern day version.

'Disappointing': Peponis blasts Bulldogs over axing of CEO Hill
​

By Christian Nicolussi SMH​

January 12, 2021 — 3.21pm
Canterbury legend George Peponis has taken aim at the Bulldogs for axing good friend and chief executive Andrew Hill at short notice.

The Sydney club, notorious for its boardroom dramas, is now without a CEO, head of football and head of commercial just two months out from the season.

Despite a club press release claiming Hill had resigned, Hill was told by chairman John Khoury late on Monday his services were no longer required. He inked an extension just last year and guided the club through one of its toughest periods in history.

Peponis has worked with Hill in the past, including at the 2017 World Cup, and was disappointed – yet hardly surprised – a good man had been let go by the so-called ‘‘Family Club’’.

Their team (and backline) next year will be outrageous !

01. Josh Addo-Carr
02. Nick Cotric
03.
04.
05. Jayden Okunbor
06. Matt Burton
07. Kyle Flannagan

And have to squeeze Will Hopoate, Corey Allan, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak, Christian Crichton, Jake Averillo & Tuipulotu Katoa in there somewhere?

There is drama behind the scenes at the Canterbury Bulldogs on the coaching staff that the great “Gus” Gould will need to sort out before the start of next season.

We are told from reliable sources that under-pressure head coach Trent Barrett and his assistant David Furner haven’t exactly jelled this season as a coaching partnership.

There is a bit of a blame game happening between the pair that many of the players are talking about.

While few expected they would be playing finals football this year, the Bulldogs have had a disgraceful season with two wins and 21 losses going into the final round against the Wests Tigers.

It’s a well known expression in rugby league - “the buck stops with the assistant coach”.

I can’t believe Furner is trying to pin their performance on Barrett.

They should sack Furner and bring in 2-3 replacements. Wayne Bennett and Trent Robinson would be a good start, and should ensure they don’t get the spoon next year. If they could get Craig Bellamy I think they’d be a serious threat to make the top 8.

Every member of the coaching staff should go except Barrett.
Head coach: Barrett
Assistants: Ennis and Flanagan.
Could be a dangerous set up though in regards to Burton / Barrett relationship in the long run though

Barrett Bad.

Amen. Barrett Bad.

As of today, Reuben Garrick has scored more points than the entire Bulldoggies squad this season.

Gold.

Anthony Mundine has put his hand up to join the Bulldogs as a consultant after Trent Barrett quit on Sunday.

Canterbury is on the hunt for a new coach just 10 rounds into the season after Barrett — who was contracted until the end of 2023 — walked away following a gut-wrenching loss to Newcastle in Brisbane on Friday night.

“It is just the beginning,” Kent said. “Their strength and conditioning coach, Dan Ferris has also been let go

Anthony Mundine

Wow , from the Penthouse to the ****house

Mundine would be better than Blue Steel.
