Scott Penn - Sign Trent Barrett Already FFS !!

[Ryan]

Honestly, get it done. What else do you ****ing want from the guy?

 

[The Who]

A premiership?
It is a results-driven business, you know.

Better sack Bennett, Robinson, Arthur, Flanagan then.

I could live with a repeat of 2011
Manly win the comp and T-Baz Does a runner to Canterbury for the money.

 

[Chip and Chase]

He's signed till the end of next year isn't he ?? Let's see what he delivers in this finals series before we get too carried away

 

[EagleFlys]

If the dogs want him to replace $es, they have the scratch to do it.
We take what we can afford, and what we can get. If they are letting him go for the $'s, I wouldn't $tand in his way.

He has done well to get the team where they are, but then again 7 other coaches did as well.

 

[Wombat64]

Does anyone know what @strone thinks about this?

 

[Ryan]

Fact that we made the finals with Stewart, Matai and Taufua out for pretty much the year heralds just making the finals a godsend.

He had a very rocky start to his career in 2016 but you can see the improvement this year and its not just where we finished either! Take into account Uate's return to form, the second row combo of Siro and Frankie, Siro's form or rather his game again showing the promise he has always had and selecting DCE as captain (I think a masterstroke and his form and team buy in shows the same) to name but a few. Throw in the evolution (or revolution?) of the Turbo's, the grunt of Kapow and AFB, the dynamic Api (now proven talent) and Blake Green's value to the team has been huge, especially DCE.

I think he will continue to grow/improve as a coach and I am glad we have him!

And un- believable as it is MYLES!

 

[sheridanstand78]

It is easy to say "get it done!" The club has apparently offered him a new contract and so far he has not signed on. I expect he, first of all, wants to focus on getting the team ready for the finals and get us deep into the finals as well. I also suspect the delay is that like the world, we await with baited breath about this salary cap investigation, whether there will be any charge? and if so what will the penalty be? This will be resolved one way or another soon.

DCE gets what DCE wants.

No, what happens at Manly

Havent Robbo and Flanaghan won premierships?

I would guess that Baz is also stalling on a contract extension.

A good finals run or maybe more (the unthinkable perhaps) and his value sky rockets.

I think he is also waiting to see what happens at the Bulldogs. I'm sure he's been sounded out by some people over there if and when they can scrape Dessie's half rotting carcass out the building.

I also genuinely believe ex players always want to go back and coach at the clubs they played for, or have a connection to.
Show me 1 ex player who has had a LONG term successful coaching career at a club he didn't play for?

How far can we go back and what constitutes a long coaching career in that question of yours on ex players coaching other teams NL?
I can think of a couple but I'm going back.
