Big news to break at Manly - Gus Gould

[SeaEagle21]

Good post ..... I have a gut feeling ... no info ..... that Baz will come out of this stronger ..... he may just be over some of the deadwood in the support staff and has told the club he wants them gone ....

Thanks Woodsie, mate i am just over the media with breaking stories left right and centre holding our heads under water not allowing us to breathe. I too think (gut feeling) that he will come out of it stronger with a strong core group of players. Everything Baz has said the club has mirrored.

Ppl saying Jake needs to grow up and be professional yadda yadda, Baz made the decision to drop Hastings not the other way around after ongoing issues. Jake is just supporting his coach and has openly said he loves playing for him yet ppl back Hastings.

The never ending threads on similar issues is exactly what the media wants and that’s to put doubt in Manly supporter minds and fuel th unrest. Getting rid of Baz ain’t the solution for fixing 2018.

What’s worse ppl happy with winning the spoon to force change.

All chess moves Budgie ..... it is Gus's way of putting pressure on Manly so that when Baz tells them what he wants changed .... they don't just give him lip service ....

Exactly

This is toatlly left field but if Baz does walk, what about Madge as coach. He's tough and respected, doesn't take sh^t and has runs on the board with a premiership? Plus he's been the refs coach of late so he'll know the ins and outs of how they operate.
Just putting it out there. Any thoughts?

Loobs remember in 16 we got Marty , Api , brown , walker, then a year later got lussick home just to name a few . We still had Stewart , matai and killer still on the books . Throw in the Myles fiasco , i can now see how we ended in ****. A big Fuhking mess.

Marty and Walker were both upgraded and extended after that. Api, Brown and Lussick are off the books at the end of the season and Greenturd has said we are under the cap now. I don't think it's the mess they are making it out to be - they are just piling on to try to continue the misery.

Manly won't pay out Baz for his 2 year extension plus put Madge on the payroll

Read between the lines. All that happened was they had a meeting to discuss whats going on. Barrett has said that he needs help and the Penns have provided it. All the rest is clickbait media dribble.

 

[HoldenV8]

SHUT UP GUS

Agreed, but good luck on that.

Gus wouldn't shut up if he had a roll of duct tap closing his mouth.

I would say that is exactly it stevo, just a worry that the powers to be arnt providing the framework to begin with. The Penns need to commit the funds and resources to run a professional club, not just a club.

In the clubs defence, the last two coaches have taken care of all of that. Des ran the lot and Tooves pretty much did to.

This weeks game could determine Barrett's coaching future

If we are smashed then I think that he will step down as coach and most likely not ask for a payout of his remaining contact
allowing us to appoint a new coach

Can not see him not asking for a pay out, he won't get another coaching job, so i think he might need the money..

Gonna be tough, as we know, these next 3 games we'd be down as rank outsiders.

Cannot see the Penns paying him out and their strategy may be to wait until he loses enough games to make him walk of his own accord

He will pick up an assistant coaching job somewhere Or shock horror he might even have to get a real job like us supporters do

 

[HoldenV8]

Barrett's a former Aussie international. Someone in the SL will probably think he's worth a shot. But I can't see him getting another NRL head coaching gig if he continues to have poor results at Manly, even given our current situation.

....It is known though that Barrett has no intention of quitting. He wants to fight the fight with his playing group, particularly the Trbojevic brothers, Jake and Tom......

Lol, Hooper is just a hack. He's too gutless to come on here and have a civil debate so he gets all upset about the truth bombs that keep landing on him regarding his ineptitude as a journalist and so he tries to hit back the only way he knows how.

Which is, of course, continuing not to have an original thought in his little brain and writing whatever his editor tells him.

As Kent, or some other 'jouno' alluded to earlier in the week, drama sells out of date mediums of communication newspapers. None of them have thick skins professionally but they must have some in their private lives as I would be totally embarrassed to face my loved ones each day if I put out the agenda driven drivel that they do. Some are born with no shame and delusions of grandeur though so it probably doesn't bother them.

Just don't click!

The Hooper super Dooper contradiction ....
"For now, the Sea Eagles are headstrong and focused on trying to get a win against the Sydney Roosters on Sunday."
This Hooper guy should be put on a leash
