In the sheds after the 1996 Grand Final win with Tooves and Des.

You were saying?

Nah, that's just a grimace. Bozo's was getting impatient sitting around as he wanted to get the boys back out on the training paddock, not sitting around doing nothing!

TRENT BARRETT WANTS DRAGONS TOP JOB!!

I've got it on good authority that departing Manly Sea Eagles head coach Trent Barrett has express his interest and desire to coach the St George Illawarra Dragons from 2019.

It's really up to St George club now and what they do with current head coach Paul McGregor and if their happy with Trent Barrett being a potential replacement.

...
Thoughts especially Dragons fans?.

Response from Dragons fans ....

*Don’t hire that loser from top eight to bottom 4
*You’ve got to be joking
*I’d rather Russell Coight coach the Dragons.
* No No No Moove forward Not spiral backwards
*this would be a giggle
* NO, rubbish coach..
*No thanks no ex dragons players as coaches we need a proven coach
*Trent go to Penrith
* You would have to have rocks in your head to choose Barrett
*What’s Barrett done?! His team didn’t even qualify for the 8!
Haha Russell coight , atleast he'll get a handshake.

Jorge makes probably the third most metres after contact behind our starting props ffs

Yeah he drops bombs but he should be centre with Walker the other centre

He's never been put in the right position once

Back row or centre, wing is a poor position for him
Cherry, George can make good metres but you have to be more than that to be a 1st grade player especially these days. There are so many other players out there mate that play all over this guy. He's unreliable mate with a lot of other players in our side.He can play, but cant catch a ball mate. If you cant catch a ball from a standing position as i have seen 3 times this year then he should not be out there. Get someone who can.Many on this forum say that we should not tolerate mediocrity, well this is mediocrity mate. If he cant catch a ball on the wing god help him being at centre of any other position including first man receiver from dummy half. We are too fussy with our players and its either they can play or they cant. This is first grade for Manly we are talking about. I have said it before and i will say it again. If it is a duck and it quacks then its a duck.

We agree he can't catch, I'd rather put him somewhere where that doesn't matter so much than have that crucial 200m go to another team and run 850m up against ****ing Parker and ****ing Suli probably paired in the inside with some turnstile like Croker, Elgey or Dogko

I don't want that leg drive and hole hitting against us with increased zeal from being let go

Well the great Barrett sacking never happened, let’s not forget he’s actually still contracted for two more years!!

Whilst I think he will go anything can happen in this **** show!!

They can have him!
Chokers!
No good to us!
 
Thanks for the stats HM. They bear out our problem.
Parker = 2 tries from 13 appearances
Walker = 2 tries from 12 appearances
Tafua = 2 tries from 11 appearances
Suli = 1 try from 13 appearances

The best has been Kelly @ 7 from 22 matches, followed by Uate 5 - 15 and Matt Wright 4 - 12.

Terrible, terrible stats. That's where a lot of our problem lies . . plus our defence.
They are our only 2 issues. Nothing out wide at all and very poor attitude in defence. If we can find a couple wingers (maybe Anderson and T. Wright for some attack. And a specialist defencive coach and we will be ok

A fine whine

Manly are flying the team back from Brisbane on Sunday night, which will prevent a massive night on the drink after their final game against the Broncos.

The players are also supposed to be attending end-of-season reviews on Monday, conducted by none other than departing coach Trent Barrett. The Eagles dug in during the week and refused to sack him. They believe the dispute between Barrett and the club is all the coach’s doing; that he wanted to quit and not see out his deal so there is no reason to pay him out.

The matter has been poorly handled by Barrett, who has come across as a whinger. His complaints that he had to clean the gym and provide chairs were petty.

Barrett has a decent squad and facilities that even the players don’t criticise. Manly’s facilities are better than those at NRL powerhouse the Roosters and significantly better than those enjoyed by the Tigers, who managed to finish ahead of the Sea Eagles.

Barrett has fallen out with former Manly supremo Bob Fulton and denials of this are hogwash. Fulton’s close mate, Manly official Peter Peters, has been on radio saying as much. We are reliably informed Barrett barely communicates with the man who hired him.

Unfair to blame/attack Baz as he was promoted to his position by Bozo who over estimated his expertise.:wait:

Manly should concentrate on the future as the Media attacks on their Staff is unseemly :tmi:
