Resilience Lacking For Manly: Barrett

We keep blaming coaches , they move on, we stay the same
Im no data surgeon or math wizard but common denominators seem to be players
The common denominator is the coach persists with certain players and certain game plans .
We had Barrett
The We had the Mad Professor who was once a genius but he had lost the plot
Now we have Seibold .
Give us Bellamy , Bennet or Cleary and they give us a Different Manly

None of those coaches would persist with this roster. Be serious.

They would clear out half the roster within two seasons and maybe then they could work their magic.

I dont disagree with you. Those coaches would make a difference however our owner club and squad would not attract this tier

The reason i think the bennetts and bellamy are so successful is that player power will always come second to these coaches where in most clubs player power rules for a number of reasons. Payten already rumoured to have lost the players. They are woeful but his exit is looming. Not theres because of cap, freight payments and **** management

As it is reported, we are trying to tie up the 3 bros and dce to more long term deals. Any new coach would inherit this group as did the last, the one before

Its very difficult to move on lots of stars on big coin

I have labelled these guys manly coach killers so i do agrree

Des threw himself on a grenade for this team and they responded with meh….it happens and played like they did last

They would make a difference and that was my point feathered friend
Because they Inspire the resilient culture , select the necessary playing group , Get the most out of their players playing to their potential and playing to a consistent winnable game plan.

Love your footy views @jbb/james and how you express them. Different and interesting. Keep up the good work mate.
 
Sea Eagles coach Trent Barrett will be looking to build much-needed resilience in the coming weeks following his team's 36-22 drubbing at the hands of the Wests Tigers on Monday night.

While ill-discipline came in the form of eight penalties and 10 errors, Barrett said the Sea Eagles' inability to defend at crucial moments was their undoing.

In the end Manly had to defend almost 10 more sets than their opponents.

"I thought the longer the game went, the more confidence we would have got. We just didn't help ourselves throughout the game with fourth-tackle penalties – I think we had five of them," Barrett said.

"We compounded every penalty with an error. Twenty-two points should be enough to win. We know they're a good attacking side but we have some work to do in that area especially when it comes to being more resilient on our try-line."

With the game locked up at 16-all just after half-time the Sea Eagles failed to kick on from their mid-game efforts, despite Dylan Walker, Lewis Brown and Jorge Taufua helping the side to three consecutive tries.

In the end it was Kevin Naiqama and Man of the Match James Tedesco who would ruin the Sea Eagles' prospects by combining for four tries and three try assists between them.

It leaves Manly winless with the opening fortnight of the season now complete following their Round 1 28-6 capitulation against the Bulldogs.

"We were right in the game. I thought in patches we were a hell of a lot better than last week and then in other issues we let ourselves down again," Barrett said.

"Until we can get that 80 minutes of consistent footy and doing everything right, we're going to find ourselves in that position again. There were some good things there but there are certainly some things we need to address.

"We're all in it together and there's no easy fix. We just have to keep working hard."

Barrett refused to use the absence of veteran fullback Brett Stewart as an excuse either, with the former NSW and Australian custodian battling ongoing hamstring issues.

"[Stewart will] obviously make a huge difference to us with his leadership and his talk but certainly the loss wasn't through lack of personnel," Barrett said.

"We won't hide from what we did wrong. We just need to fix it."
Back when Tedesco was a Tiger. They really can’t keep any good players can they.
 
10 years of this crap, under 3 different coaches. The only difference is, now we make preseason videos bragging about our winning mentality.
