Don't want Barrett here at all, we won't improve under him.

He took over from Toovey at Manly after he had them in the finals and was sacked after just missing out in his last year.
Barrett did ok to start but almost got the wooden spoon which I don't think has ever happened at Manly.

He may of blooded the Turbo boys but whoever was the coach would have, they bleed Manly.

Is Brian Smith still around, he seems to do well at rebuilds.

He
correct me if im wrong, but didn't Barrett blood the turbo bothers, and didn't Barrett build the current squad that DES took over. So its barretts team that's excelling at Manly not Des team...
he came after des fucked Them
And bob fulton and barrett fixed manlys cap and they flicked barrett to bring in des again who fucked manly back in 12 with his back ended contracts manly will be in shit again soon enough

If Barrett is the target to help give us an edge in recruiting Penrith players then I'm all for it.

Very strong rumours he is signed and sealed but won’t announce it till later. Take it with a pinch of salt as I’m sick to death of so many rumours but if this is true then fuck me. We sign a average coach with an average coach. This board are totally fucked

How about the England coach with Barrett (backs) and Ennis (forwards) as assistant coaches ? Or get Walters with Barrett as assistant then we get some benefits in attracting both young Qld and Panthers players. I can't see Barrett as head coach given his record with Manly.

Great idea. But Walters is definitely a attractive coach for players but Barrett’s known to have A ego too

No incentive for him to leave panthers for another assistant coach gig at other club

There's no point saying get this person or that person as an assistant, coaches will pretty much want to pick and choose most of it not all of their staff.

Barrett comes across as an Elliott type. The type that loves a drink and a dare. I'm sure he got done for stripping down to his jocks and did push ups in front patrons once upon his playing career lol.

It's wrong to give Barrett credit for the Turbo brothers when they are born and bread at Manly
Its also wrong comparing des recent success to barrets at manly. Lets see how des goes now with no t turbo in his prime at his disposal. Watch the losses start stacking up and des ball set in without his match winner.

I think Barrett better than pay, we just need a new face an fresh change. Can’t get any worse than pay an that’s a fact.!!!
