Yawn
truth and fact boring to you?Yawn
Im expecting this team to start showing improvement around rounds 10-12... If there is no chemistry or cohesion between the squad then there is a serious issue at hand.He had a good squad at Manly and they underperformed which led to his sacking.
His squad here isn’t crash hot but they’re definitely underperforming so far also.
I’m willing to give him a chance but will need to see sharp improvement. The performances to date have been the most uninspiring in our clubs history. Pitchforks will be out if we’re still trudging along in this fashion after 12 rounds.
I tend to agree the second half of the season should be a fair marking point,Im expecting this team to start showing improvement around rounds 10-12... If there is no chemistry or cohesion between the squad then there is a serious issue at hand.
Only thing that will save Barrett will be the signing of an additional players in required areas.
They were going through the same thing as us, yeah they had some decent players but overall an average squad that couldnt do much... even manly fans would agreeHe had a good squad at Manly and they underperformed which led to his sacking.

Quite the contrary. Manly fans are laughing at us for signing Barrett and thinking that he could be some kind of saviour.They were going through the same thing as us, yeah they had some decent players but overall an average squad that couldnt do much... even manly fans would agree
And none of that is unreasonable Horse. So let's wait and see how we look by then as we don't have a choice..He had a good squad at Manly and they underperformed which led to his sacking.

I don’t think the Manly fans are in any position to be laughing at TB signing! LolQuite the contrary. Manly fans are laughing at us for signing Barrett and thinking that he could be some kind of saviour.
Is this a joke? They just extended Haslers contract.. people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones....Quite the contrary. Manly fans are laughing at us for signing Barrett and thinking that he could be some kind of saviour.
By far the BEST POST I’ve seen you make on TK Alzz - I knew you had it in you!! I’m in shock, but kudos! .Everyone that thinks baz can’t coach, just remember the 2 clubs that hes been at officially as a head coach has been decimated by Des Hasler.
when he started at manly they were regressing badly and he managed to make 1 finals appearance and then it all went to shit and then he got punted. Now at the dogs we have only just started clearing out our deadwood after 3 years of doing nothing and wasting time caused by haslers back ended contracts, with 15 players off contract and he will get an opportunity to work with a team that he wants and will suit his coaching style.... this season is very crucial for Barrett and we haven’t seen his true potential at all yet cause he hasn’t really had the opportunity to work with a team he inherited..... all eyes on his recruiting this year.
The way the season is playing out indicates that refs calls and 6 agains at the right end of the tackle count serve to trump fitness. Quite obvious that our finishing has been crap. But that's been the case for almost every team when they lose this year. While almost every team on the winning end looks like a rep team playing against an under 6 team.The NRL have made the game faster and our our biggest problem is not just a lack of direction but one major problem is we lack match fitness and cant match it with the opposition. Seriously the 20k so called fitness Centre des made us build is it useful because its not showing on the field .
