Looks as though Trent Barrett has jumped before he was pushed.
It’s going to be interesting to see if and how the attack, in particular, changes upon his departure.

This is how it needed to happen. Glad he could read the writing in the wall.

The entire coaching roster including assistants and trainers should be tapped on the shoulder to say you’re not required beyond this season.

Bulldogs part ways with coach Trent Barrett
The Canterbury board finally lost patience with their coach after being condemned to last spot on the ladder with a demoralising loss during Magic Round.

Bulldogs coach Trent Barrett quits clubs amid horror star to 2022 NRL season
Canterbury coach Trent Barrett has fallen on his sword following a horror start to the 2022 season, on a shambolic day at the NRL club.
Bulldogs General Manager of Football Phil Gould has sensationally sent home the entire Canterbury playing group home from training after informing the roster Trent Barrett resigned from his position on Sunday night.
The club are preparing a media statement that will suggest training was cancelled due to a course of the flu running through the club.
But the rest of the playing group at training were left stunned when their schedule to prepare for Friday night’s clash against the Wests Tigers was abandoned.
Gould told the players to complete a weights session and head home. He also told them not to speak to the media.
The players were also given Tuesday off and told to return on Wednesday, leaving them just two training sessions to prepare for their clash with the Tigers on Friday night.
Barrett wasn’t at Belmore, granted leave to attend a funeral on Monday.
Earlier, players were dramatically hidden from the media as speculation increased Trent Barrett will be sacked imminently.
A planned Bulldogs media session for Monday morning was cancelled at the last second to shield players from being grilled over the unfolding Barrett drama.
Among the players due to be interviewed were skipper Josh Jackson and English international Luke Thompson.
But it’s believed Jackson will also be at the emergency board meeting, that is likely to determine Barrett’s fate, taking place on Monday morning.
Canterbury’s media department issued an email at 8.10am calling off the session set for 11.15am, revealing that all players were now off limits to the media.
The decision adds another layer of intrigue around Barrett’s coaching future.

It's very sad mate.
I understand he needed to go, and it's the correct decision.
But we shouldn't be jumping for joy because we are pretty much gonna start all over again.
The next coach will be copping it from us fans as well.

And entire coaching staff with em
Never a truer word spoken.
Attack is abysmal. Defence is questionable. Fitness is atrocious.
Barrett is the head of the snake so had to go. But this problem is a lot deeper then just the head coach.
I would have negotiated to keep him as an assistant. Guy isn’t cut out to be a head coach. Maybe if he works under an assistant for 5-10 years but at this stage in his life he isn’t built for it.
