Griffin

[Cosmo24]

I don't even remember how Broncos and Panthers played when he was in charge but his win/loss ratio seems alright and his discipline and structure might be exactly what we need. I think its important we provide him with some quality assistants. I wonder if Cronk would be interested in an assistants position, he is the halves coach at the roosters now but we could be the step up he needs if he has aspirations of coaching full time.

Probably not while Uncle Nick covers his Harvard business degree or whatever dodgy shit he has done for him

Penrith was absolutely flying when he was in charge and in the top 4. He had them playing a very good brand of footy

[Dogs2004]

I for one wouldnt mind him tough as nails not scared to stick it to the refs media etc I'm sick of hearing dean pay is nice guy that's all good and well and was probaly deanos biggest downfall I cant recall press confrence where he lost his shit theres got to be an investigation...

Griffin with Barrett as assistant would be good

Why would Barrett leave an assistant role at Penrith for one at Canterbury?

 

[D- voice]

Anyone think maybe the Andersons are coming in for pay back for sacking Kevin Moore ? Cause as soon as Moore was done it was hasler. Personal vendettas.. Lynne is Chris’s brother

Did you know
Canterbury's previous board rejected Bennett to sign Kevin Moore !
What do you think of it ?

Because he is an assistant..

Not sure if Griffin is a championship coach. But is definitely the best rebuild coach around at the moment. Might not win the title but will definitely get you close.

I’d feel ok with him as our coach for the next 3 years. Would still rather Bennett or bellemy but we know they wouldn’t come. Barrett shouldn’t be the be all end all. Hasn’t done enough to be the lock and hope he isn’t.

I think Nathan Brown fits that category too! Let's see how it pans out!

Lol

Well, Gus thought Barrett was a good coach.
I don't think Barrett is that bad. He is/was on the NSW coaching staff for a reason...

Anyway....

Given the rebuild he engineered at the Knights, Nathan Brown as GM of Football would be a great fit...

Gus is a fat fuck with a good footy brain who is thinking down stream about the stable he will manage as a football manager..

hahaha Please God, if Barrett is made coach please please make Brown the Football manager the following week. His boss...

 

[steeliz]

why would Barrett leave the panthers as an assistant with that squad to come to our club as an assistant?

The Challenge.

Why play it safe as an assistant for the rest of his career.

Brown fostered a shit culture with the players at Newcastle, it was why he got sacked.

We don't need that.

As soon as he cops and L and fucks up he he gets called into the bosses office for a slap

I agree Griffin is the better option and a 55% record over 170 plus games is a proven record. He's also done well rebuilding teams.

My only issues with him are he has no personality (Hook makes Folkes, Moore, Des and Pay look like the cast of SNL) he's a hardass which is a good thing short term but the players tune him out after a while...

He's also a defensive coach and not great tactically and it would be nice to have an attacking coach after ten years of Desball.

They seem pretty far down the road with Barrett though so we'll see what happens.

Again, Trent won’t be giving Brownie any “cheek”
Would be a “slap in the face” for Trent
