News I'm all in': Barrett won't back out of Bulldogs deal

[blueyedsamurai]

Barrett would never pull out, Ghould cant even get it up.

 

[Bulldog Joe]

Good on Trent for reassuring us Bulldogs supporters!

 

[doggieaaron]

Poor gus not feeling relevant

 

[BaYry Ward]

This is more a reflection on the mess at the Dogs than Gus..

Gus has always been a Canterbury supporter and has advised many a young recruit to come to us, even when he was working for other clubs. In this instance he's just telling the truth.

It would pain him that the Dogs are in this mess.

Kudos to Barrett for displaying his commitment, that's a great sign.

 

[Bull Terrier]

Full credit to Baz, he is the only one I want to listen too. Good stuff mate

Only his Mrs can really answer that bro.

Media credibility has suffered terribly.
Fake news is rampant.
It’s all about the clicks and the bucks.
Take a deep breath and double check the source before being sure it’s true...

It's a war
The Daily Tel-a-crap vs The Sydney Morning Horseshit
The victims are Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs
The reason...A divided, short sighted & incompetent current & previous administrators
Mate I have news for you...Media credibility has been dead for a long long long time

Trent Barrett is adamant he is "100 per cent committed" to coaching Canterbury despite Phil Gould urging the incoming coach to reconsider due to political instability at the club.

The Bulldogs trumpeted the signing of Barrett as Dean Pay’s replacement until the end of 2023, but there are concerns that the former Manly coach could again be the victim of factionalism. Barrett left the Sea Eagles on bad terms and the opportunity at Canterbury could be his last as a head coach if he fails to perform.
Gould warned Barrett that the blue and whites had become a “toxic mess” and believes he would be better off remaining at Penrith as an assistant to Ivan Cleary.

However, Barrett said he will be at the helm of the "family club" next year.
"[I'm] One hundred per cent committed," Barrett told the Herald. "[Bulldogs CEO] Andrew Hill and the board have been nothing but supportive and very professional.

"I'm all in and looking forward to it."

Barrett's manager, Wayne Beavis, also reiterated that Barrett was "one million per cent" committed to the role.

“It’s never been an issue,” Beavis said.

Gould, however, warned Barrett that he was better off opting out of the Bulldogs job.
“I'm sure that Trent Barrett doesn't know what he's getting himself into and if I was associated with Trent Barrett in any way, shape or form I think I'd be advising him to reconsider his decision," Gould told Nine's 100% Footy.

"I just think this is going to deteriorate into a real mess in the coming weeks, and I just can't see a way out,” Gould said.

“I think it's just too much for him to take on at this time, given what happened to him at Manly, and given that his next NRL appointment is very, very important
He's in a really good club at the moment at the Panthers, he's got a great role and is doing a tremendous job. I'd be nearly inclined to decline it and go back to where he is and just wait a little bit more time because the Bulldogs is an absolute mess. Behind the scenes it is a toxic mess."
The relationship between Bulldogs chairman Lynne Anderson and Canterbury Leagues Club chairman George Coorey has deteriorated, sparking fears of unrest at Belmore. Coorey, 61, has been the subject of complaints by several women who have alleged he made inappropriate comments to them. Fellow board members have called for him to at least stand down while there is an inquiry, however his backers say he has nothing to answer for and have turned their anger towards Anderson, to whom the complaints were first made.

In a joint letter to members, Anderson and Hill said that leagues club funding had ceased providing the football club its monthly grants in March due to the coronavirus outbreak.

“It is fantastic to be able to report that the football club has come through an incredibly challenging COVID-19 period in a strong position, and are on target to post a healthy profit on our 2020 profit and loss,” Hill and Anderson said in the letter.

“In what has been a tough challenge for all businesses, we have managed to navigate the landscape through early action, careful planning and budgetary constraint to protect the long-term viability of the club.
“It needs to be stated that our monthly grant from the Canterbury League Club stopped in March by mutual decision. The League Club stopped trading at that point and had to undergo its own operational review.

“Both clubs have worked closely together through these challenging times, and are stronger for it. This meant that as a football club we have had to operate with no grant in recent months, so it is great to be able to report that we are on track for a surplus this year, despite the challenging situation we found ourselves in.”

Gould has an interest in the Panthers. His big concern is that Barrett might take some players with him; so he is bagging the Dogs to frighten those players off - he is not aiming at Barrett.

Have you noticed how the two medias have taken sides

 

[maroondog72]

Nice Trent, straight on the front foot and shut it down.
Maybe our administration could take a leaf out of your book and be more proactive with keeping members and fans informed about things that impact OUR club
PS sack lewis Ffs

 

[Chris Harding]

Can’t wait until Baz records his first win as a bulldogs coach in round 1 2021.

Sorry? Which year?

Just highlights the agendas as play. Media creating the news.

If Gus says he's been persecuted by Newscorpse for 23 years, sheet what chance Bulldogs.

Dont think so.

I acknowledge that, but calling an unproven coach a weapon...?

 

[Bulldogs09]

Next few announcements need to be b Smith, burton, Staines and hopefully Leniu. Any order will do!
