Actually there was one new and very significant thing to read here, and this is the fact that he started work a week earlier then requested. This is massive!!! He could very easily have continued to enjoy a holiday with his family, especially after such a long and difficult year. But instead he was hard at work preparing and planning for another long season. Preparing to mKe us a force to be recconned with again!
This can not be understated imo, and it has not been mentioned until now. Obviously we all knew that he was at work yesterday, but i dont think any of us know that he wasnt actually due to report for work until next week.
WELL DONE BAZ!! YOU THE MAN!!!
Agreed mate, I actually thought it was know he was coming in a bit early, wasn’t that referenced a couple of weeks back?

Regardless, very good signs when you want to get stuck into your new role...

I cant say for sure, but regardless, it should be recognised.

I donated these DVD's to Trent as I've got these videos in the cloud anyway - but I took his plastic chairs from Crookvale as a security deposit anyway - when the Dogs are winning I'm expecting more company at my BBQ's to watch the Dogs. @Bazildog you up? :-).

Does a one legged duck swim in circles? Do bears shit in the woods? Is the Pope a Catholic? Is a frogs arse water tight? And more importantly, isn't beer proof that God (of your choice) loves us all...?

Yes.

Yes.
I’ll take that as a yes then :-).
You can have one of the better chairs (along with your lobster and Chardonnay) and someone less worthy can have one of Trent’s plastic chairs from Crookvale, considering DCE has probably sat on it before :fearscream:.

It's 2001 and the dragons captained by Trent Barrett have beaten Canterbury in a semi. The same man who captained that side is now coach of our side and carries the hopes of thousands of fans.. who would've thought
Yep, he figures we are his best chance of winning his 1st premiership as a coach of the Dogs as he never won one as a player. :grinning:

Same as David Furner who scored the first Raiders try in the 1994 GF after Bella knocked on the kick-off. You owe us boys :-).

Usually most of us have a favourite player to follow. Looks like I am going for Coach Baz.
His words are so encouraging which means heaps to our Club.

so many of us have just wanted our players to take some pride in the jersey they are wearing win, lose, or draw. Trent just keeps on surprising me with how much he understands what this club needs. You can't help but think things are really on the up. Keep going Trent.

The key thing is he’s going to get this roster into tip top shape so we can compete for the full 80

We will be stronger too with the new strength and conditioning coach.

It’s great to have a coach that doesn’t talk in riddles and can communicate and articulate himself clearly !

You get the sense this gig has been a bit of a dream for Trent for some time.
May he be the catalyst for change and a successful new direction for the club.
And they have been saying this is his last chance to be considered a real first grade head coach.
To me it feels like TBaz views this as his chance to build a legacy and add his name to the hallowed halls of Belmore.

The king is dead (Belamy) all hail the new king!
