Webster says: I had concerns about Trent Barrett taking the job because even by his own admission he never handled the politics at Manly. The politics at Manly aren't on the same page as the politics at Canterbury. They've been going on forever."
Gould said the only viable option for the club was to remove the board and senior administrators for a fresh start. The alternative is to persevere and risk completely crippling the franchise.
"I don't know what the answer is but I know, I just know the answer is not persevering with the people that are there," Gould said.
"They've got to understand that it's hurting the club. If you are a player looking to go and play with a club, how high on the list is the Bulldogs? Which means the ones you get access to are going to be way down the list, you're going to pay a premium for it, it's going to eat up your salary cap very quickly again and you're going to be no more competitive than you are this year.
"I just can't see it working until they resolve that mess behind the scenes. It's all got to be disbanded and someone else has got to be given a go at it because what they promised hasn't been delivered. At the moment, this is the problem with the Bulldogs. It's the toxicity, internally, at these levels."

Gus just telling it like it is, same as if a Kenneller got up at a meeting to have their say about the club they used to respect and saw being downgraded to insignificance
Things must change and wont unless drastic action taken ...it cant heal and move on until that happens.
