[Papa Joe]

Can somebody with access please post this story from the Telegraph?

Two internationals, one Dally M Medal winner, the Tongan assistant Test coach and an ex-Manly and Cronulla coaching staff member.
Canterbury’s coaching team for next season is nearly complete.

News Corp Australia can reveal Sharks assistant Craig Sandercock – who worked with Barrett at Manly – has signed a three-deal deal as a Bulldogs assistant coach.

North Queensland’s David Tangata-Toa – the Tongan assistant - has become a leading contender to join former Test star Barrett’s coaching staff as a development, pathways and transitional coaching assistant.

While no deal has been announced, Newcastle assistant and former Australian forward David Furner is expected to be appointed lead assistant coach at Canterbury.

And completing the coaching roster at Belmore is former Wests Tigers head coach Mick Potter.

Potter will coach Mounties next season – Canterbury’s feeder club - in the Canterbury Cup. He is a former Bulldogs’ premiership-winning fullback who also claimed the Dally M Medal while playing at Belmore in the mid-1980s.
The Barrett-Furner-Potter-Sandercock-Tangata-Toa coaching roster has Canterbury fans confident of immediate success next season.

Sandercock’s appointment on Tuesday clearly shows Barrett has no plans to walk away from Canterbury – as had been suggested by former coach Phil Gould – due to boardroom issues.
Tangata-Toa is the Tonga assistant coach and a former lower grade at St George and Cronulla. He played his first grade football with English clubs Hull Kingston Rovers and Celtic Crusaders.
Some are suggesting Tangata-Toa’s deal would also span three-years once finalised. He is currently helping interim Josh Hannay coach North Queensland after Paul Green left the club mid-season.

Knights assistant David Furner is the last piece of Barrett’s puzzle. Picture: Mark Kolbe/Getty
Furner – a former Kangaroo second-rower - was among the final three candidates for the St George Illawarra job which was handed to Anthony Griffin.
Barrett supported Furner’s pitch for the Dragons job. Furner wants a return to Sydney for family reasons. He has enjoyed success at every club he has coached.
Sandercock is Cronulla’s defensive coach but may be asked to oversee attack at Canterbury.

That sounds like a fruit shop employee list, not a powerhouse NRL club coaching team.

Said his last crew's issue was that it had too many similar people, then goes to hire his twin brother #sackbaz

Anytime you sign someone in Mgt or in this case as a head coach they must come in with their own set goals and their own kpis for success, Barrett so far is ticking all the right boxes .. he contacts the players he wants to keep in his own time, he is getting rid of the dead wood, he comes out and declares he will NOT break his contract like someone advised him to do (Old man Gould) and now signing some coaches who can help him build a successful team on and off the field ...
I don't know about you all but I am starting to get excited and cannot wait until 2021 and beyond, things are finally looking good for a long long time!!!
Hopefully the final nail in the coffin Barrett announces some key signings such as Staines, Burton and Smith ... wishful thinking I know but one can hope right, so hopefully Xmas comes early for us this November? Go the DOGGIES!!!

Be better if he came out and told GUS to piss off and keep his opinion to himself haha

Never knew Furner had any success as a nrl coach. But it’s good to get some experience. Also big fan that an nrl coach with coaching premierships under his belt gets a shot with the reserves. Am sure the guys will be able to step up easier if called up to NRL.

I don’t know most of these coaches from a bar of soap. But good to hear we have a pathways and player development officer especially one that is polly. I feel some of the younger pups would need someone like that to look up to and hopefully it keeps them out of trouble and we might even get first bite at some of the younger islander/Tongan kids coming through if he has an affiliation with them.

Hope we get furnsey, my favourite non bulldog player of the 90”s, has a good aura also.
