I've been genuinely perplexed at how they turned on a club stalwart and replaced him with this dope. It's like watching an animal chew off its own foot. As soc said, he was already a proven failure at lower levels.
Delighted as a Knights fan - if we must be shit, then at least Manly can be shit with us. Their pain eases my own.
Your joy is wasted on us anyway.I withdraw my joy for a Knights victory in the game thread then. =)
didn't know thatHis coaching days should have been over after he got the Panthers 20's gig the year after Brennan took them to a premiership. Missed the 8 the next year. Slotted him in favour of Cameron Ciraldo & surprise surprise, premiers again.
didn't know that
and they thought he could replace a premiership winning coach
so why did Gus rate him?What is even more baffling is the year he had the 20s job he didnt coach the whole season. I cant remember if it was Brennan had them flying for the first few rounds & Barrett came in and f**ked them, or Brennan came back at the end of the year and they finished with a string of wins. They did lose round 26 in an 8th place play off with the eventual premiers after the siren. Which makes me think Brennan was back by then. Either way, lo@Manly. I pissed myself laughing when they hired him, and havent stopped laughing since.
so why did Gus rate him?
