If I recall, Barrett only took players that were considered excess to requirements last time. I'm nearly sure that Gus approved a few players to go, including Api. I doubt he would be back here otherwise.Don't know how reliable his news is.

He tried o fix Hasler's mess at Manly, now he's trying to fix Hasler's mess at the Dogs. Doesn't bode well! Deja Vu anyone?Strong word Barrett has signed a 3 year deal with the dogs.

If Barrett goes I hope Peter Wallace dosen't come back as assistant coach.
Far too inexperienced.
From what I'm reading it will be for 2021 onwards (if it happens)
He's been warned off taking any players Penrith want.
Barrett has promised to keep Penrith in the loop.
Looks like he will stay on for the remainder of the year.
According to Dean Ritchie in daily telegraph.
(Sorry but I'm not clever enough to share the story)
Unless there’s a binding agreement he won’t poach (not even sure how that’d work), I’d tell him to go now. The longer he stays, the more chance he has to build relationships with players.
The dogs are a team struggling in attack, who do you think they’re going to go after?
Not much on the market. Likely go to England for a ball playing fullback
Matt Burton, and Chritter.Unless there’s a binding agreement he won’t poach (not even sure how that’d work), I’d tell him to go now. The longer he stays, the more chance he has to build relationships with players.

He’ll go after Burton or Luai. He can talk to both after November. And he works with both of them closely at the panthers.
It worked out fine with Gus in charge. But normally I'd say Barrett owes us nothing and can go after whoever he likes. That includes Burton.
The Bulldogs have massive holes in their roster. Signing Burton would be a great start. I'd be looking for more starch in the forwards as well.
There is plenty of forwards on the market. Bromwich, Safiti etc
That doesn't solve the lack of point scoring though. So it is 3 year fix atleast
