be honest Gus, u knew way before Trent stepped down
Gus is the best spin doctor in the game.
He’s definitely spinning stuff here but we’ll see in due course.
Proof that half back is still the most important position
7.9.1
@@rahmiozkan0316 I’d say 7, 1, 9. You can get by with a decent 9. Who just tackles and passes like Jason hethrington. But if your half can’t organise or kick in attack or if your fullback can’t organise in defence and be safe under the highball you’re pretty much stuffed. A great 9 can win you a comp. A basic one won’t cost you. But a great 7 or 1 wins comps and basic ones lose em.
@@troystaunton254 6 is very important aswell. They just as good as a quality half. But the most underrated position today is a good 11, 12 or a killer centre. Not just a high quality spine but a high quality back rower or centre also contributes alot to the team. They the ones who runs off the halves/fullbacks running lines and protecting the halves.
A Halfback ain't sheit with out his forward pack setting the platform
@@truthseeker7322 Doesn't help when the bulldogs forward pack gets exhausted after 10 minutes. Pangai Jr is a prime example of being lazy on big money
I think the bulldogs board should stand down as well. Not even Bellamy would get results coaching this team with no spine
He did nothing at Manly
They spent big money on Pangai Jr who gets tired after 10 minutes of play. Burton is a talented player but without a decent halfback or general on the field you won't get any results
@MrBoon Not saying Flanagan is bad but he didn't do any preseason training with them. Also with how much they recruited they desperately needed an experienced halfback.
@MrBoon mate if you think it’s as simple as there poorly coached you are delusional. They don’t have the cattle there to start with . Gus is a complete muppet who is not relevant in todays game hasn’t been for 20 year . And the board needs to go and a complete overhaul
@@danielkelly4487
You’re the muppet!
Gus not relevant… lmao. Tell that to the Penrith Panthers. He got a struggling club back on track.
Trent Barrett is officially the equal worst coach in Canterbury's history with a win percentage of 12.5%. Tedda Courtney Canterbury's inaugural head coach in 1935 had the same win percentage however Barrett coached more games
Yes Trent can’t coach I remember when he coach st George a tough team in those days under Trent miss the finals lmaooo
Wherever Gus goes there's a shafting to follow.
You've gotta take out the trash at some point
Penrith is going alright...
When changes need to happen someone has to implement them.
No change = same results.
Being a Bulldogs fan i think the time is now to hibernate for 12 months. I wont set a alarm so if i oversleep by a bit it wont be a big deal. Maybe Trent should of slapped some of his players in the face. It couldn't of made things worse. I could do a list. Maybe start at No1. Probably dont slap Tevita:)
Lol
One thing is certain in life - nothing sticks to Gus. If a team is under-performing he is never to blame in any way. He endures through occasional solid decision-making, wolf-like survival instincts, an excellent understanding of the media and force of personality. For most people in the NRL Gus' public persona is just too big of an obstacle to overcome and they visibly shrink in his presence. But those who see through his performance and refuse to be bullied often prove him completely wrong. Cleary cut him down above the knees and seems far better off now than when he worked with Gus.
There’s this thing about Gus,he is not what you see,you can pick it up in different circles.
What's your point.?
My dad said to me recently when discussing teams that were struggling and whether or not this
or that coach was any good and he said " there are a lot of good assistant coaches out there as well as assistant administrators, but that doesn't mean they are going to handle the top job as successfully". I believe he is right as I believe Adam Obrien at the Knights could be thrown into the same basket as Trent Barret.
its often more than just the coach, coach usually bears the bulk of the blame but everyone else working at a club has much more influence than many realize.
Started coaching league at 20 after playing for over ten years, now 41. The biggest difference between playing and coaching is as coach you’ll often get all the criticism when you’re running cold but none of the credit when you’re firing on all cylinders (the players will get the bulk of that).
What helped me weather it was putting aside the emotion behind that dynamic and focusing on my own coaching mantra:
1. Always be the most prepared.
2. Improve the individual so the he can improve the team.
3. Make them beat us (do not beat ourselves.)
If I felt like the wheels were wobbling I could almost always notice I was lacking in one of those three areas.
Adam O'Brien seems to be doing fine.
@@madlad8629now........ that Ponga decided that the team comes first not himself! Also Obriens body language (especially in the box during games) and his speech ( lost meandering tone) when interviewed expresses lack of confidence and direction. I would not feel inspired as a player by listening to him if he was my coach.
It only had 1 possible outcome Trent never should have accepted, should have stayed in penrith
He's an assistant coach, did well at the panthers but he aint a head coach
You can't expect to get a bunch of superstar players to gel straight away
Old matey sitting in the middle has gel'd hes hair the wrong way....was doin me head in
Barrett should have stayed at the Panthers and finished his apprenticeship accordingly.
Please. I have an old hat rack that could coach that panthers roster
Gus is good at explaining why he needs to be paid
Gus should win Academy award for his acting
winning is a mentality you have to believe that you are going to win and play within the rules of the game you know
I would like to see toovey to be the new coach for the dogs.
i would like to see that, the only thing is that is he a " long term" coach if i was to i guess critical about their next coach, i think this clubs needs a different type of coach that can get the best out of this squad and also build this team fo 5 -10 years and thats why id go for flanno because not only he can get the best out of the players that are there but can also bring and develop the younger players like he did with holmes, jack bird, both of the braileys etc
It’s amazing how NRL360 have spun this because Gus called them all flogs (which they are) 😂😂
Legit. It’s embarrassing how obsessed they are with him. When gus/penrith fired Hook 360 blamed Gus said he had ruined penrith but it was due to Gus we were in a position to win the premiership. They absolutely can’t stand that he is successful lol. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t agree with all Gus thinks or does but he runs rings around 360 lol
Barrett seemed like a nice enough bloke but maybe too nice
That’s what I think. He’s too nice.
Naeden and duffty should have stood down first!!
Naden off to the tigers
We spoke about this tonight on stream ourselves. He's not meant for head coaching. Maybe an assistant. A lot of people think he quit because he was getting sacked anyway.
Gus is not being honest. The truth is Trent had a gun to his head. Either he resigned or he'd be sacked. This way he could have an exit with his dignity intact.
When Bulldogs beat Roosters, they went 2-6 and had 4 winnable games next 4, Raiders (Lost 14-4), Knights (Lost 16-6), Tigers and Dragons so leaks from the inner circle say there was a buzz around the joint after that Roosters game thinking they could get on a roll but lost the next two in bludger of games.
Believe Gus’s or not look at his record with coaches????
I bloody love Gus!
He did amazing work at Penrith.
I take it you can't tell when hes telling fibs...
Gus is the worst liar. Anyone and I mean anyone believes Trent said he didn't have answers and resigned is lost.
He was given the chance to resigned before being sacked. He was given a $500,000 payout.
For a coach to say they have no answer's is a death sentence for any possible future role as a head coach. Any role that becomes available only doe's so due to the team going poorly. So how would one get a job if one says they have no answers?
At this point based on the track record, would have to assume about 20% of what comes out of guses mouth is true
Gus is not being honest. The truth is Trent had a gun to his head. Either he resigned or he'd be sacked. This way he could have an exit with his dignity intact.
Get Geoff Toovey always play and coach with his heart on his sleeve
Dude would have a heart attack 😂. But I do agree. The guy is bloody passionate.
Fascinating. Gus very raw.
When Gould comes in to a club, check the coach's back. Barrett has been betrayed, just lime several coaches before him. The fact is that the Dogs next year, when the new signings turn up, will be a different proposition. No thanks to Gould.
Hard to say if true but there is history.
tell me Barrett was doing a good job with a straight face.
barrett is an assistant coach at best, hes not a head coach at all and his record proves it
that's what they said last year with the signings this year.... 5 from 34 .... 15% win ratio hmmmmm
Gus is Pinocchio , You can guarantee that Pinocchio is behind it all, the sooner he is gone from the Nrl the better it will be for all
Pfff get off the pipe mate.
I guess Dean Pay was seen as an Eels man because nobody protected him either.
Some NRL clubs can be VICIOUS to their coaches, can't they? 😞
Interesting comment that for 2024 Doggies only have 5 or 6 current players signed.
Guess from now on Dolphins and Doggies will be fighting over off contract players and likely some still with contracts.There is also talk of a new club in 2025 who will obviously come into the player market = good time to be a player .
I would bet my bottom dollar Bennett has already "sounded out" Matt Burton.
Gus acting like he had nothing to do with it in one sentence but then saying he pretty much runs the show in another doesn't align one bit. At least own up to being disloyal and being a shark in the fish tank!
Oh, I bet Gus is a nightmare to work for.
Took a chunk of change off the Warriors...to do what?
Def pushed he recieved a whopping settlement ummm sorry if you quit your job do you get a hansome settlement...no only happens when your sacked before your contract is finished
Jumped before pushed
Yep
That will be the end of his coaching career.
No disrespect Trent was a good player in his time. But some ex players haven't got what it takes to coach. Also some of the Canterbury players need to man up.
What the hell was Josh Jackson on when he said Barrett was the best coach he has played under .
Lol You can tell a liar because they just keep talking 🤥
Mate he talks for a living! You want him to sit and sob?
Unfortunately, there I a stench of dishonesty when just a few weeks prior to his leaving, Gus Gould said that Trent Barrett would be the coach of the Bulldogs long after Gus left.
When he looked right down the camera and said, "I don't give a damn." To all the haters... hahaha brilliant
But seriously the board and inner workings of Cantebury should be held accountable. It seems to me that there are too many cooks in the kitchen. Hence the new General Manager to fix it.
InGusWeTrust
Pinocchio 🤣
to be fair the team that doggies have had since he's been coach cant compete player for player with any team. i understand the losses are bad but he would of known taking the roll as coach its not gonna be a year rurn around. feel like they need a long term game plan for atleast the next five years
It's sad that the coach next year will inherit the roster and potential success that the previous 3-4 coaches DESERVED.
Dean pay did way more with less
Based on the press conference yesterday and this as well, it sounds as though Kikau an Mahoney do have clauses that Trent would be the coach. It makes sense when signing a contract that you would like to know who would be coaching you.
there were no such clauses
2 years on. 100% fixer. What a brain for league. Thanks Gus.
The Dogs should try Shane Flanagan. He played his junior footy as a canterbury junior
Gus is such a B.S artist, blocks twitter followers like he sacks coaches
Lost a lot of respect for Gus from this saga. Anyone who believes Barrett wasn't told to resign or he would be sacked is not paying any attention.
That's exactly right and it would've been Gus who delivered the news.
Gus may well have made the decision for Barrett to go and is talking up Barrett to give him an honourable exit and take the media heat off the club at the same time.
Seems like a good way to handle the situation, even if it's economical with the truth.
Maybe the board and Gus should go???
Love or hate Gus he is a f**king master mind!
Wasnt Gibson that said, the problem lies upstairs, but the problem isn't Gus is it.?????
Coaching isn’t just about game strategy but connecting with all your players. I don’t think Barrett connected.
In Europe ,the board and owner would be protested ,,that’s where it all starts
Gus Gould is a conman, the biggest opportunist in rugby league.
You cant blame the coach when you have trash players...
He brought in those "trash players"
Let’s hear it from Barrett not anyone else
They can't just blame the coach, blame the players bcus the players are not playing well and its not the coach's fault
I’m a big fan of Gus, he’s the best football brain be far and wide , there’s more to everything he says and thinks very deep what he says 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
You need to sign a young centre or atleast bring him in the system who is in your pathways program Montel Lisala
8/55 the bulldogs
Lmao
Never seen left or right hand pass like Trent.
Excellent, honest, believable and interesting
Gus couldn't lie straight in bed! Of course he was pushed
Right on. Was hearing he was a dead duck for a week. Gus with his hand on the knife again.
There's always 2 sides to every story !
No 3 sides,Gus's side,Trent's side and the truth
what more can Gus say everyone is entitled to an opinion think before you say something
my thoughts only ,, too many egos at the Dogs ??
I have no trust in Gould at thus point. I believe Gould showed Barrett the door and is saving face by telling the truth
Gus is not being honest. The truth is Trent had a gun to his head. Either he resigned or he'd be sacked. This way he could have an exit with his dignity intact.
Now Laundy is demanding answers.
I'm a life-long Dragons fan, so feel for Barrett and what he must be going through right now.
I also have the deepest respect for Gould. He suggested Barrett not take his last couple of roles, and now the writing is on the wall.
Barrett needs time away from the first grade NRL. He may find a better fit overseas? I wish him all the best.
M 🦘🏏😎
He did it for the 💸💰 , now his set for life and will enjoy a holiday on Seibolds yacht.
wish hed return to Dragons also! as assistant to Flannagan I want HOOK HOOKED!
Gould is only in it for himself and will take anyone down to get his way.
Has plenty of form for this.
Thinks he is bigger than the game
Wouldn't trust Gus as far as i could kick him
Anyone pick up on James Bracey asking Michael @ 1.42 “We’re you expecting Trent Barrett to be sacked as Bulldogs coach”
I thought he resigned? Lol idgaf just happy Trents in the bin 😂
backstabbers can have the club
All tradesman aren't of the same calibre.
So let me get this straight. People are blaming Gus because a coach with a 12.5% win percentage is now jobless. Regardless of whether Gus caused this or not, its a good thing. TB was incompetent, incompetent people need to leave.
So what has Gus done in the last 12 months. A two minute explanation that can be summed up with one word. 'Nothing'
and if you believe that you've gotta ask yourself a lot of questions
Gifty stewart to coach!
Hope the doggies don’t look to Super League for a replacement.(St.Helens fan)
There are quite a few anomalies here. Gus seems to have had no power to save Trent yet implies he will be the one making the decision on the new coach. How does that work? Also the softest interview I’ve ever seen courtesy of Nine. Trent is better off out of there. Go to a club that values openness, honesty and respect.
Gus is not being honest. The truth is Trent had a gun to his head. Either he resigned or he'd be sacked. This way he could have an exit with his dignity intact.
He should of been a politician.Turns talking b/s into an art form.
inside truth 😂 bull💩
Why is Gus so obsessed with trying to make people think that he knows everything before everyone else, if you know what I mean
Trent has been used as a scapegoat for the most atrocious roster in the NRL.
Gus states the odvious.and hes called a guru?
Gus is so full of it. He said Barrett would be there way after he was gone 2 weeks ago, and now Barrett is gone and he's still there. Barrett was forced to resign or he'd be fired. He was given a golden handshake to go quietly and to make no fuss. If you want to fix the Bulldogs get rid of Gus. Panthers did and look where they are now.
Gus has been there for like a season. You are crazy if you think he’s a problem there. If anything, he’s their only hope. Gus implemented a lot of penriths youth football focus and player management, those things take time so it’s actually fair to say Gus deserves a lot to credit for where Penrith are at now.
@@haydnfurness5067 💯 %
Dean Pay got way more out of way less talent.
I don’t think he a good Head coach I think he’s more assistant head coach or a half coach
Pinnochio gould
Fool Gould
i think the bulldogs need to be a dictatorship not a democracy
doesn't Gus have same manager as Barrett, Gus is acting,
Look out England Eddie Jones maybe 😜
He don't have any experience in coaching field so it's good they sacked him.
He got pushed
You can be a good player but simply can’t coach 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Gus will always be Gus...don't be fooled🤣🤣
Woolff
What’s the bet they get a new coach and still
Lose games.. all for nothing!
Fool Gould
If ya undies keep getting moist change it
So Gus is over here explaining things while the clowns at Fox are slagging off Gus.
Gus is a muppet if you believe him you are delusional wake up
