The Zoom call that put Barrett in the box seat for Bulldogs job | SMHsport

Veteran manager Wayne Beavis, who has represented Barrett, 42, since he was a teenage prodigy from Temora, was also on the line.

Barrett walked out of Manly in late 2018 following an irreparable fallout with club patriarch Bob Fulton. Those who remember those days ask this: if he couldn’t handle the drama at Brookvale how the hell will he handle the vipers’ nest at Belmore?Barrett learnt some brutal lessons from his three seasons at Manly and they can only help him with the considerable rebuild required at Canterbury.

But people like to talk on the northern beaches and the sight of him sharing a quiet midweek beer with his coaching staff at the Harbord Hotel quickly developed into damaging speculation that he was spending more time on the Golden Gatorades than game plans.Getty Images Chairman and co-owner Scott Penn lashed out publicly at Barrett, which led to a bizarre News Corp interview with the coach about having to buy garden furniture and lounges for the players’ common area. It was meant to illustrate the club's amateurism. Instead, it painted the picture of a losing coach shifting the blame.have legitimate gripes about the way Manly was being run, not least its revolving door of chief executives, football managers and recruitment officers.

There’s no doubting his influence on the Panthers and the way they attack. As per his contract, he won’t leave them mid-season even if he gets the Bulldogs job. Expect him to seek out a quality defensive coach and welfare manager while also entrusting senior players to help lead his team. At Manly, Barrett tried to shoulder too much and his coaching suffered.Perhaps his greatest task, though, isn’t so much surrounding himself with the right people but dealing with some of the personalities who are already there.
