NRL Power Rankings: New face at top and, no, Bulldogs still aren't bottom of the barrel
The Warriors have twice as many wins and have nearly scored twice as many points as the Dogs, yet the Dogs are somehow ahead. And that is after the Dogs were beaten by double digits by the 14th ranked team, and the Warriors were beaten 2 points by the 8th ranked team
There is no credible analysis that has any team other then the Bulldogs ranked 16th

Success and over achieving at the lower grades and Super League is a better indicator then no experience or success
MICHAEL HAGAN: Why more than just a new coach is needed to fix Dogs' breakfast
He was horrid, but he’ll be an improvement
MICHAEL HAGAN: Why more than just a new coach is needed to fix Dogs' breakfast
You’d pay attention to Glory Bound before you pay attention to Tedeschi. Matt Johns pushed for Brennan at the Titans, not Gould. Gould advised Barrett not to take the Dogs job.

MICHAEL HAGAN: Why more than just a new coach is needed to fix Dogs' breakfast
Barrett gone is the first big positive for the club. Getting rid of Dan Ferris is the second big positive

'Very appealing': Why Mick O'Connor thinks fresh rugby raid makes sense, and the NRL players union should target
The claim has never been “third biggest sporting event held every 4 years”, the claim has always been “third biggest sporting event in the world”.
'Very appealing': Why Mick O'Connor thinks fresh rugby raid makes sense, and the NRL players union should target
At the time he was sitting across from one guy who got posted to England for 12 months because he was caught plagiarising other peoples work, another bloke who declared Barrett an “attacking genius” and said Barrett has a good relationship with the Trbojevic and they will likely sign with the Dogs if Barrett is coach, and the third just simply makes stuff up
NRL NEWS: Anasta accuses 'Pinocchio' Gus of lying, Cobbo in Maroons mix, knee injury sidelines NAS
It’s not, far from it. The Euros are far, far bigger for one, so is the Cricket WC and the Winter Olympics. The Rugby World Cup won’t even be a blip in Asia, the Americas and most of Europe.

“I was coached by him for four years – I was surprised he actually got the job at Penrith. The four years I was under him at Brisbane, I thought he was a reserve grade coach at best…. I don’t rate him as a good coach.”
Ben Hannant, Inside Sport, August 9 2018
Barrett's successor will need to tread warily unless Gus can clean up Bulldogs’ mess
It’s apparently bigger then the Euro’s, Champions League, F1, Tour de France, all tennis slams, all golf majors, winter Olympics, cricket world cup…

A club won’t pick Ciraldo, Ciraldo will pick the club. He will have the pick of the jobs that come calling
The “Shire coffee club” will push for one of their boys in Flanagan or Green, but the game may have moved on from their coaching styles. Whoever is willing to give Rothfield a sling for pushing their barrow will also get a strong push. It won’t be the first time
Ryles will get a mention, but he might be a year away from being ready.
Woolf has been the word all year, but the timing now might change that. Whoever it is will probably be named by the end of the month because they will want a name to place in front of potential recruits
Who's in the running to replace Barrett – and what do they need to fix first?
I’d say yes, he was consulted. I’d also say the sponsors were also consulted and their input was greater.
If you think the opinion of one coach, one CEO, one board member or one GM outweighs the opinion of the men supplying the money then I have a bridge I can sell you. Laundy and others spoke up
Barrett's successor will need to tread warily unless Gus can clean up Bulldogs’ mess
Last time I looked Gould isn’t a board member
Barrett's successor will need to tread warily unless Gus can clean up Bulldogs’ mess
Ciraldo will have the pick of any job that comes up. He’ll be an idiot to take the Dogs job
Woolf has been mentioned for a while
Barrett's successor will need to tread warily unless Gus can clean up Bulldogs’ mess
Ciraldo is unproven, yet has won a finals game as a coach, and lost to a Flanagan coached team by a point in another

Vaughan is an idiot, but journalists are overly precious
