Gleeson's team is sitting on top of the NBL ladder. I don't think he's doing too much wrong.

I can't fault his record as our coach, but I also can't deny his toolishness at times.

Yeah guy is a douche, he got VERY lucky to inherit a team that has James Ennis!!!!! Take him out of the equation, and Trev would have to coach not just manage....

He is not as bad as Aaron Fearne, sack his useless arse

Agreed, Fearne hasnt done enough with that Taipans team.

Inherited a team with Ennis? He recruited him! He's been one of the best coaches in the league for going on 10 years now. Best record ever in Ville and bettered previous season he coached in Melbourne which is all that could be expected with the organisation or lack there of. I don't understand the Gleeson haters. What's to hate about the guy? He's a passionate guy who loves the game.

I just don't understand how some of you people come up with this stuff. Honestly...

He is a passionate coach who is doing an awesome job with this team I thought he was good at Townsville when he was there. The haters are good for entertainment value! It will be Gleeson or Wright with championship at seasons end

Completely agree Anon, i dont get the Gleeson hate either. At worst, hes a colourful passionate coach that gets animated at times. Some people would call that entertainment, and its good for the league to have coaches like that!

At best hes a great recruiter, and a good manager of talented players, hence the strong winning record. I dont know but maybe hes a good coach as well?

Pretty sure all the coaches have a bit of Gleeson in them that you either love or hate. I guess that maybe he gets more attention because hes expected to deliver a championship and hasnt done so yet?

Yes perhaps. He's always over delivered with the teams he's coached and I think this year he has a great team of talent but has so far managed to bring out their best. Good luck to him.

Great job Gleeson we love you in perth, go get us a championship.

I like him. He's passionate and his team has lost just one game so far.

Coming into this season I figured him for a tool, but I haven't seen anything so far this season to suggest that. The way he's coached his Perth players has been very positive, and his reactions to referee calls vs. Adelaide on Friday were mostly justified.

Shawn Dennis for 6th man award: he needs to learn to stop the constant bitching to the refs.

Shawn Dennis for 6th man? Not sure I understand that joke.

Trev is spreading his minutes different to what Bevo was doing and Bevo may have over rotated with only Lisch getting over 30 minutes/game last season.

I'd like to see Damo get a bit more time on the bench but I can't fault Trev for saying "I just can't take him off". Interested that Wagstaff only played 10 minutes vs. 36ers. On one hand that seems like a bit of an error but when Redhage torches for 30; it's probably the right move

All the best to you Trev and looking forward to seeing you lift that big beautiful shiny trophy in April (I think it is)

Yeah, Gleeson was riding Redhage's hot hand and you can't really blame him.

Good to see Redhage and Wagstaff play the 4 & 5 yesterday at times. It worked well before Knight returned so I was hoping it would still be used. Creates a mismatch that works in our favour.

"Jackie" Gleeson continually bitches to the refs, but he is cunning, he generally picks the junior or rookie ref and by the end of the night is rewarded for his effort by getting the dubious or phantom calls. I know that the retort will be "good on him" but this also happened with Brian Gorgian, when his scragging tactics were called and the result was unattractive basketball which almost the deathnell to the NBL.

The number of times he claimed that his players standing straight up after a foul was called was ridiculous. His constant carping is a great help for "Cheapshot Shawn".

Good on him.

Good on him

Are you serious? I'd hardly call the wildcats a boring team to watch under the tutelage of Trev, yesterday's game didn't bore me and regardless of the scoreboard there was always plenty happening unlike the Bevo years where you could go a quarter without much of a highlight (I'm not hating on the legend that is Bevo but the games could/would stagnate for periods of time)

Sorry you said unattractive

I have never said that any Wildcat/36er game was unattractive. My point was the constant bitching to the refs results in poor decisions being made that are a detriment to the game and the reference to the Gorgian style of play which was allowed to develop and in my opinion nearly sank the NBL.

Although the NBL has tightened up the rules some players are still allowed the occasional hold and there has been a tendency to allow defenders to walk into or under players, usually with their hands almost vertical, causing turnovers. The non calls are in my opinion caused by the constant questioning of referees decisions.
