big news that

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Parramatta, the cursed club, depending on what you think of Stuart (I don't rate him). How much of a rabble must the operators of that club be.

 

[Feej]

So he tears the place apart and then walks away *again*? That'll do me.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

Meh.

So he tears the place apart and then walks away *again*? That'll do me.

i was gonna say that...he's sacked half the playing staff then quits himself....bit wrong that

 

[Parra Pride]

f**k off Ricky.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

Canberra fans happy about this?

 

[BunniesMan]

Besides the Tigers (who actually seem to now have the seeds for a half decent future) the two clubs involved in this are the two biggest basketcases going around right now.

Parra is stuck at the bottom of the ladder, poor recruiting for 2014 suggests they are going no where fast. Now Ricky after giving them a record extending spoon leaves for big money.

And Canberra, where do you start here. Since the start of the season they've lost two of their biggest talents in Dugan and Ferguson. Milford looks to be following them out. Now they get a coach who is fresh off yet another disaster.

This right here is the 2014 spoon race.

the player movement will be interesting :

which players follow him, leave the Eels for another club ( not Raiders ), leave the Raiders or go to the Eels

 

[The Great Dane]

Well that sucks, if it's true.

Could be a lot worse though and at least that's out of the way and we can start focusing on other things now, like retaining Milford and desperately searching for a quality hooker (hopefully Ricky still has his eyes on Roby).

 

[Eelementary]

"I'm in (but only until a better offer comes along) - are you?"

f**king tool.

 

[Patorick]

Adds another layer to that presser on Sunday.

 

[VictorTheViking]

Hopefully he demands the appropriate funds to give the team a kick in the arse and bring it into the 21st century

 

[Y2Eel]

Thank f**k!!!!!

I supported him after he came out and said we would be flogged a few times this year, I thought its a smoke screen not over hyping the players ect..
You think even with average players he would stiffen up the defence but no..

Then he sacks 12 players in front of their peers..

Well good luck now we can start moving forward get Jason Taylor in seven years late...

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

Surely the tiny shred of credibility Ricky still had is gone now?

Douche bag of the highest order.

 

[The Great Dane]

This right here is the 2014 spoon race.

Some how I think you'll regret saying that after we go on a miracle run half way through the season and barely scrape into the finals.

Every second year...

 

[Newcastlerabbit]

My condolences to the Canberra club.

 

[BranVan3000]

Great, now he is ruining two squads

 

[Eelementary]

What a gutless prick - he sacks half the squad (admittedly, a lot of them needed to go), and then does this whole inspirational, "I'm in - are you?", and then leaves at the drop of a hat.
