Rumours and Stuff

if parra don't get Bennett what other coach should we chase when BA gets the punt

Only man for the job

But it hasn’t really worked. That’s my point.

I am not sure where the reason lies for us not having the outside back depth we are all looking for. Is it in what BA has asked for, is it in MONs inability to secure it, is it in the salary cap limitations imposed by the Board/not having TPAs - there are lots of potential reasons and none of us are close enough to understand the real reason.

I remember exactly where I was when I saw that (at a gym in the UAE) and I still feel sick in the guts when I think about it. Poor bastard.

And the 3rd referee Scam Smith is still whinging it wasnt a penalty.

I also think Alex McKinnon getting injured destroyed that club on top of other issues.

But McKinnon got injured in Round 2 or 3 in 2014 the knights werent the same after that and Wayne knew it was best to get out.

i think little Wayne was the start of the issues in Newcastle

He is another overrated junior that can’t tackle. I once spoke to a coach and he advised me that their capability in defence is the first thing they look at. That’s why Hayne, Lyon and Dylan Brown made it and players like Kris Keating, Michael Witt and Docker Clay didn’t.

And he doesn't even do enough with the ball to make up for his putrid defence.

If he was a freak running the ball, or kicking, or passing, then you could make an argument to carry him in your side.

He scored a great try against Manly, by steamrolling Trbojevic, but that's pretty much all he's done.

I reckon we have over indexed on forwards.
Paid too much too for Moses guth and dylbro
AND been too difficult in negotiations...

Don’t agree re Moses.

I don’t want Maguire - but f**k it would be awesome to resurrect this post if we actually did get him and the bastard won us a comp!

imagine sticking your head in this conversation as an alleged tigers fan…

 

[King-Gutho94]

We’d be very brave, crazy, or desperate to try that.
He’d have to be just as brave, crazy, or desperate to try it without changes to the club and roster happening first.

I dont think its as Crazy as people think.

I think Cheik is a great fit for our club that would bring in sponsorship & massive interest to the club straight away and would put us on the map world-wide.

He has a relationship & backing of Mitchell Moses to become an NRL Head Coach. That connection will be benfiecal to mending any sort of issues of the new coach as Moses is the man to lead us forward for the next 5 years.

He is a self made businessman outside of coaching and a very smart man forget the fact he played/coach Rugby - Cheik loves his rugby league and would know the tactics involved.

He won a super rugby with the Waratahs, Its a waste of time looking at his record with the Wallabies they are a bigger lost cause then this mob.

He was an assistant to Robbo for 12 months at the chooks and coached the Lebanon team at the world cup while juggling the Argentina union side.

And more importantly he is great man-manager he wont take any shit from anybody and would stand up for the club if we were ever wronged by officials and wont cop shit from the media.

Its time to Make Parramatta Great Again and the Cheik is a perfect fit.

Don’t need to sell me - Michael Cheika is a phenomenal man manager…my only caveat would be that with cheika we will require assistants with strong technical knowledge

 

[Rocket man]

Were they offering a first grade spot? I don’t believe he was happy to sit in reserve grade if he had other options.

In preference to Cody Walker.
Yeah

Not for Margot….

What's wrong with Barrett, Murph and Antonelli?

Ok don't answer that

why not a punt on these brothers, Parra had a thing for brothers so why not the coaches https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nr...t/news-story/8319d1b9c3c9b33d6481a5a2b9459403

Well we have shied away from TPA's which in turn puts pressure on our cap as we dont have 'extras' and the players BA has needed and have wanted are not cheap, so we lose out at the negotiation table. We have a squad based on a particular style of play and when you load your salary cap with a quality (expensive) 1, 6 & 7 and then top it up with some highly paid forwards, you dont have a lot left over.

 

[King-Gutho94]

But it hasn’t really worked. That’s my point.

Didn't BA and Daniel Anderson have a fallout as well when DA was basically doing a similar role to MON before the salary cap debacle.

I noticed BA wasnt anywhere to be seen or heard when the Daniel Anderson's fundraisers were happening last year it had more people from the Chooks and Warriors then Parramatta.

Considering they worked together for 3 or 4 years clearly the friendship wasn't there that BA would go to support him.

Might sense a pattern emerging there with BA.
