Rumours and Stuff

Yes because we've already been flogged by wests and the doggies, we we're chugging along like a Japanese bullet train lol

Look I am happy to get rid of BA at end of season. Especially if we either implode or fall short badly in the finals.

The club doesn't need the distraction beforehand though any minor hope this season can be salvaged everything needs to go right and any media speculation about the coach can wait until after our season is over.

Lets see if Jimmy Sparkles comes to BAs defence and tells everyone that he is safe. Thats usually a sure sign.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

which is probably what you would expect him to say if it were true

is there any reason he should lie ?

Almost everyone else does.

Arthur, Eels say they were unaware coach was shopped to rival club

Both Parramatta and coach Brad Arthur are insisting he plans to see out his tenure at the club despite being shopped to an NRL rival by his management.

I don't think the club wants to acknowledge the rumour by making a statement going off this.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Be f**ken funny if he wins the comp this year. f**ken funny!

 

[the phantom menace]

So Ciraldo has already turned down the Wests gig, and presumably the Warriors gig (which went to his fellow Panthers assistant Webster)... and if he'd turned down the Wests gig, then there's no difference between that and teh apparently soon to be vacant Saints gig.

You'd have to think Ciraldo's waiting for something better... or closer... to open up? And it would now seem management companies promote the future avilability of coaching candidates to clubs for consideration, in advance of vacacnies occurring. So it wouldn't take much for his management to have whispered something the Eels way at a time when Arthur was in danger of not meeting a KPI for these wheels to be truning the way Weilder's meida report seem to indicate?

 

[the phantom menace]

Or imagine in the KPI scneario if Arthur's management also manages Ciraldo...

Google tells me Ciraldo is managed by George Mimis (SFX), anyone know who manages Arthur?

 

[the phantom menace]

Looks like Arthur is managed by the Orrs (Pacific Sports Management)... so that theory's out of play.

(Unless some of these management companies like to cause chaos and potential commissions from unexpected/extra/early signings?)

Yeah nah. Not happening.

Brad Arthurs atleast is proven to get a side into finals.

Not while we were a weak club. From 2014 to 2018 we missed the finals four times. In 2016 we would've snuck in if we didn't get caught but we needed to cheat to assemble that roster.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We could easily be chasing flanno

Unlike Ciraldo, he is at least proven

 

[Matty Bhoy]

I’m probably one of the few on here that hated seeing that article. It’s the type of thing that destabilises everything at the business end of the season. All that sht can play out in November.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Gus trying to derail parra's season wouldn't surprise me.

That's likely the biggest impact of this rumour.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

M

Maybe so, but that is also any easy “out” for the club who need to be proactive and not let our gun juniors , re sign coach after 60 point loss… who does that ?go to other clubs, parramatta lost their way many years ago….. and can’t find their way back
Mediocrity has been our friend for a very long time and we have done little to part ways, but I’m absolutely positive u disagree with all of this

Compared to where we were before Arthur joined we are an above average club. Might just be coincidence but there's a good chance we go backwards under a new coach.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yes because we've already been flogged by wests and the doggies, we we're chugging along like a Japanese bullet train lol

We could be top four at the end of the round you f**king idiot.

if it’s true, clubs would of finalized their coach and staff by November

"lol I hope Gronk's unharmed" what a f**kwit

 

[Wally21]

Brad Arthurs atleast is proven to get a side into finals. I think St George would be perfect or the Dogs.

That’s the thing Hindy, he could help a lowly placed club become a regular finals club. It sounds a good move for him and for us if it’s true

 

[Wally21]

I reckon this is what's happened. Phil Gould rates him and has told him that if he can get a release he would offer him a 4 year deal starting next season for more money and double the contract length. His management leak it so that our club can expedite his replacement (which we were probably going to do anyway).

Hope you’re right Avenger

 

[JokerEel]

So we could have the:

Tigers
Warriors
Dogs
Dragons
Eels
Titans
Knights

Change/Sack coaches in the same season and only BA be the one that keeps a job as a head coach the next season!
