Opinion Is Ricky Stuart the most overrated coach ever?

Sticky is officially the greatest coach in finals history. He's reached the finals 7 times and every time he's made the prelim at least. BA on the other hand has never made it past the 2nd week. Will things be any different tonight? Stay tuned.....
But he’s never won the GF. Was assistant coach to Gould in 2002…

How come Gus couldn't win a premiership with the Roosters, or even make a GF from 95-99 though?

Sticky ended a 27 year drought, and transformedd the Roosters into a respectable club. Everything they've achieved since, they owe to him.

They bought a team, then shafted Graham Murray and parachuted Stuart in, stealing Murray’s chance to win a GF.
Penrith and John Lang showed him up in 2003!

There were two simple truths tonight. Every kick should go to Blake and you just run a train on the coach’s son when he gets out there. Neither happened but I doubt any of that is the super coach’s fault.

Well they were different while at the same time being the same

Say what you like about the Rickster, but he has the highest finals winning percentage of any coach in the NRL.

It didn’t work out last night, but from where we were at round 8 to even make the finals was a minor miracle. I approach 2023 with renewed optimism. The Stick will win it all next year, you’ll see.

You're only as good as your last game.

Sticks big men have a habit of letting him down in the big games.

Until he fixes that fact, he’ll have to keep the whinging up to cover for it.

Whinge away Ricky.

Let it go bro. You've tried in two threads and there's no takers. Parra won. Their forwards were better. No one said the raiders props were the best in the world.

Rick still has plenty of lead left in the pencil.

Better result than anyone expected from them in 2022 and they got rid of those awful men in purple.
