Ricky Stuart quits Parramatta Eels for Canberra Raiders job

[Mr Pmatta]

The reason im so mad at the situation at the moment is that ive never liked ricky as a coach, i thought he was all talk and no go. Yet he convinced me, i bought in like a lot of us did, and id still be backing ricky up now if he would commit to the club. The fact that he is even considering activating his get out clause goes a long way to prove my first thoughts about the man and i can't believe he fooled me with his forked tongue. In my humble opinion if ricky is coaching here next year its because canberra decided they didn't want him.

Exactly my thoughts if he stays it is by default, this why he needs to walk now, regardless of Raiders scenario.

Fmd! The worst part about a coaching drama at the club is the amount of f**king experts on NRL coachs that suddenly come out of the woodwork... I now couldn't give a f**k as long as the decision is quick and swift..

 

[IFR33K]

yeah Brian Smith

I get the feeling he ain't a fan.

Well ricky looks to have his hands full if he does leave, here is the latest incident from bogan quarters Canberra

What is in the water in Canberra that makes players dickheads

I know the whole Canberra team has pretty much been on the drink since the end of the match and are still going...

 

[Gary Gutful]

Brian "no premierships" Smith?
Brian "gun players refusing to play for him" Smith?
Brian "Lets continue to sign f*cking Daniel Wagon" Smith?
Brian "Corey Pearson - you can play half" Smith?
Brian "whiteboard" Smith?
Brian "Are you focussed text message" Smith?
Brian "I dont think Jarryd is ready for first grade" Smith?
Brian "I have to front the board for underachieving" Smith?

Brian "Smith" Smith?
Brian "Brian" Smith?
Brian "Smithy" Smith?
Smithy McBrian III?
Brian O Smithington?
Brian Smithsticks?
Smithmoragical Brianingstone Jr?

 

[eel speel]

Hmmm you seem to to sum it up well.

 

[eel speel]

when/if he leaves who is likely to follow him based on who he bought with him?

Will they really follow him? All the talk last October was that tamou, far ah and bird would come to the eels because he coached them at the Blues. None of those guys left their clubs.

 

[born an eel]

sorry I meant coaching staff,
which staff members are likely to follow Ricky

No water just booze

 

[Snoochies]

As a fan, I don't really care who the coach is, I just hope we have a coach that the players want to play for, it's that simple.

Who do NRL players respect more in the coaching ranks, Stuart or JT?

 

[hineyrulz]

I could never stand him prior to him being our coach but stupidly I'd convinced myself that he was ok as soon as he became our coach. Mostly more out of hope that he was what we needed and would help get the team back to being competitive.

The reality is he is a totally shit human whose coaching record has some massive question marks.

Pretty much my thoughts as well, i tried to like the bloke i really did but in the end he is too big a merkin for that to happen.

Not that it means much but TK on the BSB reckons Ricky is going

TK just has such a punchable face.

 

[Gronk]

Hurry the f**k up Ricky. Let's put this to bed one way or another.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Isn't Ricky fronting the board tonight or the board is looking at his "requests"?

 

[Gronk]

So Sticky cancelled Mad Monday cos he was pissed with the 50 point thrashing ?

Does not sound like a coach who is planning to resign this week, right ?

TK just has such a punchable face.

My sister used to say the same thing when he first appeared onTV back in the 90s.

I try to listen to what he actually has to say, but he just looks so...Smug. Can't stand the guy.

He is like a football version of Kevin Rudd - someone who uses big words to fool people into thinking he's smart.

Or he could spin it as a "last straw" type of scenario - he banned Mad Monday after yet another limp performance, they disobeyed and Stuart said he's had enough and he's joining Canberra.

For the record, I don't think he's leaving, but you never know...
