    If it’s a pissing contest that you choose Rest assured that in the end you will lose When your stream stops You’ll only have drops That will read like braille on your shoes.

    I am of the opinion D Y is here because of our BOD and not the coach. I am also of the opinion that Ryles is very much his own man and won’t / wouldn’t be dictated to. I am also of the opinion that members of our BOD do have a say on key issues and will continue to do so.

    Jason Ryles - Head coach of Parramatta from 2025

    I’m just glad they are still in the game. I enjoyed them as players and I hope I enjoy them as coaches and then get to see young players prosper as a direct result of their input. So many of our coaches are getting towards the end of their careers so we need the next gen to succeed so the game...

    And that’s ok I get pissed off when some posters bag out someone like Ryles and the bag out anyone who rates him and then at the end of it wish him bad luck and hope he fails. I’d have more respect for their posts if they didn’t rely on bad luck and wishes.

    That’s true but do people truly believe that he was all but signed with us and walked away at 1 minute to midnight on the premise that he might and no guarantees given get Bellamy’s job? I am sure he did his homework and rang the most knowledgeable people in the game and got unfavourable intel...

    The Dragons have way too much nepotism and Ryles wouldn’t cop it and good on him for standing his ground.

    I suspect that is a Polite way of keeping the door open If not mistaken earlier articles indicated Ryles wanted certain things and didn’t get them.

    Jason Ryles - Head coach of Parramatta from 2025

    Just taking the opportunity to duck in and wish your team all the best under Ryles who I believe will succeed but may need a bit of time to get there so keep the faith early on. A lot of soft cocks over in my forum bagging him out & hoping he fails etc etc obviously some of them are worried...

    Ryles applied for a job that our BOD saw fit to interview D Y for ffs what does that tell you for a start. Don’t forget they punted Hornby and he hasn’t been herd of since but good old Deano just keeps on turning up. Ryles turns us down as conditions he requested were obviously turned down. He...

    FFS wake up I’m not lumbering anyone into any category and you did complain about the use of the word “stupid “ inferring that I’m calling people stupid which again is incorrect. This debate started out about Ryles and not S F and the psychology degree you seem to now have obviously came out...

    So do you want me to post an opinion that isn’t mine? Funny you want to protest about the use of the word “stupid” when words like merkin etc are widely used in description if all sorts of people including posters, players, coaches, journos, referees etc etc etc IMO you are being rather...

    That is not what I’m saying at all. I’m not asking anyone to support him I’m just saying I believe he will be a good coach and I wish him no malice or ill will. IMO to underestimate him as so many are doing is to put it bluntly “stupid”. If he proves to be a good coach then I hope our coach...

    FMD I thought my pipes could do with a real good clean out, yours have shriveled so badly you probably need a transplant. Get rid of those black tadpoles buddy even if you have to do it yourself.

    Great post by you I too want our ex players to succeed in coaching especially those that represented our club with honour over many years. All the muppets in here wanting ex players to be duds as coaches or break down with injury if playing for other clubs shit me to tears. I truly want other...

    If you have to resort to pedantry then best you give it away we both know who we are talking about Me grandstanding you say in relation to “new era” obviously you have failed to listen to what Sterling actually said himself best you look that up. Sterling was no fan of Arthur as you claim...

    Stirling has had almost nothing to do with the club post his retirement He know says he’s glad to be onboard as part of “the new era” for Parramatta. Isn’t Ryles the new era? If he didn’t believe in Ryles do you think he would stick his head up now?

    So are you suggesting they don't need a backs coach? IMO Ryles needs to have some support and who better to try than someone who has played at the highest level but evidently you want to rule him out for having done so. Gasnier can teach them match day preparation, personal drills, dealing...

    Your underestimation of Ryles is astonishing and I believe it will firmly bite you on the arse within his first 2 years at the helm. He has instantly brought Stirling in from the freezer that others have had him in locked away in for 30 + years so Ryles is already heavily buying into the...

    Flanno's New Signings

    What I don’t quite get in all of this fiasco surrounding our halves is the following Last year we had Hunt and we signed Marschke and would have had Volkman if he wasn’t injured. If they were part of the answer last year and Hunt is no longer here then why are those 2 not part of the potential...
