    Dylan Brown is overrated

    Madness to say Dylan Brown is over rated. He was a bit quiet yesterday, but on a whole I think he has been pretty good this season, in a team that is losing more games than they win currently. I look forward to seeing how our new coach uses him.

    Eels Next Coach

    People love to overcomplicate the role of a head coach. Like anything in the life the key is in mastering the fundamentals through consistency - not looking for outrageous silver bullets. If you are incapable of doing boring things day in day out (Like mid season Fiji holidays) - head coach...

    Eels Next Coach

    Commercially for the club Cheika would be huge. With his CV and network around the world. He is a household name. Tbh the biggest decision to make out of all this is, if we do go the Cheika route - who will his assistants be? If we can get proven/capable assistants we would be silly to pass...

    Is it a red flag that no other NRL club (since Cheika confirmed his interest) has seriously considered him?

    Nathan Cleary also has the ability to get the best out of the players around him. This has also translated to these same players performing when he is not even on the field.

    Rumours and Stuff

    I voted for Cheika in the poll.. Why not go against the grain and try something new. He would have plenty of life experience. Seems to have that Father figure energy about him. However I do think the board will opt for someone already in the NRL system.

    If our hierarchy are concerned about external opinions. Especially from the media, we have bigger problems than finding a suitable coach.

    Says a lot about the other options.

    2024 State of Origin Series (Mens Edition)

    Majority of Gus' opinions in the media are a loaded gun, for some sort of agenda. Id take whatever his opinion is with a grain of salt. Similar to his comments about BA getting the sack.

    Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

    The 1.2m per season makes the "unfinished business" all the more palatable.

    Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

    Not sure. However I reckon Souths have had one eye on Bennett since halfway through last season.

    Team list Tuesday Rd 12 v South’s Saturday 25 May

    Walker only makes sense if you have elite defenders able to pick up his slack.

    Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

    Its interesting all the opinions on "What you need to do during GF week" make it sound as if you need some sort of specialised method to be on your "A" game. I think the key is focusing on what not to do. Game day is 80% luck and 20% what you didn't do. You can't really control the excitement...

    Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

    How do we determine if they spoke honestly? We will most likely never know... I thought they did ok. I am just confused by the timing. They know more than I do, so I am sure it will all make sense soon...hopefully..

    Rumours and Stuff

    Exactly. There was no short term benefit to sacking BA - unless it meant getting Bennett for 2025 (If you believe him to be the right option). IMO the board should have let it play out until we were no longer in contention for the finals (Whilst actively sourcing an adequate replacement for...

    If Bennett has signed with Souths, I do not understand the short term advantage of getting rid of BA before the end of 2024. Moses is almost back and Gutho will be back in the coming weeks - the season is far from over. A couple wins and we are back in top 8 contention. Makes me think there...
