DON’T BLAME ARTHUR FOR EELS PREMIERSHIP WINDOW SLAMMING SHUT

It’s fair to say that Parramatta’s premiership window has officially slammed shut ahead of the grand final rematch against the Panthers this Thursday night.

But you’d be heading down the wrong path blaming Brad Arthur for what went wrong this season.

Although there are a few others at the club who should be putting their hands up.

For starters, Ryan Matterson for copping a three-match ban instead of paying a fine. When that initially happened you knew immediately what a dumb decision it was.

But as a club they still allowed Matterson to go through with it.

Then you had Dylan Brown, Reagan Campbell-Gillard and Maika Sivo all serve lengthy bans at crucial stages.

They also made some costly recruitment and retention blunders allowing the likes of Reed Mahoney, Isaiah Papali’i and Marata Niukore to walk out the door, especially without the roster depth to maintain where they finished last year.

Usually when a team’s season goes down the drain the coach is left wear the brunt of the criticism.

While I’d questioned previously if Arthur was going to be the man to lead this club to a premiership, that was before they made last year’s grand final.

I still think the club made the right call extending Arthur’s contract because it wasn’t coaching that let the Eels down this season.

You don’t need to be Jack Gibson to realise what the real issues were.

Seriously if the club or anyone thinks losing in the first 3 weeks was due to us being 1 Matto down they are delusional..

If you want to be a club winning titles having. Your bench forward out should not make a difference.. You need to be a club that has the next man up mentality not oh shit we are missing 1 player we may as well not turn up..

That's down to the coaching and team culture
