Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

[Poupou Escobar]

if Hollbrok was any good he wouldn't have been sacked, 37% wins in the NRL says no to me

If Hasler ends up with the same win rate at the Titans would it mean he can't coach?

nah, that'd mean he's a f**king great coach

next silly question

You started it. As if win rate at a club like the Titans tells you anything about coaching ability. Hasler has won two premierships as a coach at Manly. Now he's 1 from 6 at a club that makes the finals about once a decade.

 

[Twizzle]

You started it.

So ?

Doesn't mean I have to agree with you.

Most people had the Tits in the finals at the start of the year cuz they have a half decent roster. A lot of Tits fans up here and they are not too happy with Des, although to be fair to Des, he may need more time to get them to play how he wants.

One thing I reckon about coaches especially those who are under Bellamy and we saw it with Kearney.

The moment you lose a few in a row they actually have NFI how to handle those situations because in Kearney's case.

He only ever worked under Bellamy before joining Parra. Once shit hit the fan he didn't have a clue how to handle it because he hadn't encountered before.

Has Ryles done any coaching other then assisting at strong clubs.

I personally reckon he should have gone to the SL for 2 years to coach and actually be the main man in charge. It's easier said then done I suppose with family and moving over.

But I would trust signing a coach more that has gone to the SL for 2 or 3 years and ran the show as the main man then just being an assistant here 10-15 years.

Excellent perspective … no doubt you learn much more about yourself and how to respond when things are going bad

 

[Sensei Cobra]

In my armchair expert opinion
1. Bennett
2. Holbrook
3. Anyone else including Ryles et al

im sure I’ve not thought about many other viable options … let’s hope the eels football brains trust are better prepared

You reckon Des has ever had a Parrot on his shoulder?

 

[emjaycee]

yes, because he is some one new with new ideas and some one like that I think is worth taking the chance on

btw, I don't necessarily want Ryles, but some one of that nature who has potential and who hasn't been tried and failed. I'm not sure if Ryles will be the answer, but it was posted here that we may be interrested in Madge and the fact that the Tigers sacked him is a no from me, that woud be like when we signed Hagen, sure he had NRL coaching experience but he didn't improve us one bit.

We need to be smart with our next move for a coach, biggest decision we've had to make for some time and not a decision for bean counters to be making.

Who should be making it?

Not the current HoF that’s for sure.

A member survey... or a poll thread in here

I think the hair keeps them away.

Remember the inspirational quote from BA at pre season training camp:

‘We’ve done these kind of things before and it hasn’t worked but we need it to work this time’

Going well.

Maybe Bea just needs to steal another bag or the team needs to move a bigger rope??

As I've mentioned, we need some one who can identify talent, from coach, staff , juniors and senior players and I have no idea who that is, wish I did.

I've seen it work before and some one with that sort of talent identification can be a huge assett to any club or sporting organisation.

A good start would be Matt Cameron , the above average ones are at clubs and we would need to offer plenty to get any one of them.

There is a big issue the club needs to understand, for instance my family, friends with season tickets have all expressed they are over football and particularly the way we play. We need a kick start and appointments to invigorate the fan base, currently it is as low and apathetic as our really bad seasons in the 90s. The board may be professional etc but to sit back and allow things to continue on its current path doesn’t make business sense.

Me. I'm a great spotter of talent.

Yet you are still happy to give BA until round 12 before you decide whether to sack him?

He said this because he genuinely believed before the season that we would be a top 4 side. Nobody could have predicted the Moses injury which obviously became a bigger mental obstacle to our players than what we thought. This next man up horseshit didn’t work. Moses injured showed that not only is he our best player but we resigned him for a steal.
