Eels in the media

Gee I hope the Dogs implode. It would be so sweet to see them slide to bottom 4 again.

The carry on

One good year

He has had 4 different coaching stints.

Warriors most successful period in their history was under Ivan.

Tigers 9th -Best finish in 10+yrs

Penrith 5 grand final and 4 titles - Best in history of game

His only failure was his first stint at Penrith. I think he managed a top 4 spot but failed in other seasons.

Ivan got Penrith to a preliminary final in 2014.

And they beat the Minor premiers in week 1 that final series.

BA couldn't do that and he had 5 cracks at it.

2015 Ivan got sacked off the back of a big injury crisis and Gus delayed the dynasty by signing Griffin.

Dunno if Foran is really an “Eel in the media”

This thread has always included past players and staff.

Warriors most successful period in their history was under Ivan.

They were minor premiers and made the grand final three years before he took over as coach. This was back when they had half the Kiwi side. These days they all get poached by the rest of the NRL clubs, usually while still at school. The Warriors had huge advantages 20 years ago.

Tigers 9th -Best finish in 10+yrs

Penrith 5 grand final and 4 titles - Best in history of game

His only failure was his first stint at Penrith. I think he managed a top 4 spot but failed in other seasons.

He was so great at all these clubs yet didn't even win half his games until his second stint at Penrith.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

BA isn't a shit coach at all. He is your standard run of the mill average coach. Similar to most NRL coaches tbh.
But he lacked ideas and foresight. When every club was looking for smaller and faster forwards he was signing Grieg,Ogden,Jnr, Lane.

Those merkins got us into the finals every year.

Who is the young hooker Ryles is referring to? Is he saying Ryley Smith will be in the top 17?

Where?

 

[King-Gutho94]

Where?

"It all goes back to the strengths of our footy team. We've got speed, we've got an experienced set of halves and we've got a young hooker.

Lussick

 

[emjaycee]

Either Hands or Smith fit that description. Joey, not so much.

 

[hineyrulz]

Lussick

Josh Hodgson??

 

[Lemon Squash]

Lussick

He said 'Young' not 'Hermit Crab'

 

[Joshuatheeel]

It's Hands, he is still very inexperienced ....Ready on one of his many media segments (can't remember which one or wouId have posted it), mentioned something along the lines, Ryles, initially thought we need to sign an experienced hooker (thus our interest in Brailey). But after getting a look at Hands/doing the preseason, it's not as high as a priority. Is pretty content with what we have at this stage.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Hands or Ryley Smith i don't mind either of those options.

Certainly better then Joey Lussick.

There has been a few on here death riding Hands for a while so i hope he kills it especially as he has great utility value.

 

[hineyrulz]

But but but but but Hands is just a utility!!

Who has been deathriding Hands?
I thought everyone had been pretty positive about his skills and involvement level.

 

[Lemon Squash]

I thought Hands was sneaky good in the trials in limited minutes. No qualms with him starting at all but am keen to see Riley get a shot through the year.

Just very interested what Ryles plans for 14 are for round 1.

 

[Twizzle]

I'm surprised that Lussick is still with us, he really doesn't offer much
