Eels Next Coach

[Poupou Escobar]

Disingenuous statistical subterfuge and excuses...

No it’s how you make judgments on meaningful statistical data samples. The alternative is sports media style knee jerk witch hunts.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Your point is pure oppositional waffle. Give up or be better.

If I’m oppositional it’s because you idiots are wrong.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

I believe it's known as the "Wests Tigers Formula"... or WTF for short

“I’ve heard that young Mary has been seen in Sterlos near the old Steve Edge Money Chimes machine.”

“I think they need to consider him because his success ratio of 46% is much higher than their current candidates. They must have found them in a bin.”

“I don’t know why they panicked and sacked BA, it’s not his fault Moses got co-vid. Gee Des has those Titans pumping atm. Foran is playing in a dinner suit.”

“No kenty, I don’t need a funeral plan.”

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Exactly. Pou "conveniently" forgot to compare (or to post) what happened to the five year win rate on an annual basis from say end 2022, to end 2023, and then BA's sacking in mid-2024.

That would be a one year win rate ffs. Learn to maths.

I have seen this movie before when it comes to players.

We didn't rate them they go elsewhere and become a success.

We better hope Cheika doesn't become an NRL coach anywhere now let alone becomes a success.

It will be another haunting moment for this club.

Couldn’t happen KG, our illustrious HOF and CEO reckon he’s not up to the rigorous nature of being an NRL coach. He hasn’t coached in Group 6.

That would be a one year win rate ffs. Learn to maths.

No it would be a rolling five-year win rate, sampled on an annual basis.

Much more relevant to measuring decline (or improvement) than the selective turds you're attempting to feed us.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Doesn’t mean they are still ‘improving’ though.

No it doesn’t, but it does indicate we’ve improved. This lines up with Sarantinos’ comments (whatever they’re worth) about our revenue being much higher these days.

A couple of years out of the eight doesn’t mean we’ve gone backwards any more than two years in the finals meant we had turned a corner. But four straight years in the finals definitely told us something about the way we were heading. If we miss the finals for four straight years (something we’ve achieved plenty in the past) I’ll be as alarmed as you merkins after losing a couple of games on the trot.

Some merkin on here reckons coaching A grade park footy is the next hardest gig after coaching NRL.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Andrew webster was a one hit wonder. They may be asking for a bush coach very soon

The Warriors are an unstable club.

Going backwards isn't what you said. You said we are still improving. 2 years out of the finals doesn't show that we are still on the improve.

Told and Were (the past). Yes it told us that we had improved over those 4 years. None of that shows we are still improving.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Looks like Websters ready to apply!

 

[Incorrect]

I just hope I haven't put you on ignore by then to see if you're as true as your word... You're testing me merkin....

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

I’m sorry to spoil the party but Webster has a better coaching record than Deano, the choker and gumpy!

 

[JokerEel]

Young could be a huge left field gamble...


If the club has been interviewing him as well and it only just came out it's good there has been no leaks and whatever the media has been saying is shit..

 

[Gazzamatta]

sounds like his agent is hard at work

The only option not getting media is Ryles.

 

[the phantom menace]

The only option not getting media is Ryles.

Didn't he have a shit ton of media mates come out and give him their support and endorsement?

Did he? Must have missed it.

There could be others hidden under the carpet no one knows about.

 

[the phantom menace]

Maybe not a shit ton... but Ryles was the media early favourite for getting the job, and a lot was made of Bellamy's backing to leave if he wanted the Eels job.

Barrett. Young. Hornby. Ryles
