Eels Next Coach

But if that's the case, then it also might have helped us "get" Lane and Lumelume... swings and roundabouts

No one was complaining about Lane in 2021/22 so if it did help, it was a good get.
Lumelume isnt top 30 so nothing to really care about in that case either.

Lane was good for one season, sadly plod thereafter.

Lumelume may well be in our top 30 come 1st July, if we don't buy in any merkins to fill the vacant spots .

Matterson and Simonsson have been with PSM longer than they have been with Parramatta. Maybe the fact that they manage BA is what helped us get those 2.

Really they are two signings probably not worth bragging about are they?

Lane was origin level in 2022. What a drop off.

Wasn't bragging about either of them. Just explaining why we might have 8 players with the same management as BA.

 

[Chipmunk]

f**k, how did we let the one management group manage 8 of our top 30 players (plus the coach, plus his recently departed son) without the Board seeing it as a potential problem?

5 former players as well by the looks of it.

I guess its better than when we had a player come though without an agent we gave the lead to Roy Spagnolo.

The only one I clocked was Jake... and Brett Delaney at the bottom of the (aspiring?) coaches page

Fogarty, Foran, Jake, Niukore, Brayden Williame were all bought to the club during the BA era

Yikes, thanks for those flashbacks... now I need to call my therapist!

Peter Sterling New coach

 

[Avenger]

I reckon it will be Jason Ryles. I just hope we don’t get desperate and give him a 5 year deal. Three years is enough.

He moved back to Melbourne this year, id say he takes over Bellamy in 2026

He was offered the dragons gig and turned it away, not sure he would be interested in Parra..

Bellamy won’t quit.

Bellamy has been supposedly retiring for 10 years he has more potential retirements then John Farnham.

I reckon he will have another 3 or 4 years there to win a comp without any of the first big 3 (Smith, Slater, Cronk)

I even think he threatened to spit the dummy and quit in 2010 when the Salary cap hit over the supposed injustice of it all.

Shaun Wane

Or Shane Waun?

FFS, you can’t win.

Parramatta’s shambolic attempt to sign Bennett exposes what’s wrong with the club

They weren’t late to the party to sign the supercoach. They weren’t in the same hemisphere.

Its the NRL. Something will happen soon enough to draw their attention away.
