Eels Next Coach

[Pazza]

I thought our performances during his tenure were acceptable, especially since 2019. I reckon he we was sacked to take pressure off the board and CEO.

i thought it was just plain bad luck really

 

[King-Gutho94]

137 wins. It’s pretty good. I enjoyed every one of them.

Whats your top 5 wins under BA.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I worked at a place once where the guy in charge would hire peanuts so nobody below him would look better/smarter and show him up for what he is.
It ended up a peanut show. A bag of nuts.

It happens

Well I know this story didn’t happen in Quebec or else they’d have been penauts

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Whats your top 5 wins under BA.

Cowboys and Broncos finals, some of the wins over big clubs like Melbourne and Penrith. It all really blurs into one long montage of adequacy.

 

[emjaycee]

as a coach, you're going to get more credit than you deserve when things go right and more blame than you deserve when things go wrong.

4 out of 12 when it mattered most pau pau

& 3 out of that 4 were to teams who scraped into the 8,& one against NQ who've struggled since.

That doesn't warrant an 11 year deal in anyone's book ! Period!! Maybe only in pau pau's book of mediocrity !

 

[Gronk]

$100 says JA will follow.

He's out for the season after foot surgery and is under contract for 2025.

I bet you're now going to say "I meant for 2026" .

That win in Nth Qld to make the GF, almost gave me a panic attack.

Great f**king game.

EDIT: Actually I will throw in that whole run the the GF.

Beating the Dogs by 50
Beating the Broncos by 50
Flogging Storm at CommBank
Flogging Ricky's Raiders at CommBank, then
Nth Qld win.

 

[Legal Eel]

He also took the Kiwis further than Cheika took the Wallabies. Maybe coaching rep footy doesn’t have much to do with coaching a club side.

If nothing else, you are consistently a f**kwit.

 

[Eelementary]

yeah, sorry to have to break it to you, you must be shattered

WHAT????? WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN????

It warrants at least another 11 years at our club.

 

[the phantom menace]

If you think about the kind of person responsible for perpetuating stereotypes you’ll realise how silly your comment is.

It was an answer to someone's question, not necessarily my own opinion.

In the case of stereotypes about successful men such as these ‘corporate f**ks’, they are spread by petty, insecure, bitter little men like you and me.

Spreading is one thing, the type of people who accept the stereotypes is a bigger part of the relevant "corporate f**k" venn diagram.

We know

especially since 2019.

I'd say 2019-2022. He brought nothing different to the table in 2023-24 despite the game having changed.

I reckon he we was sacked to take pressure off the board and CEO.

Given we only elect/re-elect two directors at a time, I don't think there's ever much pressure on our board or CEO.

I'm willing to give them credit for realising BA's time was done, and wanting to cut the cord to start to fix the problem instead of waiting for us to slide further in the next 18 months.

Would never happen at Parra mate.

Twelve games is a small sample. It’s half a season ffs

He has one of the worst finals records in history * over 10 games. Go and do your maths mr pau pau.
Go check boy.
