What ever you think about Gould , good or bad, the one single truth is that he is no where near as great as he thinks he is. Also I would be willing to pay more than $1 for HIM to shut up
Gould grates people but he is very good at what he does. His double edged commentary is annoying as f**k and is so he can always be right no matter the outcome, but his record for the last 30 odd years cant be argued. He knows how a club should be set up for success and how to put the right people in the right roles.What ever you think about Gould , good or bad, the one single truth is that he is no where near as great as he thinks he is.

Gus has a good football brain squirreled away behind an extremely irritating egotistical persona and a million agendas.Gould grates people but he is very good at what he does.

He knows how a club should be set up for success and how to put the right people in the right roles.
He makes a few errors and falls in love with certain players a bit too easy, but he set the path for the Roosters back in the 90's then us, early days at the Dogs, but the trajectory is headed in the right direction. Look at all 3 clubs pre Gus. Transit Lounge, Perennial under achievers and f**kin' basket case.
100% agree with all of that1. Won the comp with the dogs in his first year of.l coaching
2. won panthers first ever conp in his second year there
3. turned around the roosters from transit lounge
4. best nsw coach ever
5. saved panthers leagues club from bankruptcy
6. Oversaw development pathways that developed one of the best teams in the history of rugby league
7. turned the dogs from a basketcase
dare say nobody knows more about rugby league than he does
You also forgot the review he did about Mary at the Dragon'sI forgot to mention went to Newcastle when the club had agreed to go to super league and convinced the Johns boys to stay with the arl
the loss of Newcastle would’ve been a huge blow to the arl
also when he was at the warriors convinced the arl they needed to increase funding for the nzrl
How do you reckon all those blokes ended up at Penrith genius?Buying Storm and Panthers stars is genius apparently.
Gould improving a bottom team with only the meagre resources of the Panthers Coaching staff, Stephen Crichton, Josh Ado-Carr, Matt Burton and Vilame Kikau is highly commendable.

This is the most important thing Gus has done. First grade success will come eventually I hope. It took Penrith a while.First grade is a sideshow. They are a long way off.
Dogs reserve grade results have been on the up for a while. That will give them long-term success.
I wish he’d drop the commentary gig plus club associations and put his footy brains to good use at NRL Commission level. Instead of constantly whinging about the game - do something about it. Get the game to fix/improve the rules, junior participation, bush footy etc.Gould grates people but he is very good at what he does.

when did that happen? NZRL revenue for 23-24 was same as for 22-23 in the grants area.also when he was at the warriors convinced the arl they needed to increase funding for the nzrl

Yeh he would make a great commissionerI wish he’d drop the commentary gig plus club associations and put his footy brains to good use at NRL Commission level.

Yeh, wasn’t sure if that was still a thing but he could just take the Nine money for three years before taking a seat at the table, I guess. I don‘t think News would be too bothered given some of their reporters have been telling him to put up or shut up over a number of years.Yeh he would make a great commissioner
they had a rule about nobody being involved with a club for 3 years previously from being allowed on the commission
plus news ltd wouldn’t be happy if he was given a seat given his past arl association
why Quayle missed out for lesser people on the commission
Rothfield still hates him that’s for sureYeh, wasn’t sure if that was still a thing but he could just take the Nine money for three years before taking a seat at the table, guess.

Would he be allowed to work for Nine and work on the Commission? V’landys has two gigs. Anyway, he definitely doesn’t need the moneyRothfield still hates him that’s for sure
Your right dean ritchie did say he should go on the commission.
He would have to give up huge wages though at nine and dogs so unlikely
turning around the dogs is a big thing for the game they’ve been useless for ages
