Opinion Is Ricky Stuart the most overrated coach ever?

[Chief_Chujo]

Im pretty sure there's posts from me in this thread ragging on him lol

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Overrated...

Hack.

Overrated...

He hasn't won the trophy yet, Walt. Keep it in your pants. If he does, this thread will be a very interesting platform for debate, if nothing else.

Hang on mate, this is the guy who couldn't coach, couldn't attract players, couldn't win back to back games etc.

Yet his team of nobodies just finished #2 on the ladder with 10 wins in a row.

Just took one of the worst performing clubs in the NRL era from second last to second, like I said.....overrated.

The change in the raiders has been something i did not think possible. Say what you will about sticky but he has changed the club for the better.

I sort of hope if the Bulldogs don't win which I can't even see them getting past next week Ricky's Raiders win, feel for Ricky, had so many bad seasons.

This must be immensely satisfying for Ricky, the club and the fans.

It's a feel good thing until they're good again next year in which case I will hate them.

Good results this year but it is only the second time he's made the finals in over a decade. I think most coaches would be out of a job by now with those results.

Well if you count the years he didn't coach I guess...

The years he didn't coach he couldn't get a gig. Because of the poor results. So the point still stands.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

But he obviously can coach

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Ha.

Haha.

Hahahahaha.

 

[Meapro Ham]

If he has a few years of sustained success you can come to that conclusion. As it stands the record of coaching teams that don't contain Brad Fittler is sill fairly unexceptional.

Craig Bellamy's record of coaching teams that don't have Cameron Smith and Billy Slater is pretty shocking too.

well yeah except he just won the minor premiership without Slater and will probably get the major as well

You enjoy looking like an idiot, don't you.

Hopefully he's not cheating the salary cap again this time!

Down to Ricardo and Neil Henry for coach of the year.
