Opinion Is Ricky Stuart the most overrated coach ever?

[Tommy Smith]

Paul Green might be the new Ricky Stuart and live off an early Premiership for the next 15 years.

As for Sticky, I've always been a fan of the bloke and it's good to see the Canberra Poms go well.

I've always had time for Stuart since 2008 when that Sharks team of plodders except for a few exceptions could've taken the premiership if it wasn't for that salary cap rorting Storm team.

I have always respected Ricky Stuart, having met him in person. There is no question that his purchase of four excellent Poms, three of whom are internationals, has lifted the team and made it a top four prospect.

Little known fact Adbert, le Ricky is the president of the Frog and Pom Appreciation & Respect Society (FAPARS).

 

[Bobby DIGital]

The best coaches are the best recruiters...

Too easy

The Canberra Raiders are sitting in third place at the moment. That fact speaks for itself regarding Ricky's talent sniffing ability.

and he is currently sitting on $0 fines

Manly would've pumped us too. Happy to let Storm cop that hiding and wait 8 years.

Correct. Manly weren't losing that day. Never has a team been so switched on and focused on grand final day. The likes of Cronk, Slater, Folau, Inglis, et al couldn't come close.

Grand Final wasn't bad either

Real men sit on the sideline.

NRL coaches are pampered pussies.

Craig Bellamy excluded, he is in the box due to public safety concerns should he not be.

 

[Pedge1971]

Stick for coach of the year. And sack Bennett and appoint Stick coach of the Poms.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is swimming in the shallow end. Too easy

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

Sticky will have five Poms next year (George Williams is coming) so Canberra is sure to make the top four in 2020.

Great sniffing abilities lol

Rick has accepted he should be coaching a Pommy side. Rather ingeniously though instead of going to a Pommy club, he's creating his own in Australia.

Some decent Poms, few decent Kiwis and some Aussies not up to NRL standard week to week. Classic ESL make-up.

That is a smear of ESL.

Well Ricky(who I've never doubted even once) just put on a masterful show of tactics against one of the form teams in the comp.

Ivan Cleary also surpassed him, now having the lowest 300+ game win percentage.

Great week for the Stickster
