"Sorry about my voice - but if I didn't turn up, you would say I'm hiding."

"I don't give a stuff what people say about me."


Yep.....

Where all hurtin....

The worst part of it is that Stuart is not only a bad coach but a real dickhead to boot. The club is an embarrassing mess from playing to press conferences.

He has no class, never has and never will.

Then just ups and leaves after a few minutes. Gus was spot on when he tore him a new one a few years back.

This is getting really ugly. Same press conference as last week- a prepared rant about a completely unattainable solution of signing 3-4 marquee players for next year followed by a storm-out when questioned. Brett White for the second week in a row looked confused and uncomfortable when his fearless coach ran away from the situation.

Notice how when 'Josh' questioned him (I'm guessing his News Ltd buddy Massoud) he kept referring to him by name like he was telling him off for even asking a legit question, before deflecting to Don Furner (I think? He was mumbling).

All about Ricky. If he loses to the Sharks next week I will have concerns for his health. He seriously looks on the verge of collapse

If it was another coach, people would have felt sorry for him, but the fact that its Ricky, the animosity is understandable. This is a bloke who bailed on his previous two clubs at a time when they need him most.

It's easily the competition's worst roster.
Stuart has copped far too much criticism. He literally has nothing there currently to work with.

 

[Noname36]

I'm actually starting to feel sorry for him. I know the guy is a dickhead but still I don't want to see him have a breakdown which looks likely at the moment.

 

[God-King Dean]

C'mon guys.

He's working with a real fragile bunch of players! They're really hurting.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Lachlan Maranta is a player i think Ricky can work with.
Shit if griffin was a selector he would be a soo player.
Sign him now.

 

[Newcastlerabbit]

Its not the same watching the Press Conference without Campo riding shotgun next to him.

 

[El Diablo]

C'mon guys.

don't forget they're killing themselves too

bit of a silly comment to make only days after Robin Williams committed suicide

mate so were we last year and apparently our board is still a rabble but we hear less because we have a coach who doesn't let it affect him

Ricky likes to play to the media because they have fed his ego for years. Once he's gone it'll be upwards for the Raiders

 

[Newcastlerabbit]

The drums are beating for Stuart.

not according to him. He left saying he could do better with Raiders superior roster with a lot of young talent and older heads. haha

I felt at the time it was a real scumbag move what he did to Parra and its good to see you guys kick on without him. Shame we are probably going to be stuck with him for eternity.

So true, the myth said that he was going to a lib with a strong top 8 roster, a great junior setup, and experience.

He now carries in about how other clubs have this and that, frd what are Milford, Papali, White, Croket etc, chopped liver ?

No surprise he rips the confidence out of them all, the Eels are playing with the same roster basically as past year, he is a complete pelican

 

[Pete Cash]

A lot of that talent has gone backwards this year by "coincidence". I would say that maybe Buttriss has improved and thats about it. Even Croker who started the year quite strong is looking worse and worse every week.

Older heads? Campo looks old than he does.

Breaking the hoodoo was the loss we had to have.

With the 5th best ESL hooker joining next year you may as well give us the trophy now.

2015. We got dis.
