Opinion Is Ricky Stuart the most overrated coach ever?

[AlwaysGreen]

I don't know if we're a top 8 side. McGroan, Compo and Butthead are a pretty poor 6,7,9.

 

[hineyrulz]

All the eels fans in here complaining with sticky or no sticky you still wont play finals no difference, your team revolves all around one player, if it was not for him you would be right down there with raiders and sharks.

:lol: Just like your mob and Lockyer, our least our player is still around and will be for years to come.

 

[STORM.99/07]

stuart is a dud. He can take a good side and make a bottom side out of them in one season and then put all the blame on the players.

Look guys, lets keep this about Rick and his bull in a china shop-style club destruction please.

Bulls are more adept than Ricky:

it's not like Milford isn't a good fullback

Ricky also has SOO players

he's just a shit coach

Milford isn't as great as people think he is. He looks good on the occasional highlight reel but offers very little the majority of the time.

I've said this before and I'll say it again - it's not sour grapes that makes me point that out, as I would still rather we had him than not, but that's because we literally have no spark whatsoever with our current mob. Milford's one big play every five games is better than us having no big plays every five games.

Campese, Shillington and Brett White, none played anywhere near the best under this moron, he arses two of them; Tom Leroyd Lahs hasn't played.

Croker, Milford, Edrick Lee and a cast of good youth.

Decent coach could get this squad to the 8; this guys just a dud.

Compo is completely busted up and can no longer compete, White hasn't played anywhere near top form for years, however Shillington has had his best season in a long time. TLL is made of glass.

Croker can't defend for shit, and Edrick Lee has played like 5 games this year because of injury.

Milford is an interesting case. He puts in one fantastic game and then follows it with 6 or 7 shit ones. The mistakes he has made in the last few weeks, the simple drop balls, tripping over at dummy half, etc. are his own.

Stuart will be the only NRL personal/fan happy after today's ASADA deal

If Raiders lose this weekend they should be stripped of all their points for next season as well. Stuart deserves the wooden spoon for the rest of his career after the way he keeps blaming his roster, referees, injuries etc. and not own g up to his own incompetence as a coach.

Yeah what ever keep telling yourself that without him you would not even won half the games you have this year, this is what he was doing in 09 just amazing and took eels to grand final by himself, Just like Barba was couple years ago he carried the dogs now Hayne is doing it again for Eels.

Without him you guys would be nothing, he creates everything for you either scores the tries makes the line brakes or sets up the wingers.

Dude seriously? I'm a Broncos fan and without say Hunt the only thing we win this year is the f**king spoon so don't throw rocks from inside a glass house, especially at a team above us on the ladder. FMD some people.

Well Raider fans though he was pretty great right up until the end of round 13, then suddenly he became very over rated by Raider fans.

This.

What's the Sharks side going to look like?

Probably hasnt helped that he's phoned a lot of games in this year

the reality is he's not a half, he's a fullback, as ive said all along, and he's a dynamic play maker at that position, but defense is half of that game, and he's always struggled there.

He's a superstar, no question, he will create a life time of highlights, but the trouble is the defensive half of his game is pretty average

:lol:

Bringing disrepute to the game.

Sounds reasonable.

Glad it's not the case though, otherwise we would indeed have no points for next season.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

Why would The Games Best Thinker drop Campo now and not at least 10 weeks ago?

What a far king clown.

I reckon his IQ is in the 70's.

 

[oldmancraigy]

You think it's that high???

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Wait a second, the guy hasn't had a successful season since 2008, still manages to land first grade contracts on massive dollars and you think he's an idiot??

He's an idiot.

But he's "one of the Boys" and the Boys are what has held the game back forever.

Least Ricky won't get the spoon now, his presser should be a classic, there world beaters when they win.
