Mathew Elliots coaching future

[An41]

This is all Newcastles fault

 

[yobbo84]

Wow.. that came out of nowhere! On a personal note I'd love to see Langy at Souths helping McRae in some capacity...

 

[jed]

Elliott's not such a bad coach, I was one of the ones hoping he'd be retained.

 

[yobbo84]

Hey I just realised something... the two "in demand" coaches who have been snapped up brilliantly led their teams to last and second last respectively in 2005! And the two they've ousted.. one won the comp in 2003, 3rd in 2004 and the other the minor premiership in 2005...

This smells like Souths signing Langmack to 3 years after two close losses!

 

[macavity]

pffft. its Parra's fault.

 

[Jono078]

Holy f**k!

Hope Lang considers coming here.

 

[cainen]

I hope the Raiders make the finals this year. That would be ironic...

 

[greeneyed]

Good luck Penrith... you're welcome to him... It will be a very miserable period for you with Elliott in charge. Elliott has been the Raiders worst ever coach, and driven the club into mediocrity.

If only Raiders management had the gumption and guts to tell Elliott to clear out his office by the end of the day, when he turns up at Battye Street tomorrow morning.

What just happened? Did Elliot just sign with penrith?

Read the thread.

 

[effnic]

i did lol. Still couldnt see any confirmation.

 

[League Freak™]

Matthew Elliott is really a woman.

 

[choc_soldier]

What the f... :shock:

I knew Lang was hinting at perhaps leaving the club, but what a way to find out... that we have signed someone else.

And not just someone else. Matthew Elliot.

I am just gobsmacked.

That's all I will say at the moment.

I saw confirmation on Ch.10's Sports Tonight.

It's happened...

Are there any decent Canberra players off contract at the end of the year that Elliot might bring with him?

 

[Raider_69]

Are there any decent Canberra players off contract at the end of the year that Elliot might bring with him?

off contract players:

Jermaine Ale
Terry Campese
Marshall Chalk
Jason Croker
Bronx Goodwin
Phil Graham
Michael Hodgson
David Howell
Ben Jones
Terry Martin
Adrian Purtell
Alan Rothery
Jason Smith
Nathan Smith
Michael Weyman
Simon Woolford

of them, Graham might be a chance, was rumored to be waiting on elliotts decision before signing, however canberra have said they are close to coming to terms with him

 

[Bumble]

First Gafa gone...now Elliott.

Raider's fans (especially 69) must be ecstatic.

 

[Big Mick]

*contemplates committing suicide*

Penrith have a bit of money to spend come July 1, so I wouldn't be surprised if a few players make the move up the Hume Highway with Elliot.

 

[ParraDude_Jay]

This makes me feel just a little bit better about us signing Hagan :lol: I stand by my tip of Penrith for the spoon, worst management in Rugby League.

Lang :arrow: Newcastle?
