I think Ricky has a history of gradually wearing thin on players ... seemed to happen at roosters and sharks .... he likely knows what he is doing though

What baffles most though is the incredible butt hurt some parra fans seem to have for him ..... I think he is entertaining with his media interactions and its funny when he has a bit of a melt down .... but that entertainment factor makes me kinda enjoy him in a way

I don't get that parra fans have to orgasm every time he has a stumble .... I'd liken it to the way tigers fans are about moses - can't let it go - a strange f**kin obsession .... only with ricky is a thousand times worse cos he hardly had anything to do with our club - infact in my mind the best thing he did for us was leave when he did - cool, move on

The Tigers told Moses he wasn’t in their plans. So we signed him.

Ricky signed a 3 year deal with us in 2013 and walked out on us in September 2013. Why would it baffle most that Parra fans think he’s a dog ?

you would have liked ricky to stay 2 more years? or longer? ...... ffs - we struck gold when he got the chance to leave

moses wasn't shown the door .... did they show teddy the door too? ..... the tigers just got to a point where it was all shit and changes happened ....... and if you wanna get technical - moses left them mid season after throwing his toys out of the cot - remember the tckle shy merkin who joined us? then got taught to put his f**kin body in there

Ricky was signed as a premiership winning coach who was going to rebuild the club after our 2012 wooden spoon. As much as our 2013 season was just as bad, yes he should have stayed on and toughed it out.

I think you are re-writting history with Moses. He was shown the door. Parra signed him and wanted to take him immediately but the Tigers wouldn’t release him.


The Tigers, citing salary cap concerns, pulled their three-year offer to Moses on Wednesday. That prompted Moses to seek an immediate release after agreeing to terms on an Eels deal believed to be worth $700,000 per season from 2018.

just like we regularly pull our offers to players .... gutho, nrown, etc etc ..... its the way it works .... we pat our management on the back if they do it

Moses DID end up leaving mid season 2017 - he threw his toys out of the cot and basically stopped playing until he got released

Ricky got appointed by our imbecilic marfia mob ...... I don't think he was the worst appointment, certainly better than big face, but his one season was diabolical and given his usual coaching tenures get worse as they go on, I think it was f**kin awesome we got the chance to move on from him sooner rather than later .... we turned a corner after him

How do we know we wouldn't have turned a corner anyway, or been more successful sooner? He's done a good job with Canberra since 2014, but again, we don't know how much of it is due to Stuart.

And no I'm not saying coaches don't matter, just that they likely matter less than fans give them credit for.

Fu*ken dog to be precise.
He then pulled the family support card for his child but it obviously wasnt an issue when he signed. Im actually surprised that any Eels supporter has any time or sympathy for him whatsoever. Do what you want to me but dont fu*k with my family or footy team. Lol.

Same thing happened when he was rissoled from Cronulla. He was hated so much here in the Shire. I remember the press conference that he gave was in a light tan suit and I thought, WTF??

I must apologise to Ricky. My New Years resolution is to forgive everyone and not let anyone impact my mood. Its always my choice. Sorry Ricky and @Poupou Escobar .

I miss having the chance of spotting him about town and yelling "My wife says you suck" and then running to my car. I hope that @Bazal and @Barry O'Speedwagon still find the time to snap a nugget into his Reschs at the Deakin Football Club.
