John Lang is the man for the job.
The bloke coaches using the age old principle of common sense.
All the other young upstart coaches like Stuart and Nathan Brown etc. think they can do a part time Dale Carnegie course in public speaking, and learn a few buzz words and catch phrases, and that's all it takes.
Stuart's success is based on the fact that he has had Fittler in his side steering the ship around the paddock. Also coaching for a club that seems to fit 5 million dollars worth of player's contracts under a 3 and a half million cap makes a coaches job easy too.
Also having an ex-panther legend in John Cartwright in the co-pilot's seat has helped Stuart's success. In fact a lot of the Rooster's success in the last few years can be attributed to ex-panthers. Gould, Fittler, Cartwright, who learn't their trade out in the west where the real people live.
:roll:
Yeah well Freddy has been at the Roosters for the majority of his Career now and we have only one 1 Premiership...which coincided with Ricky Stuart....gee even the harshest of critics would have to agree that Ricky has done a good job......dont put Ricky in the same league as the face slapping fool.....
As for as Gus he didn't start his Football Career in Penrith as far as I am aware.....please correct me if I am wrong.
Then you talk about 3 men in Freddy, Gould and Cartwright.
How many players in a team??? the answer would be 17.
How many coaches/trainers do the Roosters have?? that would be about 5 (Ricky, Cartwright, Cleary, Gus and Ron Palmer).
So in the 22 involved with this years Grand Final I am happy to say that only 3 are Penrith juniors. Freddy, Catic and Cartwright......probably the same amount of juniors you stole from St George Illawarra or Cronulla, or New Zealand......stupid issue I know....but you raised it!!!
See you win your 2nd Grand Final in how many years?? and your already claiming to be the best nursery for Rugby League....give it a rest.
Did you know that Lang played for the Roosters???? Players and Coaches leave teams all the time....so what is the deal??? get over it...you won a Grand Final and your still carrying on.
Oh and you should enjoy trying to keep your 5 Million dollar team under the 3.25 Million dollar cap over the next few years :lol: :lol: Now you have players being picked in the Rep Sides that makes them far more expense ;-)
I was going to reply further.........but decided the washing was far more important
