Rumours are that NSWRL have changed thier recently made rule that the NSW coach cannot coach a NRL side the same time to accommodate sticky.And you wonder why NSW cannot win an origin series ?
Firstly, the eels - can you really afford to have your coach away for 6 weeks of the year ? Secondly, NSW - can you show a little leadership?
Crazy. If I was John Fordham I would be advising him against it. It just cannot be done. Coaching the eels will take every last piece of sweat and passion out of him, I know it's unfinished business but ...let it go sticky or it will kill you. And note to NSW ... There are other coaches out there you know. And what happens to their next rule...boys we are bringing in a rule that you cannot do this and this - but we will probably change our mind.It becomes a double edged sword. On the one hand by being the origin coach he can attract and motivate players to play for him but on the other hand you miss out on him for a quarter of the season. If this is to happen you need to have a experienced assistant coach not just some mate of Stuart's.
At this stage, Barrett will be coaching our 20's next year.

What's the big deal? The head coach should be concentrating on the long-term strategy of the club, with the day-to-day running of the team the responsibility of the assistants.
If the team can't be without him for a couple of weeks he hasn't done a very good job preparing them throughout the season.

Is that a "welcome to the Eels Trent Barrett"????
If Stagger confirms it....
Trent Barrett eh ? F**k me who'd have thunk that.
