So he gets up at the club awards night and just talks about himself. And his justifications and excuses for what he's doing. In a highly emotional way that's guaranteed to make into the papers. That's really not what an awards might is for. It's for paying tribute to the efforts of players and staff. No wonder they're happy to see him go.

Surely he has to now grant Milford a release. it would be massively hypocritical for Stuart to use a get out clause to break a contract and then try to prevent Milford from doing the same thing

Not really. Stuart was in a position to activate his clause while Milford isn't.

We weren't silly enough to include a "leave whenever you like" clause into Milford's contract.

Cheating the cap always works

If you can prove we were over the cap in 1989, 1991 and 1994 I'd love to see it.

We exceeded the cap in 1990 due to under-estimating how many players would be picked for representative teams - hardly systematic cheating, especially since the salary cap was new at the time (1990 was its first year).

Well you won't have to worry about rep players for a while.
The rickster will grind that out of them.


Didn't the raiders sack this bloke as a player once?

No. Our old board forced him out to give Brett Finch more money.

1 (& only 1) positive for the Raiders having Ricky at coach is they should get their fair share of free to air games.

Ricky has proven this after getting the certain wooden spooners selected for 4 of the last 6 rounds.

Canberra fans sound in denial like us Parra fans were this time last year. He is a shit coach and a worse human being.

Parramatta have to find a coach that can recognise talent in it's infancy, nurture it and most importantly have full autonomy regarding the team, take the board out of the equation. Stuart is now just a figment of some idiot's imagination and it's time to move on.

It's not as though the club doesn't have other clubs to emulate, the top 4 sides are not an abberation, all the Eels have to do is keep the players they have first shot at.

More great insight from Captain f**king Obvious.
