Rumours and Stuff

[Gronk]

Not a fan to be honest.

He has speed but is that going to be enough working out of our own goal line..

This will make me so happy. Would be a great signing.

I honestly have never noticed him. Surely he would be better than Russell ?

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Cameron was 20's coach. Sharp and BA assistants

So we’ve established that BA and Cameron were at the club at the same time.

 

[Gronk]

At worst he's an upgrade on Russell

FFS

Didnt you watch the Kings birthday game.

He scored the match winning try.

Hard to fall out with someone when you weren't at the club - Matt left midway through 2012 while Kearney was coach and before Arthur was made interim coach - He was Under 20's coach at Penrith in 2013 & 2014 before moving to the Tigers and then back to Penrith.

Are you saying Mannah made it up?

Not going to say it was or wasn't BA. But BA picked up the phone pretty quickly to Barrett when he got the sack at the doggies.

Cameron was appointed as the CEO at Penrith in 2022 - before Barrett even got the sack from Canterbury. We are drawing some pretty pictures to point the finger at BA for not accepting Cameron back into the fold. It was certainly a mistake for him to be let go initially but he had been involved in the club for 15 years when he first left. I know its a pile on for the 11 years he was involved at the club but take off the tin foil hats.

Huh...

My point was if BA wants someone he tends to get them

I have read the transcript and there was no mention of a falling out between BA and Cameron. Mannah did say though it was a mistake that Cameron was let go. I don't disagree with that. I think there are a lot of people that are just happy to blame the failings on one bloke rather than the clusterf**k that has been going on for many years by a lot of different people.

Of course, I also heard BA had a fall out with Daniel Tupou at the same time, when BA stayed back to 6.00 one evening to help Cameron out with the 20's......

 

[TheRam]

that may be so but I can tell you there were opportunities for Matt to come back to the club and that pathway was blocked by certain people.

Unfu*king believable!

 

[JokerEel]

One thing Mannah did say made a lot of sense is that when a player leaves it's not on very good terms.

Even when BA left recently (I know getting sacked is never going to leave a good taste in your mouth).

Brown as well he is at Manly now and loving it doesn't like the Eels.

Ok. What I can tell you is that I personally know three people that have worked with BA. All 3 left because of him. One will be coming back. All are not fans and have indicated that this mess mostly rests with him. It’s just a shame it took our club 11 years to work it out. I’ve tried to talk to him once, all I can say is that he’s a strange cat and about as articulate as a scaffolder.

Funny that. The media portrays him as a nice guy.

The mistaken wasn't letting Cameron go, it wasn't replacing him....its the board's stuff up from 2007 to 2016 of being a total basket case, with board wars every year with elections, constant changing of coaches, changing of chairs, CEO's failed grand plans, undoing of the work Smith had done, no pathways etc etc etc ......

It took Gus a good 10 years to get panthers back on track, but let's blame BA for all the clubs errors of the last 15 or so years....

I took notice of that and then reflected on the two examples he used - Jenko and Fergo. He said they love the Roosters and always speak glowing of them. Could not put my finger on why ...

 

[King-Gutho94]

Gee whiz sounds like there is more people BA had a falling out with then he actually got on with.

Outside of the Ball boys, Murph, Jake, Boods & Gutho

Did anyone actually like BA.

Thanks for sharing. I wonder if people who don't know people (or much about football?) might attempt to correct you.... LOL.

I don't know who you know, but there might be people I know who may or may not be very significant, and who indicate the same things

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I think he will give us a genuine wing option (with the potential to cover fullback/maybe centre), who so far with his NRL games, there is an indication his rucking out work is exactly what we need.

And he is still young/inexperienced, so should get better.

The traffic from Rouse hill to Kellyville judging by how quickly he was able to drive to work every day.
