Rumours and Stuff

Know they have been moved on from coaching at the Eels

I’m talking about the people still at the club

Is this whole working in the community caper just a gimmick? A publicity stunt? From the photos I have seen it looks like a bit of a laugh - are they doing more than one day? I'm not convinced tbh.

As Dylan put it, it's not necessarily about hard work it's about getting out in the community and seeing who you're playing for. It was done over 3 days

Someone can’t let go, literally.

I’m not the one still bringing up the former coach

…and the fact they had video cameras and news crews on-hand suggests it was also a PR exercise.

What! Pou was on the coaching staff?

Did coaching get us into the grand final? Did it cause us to only win seven games this year? Jack Gibson said winning starts in the front office, not on the training ground.

Everything the Eels ever do is a PR exercise. Fans, not just Parra fans, react massively to whatever our players do. Whether we like it or not the general NRL fan base are obsessed with us.

He was a good defender, until last year.

He's also probably the strongest centre in the NRL.

I'm excited to see Mark Gasnier work his magic with him.

yeah, same

he has something but still young, I'm alos keen to see what Gaz can do with him and the other young backs

It was a PR exercise, but plenty here bought in on it.

"Well done Jason Ryles"

"Gee they never did anything like that under BA. Great culture shift."

At the end of the day, it's about signing up members and aligning our sponsors with good news stories that appear in the 6pm news timeslot.

look at you and BA playing 4D chess whilst the rest of the comp play RL.

We are playing 5D chess with your micro tiger penis.

What are you basing ‘strongest centre in the NRL’ on?

Well firstly don't think Mam is going anywhere near being a carpenter. But secondly, I'm only talking about our merkins who have been pictured mowing grass shirtless and riding in wheelbarrows. And thirdly how much fossil fuel power is it taking to generate that GIF you posted? I hope you rode your bike to work today you merkin.

Fossil fuels that those beacons of purity, NRL players, dug out with their own two hands on their days off!

Now we're talking. Put 'em down the coal mines!
