When do we call time?

[Gronk]

To be our coach if BA is not retained. He is confident of being back on the NRL next year.

The merkin was suspended in the Essendon/Sharks drug scandal, was suspended yet ignored the ban and communicated with respect to roster management and then was in possession of a spreadsheet which detailed the recently exposed rorts.

There is no way he will be back in 2020.

dont think we need his excess baggage right now

we've been through enough

Its the NRL, who knows which way Toddy will turn?

 

[Bazal]

If we sign Flanagan I'm not sure I could feel comfortable supporting the team tbh...

Not that I think it's at all likely. But with us, you never know honestly.

 

[Avenger]

You wanna flip back to him?

No. I like BA today.

Hello, I'm Mr. Ed

A horse is a horse, of course, of course
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mr. Ed

Go right to the source and ask the horse
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse

He's always on a steady course
Talk to Mr. Ed

People yakkity yak a streak and waste your time of day

But Mister Ed will never speak unless he has something to say

A horse is a horse, of course, of course
And this one'll talk 'til his voice is hoarse
You never heard of a talking horse?

Well listen to this

I am Mister Ed

 

[T.S Quint]

Mr Ed wasn’t his real name.
It was Trevor.

Winx can talk.

Thing sledges the f**k out of the other horses in the race every time. It's the Matthew Hayden of horses

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Trevor could be a lot of fun but he was not one to hold his liquor. My back has never felt better since Gary stole him.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Oh, shit I left him at Chardon’s Corner!

I reckon BA is doing a good job and should be extended and I wouId be doing that now, but what is the rush that the media is pushing?

Yeah I reckon BA will easily get a job in the 2020 if we don’t sign him, but it will be as an assistant, who is going to offer him a head NRL coaching job right now? There isn’t any spots available right now (possible there could be some later in the year).

So there is no way BA is going to sign with another club for a assistant role while he is still in the eels heading coaching role (and I seriously doubt any club would be signing assistants now for 2020).

So the only issue in not signing BA right now is negotiations with re-signing our players off contract. And apart from Gutho and maybe Moses, I doubt any of our off contract players are being chased hard by other clubs.

On Drown he is still signed for 2020, so there is plenty of time to negotiate a new deal with him once a coach is appointed.

The media are selling what the agents are pushing. Happens every time there’s names off contract and we’re enjoying a modicum of success, despite the fact we finished last last year

 

[Jake the snake]

Although I don’t agree on making re-signing coaches and players based on one game, I get the feeling that this game will make a or break the coach. Opening of a stadium with a win is massive thing. BA needs this win more than any other this year. Just my opinion

 

[strider]

Dunno ... a win might make those in charge act faster .... a loss and hence 3-3 start wont help his cause, but i dont think would be the end of him

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Sack him, you merkins.

 

[Bazal]

Where is @hindmarshisgod

He was on here after every loss last year, but hasn't been seen once???

How's BA going fella???

 

[Jake the snake]

I think he may have earned that deal
