[Resurrected] Lol @ Parra

[Eagle 1]

Report on ch9 Bris, that Arthur is being shopped around by the Eels, they would like him to move on. Only problem is, he is still contracted till the end off 2024...lol. wow !!..it's the first time I've heard of coaches being shopped around, could only happen at Parra..lol.

Arthur, Eels say they were unaware coach was shopped to rival club

Both Parramatta and coach Brad Arthur are insisting he plans to see out his tenure at the club despite being shopped to an NRL rival by his management.

The old "His job is safe" line. Lots of possible theories including a bull****e story. But timing wise it appears Parra is trying to lock up Moses long term and I expect the Dolphins have eyes for him as well. Perhaps Moses doesn't relish a longer period under Arthur's reign. The fact that Parramatta are making a high offer for Moses (Which is not their track record) suggests they are concerned. I hope it well and truly derails the rest of their campaign this year.

Bit surprised. Not a lot of experienced coaches available at the moment as we have seen with recent appointments at Warriors and Tigers (and Dogs interim coach). Seems unlikely but you never know.

Trent mk3.
Best coach on the market, just ask him.

He is slowly heading west
Manly => Canterbury => Parramatta.
Once Cleary is finished he can head further west to Penrith.

If you listen to the report ... it is HIS MANAGER OFFERING him to another club ... not the Eels trying to offload him ...

All a play on words.

Nearly every club, player & coach says I haven’t spoken to them. Technically true as they haven’t but nearly always the manager has been talking and preparing a deal, when it’s close they start talking too.

Maybe Brad or Parra have contacted his manager and said get the ball rolling we are looking at a new coach or Brad has said look into the Dog, Warriors, Knights and Titans for me.

Yes .. you may well be right ... but then that takes us back to just making up whatever scenario pleases us most ...

Might be because the manager can see the writing on the wall and doesn't want to be short of his commission for however many years he can bluff the world of NRL into believing his client may one day coach a team to a premiership.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

He might be looking for a father and son deal like the Clearys.

Yeah, at about a 1/4 the deal of the Cleary's.

 

[mickqld]

Yep, the gift that keeps on giving. The disintegration is well under way.

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Good to see the slime slipping down the ladder..they will struggle to make the 8

[Mark from Brisbane]

“I’m contracted until 2024, I live seven minutes from training, so why would I want to go anywhere?” — Parramatta coach Brad Arthur amid speculation he wants out. Who cares about premierships when you can beat Sydney peak hour?

 

[BOZO]

It would be nice if we could get the odd referee onside mate, seems to be worth between six and ten points a game, looking at some of our opponents

I Understand what you are saying feathered friend

But the Great Benchmark Manly teams of the past have beaten both our opponents and the refs

And this is the Benchmark we go by and it is also our path to Glory

Funny bloke that Gutho, they were supposed to be in camp last week, mentally freshening up on the central coast, didn’t work. Hopefully when they come out swinging next weekend the Riff will accommodate them with a TKO, then we will knock them the F out the following week.

What he should’ve said was “why would anyone want me?”
