[Resurrected] Lol @ Parra

As always at the right price but there is no way I could see it happening - he would be a great player for the expansion team

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

It's a no from me.

No? Good to know.😉

I very much doubt we would have salary cap room, anytime soon, anyway.🙂

 

[The Insomniac]

The sarcasm stings me Terry. Knowone was more disappointed than me when Barrett showed him the door. But where would you play him now ? Centre ?There's more important positions to shop around for, I'm afraid.

According to a report from the Sydney Morning Herald Ryles, who recently signed a four-year contract with the struggling club beginning next year, will bring a fresh suite of assistant coaches with him when his reign begins, meaning Barrett’s time at the club will come to an end.

Having been appointed as the club’s interim when Brad Arthur was unceremoniously sacked earlier in the season, Barrett was one of the front runners to replace the former Eels coach on a permanent basis.

The Eels, however, signed former Storm and Roosters assistant coach Ryles, who has opted against retaining Barrett, a long-time teammate of his at the St George Illawarra Dragons, as an assistant coach next season.

Barrett is unlikely to be the only casualty of the Ryles era, with veterans Ryan Matterson and Maika Sivo reportedly granted permission to seek deals elsewhere, while club co-captain Clint Gutherson will likely shift away from fullback in a bid to keep superstar outside back Blaize Talagi.

The Daily Telegraph is also reporting Ryles is considering naming Origin hero Mitchell Moses as sole captain of the club, stripping Gutherson of his role.

I don’t think we will ever see him back. But it would be nice (at the tail end of his career), for him to have a ‘Steve Knight moment’ of his own.

Baz choking on Gutho’s cock in this piece… look for him to make a play for Gutho wherever he lands… I wonder if Gutho will remember who was coach at Manly when we cut him…?

Gutho's my fullback, full stop: Baz backs his No.1 man

He may be facing an uncertain future at the end of this season but one thing Eels interim coach Trent Barrett is certain about is that Clint Gutherson will be wearing the No.1 jersey for the last seven games.

What a pathetic crowd tonight at ****sville to celebrate Guffo’s 200th

I’m sure he does.

Apparently the journo, Martin the Hutt, has forgotten.

Looks like Leeds are loving Brad Arthur. Recently beat Huddersfield convincingly and play off hopes are alive.

 

[manlyfan76]

Twenty. Mr 29% win rate.

I can't equate the hype around Blaize Talagi with his performances. He's looked average at best whenever I've watched Doesn'tmatter. Gutho is so much better, even in his dotage.

Parra....the gift that just keeps on giving.

Parra....the gift that just keeps on giving.

Ryles obviously isn't the drawcard coach Doesn'tmatta thought. His hopes starting to go up in a Blaize.
I hope he ends up at a weaker club, such as Wests, but more likely it will be the two sombrero clubs, Easts or Canterbury.

 

[The Who]

Latest report has him joining that struggling club.... Penrith.
I don't get it. Why is Penrith getting rid of really great players in favour of an overpriced, overhyped rookie?

Someone isn’t to happy

Well, because they can and it’ll piss the slime off; after all, they’re local rivals.😛

I think I’m the same type of person as Blaize, I too value money over wooden spoons.

 

[Rocky]

My prediction is that Ryles will be a fraud, a bit like Twent.

Obviously Blaize and his management think the same.

It can be hard for youngsters to shine in a struggling team, or sometimes it can even harm their development. As evidence I offer Exhibits A, B, C, D (how long have you got?) being young talent that left the struggling Tigers but went on to be actual quality players in decent teams.

Agree with that except the last five words, which should read:
he values success over money
