NSWRL Board Makes a Sterling Appointment for Origin

[mosto]

Looks like Bozo has stepped down from his NSW Origin advisory role to concentrate on Manly.

[The Who]

Wise move. Sterling is an astute judge of footballers and tactics.

 

[Shoe1]

He's a hack

 

[Ned]

I'll put a wait and see on this one.

 

[manlyfan76]

Cartwright was the carrot to get Sterlo?

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Sterling-Cartwright. Let's hope they start right.

Good choice. Cartwright mist have the photos.

 

[double hoops]

Stepped down, is a polite term to use regarding Bozo no longer performing that role. Good to see.

but not Pearce ... please

If Cleary is ready he will be 7.

 

[Fluffy]

Sterlo will pick as many Parra players as possible. The guy also holds grudges and is all about Sterlo not what is best.

 

[pjayz]

If Cleary is ready he will be 7.

Give him at least 2 more years before burdening him with that. It has killed many a career - particularly in the 7 jersey.

Having said that, I do see him as a real cool, calm talent that would be made for SOO - just not yet.

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

At least he'll have something to look forward to after what he went through with parra this year.

 

[HoldenV8]

What is the bet that if NSW lose again some fans will STILL blame Bozo......

but not Pearce ... please

Mitchell Pearce still has Origin, potentially NSW captaincy in him: Peter Sterling

Adrian Proszenko
November 11 2016


Newly appointed NSW advisor Peter Sterling believes Mitchell Pearce still has a State of Origin career ahead of him and predicts the Roosters halfback could even be a captaincy contender if he makes next year's side.

Sterling has replaced Bob Fulton as coach Laurie Daley's right-hand man, becoming a valuable sounding board for selection and tactical matters. The Parramatta great is part of a revamped Blues brains trust that includes new assistant coach John Cartwright and Victoria Cross recipient Mark Donaldson, who will become assistant team manager.

His first comments don't fill me with encouragement.

Oh dear.
