A bouquet for Andrew Johns

Andrew Johns has copped a bit of crap from Eels supporters while our form was ordinary for the lack of impact he was seeming to have on our halves, but I have to say I don't think we would have got to the finals this year without him. I think you have to give him a lot of credit for Daniel Mortimer and Jeff Robson coming through to be first grade standard is such a short amount of time. I know having spoken to people in the Eels camp that John's technical coaching is second-to-none. One-on-one he simply blows folk away with what he is able to pass on. We seriously have the most amazing coaching staff for next year. Daniel Anderson is the master coach, Peter Sharp is just about the best defensive coach in the business and with Andrew Johns, you seriously couldn't ask for a better coaching team. Looking forward to what Johns can do with Humble next year, actually, to relate this thread to one of the others.

  • Sorry but theres a better halfback, a better man and someone who gives a shit about Parra and not about earning his drug money that I'd rather have in that position and that is Peter Sterling. Did Jeff Robbo not come out and say that Sterlo has been giving him advice since he came to Parra?

"Well Lomax will be a lot more expensive, Carty would have been on minimum for most of the time and probably only 350/400 now. Carty is not that marketable unless he sell himself attached to the coach LOL"
