"So does this trial team suggest Russell has inside line on left centre and Simmonson right wing?"
"I can't comment on MON's / Ryles thought process as well as there recruitment plans Nightmare. However what I can say confidently is if a quality player becomes available that is the right fit and will improve our side we will be right in the mix.…"
"This was a really sensational read, thanks very much for the effort of sharing this - very positive & inspiring for what is ahead.
Sounds like as a club we have truely come an exceptional way in the 16 months or so Ryles has been here.

It doesn't mean nothing.
It depends who you ask.
double negative there Brett
Well done BA. A testament to perseverance
Only taken 8 years.
Just imagine how many he can rack up if we resign him.
To put this in perspective, only four other coaches have coached the Eels for more than 100 games:
Brian Smith, John Monie, Vic Hey and Terry Fearnley.
Of that group, only Brian Smith passed 100 victories as coach. So one more win and BA becomes just the second coach in the club's history to pass 100 wins. He'll also become just the second Eels coach to pass 200 games when he gets to that mark at the end of the season.
Nothing on the unwanted records that he also holds, Super?
"Arthur also set an unwanted coaching record, becoming the first head coach in 112 seasons of the game to coach a side for seven consecutive years and fail to make at least one preliminary final"
Plenty of clubs have failed to make the preliminary final for longer than that, and the worst clubs (like the Tigers) think the solution is sacking coaches. How has that worked out for them? I'm glad we have persisted with Arthur. As his win rate improves so will his finals win rate.
Possibly in under 36 years. Here's hoping. We can't lose our hope.
