BA milestone

After beating the Tigers on Sunday, Arthur now sits at 99 wins as an NRL and Eels coach, a win against Canterbury will give Arthur his 100th career win. Despite constant back and forth of loving him and hating him, I Myself been guilty of flip flopping between two beliefs of his coaching, there is not denying this is a massive achievement, considering over 50% of NRL coaches barely get to coach 100 games then get 100 wins.After coming to 2019 season with a 46% record he has led the Eels over the last two and half years to boost his percentage to 53%, again no matter what anyone thinks of him, this is a massive achievement and if on Sunday it is achieved then he should be congratulated.

        • That sums it up well Mick; BA is successful, the club culture has improved enormously, players want to come to the eels without paying overs and this week's selections show BA is evolving. These are all things we should acknowledge and enjoy. 

          But finals success remains the yardstick.

          • Yep, this.

            Congratulations to BA on the milestone.

            • For me, a prelim final appearance gets him another year. 

          • Of course it does, and I'm sure even Brissy would agree with that 

        • I reckon he'd actually make a great GM

      • Brett Allen That is a good way of looking at it. He has limitations (and I do not believe he will coach us to a premiership) however he has improved our club, we are there and there abouts, not winning spoons and fighting for 13th. 

    • Premierships are not the goal Mick.... just being close is good enough.... until memeberships start dropping.

      Pull the trigger before it is too late.
