          • Adam, the proof is in the pudding.  We currently have a bottom rung roster. You can deflect all you want because Sarantinos and o'neill are both proven failures. 

            If you don't agree, please explain why Parramatta has a bottom 4 top 30

            • What makes either of them a failure? I'm after something more concrete than your opinion or that of some journalist. If you've got a set of performance criteria that they have failed to meet let's hear it.

              • Just speaking on MON here is a list of failures

                Let Mahoney go

                Let Papalii go

                resigned Matterson

                resigned Lane

                Missed Galvin

                missed Keon

                botched DB contract

                Signed Josh Hodgson

                signed Morgan harper

                Just to name a few.

                Hes had what 8 years and at no stage have we looked like having a premiership roster tbh. Actually I think BA and Ryles have overachieved. I just don't see our recruitment and retention heading in a positive direction under MON. We need someone with more gravitas to get deals done

                • And don't forget Utokimanu was let go and Khafusi.  Two proven juniors.  And we have the worst roster in the nrl. Then people want me to explain why o'neill and Sarantinos are both proven failures. 

                  Sarantinos calls the shots on who the head of football should be meaning he is failing the club

                  • He's had enough time. It's constantly 1 step forward 2 steps back. The club has resources, we need to recruit the best talent off the field also. I don't care where they get a general manager from. It could be NFL or EPL for all I care but he has to be a killer. I really like the cut of Braith Anasta though. 

                    • Angry eel you are 1 million percent correct.  The people who still support O'neill and Sarantinos attack the posts we make, but they have zero evidence for their claims that they are doing a good job.  Its absolute bs.

                       Both Sarantinos and O’Neill must be sacked immediately 

              • Ive already answered the question with my above post. 

                Now you explain why o'neill has been a resounding success.  Go right ahead 

                • The clubs had success with MoN and co when BA was here we had a premiership challenging roster then and were the only team that gave the juggernaut Penrith Panthers a run consistently so I'll give credit for doing his job then.

                  The question is now can he do the same with JR can the mentioned and JR build a contender.Indications are not great at the moment and like the last few years of the last regime injuries rule changes and alike have played there part.

                  The bigger factors IMO and I think this is a bit damning how is it the bottom rung St George Dragons can fire a coach have absolute chaos going on in the back round but yet sign Kolomatangi Drinkwater and Metcalfe in the space of 6 months yet here we are still trying to find a long term solution for Dylan Brown 12 odd months after him signing for Newcastle.Why are we like a glacier that moves a foot a year I don't get it.We have everything these other clubs have off the park yet some how we aren't in contention for top tier talent when they come to market.Something isn't right.MoN JS MB our R N R what who is it.

                  One of the biggest if not the biggest club in Sydney and in the nrl treated like the red headed step child when it comes to recruiting and signing the mentioned.

  • welcome  anyone  , as long  as  they  can improve  especially  under  our coach and his  staff  . just saying. 

  • Lorenzo is at the present time a myth, might be great, might be good, might not be. Before we talk about losing him if Burton comes, how about we throw him in the mix and actually see. I can hear the deluge of "we've lost another superstar" whining already. For gods sake test him out, its time . People say too young , not ready, if he goes to another club* (sanders) they will throw him in to learn his craft in first grade. Its time
