Ciraldo linked with Parramatta

Now let us not take this too seriously at the moment, as late last year BA was as good as gone then got a two-year extension after pulling us out of bad form. This hear adds in what others have said in that Ciraldo is courting the Eels job.

Now, let's have some fun and actually go through this, doesn't mean we have to believe it, though i wouldn't mind as i've said Ciraldo since 2018. But why Parramatta instead of Wests for example. Junior pathways set up longer than Wests, centre of excellence done, no lower in fighting, Wests still have some issues with Balmain connection, Parra have an identity at CommBank, have a roster ready to compete somewhat, has a GM in O'Neill who stays out of everyday operations involving the squad. Ciraldo will go to a job where he has complete control and we would let him.

Now take it as you will but media are talking, when media talks the only way out is to win. This says we want minimum Prelim, i had that as my pass mark which would be fair enough, others say GF which is too far fetched. A prelim i would be satisfied with as it is improvement, anything less well is a failure. Yes no comp equal failure but you know what i mean.

"Blue Eel I'm not hanging my head in shame over Talagi, he would not have made our first grade side for most of his time at Penrith, they "the Cleary's" have done a magnificent job of bringing him through.....it would not have happened at Parra, he…"

"Yep, they have realised Wests will take in most of Bradfield, so there are opportunities there for more paying fans. We aren't getting any help from the NRL, so we need to build in a way that goes around the NRL."

    Agreed. We are too reliant on the halves to do it all this season. We need a playmaking Hooker.

        HKF when does Moses ever play first receiver from hooker anyway referring to Hodgson being slow?

    I feel like Mahoney has already given up, let him go to the dogs now.

    Mahoney can't do it all. Eels are burning him out. Anyone can see this.

  LOL, Moses out for Burton? I swear, this site is borderline satire sometimes.

    You can tell from SOO Burton fits like a glove in Panthers line. I've never seen a player happier to be home again.

    You do remember a guy called Stephen Kearney. From all reports was a fantastic assistant coach and in the Storms so called "system". How did he turn out again as a head coach?

      Yep and do you remember Craig Bellemy and Trent Robinson?
      Also highly regarded assistant coaches.
      I like Ivan Cleary, I like west he has done and what he has become as a coach.
      Hoping a lot has rubbed off on CC.
      He has actually coached the Panthers as full time coach (interim) for 6 games and game day coach this year for 3 games.
