Ricky Stuart has been installed as the $2.25 favourite by online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to be the next coach of the Parramatta Eels.
Current assistant coach Brad Arthur is next in the market at $4.60, ahead of Jason Taylor, Royce Simmons and Graham Murray, who are all priced at $6.00.
Chris Anderson and former Bulldogs coach Kevin Moore have been installed at $11, with former Raiders and Panthers coach Matthew Elliot priced at $13.
“Ricky has shown he has what it takes and his stocks have risen significantly since he’s been in charge of the Blues, so we’ve got him as the favourite,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Mal Meninga ($51), Peter Sterling ($101) and Nathan Hindmarsh ($101) are the outsiders in the market.

agreed mate BUT I'd prefer Bellamy! Would probably have an interim coach for 12 months if he can't leave now and then have him 2014. Think he gets the best out of players.
If you can get the $2.25 take it!
I can't find the market anywhere... I'll have a crack if someone can find it
According to Benny Elias he just stated on 2SM 1269 that Ricky Stuart will be our new coach. To be announced in 48 hrs. He is 99.99% sure.
hi phil,surely ricky's a done deal,and just awaiting to sk has hes final game as coach,i think if it come's its monday after parra beats the storm.
ok, real value here, ricky, take the 2.25 and parra head to head at $5.10, if ever the eels again will put in the game of there lifes and bleed for the blue and gold its saturday night .turn up all ex parra players please, show us fans where about to be a force again in the n.r.l and back our team.
phil sk gone,all parra supporters now need to back our team right now and the future, and the in coming coach,if you dont like he board , turn up and vote new members in december elections, we need a united eels camp,from the bottom to the top.
move on guys, sk coaching record, is the worse ever at the eels, he had hes chances and failed.
phil, in my view we should sign a coach for only 2 years, if hes win/ lose in the 2nd year is not 50% , have it in hes contract hes services are not needed, thats real fair, seeing coaches are demanding $400,000 a season, that real cash,so we need real results,go the eels kick the storm arse saturday
I agree, I don't see why a coach needs any more than a two-year term. If a coach isn't willing to back himself over that time to show reasonable results, he probably shouldn't be coaching.
