          • From the Daily Telegraph.......

            “I understand people are talking about that (that the premiership window will shut) but I am not sure that is necessarily the case because I will tell you why,” O’Neill said.

            “Brad has a track record in terms of taking a player from point A to point B. “If we look at the top echelon, Origin players, of the last few years we have had five Origin players and four of them debuted in the Origin team.

            “We also have had five players selected in the Emerging NSW squad this year.

            “Then you have the ones like Papali’i, who has played his best footy here, Marata is another, Carty (Bryce Cartwright) has turned his career around.

            “From a coaching perspective, purely, that shows we can help players achieve their goals and dreams.

            Strained relationship......source?

            • You think he's not going to put a point across that the guy he endorses is well capable ? 

              what's he going to say " the guy I pay to coach is a shitcunt nuffie " ?  

               

               

              It's actually a very vanilla statement when trying to indicate you're praising your coach.  No mentons of " great " or " fantastic " coach.  Just a " Brad gets a player from A to B ". Yeah so does a fucking Toyota Camry .  

        • Yeah aged liked fine wine, my word i was off on that.

          • Please note that the Mushroom and me do not drink fine wine.....I'm quiet partial to Yellowtail at $7 a bottle.

            Stay with the Cheap retorts LB, it works (apparently) for Chiefy and Jimmy.

  • The question really is who replaces O'Neill? Is anybody currently in line to automatically take over or do they have to start looking and hiring someone?

    • cayless

      • Fuck no! Please ask whatever deity you pray to for Parra to have some balls and get rid of that bloke. What qualifications does he have besides being an ex player and a shit coach.

        We need to move on from the old boys mentality and just hire the best people. 

      • Not bad he's done well with the coaching gig this year

      • What about Albo? Yes or No?

        • Maybe Cumberland Eel could make it a trio Chiefy, Wong and CE .....I wonder who will be the brains trust?
