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 .
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?

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.

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

Not really because the role is fairly undeveloped in the industry. Football department GM's are a relatively new thing in the NRL. There aren't a huge pool of young candidates to choose from. Unless the club goes and gets an established name like Frank Ponissi, I don't expect O'Neill's replacement to be particularly well known. The club might even appoint an interim GM like Nathan Brown to get us through the off season before looking for a long term replacement.
"Guymer was off-contract first. Also, just cause we want to extend Tuivaiti earlier doesn't mean he wants to. He might want to test PNG and Perth as well. Who knows
You can say to a player "here is a new 3 year deal" he can say "I'll have a look at…"
"Dragons will have 5 players on close to $1m next year. Gutho, Holmes, Keon, Metcalf and Drinkwater. Leilua and a couple good young forwards may get pushed out. Would be a good get for Parra. MoN needs to monitor the situation closely.
"
"I can't see them letting him go early with a run at the finals looming, but in a perfect world, Metcalf to Dragons could see Sua coming over to us early. This would be great as he's usually left side from memory which is where Lorenzo will likely…"
"They have a good bunch of young forwards coming through and both metcalf and drinkwater are great additions along with Kolomatagi.
We on the other hand cant even keep our best juniors although we've bought nobody, and our number one up and coming…"

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.

Not bad he's done well with the coaching gig this year
What about Albo? Yes or No?
