Metcalf Dragons bound.

Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf immediately. Just seems logical

  • Dragons have a better recruitment team then us with Daniel Anderson there, he knows you have to overpay on a few players when you have a weak roster, or else you are stuck in the bottom 8

    We need to move on from our conservative approach, if we offered Keaon an extra year, we could've had him and Sua at the club next year, which would of changed the dynamic 

    • Thats 100% correct Joel, Daniel Anderson is only new there and will make them better. Whilst we stick with the three stooges 

      Who would the apologists prefer, Daniel Anderson or Mark O'neill. 

      Anderson has done more in a few months than O'neill did in.8 years here,  and thats totally on Sarantinos as the ceo. 

      • Sorry Chiefy, which one are you again?8980238296?profile=RESIZE_400x

      • Remind me again why Anderson is no longer at this club.

        • Let me tell you something Super,  without a great jnr system and having the person's in charge to identify and sign the best ones long term, Parramatta will be bottom 4 for the next decade.   

          The club isn't going to buy itself out of this.

          Also, by the way Ryles is talking about those above him, constantly saying things are above his pay grade, tells me that something isn't right between him and what's happening above him.

          I could be wrong but its happened a few times 

          You can talk about why Richardson isn't great,  or Anderson,  but you make a zero case on why O'neill is still at Parramatta 

          Write a blog on why mark o'neill should be retained at Parramatta super, then we can debate it, but you won't .im betting 

          • But isn't the burden on you, Chiefy? You've suggested both Richardson and Anderson as models for what the Eels should be doing, but there were huge problems attached to each which you skirt by. What makes Richardson or Anderson good models of GM, given the well-known issues with both (which, again, you mysteriously don't acknowledge)

            • The burden is on you for sitting on the fence without a case to keep the incumbent 

              • I'm not sitting on the fence, Chiefy. I've asked you R&R Experts to give a solid distinction responsibility and accountability and almost all of you have shirked it in favour of scapegoating. I think it was Captain who stepped up and made the distinction, so kudos there, but most of you are just making crap arguments. 

                The issue with crap arguments is they don't convince most. 

                If changing folks minds about mgmt is the goal, I'm saying make good arguments. 

                I'm not going to put much credit in what you're saying if you can't reasonably try to make good arguments. And I'm suggesting I'm not alone. Most just can't be bothered pushing for good arguments. 

                If you want a change, fair enough. Separate accountability from responsibility and you'll probably find most examples you're using to hold to account actually fail single responsibility conditions. It seems you and many R&R Experts are failing to grasp the import of that point. 

                • Im saying you start a new blog to support O'neill and the current r and r and put your case forward.  If you don't,  you have zero argument against the fans who do not favour him.

                  Now its up to you. We're all waiting 

                  If you don't put anything up, you have no case.

        • Ooh, can I help? So, Chiefy wants Daniel Anderson back as GM so the Eels can go spoon, 10th, 12th? Oh yeah, also so that the Eels can breach the salary cap, get fined half a million, and get docked competition points. 

          Please, Chiefy, we would all really love to hear why THAT is the kind of management you want at the club?
