Do you think you have seen enough to declare Ryles is going to be s good coach?, it's a resounding yes from me. I declared early on that he will be the coach to end out premiership drought and that feeling has only been reinforced as the season has progressed. It's a bold statement but I'm sticking to it.

As i said before in another blog Mick, the old Eels would have lost last night. We seem confident, fitter and stronger than previous years particularly mentally. The one thing Ryles does well is leaning on his support, he brought Nathan Brown in to be his critic, sounding board and everything else included in the job. Then had the likes of Eddie Jones from time to time in and can offer other ideas. He is not afraid to ask for help or opinion on certain things which i do like. Moa and Wisemental also are on board.
Remember many here were writing him off after the Souths loss. One game, one bad performance and it didn't define him and the squad. Brushed themselves off, learned from it and moved onto winning 2 in a row.
Interesting that 3 of our last 4 wins have been decided by the bunker right at the death of the game. Still this is mostly due to the fight and commitment from our players and staying in the contest. Some luck always needed but
Though all right calls, yes luck but every one of those calls was spot on.
Im sold on the guy, look at the team now compared to the start, we have come on leaps and bounds! Im that on board i honestly believe we will play finals next year. Just need to keep moses on the park.
If ryles signs Tino, we are on our way to win a comp.
Tino no thanks
What makes you say that? At $1.5mil it would wreck you ability to add more good players, how have the titans gone with him?. Very good player and I'd love to have him but if you are paying more than $800k for a forward you ain't winning the comp.
Agree HKF. Tino is not worth any more than 800k. He's a worker, doesn't break the line, very rarely offloads. Even the Titans fans are not fussed if he leaves. They complain about his over involvement, a lot of times he takes 2 hit ups in a set of 6, therefore limiting their backs, which is their strength.
I still fully stand by my personal rule of wait til end of year 2 before i fully pass judgement, but signs look very promising. He looks the goods and is confident in himself and what he is doing.
I love his flexibility.
There's growth within the squad but it's the development that imo through the pathways that unlocks Parra.The last lot through last man standing is Russell that next batch will be huge.If we get a group coming through the pathways together that show transference to FG that to me is the game changer and something I'll be keeping an eye on it's why I follow EA and Richard Jackson's commentary around the mentioned.
It would be awesome to develop a Maclean Halasima types and many more like them.Throw in the old heads which your bloooding now and there we have a recipe for success.
Alot of other clubs are ahead of us so we have work to do.
