I know that, but he'll also produce information to suit himself and the club he works for. 50% of his talk is skewed towards making other teams weaker, and the dogs stronger

There is some truth there, Chiefy. Still, it doesn't prove he's lying. Matt Cameron has also admitted the same. Is he lying too? Ryles, Cameron, Gus et al — all saying the same thing about R&R being challenging. Realism. Ask any coach or administrator. I doubt they'll disagree.

It's a worrying sign when a solid few of us on here start to all have the same concerns.
Hopefully we're all jumping at shadows. I just see so many comparisons to some of BAs tenure and where he also got hindered and stuck and am worrying that we haven't fixed some of the fundamentals in the club prior to just swapping out the coaching staff (for a rookie coach).
I'll be extremely pleased to be wrong.

100%. I think with the finish to the year last year. In particular the 60 pt thrashing of Newcastle. Plastered over the gaping holes in our roster. The winning preseason was a sugar rush which gave everyone the warm and fuzzier. Unfortunately the players we have bought this weren't the correct selections. The barometer for me will be the newy game.
"He is a mixture of D Walker and I Yeo. Very high IQ lock that controls the middle of the park. Knows when to run and when to pass. Can cover 9 as well if needed. Best player for us in HM this year for sure."

Gus has been saying for some time recruitment is the most challenging as he’s ever seen. Even over the last week.
What Ryles said, which aligns with that, is just grounded in reality.
Gus also said Parramatta were crazy to let Gutherson go. How did that turn out
Gus knows more about R&R than any of us, no?
But imo Ryles made the right call to let Gutho go. For all parties.
Let's agree to disagree on all of that.

Quick fix. Cmon we've been a below average side since 2001.
Blaming the ref is usually what a coach does when he has run out of ideas.
I hope that's not the go here.
I think not only was Ryles having a shot at the officiating but also at the media also
