I'm sure not everyone will agree but in my personal opinion Set Restarts in particular are destroying the game and allowing the referee to basically control the outcome of games. Combine the Set Restarts with diabolical refereeing and bunker calls then the whole fairness of Rugby League has long gone. Seriously today's game was disgraceful refereeing ( yes the Eels made some poor mistakes and the younger players are still learning) but a 10-1 penalty count and not 1 repeat set 🤣. This seems to be a continual report on 85% of refereeing of the Eels games. In my opinion the Eels hierarchy need to speak up about the appalling referee and bunker calls. It's not only the Eels coping it but it seems the lower placed teams get the raw end of the stick. Ricky Stuart isn't afraid of speaking up when things go against his team with refs. About time the Eels did the same or they'll continue to be the NRL doormat team

Seraph, don't stress , after 2 losses Ploppa was out for Ryles blood earlier in the season. He dedicated a whole blog to it. Then we came out and won the St George game ( the Lomax feild goal ) and he pulled his head in..
Thanks Wiz.
At this point its clear Plops opinion is the only one that is allowed on here
If that was the case we wouldn't be having this discussion.
No, you just try and shut down any discourse you dislike.
Don't you have another pious essay you should be working on?
What a Headline: Insider Spills Beans on How a CEO and Club in 'Shambles' even Advertise for Athletic and Development Performance Coaches on LinkedIn
There's just one thing. All CEOs and NRL clubs (even Storm, Penrith, Roosters) advertise on public job sites like Seek, Sportspeople, LinkedIn or even Jora still posting jobs since 2009.
Check the current NRL Sportspeople listings (not an extensive list for all clubs) to keep up to date with the latest on there.
Sorry HOE, as far as 'white-anting' goes, the people I know are only sharing things with me because they know Im a supporter. It is more like 'how is work going?' Not a 'have I got a scoop for you' situation. They arent going out engaging in corporate espionage and leaking secrets like Plops is trying to insinuate.
Aside from that lets all keep the rose-coloured glasses on.
Im sure those in charge believe they are doing the right thing, whether they are actually correct in their decisions is another thing. But sure lets just focus on throwing out terms like white-ant and parasite.
Also, im sure once JRs time is up we'll strike it lucky and find the next super coach through Seek or LinkedIn. Why go looking for the best when you can cast a wide net and have any and everyone apply
Seraph,
Stating facts that all NRL clubs and CEOs advertise on public jobs sites like Seek, Sportspeople, Link, LinkedIn or Jora is about as "rose-colored" as thinking you live on a Musk Mars Colony.
HOE, allow me to clarify.
My comment about Rose-coloured glasses was more for Pops' refusal to admit that there was anything wrong with the front office. His perspective is that the leadership are beyond reproach and questions cannot be asked. Because I mention things I hear from people Im deemed hater or have an agenda to take down the club which is pure stupidity but hey, its only stupid when it doesn't come from him.
Also, all NRL advertise or have advertised CEO roles? ok.
You could very well have correct information from your sources but I guess time will tell. Nothing has been leaked from the media as yet and they're usually the first mob to sniff out any inner turmoil especially with Parra. I'd be surprised if there's anything in this other than Mills missing his expertise in areas he's more trained and experienced in within Rugby Union
Maybe he's more used to Rugby Union more than League. There could be many reasons he's leaving if he actually is..I'm sure Ryles will have someone better lined up
