Sterlo to coach the Blues

So I was listening to Talkin Sport after the Blues loss last week and they were basically saying "more of the same" from the Blue and you get the same result against QLD. Callers were naturally upset at some selections etc.

Robbo said that he loves Laurie as a bloke and thought he was an incredible player but thinks he has gone down to route of playing WAY too structured. And playing that way against QLD is not going to win you the thing you need to score more points!

A caller rang in and asked the guys who they think (if there is anybody in fact) that could honestly build a team and coach them to beating the Blues and it was really interesting that Graham Hughes nominated Peter Sterling and the others agreed massively.

It was said that with his media commitments he could still manage the 3 games and camps in but all 3 said that even today Peter Sterling has one of the best football brains in the game.

I know he won't come near Parramatta but would you throw your support behind Sterlo to take over NSW Origin?

I certainly would.

  • Why would sterlo want to coach the blues for with all the pressure, media always harrasing you and the crap you cop for making different team selections. He has the best job now and earns heaps more then enough without having a stress in the world or pressure.
  • if sterlo is that good offer him the top job as the new ceo of the club with hes team on the board he thinks will be successful.

     i am sure he can fit this in like gus from penrith .

    to add to brad arthur  staying has coach.

    brad built up paulo  now hes putting shit on the club ,  semi was made by brad,so was taka, edwards, manu,  wicks gutho the list go's on, i guess as the layers perform better there prices go's up.

    like other clubs we will lose good players who want the car yard with a old car  full on money.

    if we lose foran and semi , brad will build others, but brad has no control over the board who have been rubble in the past years  and not helped by old board members who wont move on  and leakers who have helped the nrl and media ruin the eels this year..

    thats when sterlo could help the eels , not the blues. rise from the ashes guys.. 2017 will be ok , only  if we keep most of our current players and the coaching staff and brad.

    in my view parra has had little success paying overs in money to  managers who want there cake and eat it. 7%.

    take hoppa wow that was lost bad, now foran lost 1 season with little gain to the club, and watmough , injury cost him and the eels, paulo on $800,000 with hes baggage no thanks .. the list go's on .

  • He should be on the new board for the eels

  • Could not agree more Fong; They are both dopes....

  • Eels need Sterlo
  • I would support Sterlo in anything he chose to do - he's The Greatest Eel :)

    I reckon he would make a great coach, but I doubt he would take it on.

    lol, imagine if he nominated for the board at Parra - I reckon he would get 99% of the vote, maybe more..

  • Who would leave a cosy media gig for the train wreck that is the perennially losing Blues? I'm finding it difficult to be interested in Origin after a decade of losses (save one anomaly)
