"It's who they would replace him with that would be the worry."
"This is too obvious but unfortunately we are banging our heads against a brick wall. As long as we have fans giving our head office a pass mark we will continue to be irrelevant in terms of being a premiership threat. 50 year drought here we come."
"Ryles would be as easy to replace as Brad Arthur's was."
"more importantly what was he betting on ? Pokies? Or sports betting? "
"All I know lads is we can't continue down the same path we need change and we need it quickly.I see no point in recruiting on the field until we get someone more qualified off it.

"This is really disappointing.
Understand it would be very difficult to entice players from the Panthers system, so not throwing R&R under the bus on this one in isolation, but I feel many underestimate Jenkins as a player.

"I think JR is more likely to go to rooters more so than storm. Rooters should be top 2 with their roster. Jury still out on JR or our top squad. When we didn't have injuries we were still getting flogged most games. "

"Great post, PT. Always good to get your insight.
Your thoughts around a younger assistant is interesting too, that ability to communicate to this generation seems to be having an impact with Foran at Manly."

"Good points around leadership, Mitchy. Maybe Hopgood? Sounds like Williams might head to PNG after this contract. "
"Coryn, was thinking the same watching the Dolphins last night.
O'Sullivan won't fix all the Eels issues, but it would be a huge first step.

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
