Anything said about who our coach will be.

Keen to know myself... Fingers crossed we know this week

The Pom has indicated that Madge would hold his coaching position.

The Pom might be off the mark on this one.

I hope so mate, Ciraldo is the bloke we need, even though you don't like the idea of a rookie coach. He has Penrith as the best defensive team in the NRL, he has respect among the players, and he could attract some quality players. He basically is everything Madge is not, and we need

Mate, you're expressing opinion, not knowledge. How do you "know" the level of respect Ciraldo has among the playing group? You don't know. You're offering an opinion but presenting it as fact.

Look at the post above yours.

First it was Barrett doing all the work last year, now it’s Ciraldo. The Cleary hate runs that deep.

Barrett had the Panthers attack looking pretty good too…didn’t transcend to the Bulldogs.

Barrett can attract players, Madge could only dream of, and Penriths attack revolved around Cleary, Penriths defence doesn't revolve around one player, so completely different

Is it Barrett who can attract them, or the Dogs? Is it Madge who can’t attract players or is it Wests Tigers?

I didn't down vote you although I should have, it has been reported by many different media outlets, again in todays paper, but carry on

If JFH is an 800k a year prop, so am I and I’m barely 77kgs with shoes on.

Gone absolutely missing 2 straight weeks against packs that want it more

Geez your tough - tonight he was great.
His defensive efforts was massive, very big key to holding the Eels in the 30mtrs often and slowing the ruck speed down. He made 49 tackles today. Most in the game. Not many props do that in 50 odd minutes.

Maybe the first half but he did very little in terms of limiting parras pack.
RCG - 151 metres
Paulo - 151 metres
Isaiah - 124 metres
Matto - 135 metres.

You’re not paying a prop of his ilk 800k to just make tackles In a game of that stature.

hope we try and sound out Paulo to partner Stef

Would be the perfect partner.

I think one of Paulo, Papali or Niakore won’t be re signed.
I’d be asking his manager if there has been any movements in terms of an extension following 23.

There’s a fair few off contract at Parramatta I’m sure Parramatta will sign who they want to prior to November 1.

If it’s a no go, I’d offer Tapau a 2 year contract.

Niakore is starting to get a rap sheet at the judiciary I'd pass on him
Papali or Paulo yes for sure

Christian Welch Is off contract 2022. That would be a great get. Exactly what our young pack needs

Welch is all class.

Nikora wants to go home to the Warriors.
Apparently Souths have asked about Brayden Trindall.

First it was Barrett doing all the work last year, now it’s Ciraldo. The Cleary hate runs that deep.

The Barrett talk all came from the media initially, they love Trent. Haven't seen the same said about ciraldo, more that he's just a good coach not that he's the mastermind behind everything

 

[pawsandclaws1]

So do you believe Matterson will come back to WTs now?

Is it an option ?

Despite being a bit of a twit, the guy is a good player.

Barrett was an overrated player and now overatted coach

I'd take matterson back for sure

Good head of hair though.

I’m yet to see him be able to coach structure and run a team. The bulldogs where terrible & had a very solid forward pack with some experienced backs. They should’ve won more than 3 games all year.

Barrett's a myth. He just has a lot of current commentators as drinking buddies.
Like sticky and the previous generation. How he is still a coach amazes me.
