Yes ALL he did was get Packer to finance their whole academy.Do some book reading lad!!
He did BUGGER ALL for Penrith's success - aside from get his mate Packer to bail out their debts!!
His 5-year plan turned into more than 10 years while he played Checkers (not CHESS) with coach appointments etc.
They only succeeded after luck - and the return of one of the coaches Gus sacked!!
The guy is an inveterate liar and a leech on rugby league!
If you’re saying that Penrith would be in 3 of the last GFs without Gus I think you’re wrong.
They kept their juniors in place whilst he was there… long enough to stick together and they won all the junior comps coming through.
Look what happens when you have good juniors and bad administration - you lose them! …. Teddy and Moses ring a bell.
