NRL: The Parramatta Eels board will make a decision on their new coach imminently.
The Parramatta Eels have come under fire for how they’ve handled their coaching situation this season, with the decision to sack Brad Arthur without a replacement lined up labelled a “disaster.”
“Brad Arthur was given an extension told coach out the year. If they had made this decision last year, they should have made the hard call then,” he said. “Brad Arthur was a very good coach and if they decided he wasn’t the man they should’ve made this decision last year because it’s absolutely destroyed this season.According to the Daily Telegraph’s David Riccio the Parramatta board is meeting on Tuesday night to decide on the man to replace Arthur, with Jason Ryles, Josh Hannay, Dean Young and current interim coach Trent Barrett all in the running.
“They don’t want to take the shine or the preparation away from the current playing group ahead of this game against South Sydney,” he said.Riccio conceded doing so is “going to be hard” for Parramatta.
