Rumour Ciraldo?

[Phalangist]

I'm not saying I'm a ciraldo fan but I remember him doing a decent job coaching the Italian rugby league team a few years back in the world cup.

from
Memory they didn’t even make the quarter finals!

Cameron’s dad & Fred are 1st cousins..

Is this for real?

 

[D- voice]

Saying Ciraldo might have visited Belmore today.

He sure did days ago !

The Tigers, Bulldogs & Warriors all need an experienced development coach. Ciraldo has been very successful at being the 2nd banana at the Panthers who have the best nursery in the game. Barrett was lauded for being a great assistant coach too. Ciraldo needs to go to the UK & coach a team for himself & find some success there first - get out of your comfort zone, Cameron. If he picks the wrong team it will be his first strike against him. As a young coach you only seem to get 2 chances in this game before being tossed away for ever.

If it’s a choice between Ciraldo or flanges I will take Ciraldo

Baz 2.0

Baz 2.0

Why is he baz 2.0? I think what is clear is that no one knows how he will handle being a first grade coach but he is in high demand. It’s a really difficult decision for the club because Flanno snr is the logical choice but we all know that his son is the problem.....it’s so hard to predict what coach is the best for us...but I trust Gus will make the right call

 

[maroondog72]

Ciraldo would be fucking nuts to go to the tigers, and if he’s spoken to Gus as is being suggested he’s as good as here . I like it and I hope Gus is blowing up Hastings phone, put a decent halfback in our side with kikau and reed next year and Ciraldo will have a top eight side in his rookie year.

 

[berries1935]

Hardly a story, of course we have spoken to him.... why wouldn’t we.
all the talk is great about him though. Imagine working with a left edge of burton kikau schoupp and addo carr

 

[Doggiezbrah]

Concerned about Baz 2.0 but then again who knows. Let’s just win some games

100% but Baz had FG coaching experience and failed miserably here. Ciraldo could a Fitzgibbon type or when Bellamy moved from Bennett.

Agree ... Blind Freddy can see we are rebuilding nicely, and will be strong again in the not too distant future.

Can't say the same about The Tigers.

I believe we are a super attractive option for prospective coaches.

Agree. Couple of good signings this year. Two more already for next year. Management is doing well

We're getting there slowly but steadily.

100%! We can build a side around Burton, Kikau, TPJ & Mahoney. We have good cap space from 2024 and a ton of talented juniors. Can’t say much for the tigers..

 

[ILiveForDib]

Doesn’t instill you with confidence similar to Barret or pay perhaps. Though it’s controversial I see Flanagan as safer option, not nessecarily better but you know what to expect and you ain’t uncertain. Proven winner, proven coach and you know for a fact he won’t put up with laziness or poor performances.

Ciraldo is a rookie, could be a Bellamy, could be another Barret. Wont complain if his signed Gus knows more then all of us from a fan perspective a more experienced coach like Flanagan is more reassuring. Without Kyle, if he wants Kyle then Ciraldo for president.

 

[Benno Bulldog]

So does Ciraldo get the panthers attacking game going again, because its he hasn't coached NRL so is it a return to the Panther model because if so here we go again.

Korosau and papal’i are both good but korosau is getting on and was meh at manly. Hasting is there as is douhi and both are solid without being amazing. I think their cap is spent on overpaid spuds though while we are about to be free of all them.

Think kikau Pangai are better than any two forwards they can put up (papal’i is a beast but their second best meh)

Mahoney is younger and in my opinion a better addition. Though fair to argue either way.

Jac Burton shit on their Next 2.

Then we will also have the entire cap open from the other spuds going.

Think it’s safe to say the fact Jac burton Mahoney Pangai kikau here with a open cheque book (pretty sure it was reported we got 7.5 mil to spend by 24) will be attractive for any coach.

My concern with Ciraldo is his age. At 37 years old, can he really gain the respect of his players in the same way that Bennett and Bellamy do? I remember a young Toovey was more of a mate to the players than a mentor. Same with Barrett… we need a hard nosed coach who the players will fear

 

[Blue&whiteAxe]

No

Double No

 

[Blue&whiteAxe]

No more Rookies

Rather keep Potter
