I hope everyone affords him the time to put everything into place to build a solid foundation for us to move forward and bring home a premiership in the coming years and long term good luck 🤞
Congratulations on getting the job Jason, your apprenticeship with two great clubs sold me when I heard your name was in the mix. Love what you’ve done all ready and tough decisions had to be made,Parra we’re getting stagnant and needed a shake up. Wow we got Lomax and the Fox top that with the best half’s in the comp and one of the best up an comer’s in Longi what a back line. Just need our middle an edge’s to do there job and a dummy half that can pass a ball quickly. Can’t wait to see how we go. Back in the semifinals here we come
Long suffering fans like myself haven’t seen them win before. 1998.1999.2000.2001.2005,2007,2009,2022 all Preliminary finals or grand finals. Surely something’s gotta give soon.
As a long term fan; I am looking forward to improvement through effort in the coming seasons, both on and off the field. I also want to see the ongoing leakage of local juniors be capped. I am pleased to hear this will be a focus for the new coaching staff going forward. Player retention is an issue for all clubs, it's about getting the balance right. That will be the challenge for the new staff and, we should see the results on the field over the next few years. As an aside; I wish RCG all the best and thank him for his service to the club. While I am not expecting miracles, I think it is fair for Parramatta fans to expect immediate improvements on 2024. I very much hope that Jason and the staff have developed a two, five and ten year plan for the club. Thinking long term will put the focus squarely on the development (and retention) of local Parramatta juniors, something I believe has been lacking in resent years. Lets go Parra!
Learned to play the game and barracked PARRA from PNG 50 years ago. Support intact. Welcomed Jason Ryles central theme of hard work in taking the club forward. Go PARRA, new dawn.
Welcome Jason! As a long time fan I’m not expecting miracles in the first year, although I’m sure you’ll have them at least make the Finals. If not next season then in 2026 - our 40 year anniversary of our last premiership, we’ll take the premiership trophy 🏆
Great interview. As an Eels fan of 40 plus years I have more confidence for the Eels future than I have had in some time. His talk of changing the culture at the Eels and improving the work ethic is defintely where he needs to start. Our Mighty Eels over the past few years have become mentally weak as evidenced by the capitulations we have experienced this year (e.g. 5 trys in 10 min from the Dragons, 3 trys in 5 mins from the Panthers and the appalling 2nd half against the Dolphins earlier in the season). Our work ethic is obviously poor too which can not be denied given we leaked 30pts a game this season. Yes our poor defence is also a skill issue but starting on effort will be the building block of change. A team rebuilding always needs to begin with the culture and defence. It is a well worn adage for a reason to say get your defence right and points/wins will come off the back of it.
As an eel's supporter I want him to do a great job, I'll reserve my opinion for next year and see how they are going. My biggest issue is the playing roster or the lack thereof. Parra already had a lack of depth even before they let 11 players out the door and I'm not seeing any big signings under Ryles yet.
You say get back to the past Get Brett Kenny and Peter Sterling Involved and stop shunning them that is the spirit of the club Long time supporter since 4 years old but very pissed off with board grew up watching the greats of the 80s
Looks a little nervous, but that is to be expected I suppose for a new head coach that has never coached NRL before. Said all the nice and expected things and made some great little sound bites for the media sniffing dogs to get stuck in and put on a loop. But it really doesn't matter what he sounds like, I mean look at the best two coaches in the business in Bennett and Bellamy, hardly impressive wordsmiths. As with all new and unknown coaching appointments time will tell, but my gut feeling isn't great. He just seems very stock standard to me. I've been following the Eels for decades and I would rather have gone with Michael Cheika, but here we are so I hope for our sake he surprises me and turns out to be a real pathways and defensive legend of a coach.That is what is urgently needed and paramount for this club to have real and sustained success. If he can be that then the rest will sort itself out and a Premiership won't be to far away. Short of that, it will be same old same old and soon after we will all be saying 'NEXT'!
Not happy about this 🤨 I think they should of picked someone like Humphrey Bear or Delta Goodrum to coach the Parramatta Eels. They need a coach with absolutely no comprehension of Rugby League. Don’t ask my why Be funny as
Need money off our cap.. we maxed out and RCG is someone who will actually get paid his full contract from another club, no one would pay juniors wage so he's stuck here
With the idiots that are incharge of the club and is idiot they have killed this club. To get rid of Gutho and RCG and to keep the likes of Jr and lane is a joke. To To even consider Moses as captain is ridiculous. Moses has taken all our money all for what ,not to play for this club and to get hurt in rep footy. Good to see the club is more important then rep footy plus to add that you get paid to play for your club. Moses is a back stabbing dog. I love this club what what is happening at the moment I am discussed. It seems we are just replacing people with Dragons drop outs.... Oh wait Barrett was also that and that's right he screwed us also
Please fix the defence on the edges and change the up and in mentality we have. Welcome Jason that was a great introduction. Lets go 2025
Welcome to the Eels Jason, wishing you a long and successful tenure as head coach.

Love the vision he has for the club, especially the culture and attitude he wants to instil into the player group and organisation. Go Parra
Bloody brilliant. Let the Ryles era begin!
Welcome Jason, as a PARRA supporter for 50 years I look forward to a new era💙💛

Welcome to the Team Jason.
You come across as a really good man.
I am impressed.
Learned to play the game and barracked PARRA from PNG 50 years ago. Support intact. Welcomed Jason Ryles central theme of hard work in taking the club forward. Go PARRA, new dawn.
Rylesy please tell us more about signings
Love this. So glad we appointed Ryles

Lessgooo up the eels 🔵🟡

Welcome Ryles! Best of luck going forward!

Intelligent man. I wish him the best.
Welcome to PARRA JR. Let's get to work 💪
Let’s go JR ❤

He has a presence about him Eels to finish top 8 next year
😂😂
Welcome to the club Rylsey!
Keep it active parramatta lessgoo brothers..
As an eel's supporter I want him to do a great job, I'll reserve my opinion for next year and see how they are going. My biggest issue is the playing roster or the lack thereof. Parra already had a lack of depth even before they let 11 players out the door and I'm not seeing any big signings under Ryles yet.
So how is the squad looking now?
For the fans, Jason, make our players deserve their spot on the team. No more excuses, good luck. We’re rooting for ya!
JR will bring stability and a new belief to the players.
Good on ya Mate, Please just don't let our Top Players Go their gonna get Parra to the Grand Final with your Help 'Welcome"
Welcome to Parra!
Lesssgooooo PARRA! 2025 Membership loading! 💙💛
Good Luck Jason
rcg was our best player this season should of kept him
How is it Jr is still there over RCG?
Не уверен, что из этого выйдет толк, но you are welcome.
💛💙
Finally actually have a good feeling about this coach welcome🎉
I have a good feeling about Jason he wants to build a strong culture and usually if that happens good things let’s see
Looking forward to what next year brings and experiencing the things you speak of. Welcome to our club Jason.🟨🟦🟨🟦🟨🟦
Compete for a full 80.. yes please 🙏
come on parra!
The Storm system means good things ahead for Parra.
Arthur came from the Storm system so...
😂😂
Did not know Ryles is a Berkley boy!!!! Up the Gong 💪💪💪
Jack Bird and the Stewart bros who were at Manly.
2 words 4 ya Coach....DE FENCE....Once they can do that effectively then give 'em a ball to play with.....Good Luck mate.
Seems like a good appointment. Would be hard to get a coach with a better assistant background in coaching!
ANOTHER 05 PREMIERSHIPS COMING OUR WAY. CHANGE THE CULTURE WITH IN THE CLUB TO BRING A BETTER ATMOSPHERE IN THERE.
Hope it goes well Jason…the competition needs a high flying Eels team
We need plenty of work to be done, but there is hope.
Maybe the work needed it start with the board first....
Hopefully 2025 is our year.
Go Eels
Eeeeeelectric Jason Ryles
Hope the scouting department pull their socks up and the GM signs the right players otherwise nothing will change. Good luck.
Sounds like Ciraldo
You say get back to the past Get Brett Kenny and Peter Sterling Involved and stop shunning them that is the spirit of the club Long time supporter since 4 years old but very pissed off with board grew up watching the greats of the 80s
100% agree 👍
Welcome champ 💪
I'm not sure about about parra well run in recent years🙄.. good luck Ryles.... eels need that big change.
He's ready.
The Melbourne Eels coming soon..😅🤭

Hey, hope ya’ll know 😂
Not happy about this 🤨
I think they should of picked someone like Humphrey Bear or Delta Goodrum to coach the Parramatta Eels.
They need a coach with absolutely no comprehension of Rugby League.
Don’t ask my why
Be funny as
I am sure Eels will do better come 2025 season under coach Ryles 💙💛
Work on defence as well JR
New Coach,Same Old Parra
3 weeks later sacks Gutho and RCG lmao
Yep he’s a liar!
But keep Jr and Lane....
Just another idiot making the wrong decisions
I wish you well but I am not going to tell you how to do your job I just would like one thing mate no easy story's for the scribes
Cliche machine lol. 🙃
But we need a fresh start, will be interesting to see how we look next year.
"hey rylsey mate, how does it feel to coach the second greatest club in sydneys inner west?"
Riles will probably hire a psychiatrist and priest before he has a word with them
Mmmm dunno about Parramatta being well run, that’s very debatable.
Still gonna be the same outcome next year 🤣💀
How does he not want to keep rcg 😤
Need money off our cap.. we maxed out and RCG is someone who will actually get paid his full contract from another club, no one would pay juniors wage so he's stuck here
The chances pf Parramatta winning the comp this century are zero, just saying.
Falling asleep after 2 min
With the idiots that are incharge of the club and is idiot they have killed this club.
To get rid of Gutho and RCG and to keep the likes of Jr and lane is a joke.
To To even consider Moses as captain is ridiculous.
Moses has taken all our money all for what ,not to play for this club and to get hurt in rep footy.
Good to see the club is more important then rep footy plus to add that you get paid to play for your club.
Moses is a back stabbing dog.
I love this club what what is happening at the moment I am discussed.
It seems we are just replacing people with Dragons drop outs....
Oh wait Barrett was also that and that's right he screwed us also
Just fix the defence.
2018-19 rebuild
Parra will continue to be a failing team if they don’t change management. Starts at the top down.
Have you lot got any players left 😂😂
Premiership 2026 🎉😂😅
Wont last 2 years
Trent Barrett shuld be coach
What’s wrong with the interviewers teeth I can’t stop looking at them
