Went Home early on Monday and had an interview Wednesday, just been announced as Assistant Coach at Parramatta good bloke good luck to him!The Parramatta club tweeted: "We're excited to announce Peter Gentle as an assistant coach here for the next two years."

Echo what has been said, good luck and all the best Peter.

Good luck to him. He's a decent bloke.

Good luck Peter, Hope you make a go of it.

A nice guy, but they don't make good RL coaches. Wane, Millward, Anderson, McDermott do.

really pleased for him and his family. it may not have worked out at Hull but you cant knock his commitment or knowledge to bring on younger players. he may not be a hard task master but as an assistant he must rank as one of the best.
good luck Peter i'll be following the eels progress next season.

All the best Peter you set us on the right course and got us to a major final again.

Best of luck to peter gentle esquire, personally i think he will turn out a top coach in oz. the mentality and ethics of the players and game as a whole will aid and not affect his style of coaching.

Enjoyed his time with us. Thought the way the players acted with him was harsh but overall he's done more for the club in such a short space of time then any of the others.

totally agree, spoke to the bloke once and came across really well, good luck mr gentle

No. He hasn't. An embarrassing nilling in a CC final and a total hammering in the playoffs did enough to really kill off our hopes of 10,000 passes this year. You could argue he's set us back 3 years.

We'll done Pete , I bet your laughing all the way to the bank.

Wish Peter and his family all the best and with Parramatta. Hope everything works out, great bloke, maybe his style did'nt work with our players.

He led us to Wembley and had us actually believing for three weeks.
Further more I suspect much of what Radders is implementing now was started by Peter. I know for a fact that he did not want warm weather pre season. He also wanted ALL players back by Nov 4th. Little things which are now being portrayed as Radders doing were implemented by Peter.
The play off loss was player power IMO simple as.
For the record I wanted him out after the Good Friday loss but to attribute things down to him and him alone when many good things have happened in the past two years is poor form.
If things have set us back then there are one or two at the club who have contributed to that who should be thankful they are still in a job.
