Jason Ryles is facing a challenging start to his coaching career as the head coach of the Parramatta Eels.
Taking over from Brad Arthur, who was sacked last year, Ryles finds himself leading a team in turmoil.
Despite the expected adjustment period, the Eels have only managed to secure one win out of their first six games of the season.
With a quarter of the season already gone, their chances of making it to the finals are quickly diminishing.
According to zerotackle.com, Ryles' coaching debut has been far from smooth sailing, as the Eels struggle to find their footing in the competition.
The team currently sits four points adrift of the top eight, and their hopes of turning the season around are fading fast.
The pressure is mounting on Ryles to make significant improvements and salvage the team's chances of success.
As Ryles prepares for his next challenge on Monday, he will need to rally his players and instill a sense of urgency and determination within the team.
The road ahead will not be easy, but Ryles must find a way to lead the Eels to victory and secure their spot in the finals.
With each passing game, the stakes are getting higher, and the pressure is mounting on Ryles to deliver results.
Despite the rocky start to his coaching career, Ryles remains optimistic about the team's potential and is determined to turn their fortunes around.
As he navigates the challenges of his new role, Ryles will need to draw on his experience and strategic thinking to lead the Eels to success.
Only time will tell if Ryles can rise to the occasion and guide the team to victory in the upcoming games.
