\"\"Despite not having coached his first NRL game, Jason Ryles has quickly made significant changes to the Parramatta team, bringing in big-name recruits and letting go of high-profile players. Ryles stated, “We’re resetting. We’re not starting from scratch, but we’ve got a bit of a blank canvas to work with.”<\/p>\n

One of the newcomers is\u00a0Josh Addo-Carr\u00a0after the former Bulldog\u00a0inked a deal with the Eels on Monday.<\/p>\n

Addo-Carr received a lifeline from the Eels after he was sacked by Canterbury-Bankstown following a positive roadside drug test for cocaine in September<\/p>\n

The move sees the flyer reunite with Ryles, who was an assistant coach at the Storm when Addo-Carr was with Melbourne.<\/p>\n

“Had I not known him and have the relationship that I do with him, I probably wouldn’t be talking about him now,” Ryles said.<\/p>\n

“But because I’ve had that experience with him and spent quite a bit of time with him, I know him really well and I know what he can do for our footy club.<\/p>\n

“He’s made a mistake [and] he’s paid the price for it. But now, it’s all about what we can do going forward.”<\/p>\n

Former Panther Isaiah Iongi is tipped to take the No.1 jersey left by the Dragons-bound Clint Gutherson.<\/p>\n

Ryles believes Iongi’s future looks promising in blue and gold.<\/p>\n

“He’s an exciting prospect for the future,” he said.<\/p>\n

“He’s played 60-plus games in NSW Cup, he’s been in arguably the best system in the country at the minute learning off one of the best fullbacks [in the competition] and he’s played that one first-grade game which he pretty much shot the light out.”<\/p>\n

Gutheron’s exit has also opened up the captaincy role with Mitchell Moses and J’maine Hopgood the leading contenders to be bestowed the honour.<\/p>\n

However, Ryles was adamant that the decision would not be solely made by the coaches.<\/p>\n

“The players will have a huge influence on who is the captain,” he said.<\/p>\n

“They’ll pretty much pick who their leader is going to be with a bit of help from myself and the coaches.”<\/p>\n

Ryles confirmed that this would be determined in late January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
