Why are you being so defensive? I don’t follow the junior teams, I don’t live locally. I don’t know the answer. It is an honest question.
When I see posters say (and it’s not just you), that our pathways are sorted, my curiosity is peaked. How have they been sorted? Were we not supporting the youth before? Quite a lot of juniors have made first grade. That tells me the pathways to grade were there in some form. How have they been strengthened to the point people are happy in less than 1 year? We have seen no fruits yet…how could we?

Youve also noted the development pathways upgrade has provided a “huge turning point in the turning of the tide” That sounds great but what is it referring to?

They’re just Pascoe apologists who read his newsletters. Subscription about 12. Tedesco and many others came through our pathways long ago, nothings changed!

It was nice to here Sheens sticking up for the club last night and giving the club a bit of back bone. Can guarantee Sheens has more knowledge and footy nouse then you (wouldn't be hard) was actually impressed with how he handled the media and I have full confidence he will get us success with the route we are taking.

He was sticking up for those who hired him. It’s how you keep a job.

Look, I didn't want Madge sacked, but if you can't see from Sheens' comments and then followed up by Noddy's that there is some issue here then that's ok. I see it, I don't want to, but I do.

Your comment about picking and choosing when Sheens is boss man is irrelevant to me. I've never picked and choosed when he is boss. Maybe your confused with other posters. He gave Madge control, now decided to take it away, and a reason is how he is handling players.

No beef just cant cop pot shots to fuel justification when results are, and or lack there of are the start and finish of Maguires fate.
We have just come through a massive injury problem if some players are brought back early I can guarantee under the same circumstances every coach will play players not 100% - Sheens included and has - seems to have a short memory of late. Noddy has been there for a hot minute. When and if he is ever in a position when he has to win games to save his career and he is faced with an injury crisis then his opinion may hold a bit more weight - that's all.

Yes. This is not the first time I have shared this information. The only tip I ever received is from a work colleague, who had been a coach in the lower grades at an NRL club, a scout and now worked full-time as a professional. He told me the day Maguire signed with WTs as he knew I supported the club. I asked him his opinion of Maguire - he said Maguire will not suit the style of football played by WTs. He was spot on with his assessment as I knew he would be. I'm surprised Magpies you are so invested in Maguire that you could not see it.

Hey Paws,I have read all your critique of Madge and how his style doesnt suit the WTs and therefore he was doomed to failure....let me tell you a thing about Rugby League,firstly you have a team of players that KNOW their job,either a halfback,fullback,centre etc...you then formulate a game plan to beat the team your playing the next game,you target the gun players,stick to them like shit to a blanket and make it as hard as you can for them to score points..you then send your best attacking players at the weakest players in their team so you can score points through them...
I know your not completely inept at seeing how the game is played,but you cant go out EVERY WEEK with the one particular style of play because the opposition will read you like a book...
Taylor tried to teach these blokes defense you know 5 hit ups and a bomb.99% of the teams played that way until they found a flaw in the other team..
However,every year the NRL make some stupid rule changes and everyone has to adapt irrespective if your CIRALDO or Bellamy...So anyone of the coaches playing STYLE must adapt....add in injuries,inexperienced youth and broken down has beens and your particular style goes out the window...
I respect that your mate gave you the TIP...but I would rather watch a team and coach do their very best for the club than an opinion offered from some one that hasnt the qualifications that Madge has,if he does tell him to ring the club and put in his resume...

I thought the injury crisis would save Madge. I have been 😮 by how staunch Sheens has been. He appears adamant Madge had to go, almost angry.

No they haven’t been sorted. The problems which were there 20 years ago are still there.
WT need to look at what the worriers have done. For a start they have put the juniors in the same jersey. This is a simple thing but far too hard for some on the board to accept.

All Madge had to do this season was pick the injury free players - that also happen to be the weakest players in the weakest NRL squad and get them sitting in the 8 after 13 rounds and he’d still have his job. Simple 🤣

Yep according to the Sheenious…
