Can the WT make the top 8 in 2023

[FinestTigers]

With this squad and the good signings that are on the way here.
there was a growing sense of confidence by many in this forum feeling that we could make the top 8 next year (2023)

But this feeling we had was felt when Madge was the coach, so how do we feel now?

My feeling is that you just do not sack a coach prematurely unless you have a strong belief that the next coach will almost certainly give us a much better chance of making the 8.

And we still don't know who this new coach is.

It seems as if the WT may have played a fatal Russian roulette once again, i just hope that this is not the case for us long suffering fans.

If you don't like it you either take it or leave it and stop complaining.

After watching Sheens explanation on NRL 360 it struck me..

What's a development Coach..?

Fair dinkum..It is just a bunch of PR corporate BS spin..

Do not buy it for 1 minute.. Sheens has always been a master of spin..All Sheens is doing is buying another 3 years of excuses ...Oh no sorry I mean reasons.. it was like I was back in 2010,,,reasons not excuses

Wests Tigers need a winning Coach..period..

Re-build, Re-tweeking, Re-enginieering .. it's all the same we have heard for 10 years..

Unfortunately us fans just have to accept it...

Any good coach is a development coach.

You can only polish a turd so much. Some will have you believe that Madge was out of touch with the younger generation.
I personally believe he just didn’t have the patients for those that demonstrated they couldn’t make it.

 

[FinestTigers]

No but that's OK we are a Development Club

It seems like we develop 2 or 3 types of superstars just to present them as a gift to other clubs,
Perhaps we're the charitable orginization of the NRL?

The boards henchman - they don't call him Shifty for nothing.

I just hope we have come to a arrangement with a coach already , if we haven’t then sacking Madge doesn’t make a lot of sense , and the longer we go without naming a new coach, it will damage the TIGERS and are ability to retain or sign new players . This could be the biggest stuff up the club has ever DONE.

Agree mate,
We very much hope that the new announcement that is coming will give us a higher hope for next year.

It is a real profession as I've had one myself ...though it wasn't for a team sport. The change came through suffering anxiety from ongoing injuries - I didn't realise the poor coaching methods and techniques from my previous coach were contributing to my injuries. Got over everything pretty quickly.

Someone tell them most of those 400,000 wish they supported someone else.

Believe it or not Lauren your talents can be used in the NRL,

Coaches are being sacked because they couldn't get some of their players to tackle like an NRL player should tackle,

These players have been showing signs that they would be better suited in another sport.

Are you sure that you don't want to take up coaching? and enhance the natural skills of some these players who are unable to make it in the NRL
