I wouldn’t go for anyone, I’ll just enjoy the games without any stress
Sacking Madge Was Pure Sheenius
- Thread starter mikey
- Start date
I picked that up too. Sounds like Ivan 101.

I disagree he raised some good points he basically said our forward pack lacks brutality unlike the Bulldogs, calling out the pack was a good thing. He was a realist, we will get smacked a few more times this year, we have a poo side, he didn't say we will suddenly turn this around, he knows this is going to get real ugly before it gets better.

It’s not for everyone, but it’s the board’s idea of fun.
Exercising their power to change the course and direction of the club.
They can’t possibly delegate that to anyone else.
There are no leaders in the club, apart from them.
Anyone who looks like leadership material is sacked or politically manoeuvred into acquiescing.
Sheens has become a windsock.
Tamou is doing his best impression in a contract year.
Hastings got the message and won’t try it again.
Brooks learned that lesson years ago.
I can name a few others who are playing for a contract at other clubs.
The power brokers, as Buzz calls them, because they obviously need stroking, are destroying the joint and there’s nothing that can be done.
Now we’re looking for a development coach? Please???!! How about we do some organisational development?

Sacking coaches dose not address the core issues of the club and in my opinion just diverts attention away from the Board who appear to be where the real rot starts.
When WT can find Board Members who truly want to turn WT around then they will finally attract the right Coaches and Players to be a success.
Good luck to the next Coach silly enough to want to take on this heartache.

You need to voice this to the club. They have tried to separate themselves from the football department but in reality the front office and the football department are very inter-related. Accountability is needed across all parts of the club.
I live in W.A. wouldn't mind a licence over with a new team.

We need new owners. The current clowns obviously care little for on field success.

But why stress mate, it's a game of footy bro.
I actually love it sometimes, when I need a lift and the tigers get up and really make my day.
The longer between drinks makes me thirstier than ever and the wins more enjoyable.

That's cool mate, whatever makes you happy, as I was saying just then to someone else, it's a game of footy in the end bro, there's fish to be caught, cars to work on, beaches to enjoy, family.... So much to enjoy in life that stressing about a game is not worth it.

So is what your comparing.
4 weeks before that we won 2 in a row.
4 weeks before that we go spanked by the bulldogs
1 week before this game Bulldogs thumped the Eels by 30.
It means squat. What means something is our trend lines:
18 games in a row we haven’t won a 2nd half
60% of our last 15 games we haven’t scored more than 2 tries

Yeah I agree man, let’s face it, we were unlucky to start following the football clubs we did. I think my years as a supporter to finals appearances ratio is approaching 7:1 some of the older guys on here are far worse.
Ive gotten into woodworking over the past year. It’s an interesting hobby.

My point is, sacking the coach mid season was a boneheaded move. He had a worse team playing with more heart. I mean we got rid of him and don’t even have a replacement lined up and the one we are chasing has publicly knocked us back once already. Embarrassing.

I too have contemplated divorce, not for the first time. But like a rusted on nut, I know I'll probably stick around 🙁

That's the shot. I'm amazed at what YouTube has with those huge wooden tables made out of tree roots and exotic timbers using a combo of milling and expoxy fillers and polishing, 👍

Things are bigger than effort now though.
We were always going to finish bottom of table
Keep him and he makes decisions about our rosters moving forward which he had no clear plan.
Get rid of him and we have a crack at moving forward
Kimmorley was always a gap fill & expectations were very low at the club because of the hole we were in.

Adversity does reveal our strengths and we canwork on our problems but that's no good to us when others are doing the running of the club and we have no control over that destiny. 🙂
God help me - I've joined the ranks of the disillusioned 🙂 🙂
Lets be honest mate, apart from a brief 6 year period where we made the finals 3 out of 6 years as Wests Tigers, the history of both Balmain and Wests has been piss poor since 1992 for Wests, and 1990 for Balmain. I don't believe anyone on that Board or the CEO have any idea what it takes to be a successful ( on field results) football club. Pascoe was an amateur at Penrith and still makes amateur mistakes here 7 years later. The whole organisation is a disgrace and has been for years.
