I was in the pro Madge brigade and woundnt have sacked him at the time but recently I have been remember back to last year and how truly diabolical it was and Madge had the assistant coaches he chose last year this year our defence has improved because the club brought in assistance to take over the defence for Madge it’s things like this that make me agree with the club sacking Madge

The hoop we need to jump through just got higher now with Holbrook on the chopping block. Will be very interesting to see who we get.

You don’t need to be in or out of the pro Madge group. There weren’t too many Madge supporters, but there seems to be a lot less now that he’s gone.
I thought the club did well to hire Madge and also think that the footy team and cap is in much better shape as a result.
Maguire’s first 2 years were hallmarked by an unbalanced cap, and internal politics which got a full head of steam in his final 12 months. The continual news headlines, describing his sacking with various time frames were a constant source of embarrassment.
The coach is not the problem and therefore the coach will not be the solution.
Benefit of the doubt to you gun man, we are starved for good news

There is a fair criticism though that Madge didn't get the players performing to their ability. I can't think of many games we won via coaching tactics.
I'm more concerned about who we get. If we get a good coach and the system starts producing some talent it will be a massive step forward. We need both those things to happen though and it's a big ask.

Heard him say on a pod his kids ate happy at school.
Think he'd only go to a Sydney team.
Wests Tigers will alter their approach to selecting a new head coach after missing out on their No.1 target Cameron Ciraldo.
The Tigers are in the midst of drawing up a hit-list of potential candidates after coming up with more than a dozen names of would-be coaches.
The Sunday Telegraph can reveal the likes of Stephen Kearney, Dean Young, John Morris, Jason Ryles, Shane Flanagan, Josh Hannay, Kristian Woolf and Steve Price are among the names of people who the Tigers are set to explore.
Others include Canterbury assistant coaches David Furner and Craig Sandercock. Furner has a long relationship with Tigers head of football Tim Sheens. Sheens coached Furner as part of the Raiders 1994 premiership win while Furner was Sheens’ assistant coach during Sheens’ stint as Australian mentor.
Sandercock took control of the Bulldogs on Saturday night in the Covid-19 related absence of Mick Potter. He worked at the Tigers as Jason Taylor’s assistant coach in 2016.
North Queensland premiership winning coach Paul Green is not expected to be considered for the role while the likes of Ryles and Price have given their commitments as assistant coaches to the Roosters and Cronulla respectively for at least next season.
Kearney, who is Bellamy’s assistant at Melbourne, is reluctant to return to head coaching after unsuccessful stints at Parramatta and the Warriors.
Brett Kimmorley is also in the box seat to be retained and will be given every opportunity to show his worth as a long-term coach of the Tigers.
Unlike their pursuit of Ciraldo where the Tigers made it clear who they wanted they will enter the next phase of finding their head coach with an open mind.
That short-list will be whittled down to three or four candidates who will present their vision to the board and Sheens who will oversee the appointment.
The first question they will ask any potential coach is; ‘do you want to lead this club’? Ciraldo was presented to the club and offered a five year deal but this time around they want the coach to present to them.
The club hope to have a coach installed before the end of July.
Tigers greats Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah are expected to play a key role in assisting whoever the next coach is. The duo have dipped their toe into coaching but it is understood they are keen on pursuing a senior coaching position and have been earmarked as potential first grade coaches art the club.
Sheens may also have a more hands-on role with the coach especially if the club’s appoint a relatively inexperienced mentor. Sheens gave former coach Michael Maguire free air to coach the way he wanted.
Flanagan is considered an outside chance while the likes of emerging coaches Young and Hannay are understood to have impressed Sheens with their short stints as interim coaches.
Ex-Tiger Morris is among the favourites to return to his former club as a head coach after leading the Sharks to finals in his first two years before being dumped in favour of Craig Fitzgibbon. Morris joined South Sydney as an assistant this year.
Ciraldo is expected to remain at the Panthers for at least 12 more months. Woolf has been linked to the vacant Bulldogs job after knocking back an approach to join the Warriors.
