Wests Tigers Coaches

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.

This article listing nearly all available coaching candidates is essentially saying that journalists have zero idea who the next coach will be. Let's hope it stays that way until the club announces it!

Spot on….these Journos just can’t stop talking about the Tigers….there are 2 soon to become 3, other clubs looking for Coaches but where are the articles on them….
 
Fox are reporting that Holbrook could be axed as early as before they play the Broncos.
They also don't have to fork out money because of an early termination clause in the clubs favour.
Who will be their new coach then?
