Wests Tigers Coaches

Benji Marshall backs Tim Sheens to make SHOCK return to coaching and take over struggling Tigers 10 years after leaving the club​

  • Tim Sheens hasn't coached in the NRL since leaving Wests in 2012
  • The 71-year-old won four premiership as a coach, including one with the Tigers
  • Wests are still looking for a permanent coach after sacking Michael Maguire
  • But they were turned down by Cameron Ciraldo, who opted to stay at Penrith
  • Benji Marshall believes Sheens is the right man to take over at Wests
Not a chance.

Benji, as he showed as a player, is not very good at making decisions...

Ironic.
The same coach he and Robbie got sacked in 2012...
Nothing like an "OLD BOYS CLUB" reunion to hinder an already floundering club...
Lets get the old photos out and reminiss about how it used to be...
I wonder if Teflon has still got that lawyers number,you know the one he got when he was suing us...
AAHHH,the memories....
If he gets to head coach with Robbie and Benji anywhere near him...then thats all this club will be....MEMORIES...

AND SOME ON HERE RECKON THE GAME PAST MADGE.....unbelievable......
 
There's a lot of criticism and guesswork in the media surrounding the coach, so it's no surprise to read this latest stuff. It's the oldest trick in the book, to create a diversion during crisis.

Yes it is an old trick but it will be an absolute nightmare if Sheens as coach comes to fruition.I love my club and will always support it but they certainly know how to completely demoralise you

That's the issue Lauren. There's lots of criticism and guesswork but the club has made no announcement. Its smacks of professionalism with not an ebb or flow to be sighted.
 
No I'm saying people are overreacting and being impatient. Stop falling for it all.
There was an article that listed basically every coach available as potentials. This is background work or crisis management from the club.
 
I'd rather listen to someone that's played the game.

This is starting to get weird. Sheens broke up a team that were the last real lot of players that the fans could be proud of. The first player that he axes comes out and supports him, as does one of the senior players who Sheens suggested got him sacked.
Too much nostalgia not sure it will translate to the here and now.

Gibbs retired nearly 10 years ago.
Sheens hasn't coached in the NRL for 10 years.

You'll find plenty of ex-players that wax lyrical about all sorts of old coaches, which is fair enough too. Doesn't mean we should be appointing Warren Ryan or Roy Masters as coach in 2023 though.
True Garry, the old nostalgia kicks in hard.

Esan is a club immortal.
