Wests Tigers Coaches

[pawsandclaws1]

Most of us dont realise 10 years is short term. But if you add another 10 years that will make it 20 years, so arent we thinking a more longer time horizon?

Ciraldo was offered 5 years and Sheens mentioned the latest junior intake will take 3 years to mature to grade? In any case, with the Dolphins into the NRL competition for top juniors will be intense. We will have a huge advantage over teams such as the Roosters and Storm if we continue on this path with our huge junior base.

People calling for benji as head coach are kidding them selfs

if he wants to coach get him to coach the lower grades first and see how he goes don’t just throw him into a head coaching role

 

[Eternal Tiger]

It's pointless having elite juniors and debuting them into weak sides, their development will stall and they will soon tire of playing in a shit side.

Benji working with juniors is fine that's where he should stay.

Many would be more inclined to agree with the notion that we should be looking at what we can do in the here and now, today, to improve the situation? The promise of juniors coming through seems meaningless if we demotivate them like we're doing to our current crop.
Do you think these promising juniors are not smart enough to see what's happening?

Ahhhh. The old "in case of emergency, break glass and get Benji back" in action.

Awesome.

Sheens reputation may be the very handbrake on replacing the coach especially if he sees himself having some input in the position. The fact the candidates now being discussed have no FG coaching experience suggests (to me) that he intends to be involved without having all the responsibility.

What I wrote is that you can chose to be miserable or, you can look at the tangible improvements being made by the club in relation to our junior framework - identification, retention and development of juniors. Did you read those threads Tragic? It is a long term strategy implemented no doubt by the football dept headed by your nemesis.

We've had 3.5 years of disaster. It was always going to end in tears. Sheens and others are now attempting to remedy the situation. There are no quick fixes but I do like the fact our Cubs were showcased in NZ and our juniors are being showcased in Redcliffe. There are very positive signs emerging we are on the correct path.

Agree give Sheens the gig and get him to mentor Benji and Robbie, this club is rock bottom we need someone with a clue coaching and young coaches connected to the club being mentored.

Redcliffe will also be more so chasing something a bit more ready than the best kids

I think it will be a case of the Top juniors leaving for better teams.

The guy that started it….
We’re all set then!!

He is a fundamentals based coach and has presence as a head coach.

Its the only upgrade left for the Tigers to take.

Only 3.5 years?

That is where we need to improve to be a top team. We only need to look at the Panthers as a model for how it is done.

Might only be out of desperation that they're discussing coaches without experience, maybe no experienced coaches want to touch the club.
