Wests Tigers Coaches

He has that now - taking on the coaching job will mean we'll need someone else to take on the Football Manager role.

They may decide to make it redundant

Or maybe that's why they are taking so long setting up the structure for what needs to be done.

Maybe the leaks are people getting shits with proposed changes?

Just a little scripture in these times of need...have faith,be strong brothers and sisters and hope the right decision is made for the good of the club....God bless....

You guys really think there's a stampede of decent coaches desperately trying to join this rabble of a club?

They only need to look at Maguire. Was highly respected, and we couldn’t believe our luck when we got him. Many considered him an upgrade on Cleary. His reputation is pretty much in the toilet now. Why would any coach with a reputation wanna get involved with us? Not even rookie coaches who haven’t even gotten a gig yet want the job.

When Cleary publicly stated that he wanted to coach his son, our board was convinced they were signing Nathan lol. Pascoe has said that.
Who would know what was unfolding at the time?
Fans are too emotionally invested and looking toward the best outcomes, they shouldn’t be making management decisions for the club.

Absolutely right. I was fooled. Looking back at it now, I should have picked it after Brooks was the only one of the fab 4 to stay.

The worst part about it all is that both Clearys have been vindicated. Ivan can obviously coach, but also obviously he needs the cattle and the recruitment/development legwork done by others.

Ivan was only modestly successful at Penrith the first time, also not particularly successful at Warriors or Tigers. Pretty ballsy move to go back to the club that already sacked you once before... and I struggle to think of many instances where a sacked coach is re-hired by that club (Tigers staring down the barrel of doing the same thing).

I also was hopeful Nathan Cleary might sign with Tigers, and at that point he was a mostly unproven junior halfback. It's ballsy of Penrith also to bet the house on the player, to placate their junior halfback and add stability to the roster, by headhunting a coach you previously decided could not do the job.

So it's particularly annoying that it all worked out for Penrith so rosily and that they are vindicated in their risk-taking. Similarly galling that Roosters manoeuvred to sign both Tedesco and Cronk and win consecutive premierships, when Cronk could have lent his support to a struggling club rather than an already-established heavyweight.

First time I met Pascoe in 2020 I asked him about that, about how it must irritate him how well Cleary was doing with Penrith (after the first-year stumble in 2019). He said something like "mate you have no idea".
 
Party at Madge’s is still in overdrive, no wins, no ciraldo, no coach, nothing but chaos since he was sacked.

It’s proven to be a very poor decision indeed.

He should have been given to the end of the year. Every scrap of evidence says so.

Major Tim/club blunder.

He got the Warriors to 8th in 2008, 5th in 2010 and the grand final in 2011, I would say he was quite successful at the Warriors
