Wests Tigers Coaches

[GNR4LIFE]

Benji has a good relationship most people and that's a lot more than be said of Maguire.

Wait till they see him as coach. It might not matter how many mates he has then.

SOLD.... I'm all in with this
Bennett loves him as he knows how to relate to players.. That is a massive thing we lack IMO and he clearly wants to succeed.

If you wanted to give Payten a 5 year deal in 2 years, I’d be up for that. He’s gone away, worked as an assistant at a couple clubs, now showing what he‘s capable of. This reeks of a guy whose put in no work and is going to be gifted his job. Silver spoon and all that.

I doubt he will be gifted the job.
Coaching at this club will be harder than playing for this club.
His pre work over the next few years is going to have to be off the charts.

 

[TigerVinnie]

Benji will not be the defensive coach. That job will be given to another Assistant.

I actually dont think Cayless was doing that bad of a job... bar the last month (which could be possibly put down to player attitude), our defense has looked a lot better than last year.

Is that like the famous Tottenham Spurs player: Sonaldo.

It’s happening sheens will be coach just get on board with what’s the point in complaining? There not gonna change the decision

We are supporters of the club after all so let’s support this decision

That is exactly the attitude that helps a club only make the finals thrice in 23 years.
Being submissive and accepting mediocrity is the Wests Tigers way.

I don’t mind it to be honest because Benji is a very engaging person. Together with having an attacking mindset and great footy mind he will inspire younger players.

Crucial to his success will be having quality assistant coaches around him for the heavy lifting. Leave Benji to manage the players, like a Bennett or Meninga style head coach.

20 Odd years of watching this team not being able to defend - especially with these 3 same people involved has me disagreeing with you completely....
Benji attitude (His whole career) was I don't have to tackle - And I don't get tackled.

Respect Your opinion….time will tell

 

[Rusty]

Benji needs experience around him, if Farah is the other assisstant "god help us" the likes of Toovey , Laurie etc he needs another sounding board besides Sheens. I wonder what Mick Hagen is doing these days, it worked great for Mal...

 

[earl]

Very interesting. It's not official but it sounds likely.

I think it's a hail mary play just like the way Benji played the game.

It might work though. As @tigerap stated time will tell.

 

[tigertragic]

If true, DUMB DUMB DUMB decision

 

[stryker 69]

2 decades....
You mean 2 decades.

Most of that group fizzled out within 10 years didn’t they?
Either way, they arent a great benchmark.

 

[TIGERPOWER]

Since we are paying madge can we pay him to be defensive coach and do the screaming and breaking stuff.

I like the sound of exploding heads in the morning.

It's going to happen. Get over it and give us true fans a break from the negativity

Thanks

 

[sparci]

bruh you cant make this stuff up. I wonder what a benji post game press conference after a 40 pt drubbing looks like... cmon man whos teaching defense to our team it cant be benji

 

[851]

Do you know of any players Benji has convinced to play with WT?

He convinced Papalli to honour his deal, and he has been dealing with our juniors, so they will want to stay the course now, plus the kiwi boys might want in, still not sure he can coach at that level, but we will see

Hi everyone, my first post here.
I've been a Tigers supporter since a kid way back in about 1980/81 when I lived in Leichhardt. I live down in Shellharbour now with my wife and kids.
I just wanted to say I'm glad I joined this forum the day when we can see some positive news coming from the club. The media will slowly turn the screws elsewhere and we can start strengthening our roster.
Well, that's the plan.

 

[The Fresh Oil]

alright gents, probably going to get rinsed for this but here goes.

I'm stoked with this. Benji is a universally loved character that is adored by just about everybody in the league. this instantly improves our standing in the media and the player market. he understands the modern game because he's played it, and while he's not exactly qualified right now, by the time he serves his apprenticeship under one of the game's best ever coaches he will be ready.

we speak about identity and DNA all the time. Tim Sheens, Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah are as Wests Tigers as you can get.

You've convinced me. I'm In.
