He'd be great for us.
Not sure it'd be likely but we'd be stupid not to try and sign him.

I don’t know why you think it’s so crappy, Tiered PP seating is the same in most stadiums, it was only 10 yrs old when they did the upgrade in 2010. I guess some people are never happy thou. I personally don’t give a shit as I go to most stadiums.

I didn't know that @Yossarian . All I ever hear in here is that that don't have juniors.
Was just on facebook and came across this comment. I want to make it clear it's not my work but I shouldn't name the author for privacy reasons. It's a note of positivity in a season filled with a lot of gloom. It illustrates what's possible if you get your act together.
On a positive note, the Sharks got the wooden spoon in 2014 and beat Storm in the 2016 grand final, Roosters got the spoon in 2009 and made the grand final in 2010, Bulldogs got the spoon in 2002 and won the grand final against the Roosters in 2004 and Panthers got the spoon in 2001 and beat the Roosters in the 2003 grand final.
Hopefully, Wests Tigers can find a way to turn things around, the way that other clubs have done.

Yea they have the rorters feeder team and the bears.
We’ve got the spoon - how would anyone deserve an extension?
You’re telling me we should just let players like Hastings & Joffa walk?
I checked. They have CC Roosters and Sydney Roosters in Matts. They just ran one team in Ball. I’m not sure the Bears link is anything beyond being a feeder team - I don’t know if the NS Juniors are directly affiliated.

Yea i think you are right - bears are only a feeder club from the KOE cup

Klemmer is on a big contract reportedly.. While no doubt we could use his experience, I'd rather offer more to a younger player like Leniu.
In their eyes the system is great.
I’m telling you that we should look at all options for 24 and sign the best of them we can in the positions we need…
If those 2 are in that - then work on it, if not - then let them walk….
Any assistant coach will be the next Ciraldo at the Panthers. Give any coaching team the best roster in the comp and they do well, move them onto an ordinary roster and look at how Holbrook, O'Brian, Madge and co all go. It's all about the roster not the coach in the majority of times.
He has been assistant all year and in charge of our attack which under Madge was atrocious and lacked any form of structure. He had a job here and just didn't deliver this year.

Inner Wests Tigers and South Wests Tigers could be our names. To be one club.
WT White-WT Gold
So if he is successful at Penrith then clearly it falls back on the players - the ones that can execute and the ones that can't.
True gauge is when he is in charge of a team.
He did great when in charge of reserve grade and his one and only first grade game.
C'mon he isn't average. He is in the top 10 props in the game atm.
In the NRL for all players Klemmer is:
* 7th for average post contact meters per game - 66mtrs (last 4 games only 1 wests tigers player hit above 66 in a game, outside of that they struggle to make 30mtrs a game)
* 15th for run meters per game - 155mtrs, 3rd best forward. Joe is our best avg 124mtrs per game.
* 3rd for average offloads per game
His error rate, penalties, missed & ineffective tackles are great compared to forwards in the NRL as well.
He would be an instant sizeable uplift for our starting forward pack.
Yes he has agility concerns but so did Lodge and look at how he is being played & it's working very well at the Roosters and now everyone is like grab Lodge.
Sometimes wonder if people actually watch games and want us to improve or not these days.
Cue Bus2Terrigal.
