We did not have a crack wt Reynolds because there was no chance he'd have signed as Madge was coach. Pretty well known Reynolds has zero time for Madge

Next crop + players who come here tend to drop performance.
We need First graders and to harden up our coaching team.
In order for a team to come from last place to near the top, you need a couple of superstars.
Proven superstars are not available to be recruited, so the only way is to find some potential superstars and that’s exactly what Wests Tigers are doing. Anyone who is a fair dinkum supporter cannot ask for anymore than that and should be riding the wave in anticipation the glory days from 2005 - 2012 will return, not forgetting we were also in a big struggle prior to finding a couple of emerging stars in Marshall and Farah in the lead up to 2005.
Of course there is no 100% guarantee some of the young players we are banking on will develop into the NRL stars we are hoping they will become and of course there is no 100% guarantee they will remain in Wests Tigers colours, but you need a plan and hope. That is what has been put in place by Wests Tigers and that’s all you can ask for in our current predicament.
Marshall and Farah have gone through this exact same process as young emerging players at a struggling club that nobody predicted would be successful, both went on to have long established NRL careers and played under some of the best coaches in the business, so I’m highly confident they have the expertise, have the club at heart and know what it takes to guide these young emerging players and the Wests Tigers as a club in the right direction.
Don’t expect miracles for another season or two, but if we stick to the plan and let Marshall and Farah develop and build the team they want, it’s a massive chance they will produce the on field results all Wests Tigers supporters have long been craving for.

Where did I imply that?
Lol
Delusional.
Farah and Marshall made the 8 how many times for WTs in 12 yrs? 3 times?
They were unreliable and inconsistent as players - for their talent we should’ve dominated for a decade.
The ship is going to sink next year.
At least management will hopefully go down with them.
It’s non believers such as yourself that are disillusional.
You expect overnight success, but have no idea or plan on how it can be achieved.

The problem is can these two guys get it right. I hope so but the noise out of Concord is in my opinion pretty poor around these two guys.
They've both been massive sooks in the past. I hope they can get it right and the talent coming through are good enough to move us up the ladder.

They aren't players now. They are coaches/managers. Can they deliver ? We are going to find out.

How they were as players means very little when it comes to what they are like as coaches. It's not relevant. Bellamy won't be remembered for his playing days.
They have some coaching experience now. They have a year of failure with Timmy showing them the ropes.
It's a hail mary play. I suppose we are all just on for the ride.

But they played for Wests Tigers, not Storm or Broncos. That they got one premiership is a absolutely monumental accomplishment at this club! That's to the moon level. So blessed to have that. Imagine supporting the team if we didn't have 05 and all the fun times with Benji
When hard task masters such as Wayne Bennett, Cameron Smith and Braith Anasta just to name a few speak very highly about Benji, that’s good enough for me.
I’ve seen the way Benji and Farah mix with our fans and the players to be certain they have the clubs best interests at heart and no doubt have the communication skills required.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I have no doubt whatsoever Benji and Farah with the assistance of John Morris, Chris Heighington and the likely inclusion of Mark O’Neill are the best placed people to lead the club to on field success in the near future.
We also need to remember that 5.5 wins out of every 10 games gets you in the top 8 sometimes a little less. The gap between 8th and last is small. The titans in 14th had a better for and against then the Raiders who made the finals. Now we shouldnt be happy coming 8th but next year we would ecstatic

Our problem is we don’t have many players who have played at the top end , semis , country etc
Bateman , Klemmer , Pappi , Appi , , Steph reserve couple minutes
we need to add at least 3 more very experienced guys on the field to help,these young guys out , we only need them for 2 to 3 years then the best of the young ones coming in will be sorted
Sullivan , The Brothers , , young and limited experience
Sezer , solid helper but we need more of them
experienced Centre , Wing , Is needed urgent , I would be going all out for these 2 positions , even contracted players break contracts as we know , wave the fat cheque book and get Mr Big shot Lee in like uncle Nick , game of golf for 50 k per hole , whoops I lost I ow you $ 50 k cash ,

I would also have
Billy slater help out our young fullback
Cam Smith to talk to the team on a winning Culture and how to go about it .
can’t hurt really , could be a great thing for Bulla to have one of the very best giving him tips and field play etc
Cam Smith , his record stands for its self he could get the ref on his team

I hope they don't get Mark O'Neill. That just sits wrong with me. Everyone else is good but results matter.

I'm hopeful they get it right and maybe it even works for us. It'll depend so much on the development talent we have on our books. Galvin, Fainu & Sullivan are the key ones. I was thinking that we have 3 of them. You only need two.
