Scott Fulton sacked

[rugbygoated]

My guess is one of Bud or Latu will fall behind in the pecking order after 24 season is over..Tartak will get into their ear and advise there are better opportunities elsewhere to be a starting 6...and at $500k pa for either of them and Galvin coming thru,thats not exactly the worst outcome for WTS!!

Can't fit them all in. We can't play them at 14 either if both Da Silva and Simpkin stay. Sullivan gets his shot this year, if he doesn't go well, try him at 14 with Fainu 6

Ray Hadley will devote the first hour of his show when he returns on what a stupid decision it was to sack him.

 

[liltiger]

Wonder who will come in to replace him

 

[innsaneink]

Benjis got enough on his plate without worrying about recruitment, unless its just the other guys running names by him for a yay or nay

 

[rugbygoated]

Anyone who hasn't watched Richo's interview with Jam, have a watch when you can. Really good insight

 

[KingRobbie]

Wonder who will come in to replace him

“The Tigers won’t pursue a replacement, instead deploying a recruitment committee comprised of Richardson, Marshall and interim head of football Matthew Betsey.”

Hadley sooks about everything and has his mates in the media that he defends to no end no matter how bad. He is a massive hypocrite and whinger

 

[Telltails]

They had a review for a reason. It would have been dumb not to act on it.

 

[WesternSuburbsBoy]

I hope this will bring success to the tigers in the coming years . Just one worry for me is that RICHO is only signed for 6 months , this needs to be extended ASAP

I still can't believe we actually pulled off a signing this huge. Forget any player signing this is actually the biggest in the clubs history. It's hard to believe we have someone this good & professional running the club after watching dumb & dumber be incapable of their jobs for so long.

DT reporting Head of Wellbeing and Education Alan Thompson gone and an unnamed gear steward. were there more than they're reporting?

Yes, Vince Marando.

Sorry totally missed that part

 

[Kaito]

Yes, Vince Marando.

Say it ain't so! The man is an icon at the club.
He must have been telling folks our business

 

[Papacito]

Fired over the phone in Richo's second week in the job.

Richo has been very hands on with recruitment in his previous roles so this is no surprise.

 

[851]

If Peters opens his overly large cake trap, I'd expect Richo would happily fill it! I don't think Peters will take on one of the best administrators in the sport.

You may underestimate his ego and stupidity

From the Australian:

Fulton has spoken exclusively to this masthead about the decision after he received a phone call from the club’s chief executive Shane Richardson on Tuesday morning to say his services were no longer required.

“It’s disappointing because I had such high hopes for the Wests Tigers and the direction we were heading in with recruitment,” Fulton said.

“But I really enjoyed my time under the previous management and what we were able to achieve in a short period.

“These things happen in rugby league and we’ll move on and look for the next opportunity.

I wish the club all the best.”

Sounds to me like a healthy payout to shut his mouth

The paranoia is up there with the paranoia about Gus and the Dogs swooping in late and grabbing Luai.

Luai said himself, he almost signed with the Dogs, took him until almost the press conference to decide, so there was cause for concern

Think that was just him being diplomatic and
respectful to other clubs. It came out early that
he told mates he was going to the Tigers, it was
why it was reported for weeks that we were
front runners. Leading a team and playing under
Benji was always going to Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon re-joining his
mates at another club - his motivation is to be
the man and prove others he can. Richo & him
are being a bit coy I think, they both knew I'd say

If Vinnie has been moved - I'd be stunned....
He's been looking after pretty much all the Football Staff since they were kids.

Honestly I think this is better. Too many chefs spoil the broth.
