Agree. Mate, my passion / energy for the club is so low Im not sure I can get it back to 'better times'. Im worried a large percentage of the fan base has reached pretty much a 'dont care' stage. The Board and Management should be worried and yet the organisation seems to be going blissfully...

I think sensible additions for depth and gives them a chance.

Dunno why but for so many years WT ignored the trend for bigger, taller, faster wingers and forwards especially backrowers. In general competition we were behind due to that fact alone. I cannot believe that with all our junior competition teams we had none of these type of players to identify...

I wouldn't support another NRL team but probably a lukewarm interest in Wests Magpies in KOE level.

When visiting my parents I always had a soft spot for the Old Bar Pirates. Times gone bye. Couldn't support any other team than WT in the NRL, if they ever disappeared, wouldn't/couldn't support any other team at that level. My passion is already waning.

What about Dean Young as a potential coach? I think we need an ex forward who knows the business and can get our forward pack doing what they should. From a good forward pack and momentum, even an average backline can do some damage. I reckon with Luai and Latu we have resonably competent halves.

I'd love to get Gardiner back here.

To each their own, but I'm not giving up, nor do I want the club to fold. Anyway, the rest of the weekend is free and I can take my daughter to horse riding and not worry about how WT will go this weekend, that joy is already known :-)

Crap. Don't give up, WT have the power to change coach and coaching staff, we will never get the top ranked coaches at this stage. Doesn't mean we shouldn't look and consider options.

Well, if we do act against the coach and his staff, we need to start having conversations now with potential successors. We can't go into end of season, ask the coach to step down and then start searching for a coach. Next season training starts about start November so we would already be...

That would be a reasonable result. I'd be happy for him to be an assistant and keep learning but there is no chance a learner coach can hit the ground running in a first grade nrl team - even WT. But who can replace him?????

Luke Garner?

If this happens it does sort of play into the theory of players , whether from our juniors or cast offs from elsewhere, using the club as a shop window for their wares and going somewhere better as soon as they can. A not very survivable climate for our club to be in if that is the case for...

I think the entrance of Perth into the player market will be a huge disruption and make competition even harder for player signatures. I suspect many will hold off until end of next season to decide options, so in some way players free end of this season and unsigned for 2026 may be easier to...

I'd like to see WT go hard for Mariner & Gagai- probably getting one of them or hopefully both. Doueihi shouldnt be renewed and Toa may not extend his contract beyond next year. BUT, we have to find a dedicated goal kicker. Edit- I know May is coming in but Gagai can be good depth if we dont...

It's a predicament isn't it? I actually think both the pros and cons are pretty right. So which way to go is the $1 million dollar question isn't it? I don't think there are any outstanding coaches to replace him with but I think we definitely have to strengthen his support coaches with people...

Reckon WT should make a formal complaint to the NRL- will do no good but at least the dislike is on record. 'Stuff'ém

Who's the referee's & video ref allocated? Sad to say but they have a huge effect on the game these days

For me the question is that throughout this season WT have not developed consistent tactics and attacking and defensive structure-yes occasionally- but not even for a full game- ever under Benji. We have recruited more and better players than previously there but still lack a well rounded squad...

Cobbo is a QLD boy- he loves taking breaks to his home town at Cherbourg. Sydney and NSW in general would be too far and disruptive. Agree Alimoti is a good one to have a crack at.
