    Madge Maguire - Mega Thread

    Yet look at the players Madge has brought to the club or tried to attract, hardly clean skins how does that sit with your morals?

    ‘It’s the truth’: compelling new WT doco

    “NRL standard yet” is that because they haven’t been given an opportunity yet or the coaching hasn’t got them to that level

    Madge Maguire - Mega Thread

    It would be difficult especially when they resigned him not even 12 months ago & he was not exactly a hot commodity.

    There is plenty out there at the moment, contracts mean nothing. I heard that the expansion being put on hold has forced the hand of players managers who are trying to get new deals. In the words of a player manager based in Brisbane “it’s a buyers market” . There is still 3 months to go before...

    Pathways. What pathways?

    Excellent post, Retaining or promoting Lambkin is a must he is one of very few shining lights for the year & someone that people want to play for. Talent identification is extremely difficult in COVID times so you need your finger on the pulse & be very trusting of your staff which is a strength...

    Pathways. What pathways?

    I think identification of jnr talent at the club is at its strongest it’s been for a long time, I would have liked the club to have had a vision or strategy of taking back the farm, make a statement of getting Paps even if it meant paying him $1.2m per year & also chasing another jnr that has...

    I can’t imagine The Broncos entertaining Brooks, Gamble has a 2 year deal on the table, Croft has taken up his option so his situation is no different to Corey Oates where the Broncos won’t pay for him to play elsewhere when the option is in his favour, they also have Paix & Walters as well as...

    Team List vs Canterbury Bulldogs

    It was interesting that in the press conference Madge went on about players he has given an opportunity to, then he selects MCK in the centre’s. If the Tigers lose this weekend surely his position is untenable.

    South’s are also interested in Milford, he is not a centre he has been tried there plenty of times in the lower grades & it was embarrassing, Hoffman (when his body is right) & Ogden are both better prospects.Laurie in his first year of fullback has already shown more. He has plenty of flashes...

    He is not a centre, interesting is last night one of the things that was mentioned,was he has told the Broncos that he has already received 3 offers from clubs , 1 of them the Tigers & is waiting for an offer from Warriors ( not that you would believe it coming from him). The other thing was...

    CEO

    That’s gold, I’m not sure if this was meant to be serious, maybe he could help sell off West’s Ashfield to create stability,it worked well at Balmain

    CEO

    Well said, I don’t know the inner workings of the club but he does come across as one of the better administrators the club has had. I also understand & share the frustrations of many on here but there can’t be wholesale changes the club needs stability. I think the only reason Madge will keep...

    no chance, it would be political suicide. Dr Jeanette Young would be one of the most popular people in Qld. Look at the crowd numbers they are abysmal, most people would rather have no NRL rather than be in lockdown

    Wests Tigers Team v NZ Warriors..

    The hard thing is there is no where for players not selected to go to improve their game

    Junior Pauga

    While his defence wasn’t great there were excuses with Brooks & Joe inside of him due to losing 2 players. I would love to see Ogden join the bubble & given a crack before the end of the year.

    The tigers have had discussions this is not new, he is still under contract & had been given permission to explore his options as he wants to play fullback there is still a lot to play out especially with the talent coming onto the market next year,I don’t think the Tigers are being led by...

    The Tigers offer was larger but included the rest of this season so the disparity is not that large
