    SMH Article 'We’ve lost faith in them’: Balmain consider shock exit from Wests Tigers merger

    Benny Elias' glowing report of meeting with Shane Richardson & public conjecture re: Barry O'Farrell as Chairman indicative of behind the scenes turbulence. Usually money, power or both the incentive for this type of destabilisation & aggressive moves for change. Assume NRL will back the current...

    POLL - Maguire 2019/Bennett 2020

    Assuming no Bennett in 2019 I would lock up Maguire ASAP. He is at least the equal of Cleary without the baggage or B.S. Bennett is too unpredictable to count on going forward.

    Scott Prince would have been handy in 2010/2011.

    2010 v 2011

    From memory in 2010 v the Roosters a Benji Marshall punch/scuffle with Mitchell Pearce in lead up reversed a Tigers try. In 2011 v N.Z Farah & Marshall blew a slim lead with a poor last tackle option at end of the game. N.Z gained possession & mopped up a spilt bomb by Moltzen with Inu scoring...

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    Phil Gould has probably effectively scuttled the Tigers/Cleary era. Coach Cleary contracted to Tigers 19/20…so can't be in charge of Tigers player roster planning espec in 2020. Gould has lost a lot of respect from many with his tactics. Best for Tigers to squeeze Penrith for compensation &...

    Cleary,Bennett or Madge

    Yeah Magic Moltzen debuted five years after Benji & Robbie n 2008. _Go Robbie, Go Benji_ after R26 :slight_smile:

    Cleary,Bennett or Madge

    How about this question to Ivan "_next season, would you like to coach the Tigers or the Panthers_?". We all know what his answer would be. Hard to keep the faith until Penrith name their next coach. If he stays hope Ivan keeps clearing more deadwood. Great farewell to Robbie & Benji in R26 v...

    Ivan wants out ASAP. Nice knowing you, have a nice life. Blood is thicker etc We deserve better. As long as snake Gould compensates set Ivan free & get a "hard edge" coach who will take no prisoners. Also let's clear even more deadwood starting with Benji & Robbie. They were champions, would be...

    Would be best for all concerned if Robbie & Benji finish this year.

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    My guess is Ivan Cleary would jump to Penrith at the end of this season if it was possible. Am not elated or relieved by his "commitment" to honour his contract, as if he had a choice. Onwards & upwards for the Tigers this season but the seed has been planted with too many variables to predict...

    Lucky for Ivan & Penrith the Tigers didn't show up & lost the "must win" games against the Dogs & the Gold Coast. He would have been in a real stew if we made the finals. p.s how stupid does Gould think the public is? Also, how desperate is he to try & pull off such a slimy act?

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    Coach Cleary is damaged goods. Tigers need to screw Penrith for compensation. Use funds to get best available coach on 2 year contract. First point of order sort out current roster. Benji & Robbie are way past it. Couldn't help us jag a G.F appearance or comp win post 2005 when they were at...

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    I didn't see this coming… Then again, I couldn't believe it when Captain Tiger Aaron Woods bolted albeit not while under contract. If the early release demand from coach Cleary is true it would be a stunning act of betrayal. Phil Gould's integrity & legacy will also come under scrutiny from the...

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    Yeah, given their personal & commercial interest in the Tigers they will make sure we won't be railroaded. As long as we are compensated & somehow manage to sign a decent coach I am happy for Ivan Cleary to drive his bus back to the mountains.

    Hope there is a big law firm helping the Tigers get maximum Panthers pokies dollars compensation for Ican Nearly's early release.

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    My assumption is that Ivan Cleary & Justin Pascoe have a strong friendship so if the Judas act is to happen Cleary & Pascoe (& probably Gould lol) somehow will have to formulate a plan of action that will appease Tigers fans & the Tigers Board. Tigers major sponsor Brydens Lawyers may soon have...

    Ivan Cleary - THREAD..

    If Cleary does the dirty no great loss. Tedesco the only "big loss" in recent years. Addo-Carr also to a lesser extent. Coach Cleary is a buddy of Tigers CEO Pascoe so if Cleary was let go from his contract 2 years early I assume there would be an exit strategy that would not leave the Tigers...
