So JT says we needed to fix the score more than them approach and the soft underbelly. While i was excited by the honesty i always was thinking that
during that era and style of play we should have won the comp in 2010 and were close in 2011 and every other year were almost always in or around the top 8 with a six weeks to go.

Now I'm not saying this is a great or satisfactory result but its what we were and should have been matched or improved to justify the sheens and then potter sackings.

Now all we have is a structure and path where we cant score more points than them and cant stop any being scored because we cant defend any better than most of the teams over the past 10 yrs (last yr included)

Most importantly the restructure will bring a last place / wooden spoon finish that we have never had on the path we were so desperate to get off.

Even today seeing Todd Payton respond about it made me think that the existing and former players and coaches are probably over being criticised by someone who has produced less than they did.

I think we are under achievers and have been since existence.

However for Taylor to come in and continue to bag ex coaches and administrators (whilst we are running last) i think it is childish and tells us about his character.

He talks the club downs like it has been in the cellar for 10 years straight. Yes we have been poor and not achieved excellence by any means. However we did make the Top 4 3 times under Sheens and most other years were close to the Top 8 expect for big injury tolls.

Now Sheens was a bloody stubborn man who made myself and the rest of the fourm go into meltdown on several occasions with his team selections. However he achieved a hell of amount more then JT in rugby league and at our club and to say his philosophy was to simply outscore is a bit of an insult.

JT is really a low sort of character isn't he. Potter had class. This guy has spin.

On twitter said never once did the Tigers in 05 discuss just outscoring the opposition. Said the defence was no the best in the league but it was when it counted in the semi finals.

Taylor has taken a lot of pot shots not surprised someone has finally piped up

I love that. Great work from Payten.
