The Wests Tigers are on the verge of signing former champion halfback Brett ‘Noddy’ Kimmorley to head up their pathways and junior development.

They hope it will ensure the next Campbelltown juniors of the calibre of James Tedesco, Jarryd Hayne and Israel Folau are captured and kept in their system.

The former NSW Blues and Kangaroos playmaker already has a tremendous knowledge of the game’s best young players through his coaching of emerging Blues for the NSWRL.

“We’ve refocused our strategy over the last couple of years,” Wests Tigers CEO Justin Pascoe said. “That means investing in pathways with the acquisition of someone like Noddy.

“He’s got a great reputation in the game and he’ll be outstanding.

“Imagine him working with young halves when we set up our academy.

“To have him talking to kids and their parents will be invaluable.”

The Wests Tigers have also signed one of Australian cricket’s top development strategists to work alongside Kimmorley.

Matt Betsey headed up cricket’s top coaching academy and has overseen the growth and progress of many youngsters now playing Sheffield Shield and Test cricket.

“These appointments are as much about retention as development,” Pascoe said. “We’re going along well. Our reserve grade side is sitting second, our 21’s are running first, our sponsorship and memberships are at record levels.

“Financially our balance sheet was minus $7 million — now it’s positive. This is why we can now go and invest in people like Noddy and Matt in such crucial roles.”

Friday night’s win over St George Illawarra has kept alive the Tigers’ hopes of playing finals football for the first time in 10 years.

I remember Kent said it wasn't clear what we were trying to achieve. If it wasn't obvious before, it sure is now.

I reckon a couple more lean years are ahead of us, but if our recruitment stays on the right track, bolstered by the best young talent, we'll be strong going forward.

Didn't a reputable coach say awhile ago that winning starts in the front office. Let's hope our front office is still reputable.

Because Noddy was a Sharks player / Legend and Buzz follows and supports the Sharks
They probably go way back
Hopefully this might finally result in some favourable pieces by the old Buzzard
 
Our NSW cup and flegg sides are top or close so foar in 2021.

This is similar to Penrith a few years back and bodes well for the years to come.

Now we need to spend the available cap to bolster this very young squad with some hardmen and the future could be bright

He's been on the tequilas lately. I doubt he has any memory of writing this article.
 
I'm super curious how you keep a guy like Israel Folau in the Wests junior catchment when he moves to Brisbane at 15 years old, because his dad got a job there. Typical stupid Buzz article.

He's not really though, is he? It's a brief, 'just the facts' reports that - unlike most of his garbage - doesn't tell the audience what to think. If it was about the Sharks I guarantee it be be full of "the Sharks have all but secured their future as a rugby league powerhouse" - all we get is a straight report.
 
We had Noddy before. I don't remember too well, but I'm pretty sure he left and most weren't disappointed in him doing so.
