Sounds like AD and Benji worked it out like gentleman, as we expected they would.

Well done.

Seems AD got his way.
Bye Jarome and Morris.
Wonder what the issue with Morris is.

Morris is the only assistant we have with NRL first grade experience...however he is also our defensive coach so he has not covered himself in glory there. Whilst our defense was solid in the first 7 or so games it was not system based it was more line speed, scramble and hard hitting...you cant maintain that for a full season.

Sorry the OP comment was "walked out" and I was asking how many walked out under Benji. Most of the guys you list were headhunted by other clubs or asked to leave by Tigers.

Tigers turnover is not really different to other low-ranked clubs, which is self-fulfilling because winning clubs don't tend to change things up.

I don't want to say I said so on Saturday, that this would happen, but I did. Not hard to apologise and move on. We all make mistakes and AD did. Let's see what happens with selection tomorrow. I hope Benji picks him at lock to make a statement as to who is in control.
 
Club has dead set learnt nothing in 15 years .... weak CEO and weak Coach.....

The player that refused to play now abousletley shitting on everyone connected to the club has all the power..... He isn't even a decent player.....

This club is an absolute joke .....

Im backing Benji.

He needs some high quality assistants around him and despite how much I like Morris & Hodgo as players + people, on the outside, it doesn't look like they've assisted.

Ben Gardiner + one of Elijah Taylor, Josh Jackson or Dale Finucane for mine.

Or one of the roosters assistants.
Let get Benji the help he deserves.

Problem we have is the multi millionaires that could all buy the club are in their 70's and 80's, we have been crap for so long that we have lost a generation or two of fans. Arthur and Harry's kids are probably following other clubs.....I have to threaten and bribe my kids to remain loyal to the WT...its almost child abuse.

V'Landys likes to buy pubs, he must at least be looking.

Ben Hornby must have been close to securing the Dragon's coaching role. I believe he would be a very good selection as assistant coach.

Not the worst shout though, is it?

It is. Any more nepo hires are the worst option.

We’re a professional (allegedly) rugby league club, not a casual weekend comp where you and your mates get together.

Hire professionals who have experience in coaching and aren’t low-IQ buffoons like Heighnington who I would t even trust to put out the cones. That is the bare minimum for a professional sports club yet we struggle even with that because ‘muh 05 premiership’.
