Audio Clip - My thoughts on JT Sacking, New coach, Playing group and more

[Eddie]

Hi Tigers fans,

http://www.eye-of-the-tiger.org/everything/2017/3/20/audio-clip-tigers-sack-jason-taylor-my-thoughts

Obviously a dramatic for the club. Tried to put some of my thoughts together in the audio clip above. It is a bit long, however 20 minutes was what it ended up trying to give a balanced talk that covered relevant issues rather then just focusing on the sacking of the coach.

In the podcast I talk about in order…..

* Mt thoughts on Todays decisions (right, wrong or somewhere in between)
* My thoughts on JT as a coach overall and past coaches of the WT (good and bad)
* Who I think should replace him (good and bad candidates and somewhere in between)
* The Wests Tigers "Big 4" and playing group culture (how much responsibility they should take, plus their futures)
* How the rest of the year might pan out, is it a write off? can a new coach elevated this side straight away?

It is a little bit long , apologies about that.

Hope you enjoy,

I think the right decision has been in this case. Taylor never came across to me as having any idea at all. He was over confident and didn't deliver. I think we've gone backwards significantly.

Hopefully this stops the rot and we see some improvement from here on in.

Can everyone stop saying the term big 4\. I know the papers made it up but jeez its infuriating. Tedesco and woods are good but i wouldnt put moses or brooks in any rep side.

Its comdascending for the rest of the side too.

Sorry I had to vent 😂😂

I say it because it's easiest to type instead of naming each individual.
Also typing tedesco gives me all sorts of auto corrections.
That's what's infuriating.

I said the same weeks ago. On a good day 2 of them are worth feeding but normally just the one.

Great stuff again Eddie, very clear, precise and difficult to disagree with anything you raise

Never listened. Why is Tooveys name being thrown up if he is already coaching elsewhere ?

 

[Pokies]

Nice work Eddie, when will you get gallagher on to debate a few issues? Preferably after you both have a few schooners under your belts.

 

[Eddie]

I think we are mainly on the same page to be honest.

Just took different sides on the Farah/Taylor argument.

They are both gone now.
