Benji 2025 and Beyond

[yeti]

Benji has done enough 2024 - 2025 to show improvement in his coaching, the squad and overall performance.

2023 points differential -290 wins 4
2024 points differential -287 wins 6
2025 points differential -101 wins 7

Assuming we win another 3 games and keep score lines similar he has brought improved players and performance to the table. These are facts however we have a long way to go.

Jeez, I like optimism, but 'assuming we win another 3 games' is next level. I hope you are right Tyga.

What a thing to celebrate. Mediocrity earns you another year old son.

Yeah nothing really to crow about

On todays performances both coaches lost

When is Benji getting chopped again?

I don't think he'll get sacked but if you were ever going to get fired after a win, today was the day haha

This is embarrassing.

Its a fan run page right?

Its a fan run page right?

ahh I didn't see that. I thought it was OG.

It's still clutching at some serious straws. How old will api and richo be by the time we get the points needed for a top 4 finish at this rate?

Get someone from outside in now. Marshall needs a mentor, he needs to check his ideas and have someone coach him up. It's a shame that Dave Furner couldn't slot into that role... You know Mentor Marshall, try to punch out Farah! !?!?!!? But maybe there are others in league who can do this.

The mentor thing's getting a bit long in the tooth isn't it? Benji is looking way more jaded than he did early in 2024. I think he's nearly there. It's pretty safe to say he delivers the goods in 2026 or its time for the next thing. I drink benji kool aid by the pint but somehow this all needs to start coming together...

anyway, what did David bloody Furner do that we need from Benji? Finished 2nd last with a side stacked with rep players?? I think Benji's on track and doesn't need lessons on that one.

Its a fan run page right?

Yeah i think so
...thought it was WTs official at first

For those saying they'll take the win but we played terrible, I'd take that over playing well and not coming away with the win.

For moral any wins better than no win. To play our worst and still win is far better than playing our best and losing. Step in the right direction.

It's a thing to celebrate when you've come last 3 years in a row.

I don't understand your comments, really. Benji doesn't get another year because Tigers now have more wins than 2024, he gets another year because that's the contract we gave him.

And then when you are last 3 years in a row, it is something to do better for once, even if it's a small better. It's the exact opposite of Madge where we got a little worse every year, and he was given almost 4 years chance.

But also this is just social media, it's about clicks and views more than the actual story. They need to generate content every week and they aren't even the official Tigers account.

This is embarrassing.

yep. Stil think he'd be a good assistant coach, but we need a tactical coach.

Most wins since 2021 with 6 games to go & compared to previous seasons we have improved on every metric at this stage of the year. Genuine question how aren't we improving & how quickly did you expect the team to turn it around after coming last 3 years in a row?
