If you read what the players are saying that Tim is always changing as a coach and his style of coaching and constantly reinventing himself . If you have a coach who is prepared to change with the game and learn through the game as Sheens , Bennett and Smith obviously have we don't need change . Look at Bennett 19 years at a club and went through 2 generations of players . Just be thankful we still have one of the best coaches in the comp Warts and all as people say we all may not agree with every decision he makes but you can't deny he is the best fit at this stage and is likely to bring us more success with a bit of luck

Give it a rest fellas. The last 20 odd posts have a dab of sensible comment from both sides of the fence but the majority of it is just people slagging each other off…
Let's all look forward to this weekends game knowing that the news at the very least should stabilise the team a little.

Sheens stays with Tigers to finish the job

Fresh from inking a new deal that will tie him to the Wests Tigers until the end of 2014, Tim Sheens revealed that he still has some unfinished business at the club.
Sheens knocked back a huge offer to return to Penrith, reportedly worth $2 million over four years, in favour of a three-year deal with the Tigers and he admitted a big factor behind his decision to stay was the impressive young group of players coming through.
Now in his ninth season at the club, Sheens guided the Tigers to the 2005 premiership with a talented team built around young stars headed by Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah, both of whom remain key figures.
"I'm really pleased with my decision, I have a lot of unfinished business here which I'm looking forward to tackling," the Australian coach said in a statement.
Club chief executive Stephen Humphreys admitted he felt some relief: "We're very pleased of course, but I don't mind admitting I'm a little relieved as well," Humphreys told AAP.
"At the end of the day Tim had a few things to way up.
"We're all pleased he's decided to stay at Wests Tigers and complete some of the business that he's been heavily involved in to date.
"I know he's very keen to continue to develop the exciting young talent coming into the side and that will emerge for the next year or two in first grade.
"I know that was a motivating factor for him to stay. He's worked closely with the more senior players in this group for a few years too, so he wants to see the results of that as well."
Humphreys said the fact Penrith had weighed in with a hefty offer eventually worked in the Tigers' favour.
"Clearly the Penrith offer was a very tempting one, both in financial terms and in it's length of term," he added.
"It was an offer that certainly made him stop and have a think about it.
"But in hindsight it was probably welcome (by Wests Tigers) in some respects, sometimes you need a tangible alternative to realise what's important to you and help you weigh up what you want."
Humphreys also confirmed that Sheens would see out all three years as coach - contrary to reports which suggested the veteran mentor would be moved towards a coaching director role.
"The reports (that he would be considered as a coaching director in this contract) were off-the mark," Humphreys said.
"I can see Tim fulfilling such a role in the future of course, but right now he's just too effective as an NRL coach to take him away from that."

3 years is too long. signing him until the end of 2012 would have been enough for now, and then wait how we go this year before deciding if we want him for longer. oh well

Well done Tigers, I for one are glad the Mr Sheens is staying put. As bizarre as some of his selections may be, as strange as some of his interchange methods are, I wouldnt swap him for anyone. GO THE TIGERS!!!!

How could you be happy about Moltzen playing fullback :question: :question: :question: He doesn't even do the basics right. He doesn't run hard on kick returns and sometimes passes it to the winger who is in a worse position than he is. And this is coming from someone who actually likes Moltzen, but he just isn't a fullback. I don't blame Sheens for trying him at fullback last year but sometimes these experiments go on for too long when it isn't working.
