Damage control

[supercoach]

IMO Taylors tactics or game plans are not flash, but I keep looking at our roster I wonder how we win any games at present,to many kids,lack of pace, lack of depth and lack of experience. This year it is going to get ugly, but with some clever recruiting things should get better next year–-Although we have all been told that many times in the past

Happy doesn't believe we can do two things at once…

He isn't the only one.

 

[happy_tiger]

And if they never fix the defence it will be Groundhog Day season after season after season until we get thrown out of the comp or amalgamated

Are Wests Tigers fans the most impatient in the comp ?? :deadhorse:

Seriously :brick:

The boys haven't got it in 11 rounds , yes we're impatient !!!
There has to be a balance between defence and attack .
I suppose if you had it your way we'd be kicking on tackle 1 so we could practice defending more ??

Hobbo stop expecting blokes that have played 20-30 games to be hard nosed professional players of 100+ games

They are learning and will continue to learn and get better

Count how many players in our side that have less than 50 games experience

Exactly … They are kids with 20-30 games under there belts ... That's why Pasty Face needs to give them some leeway when it comes to their attack FFS .

Because the only things most of these kids know is NYC , they have little idea what works at the top level and how to make it work

But that's ok , we'll just keep playing Benjiball and not work out why it does not work and complain about that as long was we lose 46-28 that's fine and have 100 + tries scored against us season after season

Even Benji in less than 12 months has worked it out and I never thought he would

 

[stevetiger]

with many (including me) sick to death of hearing about the past as well.

This really annoys me. Its the previous coaches that are too blame for the team not performing well now.

I'm not and not expecting frigging benji ball , but what's wrong with having say .. A set play from a scrum or and old fashion run around in attack ??

By the time you've been banging your head against brick walls and flogging dead horses , no one will want to sign for us and players who aren't enjoying being here will want out ….

I know our defence is shit and it needs to improve , but there has to be a BALANCE !

What is the point in having Zero attack and defending for 74 minutes then the team is that knackered we let in a try at the death and lose ?!

All i know is JT is making Potter look like he was a Master Coach :laughing:

 

[happy_tiger]

At the moment defence is it

Maybe if one of the other coaches over the last 15 years had a big enough set we could of fixed it earlier

But they didn't because they weren't prepared to deal with what is happening now

I will ask the same question again "If there is an easier solution why haven't we tried it before "

Exactly.

Jt didn't recruit this lot.

His trying to break the cycle.

Jt could of made c grade recruitment choices like sheens and potter to save his job. But his taken the hard road.

 

[Defiant]

Followed the magpies for 15 years and bled Wests Tigers for the last 15\. imo the club should be in damage control.

We could not have caught the dogs, Canberra, Newcastle or especially NQL at a better time and look at how that worked for us.

Last weeks game tipped me over the edge. I just don't care anymore. No longer will I plan my life around our games.

If NRL is about Richards, Naqaima and another random back taking and ABSOLUTE one out hit up with the odd forward chiming in before we bomb I will give it a miss.

Brooks at hooker is pure Sheenius as is removing Sue from the second row just as he started to find his legs there makes no sense.

I really want the coach and team to succeed but will no longer invest emotionally of financially going forward.

I dont think I have ever enjoyed this forum as much as I do lately…

Taylor has done wonders for this place, lol, split it down the guts. The Haters exaggeration is killing me, love your work.

You just know they had Jason Taylor posters up on their bedroom wall when they were younger.

Some you would have to guess still have them up.

 

[happy_tiger]

Lol Hobbo….
Happy doesn't believe we can do two things at once...

What proof do you have that we can do it on a consistent basis ??

You contradict yourself , you talk about your hatred of NYC and then see we have many players just out of NYC

Hahah that is so funny. Not really but someone who thinks a coach will see out his full contract under 2 years of pressure, now thats a good laugh.

 

[Flippedy]

Tigers were on the news, and Taylor is going to persist with Brooks going to hooker, Brooks is not impressed as he was interviewed,and neither am I.We are struggling to score points so he moves our halfback,smacks of a bloke without a clue I reckon.

I really don't understand this at all. The guy should know better, he was a halfback himself! I bet he never wanted to be shoved into the hooking role. Why is he trying to hamper Brooks' career?

Whats more he absolutely refused to move Moses, went on record that it wasnt good for his career and he was our best option.

Seems hypocritical to now use Brooks this way.

I have no proof as I have never, ever, not once, ever claimed we could defend our line and for the friggen 100th time…I AGREE WE NEED TO IMPROVE OUR DEFENSIVE STRUCTURES AND ATTITUDES!!!!!

I have also never been a fan of promoting the kids the way we do but when you have a club so mismanaged and with talent scouts who couldn't be bothered looking further than their postcode, you end up with a side like ours.

 

[sheer64]

I just hope against the Titans that we try some 5th tackle options instead of a crap midfield bomb, unless Gordon is playing, then bomb the sh#t out of him. Brooks to hooker is probably a way of teaching him to defend. Even if we don't have the players to win every week we can still build a culture that we will go down fighting!
Is there a better option than Taylor, who knows, but we have committed to three years **his way**.
