Great opportunity for City stars: Dwyer

Wests Tigers GPS Technician and former player Simon Dwyer has this year continued in his role as Assistant Coach of the City Origin team.
Dwyer told Wests Tigers TV the Club's three representatives will take the experience of camp back to Wests Tigers training.
"The week has been good," said Dwyer. "All the boys are gelling together really well.
"They're going good.
"It will be a really good opportunity for them to learn off the senior players in the team and taste a bit of rep football."
Dwyer is still heavily involved in rugby league, despite sustaining a long-term injury. City coach Brad Fittler brought Dwyer onto his staff last season.
"It gives me something to do since I'm not playing NRL at the moment," said Dwyer.
"I was pretty surprised when Freddy gave me the call and invited me down. I was happy with that."

OHHH assistant coach!! I misread that the other day as assistant referee; was so confused given the arm issue. This makes so much more sense. :laughing: :laughing:

Anyone know why he must still have a sling?

doesnt have any feeling in his hand i believe, very long term and serious injury.

I liked it how he said he's not playing NRL at the moment….. With that determination he will surely one day be coaching the tigers to a premiership.

I love this guy…
He seems really genuine in every interview / everything I've seen from him.
Even the JWH hit - this guy is all class.

Not sure what his future holds but I wish him the best, he deserves it.
Was easily one of the best up and coming young second rowers before his injury.
Hopeful he can come back someday.
