He's probably thinking that the curse that he put on us for dumping him is working!

Lets hope that Mick can do what Tim did with what he inherited from Terry Lamb. Footballs a funny game … You just never know what will happen ... That's what keeps it interesting !!
I don't think we have really hit rock bottom since winning the comp ... I think you need a watershed year before you can start the climb back up again. This could be that year.
But we'll be back .... Nothing surer than that.

He got us in that mess we have to clean it out and start a new era.
He is a reasonable man, he is probably disappointed the teams going so crappy.He is getting paid to relax and not do much, laughing.
The managements decision to sack him while paying him has got to be one the tigers greatest blunders, everyone seems to be still in denial about this.
The guys here who claim that we are lumbered with the bad players he left us are full of crap in my opinion

Despite what many believe Tim is probably very sad at what the Tigers are going through
And just in case this thread is about Moltzen ,probably inconsolable and very sore

I'd say Tim would not be happy about the Tigers current situation.
In regards to Tim, I think his downfall at the Tigers was that he lost control of the team. A coach is paid to get results and when he doesn't he pays the price.
If you look at the really GREAT COACH's…Alex Ferguson, Wayne Bennett....they never allowed a player to disrupt the team moving forward...ie David Beckham, Wally Lewis...these players were like mini GODS but when it became clear that they did not fit the team or the club anymore those coach's had no problems moving those players on. IMO Tim Sheens did not address that enough at the Tigers and it cost him his job.
The Tigers have the same issues. When some players command more authority than the coach, its only a matter of time that things start to fall to pieces and that is where we are now. Yes we have injuries, but so do many sides and they pull together and pull through. Some of our most senior players are letting the side down big time IMO and they need to start earning their salaries.
As coach, Mick Potter has a big job to do and that is get the team winning. If 2013 is going to be a rebuilding year where results are not the most important thing then he has to start looking at every player and decide if they are the future of Wests Tigers. No positions should be safe at the WT. It should be based on form alone and if that means that some players are moved on at the end of the year or some players spend time in NSW cup then so be it.
This year will show what Mick Potter has as a coach and how he rebuilds the Tigers for the next generation coming through.
Rather than being disappointed by results, I actually see this as a very exciting time if the rebuild is done properly.

Ha Ha, beat me to it. I was going to question which Time we were talking about.
Sheens wasn't a bad guy, I'm sure he isn't laughing. Probably thinking he dodged a bullet with the Injuries though.
