JAC

[OldMagpie]

The beauty of following Wests is you will never get that anxiety that fans get when your team makes the semi’s. I know full well , I can just relax and watch the other clubs fight it out, year after year.

Hey .....!

So Dogs just announced Former All Blacks coach as a High Performance Consultant.... Gee wiz Barrett is on fire and not holding back.. I was holding out hope we would still get JAC but I have no hope left now that we get him and its either the Dogs or Souths unfortunately..
We need something to change urgently as the media are only going to get stronger on us moving forward and make it even harder to recruit the quality ones.

***I am seriously at a loss of what's going on with the club....
We have never been this quite*** so either we have got rid of the leaks and announcements are coming or they are packing there desks up and moving on out the back door...
I love this club but I say increase our JAC offer and give us fans something to be excited about because we have sure earned it over the last 10 years..

Tigers fans: Hasnt this club learned anything from the Latrell fiasco where they played the whole thing out in the media and made us a laughing stock?

Also Tigers Fans: Why arent we hearing anything from the club about the negotiations with JAC? Why wont they tell us something? ANYTHING! Why are we reading more in the media?

I’m amazed the Dragons, Roosters and Sharks haven’t signed JAC, along with the other Sydney clubs.

No ones laughing at them are they?

Seems giving them time only works against us. Take it or leave it with a set withdraw of offer date. In the interim continue looking for good players stuck behind better players at their existing club.

I don't understand this POV in relation to JAC.

Hi is not legally able to sign anything until 1 November, and even then he is only able to sign for 2022.

Apparently we and his management have agreed to terms.

So what is the point of threatening to withdraw the offer before he is legally able to sign it?


Because we are a laughing stock apparently. No idea why we are supposedly a laughing stock but the other clubs chasing him are not. No one has signed him yet. Some fans have self esteem issues I think.


And some are happy to miss the Semis 9 year in a row. Were all different.

How will signing JAC change what happened in the last 9 years?

Too slow... Wyatt Earp over here

The reason those other Sydney clubs are not chasing, is because they are not silly enough to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars on a player and then praying that he turns out to be a full back.

More like the click bait isn’t there.

 

[Viking Warrior]

It's a hard sell at the moment, temporarily poor facilities, poor onfield results and Madge while a proven coach seems to have a poor reputation with players. Our only real hope is paying overs atm.

It won’t. It’s why we struggle to land a big name. No elite player wants to join a perennially struggling Club

 

[OldMagpie]

We are that desperate to sign anybody of any calibre that we would allow JAC to play prop if he wanted to

Hey Freddy,

You forgot to mention that storm were shopping paps to every club in the Comp without success at the start of the season.

You also forgot that ado car was a South's junior, moved to the sharks, then was given his debut by the tigers. He was offered a contract by the tigers to stay. Was not "let" go

Tedesco was also offered a huge contract to stay, but he chose to jump onto a successful team rather than try to build one.

Nathan Brown was let go, but has bounced around a few clubs and only now selected for reps. And he is in the squad at this stage, he has hardly been a main stay for rep teams since he left the tigers.

How was fittlers retention, recruitment and development when he was coach of the roosters? He didn't last very long at the club that doesn't develop, only buys players.

Seriously Freddy, stick to the mung beans and yoga mate. You have already proven you can't run a club team top to bottom.
Just concentrate on picking the 30 best players for 3 games a year. No salary cap etc to worry about.

Seriously, he is becoming Gus Jr.

100% correct. He comes across as being very very harsh, Bellamy comes across as harsh but he also has a reputation of good management skills With his players. Where is our coach looks like something out of SAS commando show that is on TV at the moment

 

[Masterton]

What did Fitler say?

"I was disillusioned when the Wests Tigers couldn't find a spot for him," Fittler said of Papenhuyzen. "There were a few [decisions] there where whatever they did during that period, it was just wrong.

"So someone got it wrong, whoever is was, and I don't care.

Just remember Freddy only had Rorters and Riff classes. Exactly like Gus.

 

[Masterton]

Ted made a similar comment. To be fair to them, it seems like there were directly asked by a journo what they thought about the former Tigers in the team.

I am so sick and tired of the media constantly bashing the WT over the lose of JAC and Paps.....we stuffed up I agree but let’s ALL move on!

 

[twentyforty]

Appears to be a few positive pollyannas on here. And that’s ok, but at least come up with some honest disclosure for your attitude. We hear nothing from the club, I suppose because they have nothing. How about those pollyannas stop trying to ridicule fans who are simply hanging out for some good news, asking to be swayed by some tiny indication that the club has decided to develop as a professional organisation.

This dinkle is starting to give me the irrits. Might be time to stop watching 9 all together.
