Not sure if posted already but interesting to see the future captains opinion

That makes me question him as a future captain. Shows a lack of maturity.

What it shows to me is that the players back the coach and have little respect for management.
I have started liking them again.

I don't care if he likes them or not, that is not the way to deal with it.

I don’t agree.
Upper management, especially recruitment are the problem.

So you would bag your employers publicly, or support someone else who was?

He hasn’t bagged anyone out. He has shown support for his coach who has been bashed from pillar to post recently.

By supporting someone criticising senior management.

Hardly … he’s just giving his coach support
Let’s be honest here , you’ve never been a fan of Doueihi from the get go mate

I think he is our best 5/8th, best centre and future captain, I think he has areas of his game he needs to improve though?

yes social media christian beliefs and you'll get rewarded

He should be captain next season. We need a voice that plays hard, with passion and loves hard work. Our management need to sack themselves.

Needs to learn his position first, I think he will be a good captain, I want him making smarter choices than that though.

Anyway, its not the crime of century and I have made my point, I will leave it here.

Sounds like Douhie is reading his own press and believing his own hype, he has had some ordinary games too in 2021
He doesn't walk on water or the messiah for us at 6
He will be lucky to be in the squad for 2022 as a centre
If Brooks and Hastings fire He won't get a look in for the halves and will likely blow up and leave if he has to play centre

One player we like. I’m sure there’s some white ants.

So its ok to white ant as long as he is white anting someone who you don't like?

He didn’t address anyone specifically. He supported his head coach.

By agreeing with someone being critical of the management, I have had jobs where I would be heavily disciplined for that.

Geez it’s a new world when we’re questioning a bloke on the correct social media etiquette

It is in my code of conduct, was in my code of conduct at my previous jobs and its in about 20 code of conducts I have written for small to medium businesses.

Anything in there about telling journos confidential information?

lol of course there is, but if my board of directors did that and I responded to that publicly I still wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

Fair call

 

[Tiger_heart]

Someone explain to me what silver bullet this coach will have, remembering the commitment (or lack of!) shown throughout the year and especially in the last game against the dogs. Is the plan to change all 13 players? Who knows..

Go and watch highlights of some of our games and the way sides strip us apart and ask yourself this.

If we had a second rower (preferably two) who was putting defensive pressure on opposing halves, would all those backline shifts have lead to tries?

3 years of coaching and we still didn't get it right..You think 1 player would have made the difference? I doubt it...

Can’t say I agree on this but I do think he’s got to make some improvements in his defence and effort through the entire game. I love his passion though and can’t not see him first grade somewhere even if you’re prediction of him not playing in the halves comes to fruition.

"Reading his own press and believing his own hype"? Is there 1 single example of Douiehi pumping his own tyres or stating that he is anything more than an ordinary team member? I don't think so. Bit harsh to accuse him of spruiking himself IMO, he hasn't said anything.

Quite a vivid imagination there

How long before the pretend journos trolling on here make it breaking news on Fox.... just wait....

There’s no denying club greats of the past are always going to have their opinions respected by the current crop of players. Kicking them aside is a bad move.

 

[TIGERPOWER]

I was a madge supporter who wanted him gone. But first and foremost I’m a tigers supporter. As our coach I will back him and hope we do well in 2022. Hopefully lessons are learnt from the failings this year and surrounding him with sheens and new assistants gets the desired results.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Robbo congratulated Madge, calling him a fine coach on NRL360. Respected figure in the game. Now let him whip this roster into shape.

Of course all the other coaches want our team to be coached by someone that is not up to the task! Gus, and Gallen and Robbo are not concerned with what is in the best interests of the tigers, they are are competitors and as such their opinion on who should coach us should not be so highly valued and prized!

Sorry who does Gallen coach?

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit mate. If you enjoy trying to upset and stir random people on the internet that only talk on the forum as an outlet for their fears, frustrations and thoughts on the football club that is in their heart and soul whether they like it or not then more power to you , mate . I hope you get what you need from it ! ?

2 second rowers and one centre would make a giant difference if we could get it right. They also need to have character that they can spread throughout the team.

I would like them more if they backed him on the field instead of social media

Oh I agree…I only said I’ve started liking some of them lol…

Lee H was critical of management yesterday. The joint leaks like sieve.

It has been for years…that is our biggest Achilles heel as a club

100% a heap to improve. Though, he strikes me as the kind of guy that would work on building his game and seems really hard on himself and driven to succeed. With his work ethic I have no doubt he will only get better

 

[Tim Sheens]

Hopefully lessons are learnt from the failings this year and surrounding him with sheens and **new assistants** gets the desired results.

After reading and hearing for year or so that Maguire needed new assistants and partly so because he feared unseating, that we went through the entire season without change makes the current situation and decisions even more upsetting.

Baffled as to why on earth our club waited until the fat lady had totally lost her voice before making this bloody change!

 

[PJ_]

With so much oversight and ppl above him making decisions, you'd think Madge will be gone sooner rather than later. No way he makes it thru his contracted 2 years with the squad he has atm. He's going to need a couple of big signings to keep his job

I agree, for me it is the most disappointing part of the his injury, I really wanted him to get the time over the offseason to work on his game.

 

[TYGA]

I believe reality has set in at the Tigers this is a long term rebuild. I don’t see anything but 2 year veteran deals and younger players looking for an opportunity on the horizon. The club won’t over pay and from the sounds of it they know it’s a long term plan. Madge will see out his two years and they can plan for the future hopefully with a more experienced squad getting more games.

The brand damage is done they have to take their time and do it properly.
