Sheens will not stay in a senior role we know that , it's just a way of pushing him away and making Sheens ask for a release at a reduced rate . Not a bad idea ….

@RatedRKO said:To me, it sounds like they couldn't get Sheens to resign with a reasonable payout and they couldn't afford the 900k up front to sack him. By keeping him on in a 'senior role', he will still get the 900k but over two years which gives us a much better chance of coming up with the money.
I just hope Sheens doesn't have too much influence on the new coach. I guess when the team list is named for round 1, if Benji is named at half we will know :laughing:
@snowleopard said:Doubt very much he will stay…this is just a ploy to give him time to organise another contract with someone like Warriors. The deal will be whoever picks him will subsidise his payout ...he will not lose 'face' ...everyone will be happy..Happy

Theyre hoping he'll walk…hedging their bets.
What new coach would come here knowing a 600game verteran, Australian coach and the teams prior coach for the past decade will be around every day lookin over his shoulder??
What players are going to come, not really knowing whos in charge and knowing how they treat current players?
What club relieves a first grade coach of 10 years without having a ready replacement?
I know they must say things to get ulterior results, lie, bend the truth....but imo the club is looking very very shady and deceitful...the average punter fan sees this and thinks, what BS this clubs full of.
Moltzen drama, Gibbs & Fafita....now Heighno & Ryan....very very poorly handled
@supercoach said:I think he summed things up well. Yes it could be labeled as spin, but his job is to put a positive message out their and he did that.
Not sure if I want Tim as a mentor to a young coach like Parish, but of course their is the financial side of things to consider.Their was also no mention of the salary cap, it would be nice to know where we are at with our cap as their are plenty of rumors going around.
Anyway I think the CEO responded well and all systems go for 2013
@Karma Tiger said:@LCA said:"Having now gone through a very thorough process, I can advise you that the Board of Wests Tigers has decided to restructure the Club’s Football operations. This restructure will include the appointment of a new NRL Coach for 2013.
A sub-committee has been formed which will lead the process of selection and appointment. This process will commence immediately."
I hope the sub-committee is ready to be lobbied by The Parrott for his mate Matt Parish. I also hope they tell AJ, "thanks, but no thanks". Anyone but Matt Parish will suffice.
Humphreys sub-committee I have taken fiveblack and gold puppets from my drawer and i will have my fist up everyone of them.They will say yess stephen no stephen Matt parish is coach Stephen.
@GNR4LIFE said:Interesting no one has mentioned the fact Sheens wasn't at the Presser. Would have thought that would have been a talking point. Was he too proud for that?

It's clear what your agenda is. I can see you fitting in well around here, albeit briefly.
@boonboon said:I though Humphreys and Trodden were great in the press conference and in the email. They were straight forward and made the clear and important point that you don'trush big decisions because they have big impacts and they spoke with respect about a coach who has been great for us and I think it will be interesting what happens with Tim next year after it is worked through. He could be great running our junior developement programs, working with sponsors, assisting coaches, community7 programs ,etc a great role to drive the club forward in some key areas
@Yossarian said:An excellent letter from the CEO.

This.
Written with poise and elegance. It is precisely what is needed during this perceived time of instability.
Even if it's BS (my gut says it isn't) it's a strong statement.
