Next seasons prospects

[bigsiro]

We are currently 4th-last, there are not many further places to slip down.

Tigers certainly have a long-term plan, these are professional football coaches and administrators. None of us are truly privy to what the plan is.

Will the plan work? If you know for sure, put your money where your mouth is, and let the rest of us know the future so we can cash in too.

The question is, has this plan been forced upon them by lack of cash and resources and has Taylor been asked to perform a miracle?????

Definitely forced and yes Taylor's got to be Houdini.

Anyway, what kind of long-term plan involves a medium-term policy of not buying marquee talent for multiple seasons? And how long is a "long-term plan" in NRL? How did the last "long term" plan work out? and the one before that? Are we seriously supposed to buy into another one?

I'd rather marquee signings, some on-field excitement and 3 strong years than no marquee signings, putrid play and 5 strong years (which is all we can hope for with a "long-term plan").

5 year plans are full of risk in the current NRL climate. Even 5 year player signings are very risky.

What is new - nothing.

We are only half way through this season - lets get through this one first. Far too early imo to be talking about next year. As rex2ce said above with 3 NRL and 2 wests board members, we could be in Perth as the Ironmongers next year or the year after and we won't have to worry about it.

I am placing more importance on what is happening this year. I still see a lot of positives, most of the young blokes are coming on (don't agree with Lovett), agree we need a couple of experienced players for next year (as we know there isn't any coin - end of thought), Rocks and diamonds will continue - that is the way it is going to be.

Why do we keep rehashing the same threads all the time.

I get the frustration, the dissatisfaction, the dislike for JT and certain players - how about we have a permanent "Frustration" thread where everyone so disposed can dump their crap and then for anyone not interested in that they can read all the other threads. Next years problems solved straight away.

Maybe we should have a special thread just for your posts Russell?? A place you can dump your "crap"… If you don't like what other people post, don't read them. Simple really. 😕
This is a WT Forrum after all. 😕

I agree with your post Tigermama. Russell certainly does not believe in forward planning. It is ironic that most of Russell's posts are in fact quite negative.

I try and distance myself from negativity Newtown… :wink:

I am looking forward to you trolling back through my posts and producing one with negative comments on the team, the coach or how they will not do any good in future games.

Go to it guys!

I wait with bated breath.
