I like how Tigers aren't within cooee of the finals, probably also too far in front of the wooden spoon, aren't playing this weekend... still getting all the media attention.

It's like finding out the bully at school actually has a crush on you.

Sleeping giants of the NRL, imagine if we could field a competitive team! Good indigenous programs though.

Even the Indigenous Programs are'nt working. Fitzy got sacked yesterday.

That's a little unfair to the people working in those programs

Organisations can put in the best educators and top line programs for people/players/students etc etc etc, but if the individuals arent willing to actually learn from them and pick up all the valuable lessons from these educators then this is what you get.
Sorry if it sounded like i was having a go at the people actually working in these programs behind the scenes ,as it was not what i meant.

Yeah so probably a little unfair to say the programs aren't working because of the alleged actions of one individual, especially if the actions are proven he would be low life scum.


Tend to agree.
I haven’t heard a single sound reason for sacking Madge?
Players dropping the ball isn’t one of them imo.

Expect another DT article tomorrow special featuring. Moses, Tedesco and ado carr on why we left the tigers.

Looking forward to 700 pages on here about it tomorrow

I think I need to get out of the habit of defending the club. The club was a shambles I don’t blame them for leaving.

I’ve heard one - has Madge demonstrated that he can coach a team outside the 8 to a grand final or even the top 8 ?
 
Madge going nowhere.

The club is in the verge of sustained success.

Reworked roster based on youth.
Salary cap relief
Pathways investment
Tim Sheens
Reserve team performing well.

There not gonna dump a tough coach for a nobody or rookie now.

I like your optimism

Tom sheens sounds like a great bloke
 
I think going after a good forward is a good option, but looking at the successful clubs, they mainly rely on their backs to break open the defence to win games and we just don’t have that.

E.g. it is not all these players efforts,but:
Manly have Turbo
Easts have Teddy
Parra’s have Sivo
Panthers have Cleary
Storm have there whole backline😀

IMO, finding that game breaker is what we need ASAP.

This team is not good enough for top 8. The club has a history of not being able to attract quality players which impacts Maguires ability to get results. It's more than just a numbers game you can't ignore what you have to work with. Add 4 quality players and then yes and if he failed then you would have good reason to move him on.

We have regularly broken the line - Liddle, Lucy, Garner, Stef even AD all come to mind, but it's the support thats lacking almost every time. It's like they're surprised the break took place. A Terry Lamb type could be a good signing. Or our blokes could actually stay switched on for more than a few seconds.

That's a silly question, he did it his first year at Souths.

I was saying this stuff too...in 2014. How anyone can still delude themselves with these cliche’s boggles my mind.

Agree, but just don’t think anyone we have is a game breaker? Manly is the classic example of this.

Yeah exactly any coach appointment is crucial.

Potter and Jason Taylor appointments after sheens was just so dumb
