Media guy Dan talintyre leaving WT. Sounds like getting more money working for NRL.

Hopefully we might get some content now.

WT's has always been toward the top of the NRL for Website traffic...
He's been there for 8 years... He can't be doing that bad a job!!
Anyone that works for an NRL Club, Their aim is to work for the NRL...
It's the only real career progression available to them, He's been the boss at WT's forever...
The only way is up. Good on him... He's done a difficult job for the time he's been here.

Hope he gets some security there . V'Landys not the most stable boss-retrenched so many then NRL went begging to get them back with no luck.

Based on what?
Your expectations? Rival club content? Or is your appraisal just invented?

As i have always said,-- A half is the link between the forwards and backs. We have had weak attack and defence in the forwards, and slow and inafactive backs. To pinpoint Brooks as our problem was rediculous. AD tried hard but a little overrated, i doubt he will be in the halve unless of injury.

Ok so what about his short range kicks and building pressure when we're in the opposition teams 20metee zone? He can't even grubber a ball..always goes out. Packs don't make him kick better lol

Absolutely, we have no issue getting into the 20, finishing is the problem!

Back in 2018/2019 his kicking game and overall playing ability was fine, I remember his problem being he was great at forcing dropouts and building pressure but having trouble capitalising. But as soon as V'landy dropped the 6 again rule out of the blue early 2020 season Brooks has had a fair bit of trouble with his game.

It's strange isn't it? I remember reading on here somewhere (and I agreed with it) that the 'six again' rule change would be good for us (for Liddle and Brooks). It certainly didn't turn out that way.

Is Hastings good at fifth tackle options? If Hastings takes control, then hopefully it only goes to Brooks when he calls it really seeing something could be on. That might help him a lot.

Brooks just does not have the IQ, WONDER how many games he will lose for us next season if he is our organiser in the red zone

Bloke I work with and his mate were out on weekend and happened to bump into Paulo. Paulo knew said blokes mate through sports media circles and the trio began discussing things league in general. Bloke from work also a massive Tigers fan began sussing him out etc. Asked if he looked like signing with the Dolphins or did he have other offers/interest in mind.

Paulo mentioned unlikely he'll be at Eels due to current offer well below others currently available though said money isn't his only motivating factor. Said length of deal is one factor to consider given his age. Mentioned preference is to remain in Sydney though the Dolphins would naturally appeal to anyone given it's a start up. Asked would he ever consider Tigers as an option and he openly said sure why not? Said team is making some solid signings and putting together a pretty decent forward pack.

Take this info as you will as it's not first hand though the lad who gave me the info is a pretty straight down the line type.


Sounds like a done deal.

Don’t get your hopes up until it becomes official although I will say if true at least he’s considering us

Often hear and think myself fans are left in the dark about the team, people provide suggestion goes to deaf ears.

So where's the great job if I feel like the WT content is lacking.

That's my opinion if you don't like it move on.

Just wondering, do you notice the number of "up votes" that comments directly opposite to yours attract?

@Kul , bring back the down vote.

Sorry my opinion is not the same as everyone else. How dare I.

If you think you're entitled to know more about the team or the club,
Go and work for them.
You're a consumer / possible fan / or customer.... Nothing more...
Maybe remind yourself of that every time you think you need to be further informed.

What an incredible level of self entitlement that you believe you can gatekeep someone's perception of accessibility to club content.

Multiple sports (nfl, nba, afl) including the NRL have specifically outlined fan accessibility as a major goal in the name of product improvement. When did the club assign you as the VP in fan perceptions of the club?

I am a member of the Tigers (for fandom) and the Broncos (due to locality and kids fandom) and the broncos media content is light years ahead of the tigers for members. So if one fan isn't satisfied with the content he is being provided he has every right to express that. If you are, thats awesome by all means put forward that opinion.

But until you are assigned the portfolio of fan engagement for NRL clubs, maybe stop lecturing people on the level of accessibility they are allowed to desire from their chosen hobbies.
 
Dan is one of the best in the business and extremely well respected by people in the sports Communications & Media industry.

Sad to see him go.

Yeah... No worries buddy.
Go back a bit further where he says that a guy we've employed for 8 years (just been promoted to the NRL) does an ordinary job.

We also just released a tell all, behind the scenes (like it or not) documentary into the full season of the club...
Exactly how many sporting organisations world wide have done that exactly?
