Keen to know myself... Fingers crossed we know this week

The Pom has indicated that Madge would hold his coaching position.

All this Review is achieving is wasting valuable time in recruiting decent capable players.. What a wierd and wasteful mob the Wests tigers organisation is.

Madge isn't safe yet.

Wish the same for the board pascoe and hartigan. All time low for the club

With Hartigan and assistance from Sheens, our club is well placed to recruit new talent. IMO acquiring good young players on the cusp of the NRL is an excellent outcome. You only have to revisit the Laurie and Utoikamanu signings to realise the value they bring to our team. My fingers are crossed a new coach will bring an incremental improvement to our play generally but specifically our defence.

Yeah, I don't know how people don't see this.


its amazing that agents and players dont understand this

Not really IMO. Most players are early twenties with almost zero life experience with at least 5-10 years of everyone pumping their tyres up. Agents care about their business (as we have seen at the Tigers) and will gladly sign a player to a club if it means that they get a favourable result for another higher paid player. All that matters to agents is business.

Madge thinks he is.

Depends on who told him that.

Also depends on who told you he isn't...?

Exactly

Well I guess if the board were 100% and had made up their mind to keep madge, you'd think they would of announced it already.

So its reasonable to think either the board are currently split and haven't made a formal decision yet or they are seeking alternative to madge before making up their mind.

Brent Read saying that Peachey has been offered to WT and raiders. Wants a 3 year deal @ $400k a season. Both clubs don't want to pay that price.

Fair price.
Hopefully something can be worked out.
We need him more than the raiders.

Raiders however need a 7...
Can think of a guy.

Transfer the guy you speak of to the Raiders and use some of that cap to pay Peachy $400k?

We don't need to free up $ to get Peachy.

But we do need to offload Brooks

Agree madge did pretty good with what he had at his disposal. The great negotiators Lee, hardigan pascoe really rallied a great side.

Yeah, I don't know how people don't see this.

I like hartigan and I like madge (don't know them but going from what you see in media, forum etc)

But I don't get how hartigan gets credit for good young signings and made gets the blame for not landing a big name signing.

If its hartigans role to manage signings, surely he gets blame for bungled TPJ, finucane, etc

We get the westa Tigers fan commitee love hartigan for some reason. Hartigan must be a committee member.

lol

Sheens has been out of the loop for years and Hartigan has not set the world alight.

Both are intelligent men and assets to WTs. I have confidence in both men.

Confidence can be misplaced and when it is it becomes dangerous.
Maybe I’ll be corrected next year. Wait and see.

Which Penrith star is waiting to find out if Cameron Ciraldo gets the coaching job at the Wests Tigers before deciding his long-term future? Ciraldo is hugely respected by all the Panthers youngsters

Surely Kikau.
He is the only one I see to be looking for a new opportunity out of the yet to be resigned for 23 of Kikau, Edwards, May and Korisou.

Talk is Kikau ain’t too keen on the time he had under Griffen.

Same player manager, Flanagan or Ciraldo will do.

Koroisau would be a great pick up. His cousin may come with him which would be very exciting for WTs.

If this is true, the fact players are now taking note suggests there is truth to the rumblings about Ciraldo.
