So now that we signed peach realistically who is next option as a potential signing ?

Curtis Scott?
Adam Elliot ?
Or someone we haven't been linked with like a Enari tuala or Sean O'Sullivan?

Personally i would just wait til November 1 when clubs need to trim fat for salary cap

I think you just named the next signings.

375k a year isn't bad for what he was outputting at Titans.
Tigers are getting both Hastings and Peachey on less than what they were paying for Mbye. Based on current form both of those guys seem to be better quality than Mbye. Neither deal is going to screw them over long term if we dud it up. This is a good deal for the Tigers in my book.

Gotta remember we are still paying Mbye $400k, which means we are paying almost $800k for Tyrone to replace him in total

If you assume we didn’t top Mbye up this season.

Fine signing. Price is ok. He'll be in our top 17 every week he's fit and his salary is actually pretty damn good considering that. Like if every top 30 member took an even share of the cap we'd pay them 300k so someone like Peachey being on 375k or whatever isn't that bad at all really.

 

[TheDaBoss]

Dean pay would be great

 

[Demps]

Would like to see some of the young kings deals sorted.

Ogden, Dillon and hopefully Hill can backflip.

No offence to Peachey, but haven't the expectations of the supporters of WTs fallen! Maguire has a plan.

But wait you said Sheens is in charge and Maguire is nothing but an assistant so you must be having a shot at Sheens.

But Maguire has only had three years!

The nuclear carrier Nimitz (first of class as well) only took 4 to build but then again, culture change is a long term goal.

So, what did Nimitz do in the 4th year?

Didn't Nimitz miss Midway because of shingles ??

Mbye leaving (and us picking up half his tab) and Peachey signing are just unrelated events. The Peachey signing will prove to be either good business or bad business, but that won't have anything to do with Mbye.

Bingo. Fixing a previous error is nothing to do with Peachey. And it’s only a comparison for the first year anyway.

NRL news: Shane Flanagan and Nathan Cayless headline potential Wests Tigers assistants

The Wests Tigers have begun their search to bolster Michael Maguire’s coaching staff for next season — and two top contenders have emerged.

Wests Tigers have begun interviewing potential assistant coaches, with premiership-winning coach Shane Flanagan right in the mix.

The Tigers have two positions available to assist Michael Maguire as they head into a season-defining year for the coach.

Flanagan has already been interviewed and he sits at the top of the queue.

Itis understood that ex-Parramatta captain Nathan Cayless and former South Sydney lower-grade player Ryan Carr are also among the potential candidates.

Flanagan has strong support from those within the club. The famed review into the club, which almost led to Maguire’s sacking, asked the coach to surround himself with high calibre assistants.

Flanagan is easily the most credentialed having led the Sharks premiership glory in 2016 and finished his stint with a 55 per cent winning rate. He was a St George Illawarra assistant coach in 2020 before joining Fox League this year.

Flanagan wants to return to coaching and is open to providing support to Maguire.

Cayless most recently spent the past two seasons working as an assistant coach at the Roosters. He was replaced by Brett Morris heading into next season. Since retiring at the end of 2010, Cayless has held coaching positions at his former club Parramatta and the Warriors.

Carr played under Maguire during a stint at South Sydney before transitioning into a coach. He was appointed South Sydney’s under-20s coach in 2017 where Pat Richards, who is part of the Tigers coaching staff, was his assistant.

Carr has also coached Mounties and Parramatta in the NSW Cup and spent a season as head coach of Featherstone Rovers in the competition below the Super League.

Nathan Cayless has spent the past two seasons as an assistant coach at the Roosters.

Ex-Bulldogs coach Dean Pay was also linked to the role.

The Tigers are on the lookout for new coaches after Wayne Collins was not re-signed following the review. The club this week also announced that Shane Millard, who joined the club last year, was also moving on.

This is the article in question ;


Meanwhile, the Tigers have officially unveiled Tyrone Peachey on a two year deal worth about $750,000.

Peachey returns to Sydney after a three-year stint on the Gold Coast.

He could line-up in the halves to start the season given the long-term injury to Adam Doueihi. Peachey, who played three games for NSW in 2018, joins Jackson Hastings and Oliver Gildart as new recruits at the Tigers next season.

“I’ve been really impressed by Madge (Maguire) and the way he approaches the game and I’m looking forward to working under him,” Peachey said.

“I know that I perform my best when I’ve got a strong coach who can keep me accountable and I’ve really enjoyed speaking with him lately.”

The Tigers still have about a $1 million for three spots left on their roster.

The article is talking about Shane Flanagan and Nathan Cayless as being possible assistant coaches,

I will be very disappointed.

 

[avocadoontoast]

Having three premiership winning coaches on the payroll and still finishing bottom 4 will be the most Wests Tigers thing ever

 

[Lee's fedora]

Look end of the day peachy solves alot of our problems such as the ball playing lock and if needed center fill in (if we don't sign scott) ball playing lock gives the halves more time to think and make decisions

I would have to guess Flanno messed up the supplements.

 

[Aceshigh]

Have faith Madge will get the boys into top 8 nxt year , the young team are coming together nicely
