Well it didn’t hurt Nicko Hynes fortunes did it.They've already done their apprenticeship. Now they've extended another few years. They'll be playing Qld Cup into their mid 20s at this rate
I would lose talau for ramien for sureI wouldn’t mind if it’s true but I don’t want talau or feledy to leave cause of him
MM won't leave Sydney.Since Brown re- signed would that mean dolphins chase Moses?
Whoever came in after the Cleary Pascoe shit fight was on a hiding to nothing. Pascoe is the coach killer.Was at a Xmas party tonight and I ran into a good friend of Michael Maguire man I have so much more respect for him now he got bent over hard by the Tigers and for him not to open his mouth he is a gentleman I wish him all the best and a few bits about Lee ..
Lee mite have to go for the Tigers to succeed
I didn’t think Tommy was in the centre’s anymore?I would lose talau for ramien for sure
Nobody is satisfied with Brooks performance at halfback. We simply see other issues. Guys who can’t catch, guys who don’t know where to stand from a drop out, guys who show no urgency, guys who turn it up after signing elsewhere, guys who get sin binned for stupidity. Perhaps those 14 losses weren’t on the halfback.Exactly. Brooks playing 14 games at 7 last year for 14 defeats. He showed some ok signs playing at 6 but he was diabolical at 7.
I think we need an improvement on what Hastings delivered too but my god I can't see how anyone can be satisfied with Luke Brooks performance as halfback
Lee is a narcissistic, egomaniac with no rugby league IQ.Was at a Xmas party tonight and I ran into a good friend of Michael Maguire man I have so much more respect for him now he got bent over hard by the Tigers and for him not to open his mouth he is a gentleman I wish him all the best and a few bits about Lee ..

Not much game management to do when your forwards can’t keep up and it’s 40 to shit at halftime.I am not sure why Hastings is copping so much on here.
He busted his guts for us and has a genuine footy IQ.
Speed is not a factor IF you give him a 6 who has speed and can play off the cuff footy.
And he will have that in Ponga.
I actually think they will be a great pairing as their skillsets combine well.
I have been a long term Brooks fan on here...watched him since Holy Cross.
But, facts are facts, he can barely string a sentence together and has shown no ability to understand the game. Cooper Cronk commented a couple of years back that Brooks went to the side of the field for an entire set once when our opp had 12 men. Never once went to the side that was short.
I like him, and will always support a Balmain kid.
But anyone expecting Brooksy to develop any sort of game managing IQ in year 10 or so of his career will be disappointed. Yet again.
We need, desperately, to find a game managing half from somewhere. I still can't quite fathom why we did not swap Brooks for big Klem. Finding a running 6 is a hell of a lot easier than a game managing 7, which we once again do not have...
All the superstars he signs that John West reject don't help us at allWhoever came in after the Cleary Pascoe shit fight was on a hiding to nothing. Pascoe is the coach killer.
Lee is a narcissistic, egomaniac with no rugby league IQ.
He has found public fame in the Tigers Chairman position.
Good luck getting rid of him.
And yet what do most people know his as - or when the media talk to him in what capacity do they interview him as?Just looking at the Bryden's website, Lee is way more than just Wests Tigers;
His firm sponsors Wests Tigers, Newcastle Knights, Souths Rabbitohs, Western Suburbs Magpies, West Illawarra Devils, St Mary's Leagues Club, Kemps Creek United Soccer Club, Wenty Leagues, Milperra Colts, Mounties, Blacktown Workers, Giants PRL, Variety Charity, & Campbelltown Chamber of Commerce, among others.
Apart from being cringeworthy, the Tigertales doco gave us real insight into the Tigers dressing room…for me what stuck out is the shouting and screaming at players is old school, doesn’t work (apart for Bellamy)….Madge’s coaching methods do not resonate with this generation of footballers…he was well intended, but just could not deliver…Was at a Xmas party tonight and I ran into a good friend of Michael Maguire man I have so much more respect for him now he got bent over hard by the Tigers and for him not to open his mouth he is a gentleman I wish him all the best and a few bits about Lee ..

I commented on the Bateman threadHow's that flight and visa tracking going in search of Bateman?
Lee 100% needs to go for the club to succeed!!Was at a Xmas party tonight and I ran into a good friend of Michael Maguire man I have so much more respect for him now he got bent over hard by the Tigers and for him not to open his mouth he is a gentleman I wish him all the best and a few bits about Lee ..

I wonder though have you ever met Lee H, spoken to him at length and judged for yourself? That's why I'm always hesitant to critique the guy's personality because I've never actually met him, and public personas are often misleading.Lee is a narcissistic, egomaniac with no rugby league IQ.

A carefully considered post, nice.I wonder though have you ever met Lee H, spoken to him at length and judged for yourself? That's why I'm always hesitant to critique the guy's personality because I've never actually met him, and public personas are often misleading.
For example, I know TigerSteve (who doesn't post much in here any more) and he had a long interview with Lee H this year. It wasn't recorded for their podcast but he was allowed to take notes and summarise the discussion.
He said Lee was very passionate and knowledgeable about both rugby league and Wests Tigers, and although it's easy to see an arrogant side to his personality / position, and although he didn't agree with all of Lee's takes on the club and their plans, he couldn't doubt those plans were developed from a lot of careful consideration and research.
Which I suppose makes sense as a prominent lawyer.
So - if you have met Lee and spoken to him, it's interesting to hear your take. If you have only observed him from the media, I'd wager you don't really know the guy at all. He was already rich before he became Tigers Chairman and he was already a VERY prominent club sponsor before they offered him that role.
He also sponsors a lot of league sides - surely sponsoring Tigers and the NSW Blues does the job for his advertising and legal referrals? Surely sponsoring NSW Cup sides must include an element of pure rugby league passion and not just dollar signs?
Either way, it could already be sorted but not announced. Also what better opportunity to get bad news out there than immediately before the xmas shutdown.Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Moses Manager say this will be sorted before Xmas?
If thats the case only 3 Business days to go before we know the answer.
IMO I think it needs to be wrapped up prior to the Xmas break so when all the players return after the break they know whats happening and can just focus on footy.
I think Souths are announcing the extensions of Walkers and LM tomorrow so I would assume the salary cap might be sorted finally as well.
He may have it but Marshall and Sheens released him to the Knights to get Klemmer. It seems Hastings' footy iq was readily replaceable. The promotion of Matamua to the top 30 and the arrival of young Faagutu may be indicative of their views on the 13 moving forward.because he has footy IQ
