He won’t and if he does he’s an idiot.

hope you are right mate

Hey I was watching the games at that time.

NO

Just
NO.

The Brooks + Moses halves pairing was one of the worst this club has had. I only say "one of" because we did not come 16th then. It was bad.

Unless Moses has learned how to play second fiddle, and lets face it Moses is now more 7 then 5/8... This won't work.
Ofcourse Brooks could go 5/8 with moses at Half... Only way I see this working.

We have a great team at the moment. Lets not repeat past mistakes.

i'm pretty sure that's the plan if we snared him.

Why does everyone choose to remember 2012 and forget about 2005 and 2011

Because unlike 2005 and 2011, we were favourites to win the title in 2012 and completely shat the bed, resulting in Sheens getting the punt after being extended the year previous.

Madge has done a lot for the game & is a fairly successful coach but it’s clear his coaching methods are more suited to footy that was played 10 years ago compared to how it’s played now.

Sounds just like our new coach.

The 2023 premiership winners.

Penrith?

 

[Tucker]

Been involved with a lot of "committee decisions" over the years. They often seem to default to, and align with the views of the village idiot/s who almost always seem to be a part of the exercise.

Pascoe and Lee are ours…

💯

Technically 2005 and 2011 were failures

Good clubs can follow up on success

2005 was followed up by many years of failure

2010-2011 were followed up by many more failures

We have no-one to blame but ourselves

WOW
BOO F#€kn HOO

Well said.

What a stupid explanation.

Sheens is a student of the game and an innovator. His 2005 style of footy imo is readily adaptable to the game today. In addition, with Marshall, Farah and Funer he has three capable Lieutenants to implement the style of footy he wants to play. What I am pretty sure of is we won't see five hit-ups and the bomb which is Maguire's legacy.

And 4 of those hit ups were from the back 3...🙂

A little revisionist, 5 hit ups and a bomb started with Taylor and we couldn't shake it from there. Happy to see the back of it.
Madge tried to play his power game (like NZ), but he had powderpuff forwards who were never going to be able to pull it off, and couldn't offload to save their lives - it ended up being Taylorball all over again.
With Api leading the team around we finally have someone who can get us into good field position for the end of sets. Something we were woeful at for the last couple of years.

 

[wet tiger coloured bird]

how about we try the new players first then reassess where the next buy should be. we may not need to buy anymore players. just need to upgrade the performing players

 

[Tucker]

What a stupid explanation.

Well you asked what I would declare a pathetic question.
People are focusing on 2012 for extremely obvious reasons. Reasons you would know if you followed the sport longer than a couple of years.
I explained it clearly to you, without attacking your fundamental lack of knowledge.
Considering your ridiculous response, I am now stating that if you are too dumb or thick to understand it, maybe ask a grownup around you to help. It’s not that complicated.

Yes I agree that the ball will see a lot more air.
Without focus on defence though, his 2005 style won’t adapt as you expect it to.

 

[weststigerman]

Sheens has gone from a washed up retired coach to the coaching messiah on here.

All before coaching a game. Some feat.

I’ll wait until I see results on the field.

Furner and Farah's involvement suggests defence is a priority.

I don’t think we have the backline to thrust Sheens into walking on water territory?

You're a pathetic wannabe troll. Can't even do that properly. I asked why people were focussing on 2012 rather than 2005 or 2011. The correct answer would be because they are miserable losers who would prefer to focus on negatives rather than positives, similar to yourself. Do yourself a favour and give yourself another uppercut.

For what it’s worth , spoke my friend who plays 1st grade , can’t name him , he has the same manager as Nathan brown, he said he was pretty sure brown has signed with the tigers . I guess we will fine out in the next couple of days
