Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Telltails]

If it’s true that Fulton our recruitment manager is openly coercing player managers to give the tigers a wide berth then it’s time to remove this cancer. For all the crap that he had all these magic connections he has signed no one from outside the club. Must have been a reason Manly got rid of him

The people who need to be removed are the two people who thought this was a good idea.

This emergency meeting. Wouldn't the coach and the recruitment guy talk every day as a matter of course?
Sounds like bullshizer to me.

Idiots should have had Benji and Sheens involved in the decision for Fulton. Now they've burned bridges and set the club back yet again.

For Pascoe to have the gall to get Fulton and Benji to work it out shows a severe lack of self reflection. HE created this mess with the board.

Everyone and the media saw what a dumb decision it was! How can our 2 leaders and the rest of the board not see it?

The board and Pascoe need to go. They could not manage their way out of a paper bag.

The Tigers have a big problem on their hands. Player Managers run the NRL they determine where most players end up.

There are three options in my view.
Sack Fulton and whomever made the call and supported it Pascoe, Lee.

Sack Sheens, Benji and Pascoe and Lee have to fall on their sword. Bring in Holbrook as coach.

Hire Holbrook as a senior assistant roll with Benji and send Sheens back to pathways and coaching director responsibilities.

In my view it’s time senior leadership resigned effective immediately. Simone like Shane Richardson needs to take charge.

why are you proposing Sheens as a “pathways” option?

Time might have passed the 72yr old Boomer for that role

Just get rid of him

Hope Benji brushes their meeting. The crisis was created long before this mess. Fix it yourselves muppets

There is the alleged comment that was made.

So two blokes turn up to work who work together and have a chat like they always do and that's an emergency meeting now?
Work sure has changed since I last had a real job.

I think it’s due to the SMH article

 

[liltiger]

What the gist of thos one?

No idea I just go off the headline, too tight to pay the subscription.

 

[liltiger]

Must be Tartak (Crown), Daniel O’Loughlin (Esportif) and one other.

Moses or Ayoub

 

[Tom Shines]

The vision would be at the expense of the predatory clubs and make the competition unfair (for them),

can we be a predatory club?

 

[Betterdays22]

Have a feeling things are going to get worse and worse for a while. This season has had a stink about it outside the normal swings and roundabouts.

True with this forward pack there is zero reason to be last so lots of issues in the background

Wish we could march on Wests Ashfield and protest against the ceo and board of the Tigers and demand change to the shithole

what’s stopping you?

 

[Betterdays22]

It’s a downward spiral until they get rid of the muppets.

To be honest I don't even know how much of an impact that will have. The clubs image is in total tatters. The media are absolutely relentless and I dont have any faith that the current group can actually win a game for the rest of the year to take some heat off. I can see no reason any player with more than 1 option would come here and its a matter of time before successful clubs convince our best juniors that the Tigers is not the best place to have a successful first grade career. I would love to know what players say to eachother about the club behind closed doors.

Onfield- All the hope of Luke Brooks becoming an organising halfback and link between the forwards and backs finally faded and Sheens hoisted on his own petard for this crucial decision?

Offfield- continued bad leadership by Pascoe and Hagi, along with a supine board.

 

[Odessa]

Don't want a West vs Balmain thing but does anyone know what year West took full control of the board 2014 ?

 

[incontrol]

Lee and Pascoe need to be removed. Too many poor decisions.
I wasn’t buying into any negatives about the CEO and Lee and thought it was more the board until after the thrashing by the cowboys and Lee states to the media that “we are on an aggressive recruitment campaign” he didn’t need to tell the media this! This shows no support to the current team and staff and is likely what’s happening internally that there is no supporting culture within the club. Let alone the mess that would be caused by the way Fulton was brought in. We are all standing on the outside looking in however it looks terrible, divided and an unsupportive culture from the outside!

Lee and Pascoe time to go!!!

 

[Halbrowne61]

And as usual no impact on field as that’s not the problem.

Not sure about that B, these sorts of things can get to player level.
