Taylor and his boys deserve it .

Our performance against the Sharks was very ordinary. Brooksy and Moses provided no direction and the whole team lacked any enthusiasm. And then you see on TV Taylor wandering around the sheds talking to himself because no player was listening, there are people within the club who deserve a massive kick where its deserved. Whose idea was it to sign a nuf nuf like Taylor, player acquisition and retention is a joke and the attitude of the board with their corporate crap is so disappointing. Look at us, stone motherless last, falling membership, falling crowds, a team that couldn't care less and a coach that inspires nobody. Memo to the board, success means a good playing roster, good coach and performance on the field. The result is healthy crowds at games, strong membership and respect within the league community.

Unfortunately nobody who has anything to do with the running of Wests Tigers football is hearing you or wants to hear you. That is the predicament.
 
It wouldn't surprise me if the senior players white anted Potter the way they tanked it at the end of last yr. So when i saw Woods sitting next to the pasty faced scarecrow in a press conference a few weeks looking absolutely bereft of enthusiasm, i couldn't help but think that was karma.

The issues run deep, the biggest concern is the lack of pride in the jumper.

We the fans have to stay loyal and hope better times come.

Yes, very true Phil!

Bottom line is that the buck stops with the coach. This team played to their age yesterday, not their ability. Taylor is obviously not connecting with them and not preparing them as a group of young people need to be prepared for this sport.

Doesn't matter how smart etc you are, you need to be able to manage the players foremost as a head coach, especially these days.

The game vs the Warriors will be a deciding factor if we get it or not ? We beat the Warriors we are safe.
I can't see Newcastle beating the Storm or the Bulldogs next week.
 
disappointing to see another loss
disappointed, though not surprised to see so much criticism here.
But really, what I see is a team that is really trying very hard, and if not for some silly mistakes, are capable of beating anyone.
I am not sure that calling for the coaches blood etc is really helpful, I watched this happen with the previous 2 coaches , thinking at the time that it was not helpful or constructive, and still feel the same now.
All I can offer is the patience to support a team that shows promise…..and they seem a good bunch of young fellas.......I can see nothing seriously wrong with the coach
I will continue to support hoping they find a winning rhythm

Think about it…I know its hard to think when emotional and angry

How do we afford to pay him out? ....and then pay another coach?

Good coaches cost heaps, hed be on bugger all...like Potter....we cannot get good players, were stuck with an average coach...nothing will change but if it does i cant see it being for mush better, just for changes sake

I will attempt to answer your question.

Sack Farah, he is dort. Club gains an extra Million, get Potter back to stabilize the club before making a play for a more established coach down the track if needed.

Yep won't happen and probably not even possible, and certainly unrealistic.

Potter would'nt want to come back to this mad house anyway KS. :neutral_face:
 
If we get the dreaded wooden spoon, JT and most of the boys (Teddy excluded) should line up, for a hard smack across the behind with it…. :mrgreen. Now that would be something to see. :laughing:
 
People keep saying how can we afford to pay out Taylor, how can we afford a new Coach and pay them the money they deserve ?

To me privitisation would be the answer to all this. Have performance based results and annual reviews like most industries have and then if they don't meet the annual goals then your remuneration is also affected.

But to say we can't afford this and that then we are burying our heads in the sand. All the club needs to do is to peruse what has been mentioned and see where it may lead.

It will be still Wests Tigers irrespective of who owns it.

And yes Taylor deserves the spoon for his inept coaching ability and his perseved lack of ability for motivating and inspiring a team.

So how do you lure a new coach in with whatever strict KPI you put in place in the short attention span of time you are giving them to avoid this happening in the future? No one in their right mind, including the Hasslers or the Bennetts would be up for that sort of challenge. It would also be remiss of the club to think that a 15th to Top 4 finish is going to happen in 1 season. Throw all the cash you want at it, 2 facts drive this change; an updated roster with depth, and a change in culture at the club. A new head coach may have control of one half of 1 of those 2\. I'm not a JT defender as witnessed by other posts and threads, and I know everyone's patience is teetering on non-existent, but sometimes cash can buy you happiness.
