Taylor's current thoughts - SMH
- Thread starter Eddie
- Start date
I'm a fan of what Taylor is trying to do, but definitely not a fan of how he is going about it.
As for criticising what happened under former coaches, well it's a positive that he has identified these issues and weaknesses. It's what you would expect any half decent incoming coach to do. But it's one thing identifying them, and another thing rectifying them.
The reality is that we cannot really compare this years Tigers to Mick Potter's or Tim Sheens' Tigers, because they are very different sides.

Clubs like Canterbury, Brisbane, and Easts have very strong business connections that allow them to pay players through third party deals. The Tigers don't.
It's that simple.
Whenever we sing a player with a large TPA it seems to fall through.
That's why they can put together strong squads year after year while we struggle to put a reserve grade squad on the park and are still over the cap.
Hopefully this can be addressed somewhat with Harry no longer being a sponsor. Although I don't know if he is interested in securing TPA's for the club.

What are people getting so upset about?
What's the guy supposed to say? "I don't know anything and we are not going to win". Of course he puts a positive spin on whatever he can manage, and of course he will try to shift blame where it might be reasonable.
He's not going anywhere. You can hate the bloke until you are blue in the face, start a thread every time he opens his mouth, throw abuse and sharp objects at the telly when he does press conferences. He might be the world's biggest imbecile, but he is our imbecile and he is here for at least another 12 months.
For all the positives about the way Potter handled himself, we finished 13th and 15th and he got hooked. He might have left with dignity, but he was carrying it in a little box when they booted him.
