Tim Sheens Returns to Tigers

[TigerWest]

Some info. I was in Townsville for origin and ran into Chairman Lee a couple of times. The first at a pub at lunchtime before the game where he was having lunch and drinks with a few ex players (Hindmarsh, craig wing, Menzies). He looked very at home with the boys and very casual. I ran into him later after the game and said gday and said thanks for his support for the club and he was very nice and said it was his pleasure and that the club is very well run by the executives. I congratulated him on the Sheens signing and he said something along the lines of “that’s one thing I did help out on” so not sure what he meant by that but maybe he was involved in smoothing things over after Sheens left on bad terms under the prior management. Anyway I thought it was worthwhile sharing. Not sure why people would be negative on him he seemed a nice guy, humble enough and someone who gets along with people in rugby league.

Well said mate.

I was watching the recent 4 corners ep on packer and Barangaroo casino. I can’t believe Barry O'Farrell was chairman of wests tigers was such a strange appointment if you think about it.

Now we know what the $2,000 bottle of wine was all about and why he resigned as Premier so quickly.
Just another politician with his dirty snout in the trough.
Yuh gotta give it to the ABC for the great investigative work they do.

Also the Luna Park fire...another crook politician involved apparently.

Sorry Magpies 1963, but surely you remember the old days of Askins?
Crooked as they come, but the place was basically crime free?
You will never clean them out, but you can keep them quiet?

Seeing this I thought I was reading the "Politics Super Thread".

He is working in Pathways, he won't make a difference to the NRL team this year or next.

I know that’s what the club says but I think there’s more to it than that. We are a club that’s struggling on the field. When you’ve got one of the best coaches of all time in the organisation, it would be silly not to use him.

I think you are reading too much into it.

Maguire talks to “lots of coaches”.

Having him at the Club provides options.

I get the impression after reading a post that the Chairman allegedly stated that he was the one that chased Sheens there is more to this ..the statement from Pascoe that Sheens has no definitive roll also clouds the issue . Could there be a coaching change for next season with Sheens coming in with in the month ..just throwing it out there .

Someone on here posted that they ran into Lee (at Magic Round or something if I remember) a few days ago. Not sure what thread but might've been this one.

I saw that post, he didn't say he was the one that chased him. I thought he said something along the lines of that us something he assisted with?

There was an awful lot on this forum that were all in for Fatty O'B's appointment. I couldn't believe it at the time. Very dodgy dealer who apparently was going to do amazing things for the club with all of his connections. What a sham.
