Wests Tigers Coaches

[tony soprano]

Whilst there has been limited improvement in terms of Game Wins this year, Madge had this Hodge Podge squad playing with intent and a positive attitude.

We had a few players returning from Injury and some decent recruits coming in 2023.

Madge Has Experience, results and the Passion to work hard. These are the traits we are looking to find in his replacement.

Think you may be suffering delusion of grandeur with this squad and ex coach.

Move on champ, Fadge is gone!! Get over it, remember this is the team he put together...
With 2 teams already needing a new coach, they had to bite the bullet before someone grabbed Ciraldo!
By all reports he wouldn’t negotiate with us unless we had no coach. I believe he was all lined up and infurred that he would take the job. But then the media started death ridding us and his mate blood clot did the same, he went running! Can’t blame him in some ways, they all said he would be an idiot to join us, ‘career suicide’.
But 851 said some smart things regarding this matter in a previous post. I think he’s on the soft side for not having a go and says more about the game at the moment.
Media slams us for being a basket case, yet when we try to improve and sign a good up and coming coach. Then they hammer him for thinking about it, can’t win with this rhetoric....

I didn't want Madge sacked, but I disagree with this take. We were losing the last couple of games no matter who was coach. I saw us fight to hold our line yesterday and hit with purpose and to hurt. We got in the Warriors face early and that kept us in the game in the first half.

CC said last year that he would not consider a role if there was already a First Grade coach in place. That forced us to roll the dice. It's not a matter of whether the decision was a success or failure, but rather if Madge isn't the coach to bring through our kids in the next 2-3 years then we need to find someone who can. None of the options really motivate me so I like that the club may be looking outside the square.

Whilst we still had Madge, we should have asked cc to sign an option to coach us if we didn’t have a first grade coach.

There’s no legal requirement that this step needed to be made public by us or him.

If he said “no” fine, we move on, but we should have locked him in.

But instead we took a massive risk, we exposed ourselves to public humiliation, degradation and it’s plainly evident, there was no plan B if Ciraldo ratted.

No plan B.
We’ve had 6 or 7 months to consider alternate coaches, no doubt a few have applied, so what do we do?

We twiddle our thumbs for a month…and counting…. and expose ourselves to competition from other clubs.

And now we wait for the Titans and Knights to join the fray.

 

[gallagher]

That dastardly media 😅😅

 

[batboy]

More empty promises and explanations of a future that may never occur...

Sheens can just stay in the background, eating sausage sizzles at the lower grade games and try and work out this miss we are in.... quietly.

Real Gs move in silence.. like a Gnome.
(Noddy)

The time for talking is over.

Bra - Noddy is cabbage as a coach...
You'll hold out as long as you can, But he'll get you in the end.

CC said last year that he would not consider a role if there was already a First Grade coach in place.

Really. So a rookie coach says I won't consider the role and therefore we sack an experienced coach. That is stupid.

I understand sacking the coach prior to looking for a new coach. That is called integrity. The problem is it's pretty hard to see a better coach out of all the available options than Madge.

May not be one mate, But just because a coach isn't as good
- Doesn't mean he won't get a better result....

 

[tigermaniac]

The call on sacking Madge mid season was a mistake!

so do you think the dogs, warriors and titans have made the same mistake

 

[magpies forever]

No plan B.

And now @CloudyGlock is flying the flag for suspected candidates. Right or wrong, more than I have anyway.

We’ve had 6 or 7 months to consider alternate’s coaches, no doubt a few have applied, so we twiddle our thumbs for a month.

Like our Heads of Agreement with JAC? That went well too didnt it? Whatever, however we do anything- even handshake deals, its not a done deal until signatures on paper. We, and all clubs really, remain at the mercy of media journos, player managers and predatory other clubs gazumping previously agreed deals / offers.

Absolutely correct. He should’ve been sacked last year

 

[Alltheway]

That dastardly media 😅😅

Wake up, the media control a massive amount of the game. Hence why Sheens was trying to get them on side at grappa the other day.
They control this massive negative campaign against us, look at the dogs bottom team for years now. Yet hardly any criticism of them compared to us. And they are a power club with loads of money. Same with the donkeys over the past few years weak criticism of them either!

 

[Telltails]

This squad was never worth sacking a coach for. The club had a plan and they signed two great players for next year and had plenty of cap space to build on it.
It now appears we have a new plan around development coaches and pathways focused on another three year rebuild.
What message it sends to the coaches and players who have the pressure of delivering performances in the present - so far not so good.

No, that’s not the case, a contract doesn’t need to be in writing, but must meet other criteria.

Safer in writing to be sure.

He signs up under our option, he renegs and we sue.

Clubs and people are suing each other all the time.

But practically:

But at least if we still had Madge, and asked cc to sign an option, he says no, fine, he’s off the table and we are at least 4 weeks in front of where we are now.

We gave cc far too much say and we are paying for it. He dined out on us, the deceitful Muppet rat, but we took him out to the restaurant in the first place.

Nope …. if we decided to sack him that was the right time. You just don’t do that stuff in the off season when you’re facing a rebuild and the player market becomes active in August.

Laughable to blame the media for us being crap. The club loves fools like you.

Not having a replacement was the mistake

 

[TheDaBoss]

Morris or flanno

Tbh why not both, Morris as head coach and flanno as assistant
