Wests Tigers confirm 2017 NRL Coaching structure

[Nucky_Thompson]

Im a bit meh about all this tbh, was expecting/ hoping for a new, external appointment for defense
If nothing changes, nothing changes…theyve all been here before
That said I'll give them a chance

The reserve grade team defended pretty well last year.

I thought they were avoiding the 'D' word in that article

Good luck Andrew & Paul…the pressure is on you

Good luck to them, yes and correct the pressure will be on them but the buck stops with JT.

I will be disappointed if we have a bad defensive year and the club/supporters blamed Andrew and Paul alone for any shortcomings.

JT has changed the coaches every year, Sandercock is the only one left, he can't keep sacking the coaches he hires and keep his job if we again fall short.

Safety in numbers for JT. More heads to roll be fore his does.

British Leyland gave us the P76 (admittedly it had its hard core supporters) and now the WTs give us JT (again for the 3rd year). And yes we have the JT lovers.

Pawsandclaws - Youre still here? I thought youd be on the rabbitohs forum?

I do no see the need to bing Webster to he club ..I am disappointed a proven defensive coach was not appointed but this doesn't smell a bit of Taylor not wanting anyone around that would threaten his position .
This is a backward step IMO the club had the perfect time to restructure with proven expierance …a lot of crap talk coming from the club ATM!

Good to hear… Hope stringer can get the same from firsts

A lot of you people would find a way to put crap on Santa Claus.

The only way that Taylor will find a friend on this forum, is to win the bloody comp.

Even then I am not sure that would happen.

PS. Please go to Souths and resume your love affair with Farah. Leave us alone.

:bash :bash :bash :bash

Santa Claus isn't real col
:crazy

Andrew Webster and Craig Sandercock are very good assistant coaches. They balance out Taylor and Stringer.

 

[westy81]

I think it's the best coaching staff we have had in a long time especially the assistants, I'm glad to see Webster back, I was bummed when he left

Spreading the blame! Didn't mention witches hat duty either.

 

[jadtiger]

Jt has more "assistants" for next season i wonder how many of those will take the responsibility for poor defence.

Has he sacked anyone for next season? Seems to me, no he hasn't. One went to coach the Kiwis and one stayed on while the reserves coach, Stringer, got promoted and Webster came back to the club.

Every hater on the forum was screaming for the defence coach to go and now that he has, they're still not happy. We at least need to see how they go before putting the boot in.

 

[matchball]

This forum is going to be such a bore after every loss.
Tedesco will knock a ball on over the line to win the game and somehow JT will need to be sacked.

I can't believe some people will be watching us play with conflicting emotions. Wanting a win and wanting a loss to see JT under pressure.
Pathetic.

 

[krayola]

They haven't even started training and the negativity starts. We signed extra personnel to address the main issue and most still not happy.
Good to see they have two coaches working on defence.

It is a fact mate, JT came and brought his own coaches, failed and sacked them, missed the 8 again and sacked another lot, it is not negativity, it is a fact, I hope it improves, but if it doesn't the head coach is at fault and needs to go.

Is it a fact though? Pretty sure the board or CEO would have a say in who are appointed as coaches.
It is a fact, as Taylor says, that he oversees all of it, so you're right that he should cop a lot of blame if it doesn't work. Even if he did sack his previous assistants, they've all gone to do…nothing. Big deal. All I can see here is another positive move, the likes of which have far outweighed the negative in the last year, the loss of JAC being the exception.

Hang on , didn't Potter bring Kidwell ??

I have been told that Moses and Brooks asked for Webster to come back to the club.
I think he is a great appointment as he is very highly regarded in the coaching community even though he is early 30's.

that's curious.

Got no problem with the changes, onwards and upwards.

If that's true, does that mean that now they're are running the club??
Isn't that what the experts here were Constantly blasting our ex Captain for?

Where's all their favourite cries now that " Coaches coach , and players play"
Wonder how long it will be before they will be attacked for being the new so called " cancer ", in the club.
Don't you just love double standards . :laughing:
