Wests Tigers confirm 2021 Football Department

[innsaneink]

Anyone know anything on the new guys

Bill Callaway played for BRET a while back, he was working in building management full time only a couple.years back

Alrighty, so the coaching staff are sorted, let's get a couple of key signings out the way next please.

You heard anything willow?

You've had some insightful news on certain player's in the past

Was this post a hint at possible signings

Nah, I've got a mate who is friends with Madge plus a couple of other people in the know on certain things but I haven't heard anything in a while. Last thing I heard which was months ago was that we were JAC's preferred destination - that came from one of his family members.

But if rumours are to be believed, he'll either be playing for Souths, Bulldogs, sticking with the storm or taking over the US Presidency from Biden and will broker a peace deal with China that will be mutually beneficial to the rest of the world...yeah, I couldn't agree with me more on that one...

Cheers for the honest reply willow

Would be awesome for tigers to announce something big soon

It would, but I suspect SOO is preventing a decision being made.

Do clubs even know the salary cap for The next seasons yet? That’s definitely a road bloke for signing new deals in the future

Will there will be Canterbury Cup or something akin to it in 2021

I hope so might all depend on how the virus goes. At least the junior grades will be back, reserve grade is the hardest one to run so it might not happen unfortunately

The issue I see with reserve grade is that some of the reserve need to be inside the bubble to allow them to be called up for NRL. You can't have them playing with and against players from outside the bubble. It is also too expensive to have them all inside the bubble as well, so I believe if the NRL needs the bubble to operate next season then reserve grade is no chance. So would be all these trial and train contracts we have been signing players too recently. Basically if you are not in the top squad I do not see you even being in preseason training.

Wonder if the Performance Coach bloke that has come over from the Sharks was around the Sharks club when they were using the go-go juice?

Was at the sharks from 2014-2019.
Can't remember the year of the go-go juice

I dont know the new guys, but it's good to get some fresh faves and new energy to the team.

But what's with shifting Ronnie to pathways??
Surely having a legend like Ronnie aro uynd the team is good for culture.

Anyone remember him sprinkling magic dust on the players in the shed before a gane a couple years back.

"magic dust"? Enough said. Time to move on from relics of the past. The clock's turned and its NOW.

Those 2 coaches that have been moved into pathway roles aren't necessarily a demotion. Madge has identified pathways as a key component of success, both Palmer and Hodgson moving into roles to upskill trainers and coaches in the junior leagues to ensure we have talent coming through that are ready for the structures of an NRL system. If our elite juniors already know how to eat and train like professionals than they are a step closer to filling their potential.

And, that's fair enough, but keep them as far away from the NRL squad as possible, in my opinion.

Hodgson is inexperienced but a club legend works in both his and the clubs favour to get him doing pathways. In his place we get a veteran assistant who can help our defence hopefully in Collins. I think it’ll be a good move for everyone.

It's always a factor Josh, and one the club takes very seriously after years of backended deals which have hurt the club. Hell, we're still paying for it after Ivan splashed truckloads at Reynolds and Packer who couldn't deliver a newspaper yet alone a decent result on the field.

Madge has been pretty big on fixing our salary cap. 2022 is the promised land hopefully he can deliver with some good signings if he’s around still (whcih I hope he is)

Why would he not be around?

I think he will be, he just isn’t technically signed on for 2022 at this point. I hope he is though

Can only judge the new team mid season .. hopefully it’s positive.

Didn't he sign for 2 more years, he was already signed for 2021, so that makes it the end of 2023 by my estimation.

Good news. I hope he can teach our 9s how to kick. It is a huge advantage.
