Wests Tigers GM of Football Operations

[MAFIA]

Amateur hour yet again at the Tigers. This is a role that should be head hunted… Not posted on Seek. You reckon the Panthers filled this role with Phil Gould through Seek? Bloody hell

Please your post is a tad stupid champ, anytime the club looks like it is doing something positive you still find a negative it's people like you that pisses me off no end at least the club is actually doing something

A dream job.

Perfect job for the Milkster

 

[supercoach]

A very good first step in a long road to recovery. What's wrong with throwing this job out their into the wider community?????You never know who you might attract,their are a lot people out their who love a massive challenge.

It's a very positive move so let's not look for negatives,we have had enough of them this year to last a life time!!!!!!

:deadhorse:

100% correct…GM/Senior Management roles are never advertised on seek. There are Executive Head Hunting firms companies go to for such roles....They charge a hefty recruitment fee but its worth it.....if "you pay peanuts you get monkeys!"

The reason for advertising on Seek is the CEO's way of saying any one can have a shot at the position. He will want to be seen as not being bias to who ever gets the job.
This is how a CEO answers to a board.

I am glad you saw it that way cause that's how I first interpreted it too.

 

[NT_Tiger]

If it works the way my place works, they have already head hunted one or more preferred candidates. The advertisement is to 1) appear to be fair and unbiased, and if they're smart 2) to test the waters to see who else is out there they haven't thought of. Either way it looks to be a positive step.

 

[happy_tiger]

Honestly though , they probably already have a short list of people who are interested They may have already chosen the person

Sheens would be good at this role I believe

Someone with coaching experience , Someone who can oversee the entire Wests Tigers football operation and needs to have the gift of the gab to help with recruitment and retention

Rules Folkes and Brian Smith out I reckon ,, they are about as subtle as a sledgehammer

You'd want someone under 45 years old also

Laurie Daley or Fittler for me

Fittler learnt a lot from Gus

 

[innsaneink]

We currently have no one doing this?

 

[Chris]

I think that's correct, Ink.

 

[happy_tiger]

I think that's correct, Ink.

Imagine this job would of be shared between McDonnell ,Potter ,Fletcher , Webster and overseen by Mayer

Could be wrong , it is the WT's we are talking about :laughing:

 

[happy_tiger]

Honestly it wouldn't be that hard a role

A lot of hours and work yes , but you wouldn't need to be Einstein

The main thing I guess would be having all three teams on the same page , much like Melbourne

The LHS second rower in the NYC team is doing exactly what the LHS second rower in the NRL side is doing and could be brought in at a moments notice if needed

To quote Michael Caton "Tell Happy he's dreaming "

 

[Chris]

I think that's correct, Ink.

It's probably close to the mark, Happy.

What I dont get is the current board cant make any decisions. Why are they advertising this position? Is the new NRL board going to take over any day now? Has someone already claimed the position? Something just doesnt sit well with me. Nothing this place has done over the last few months hasnt sat well with me.

Something has to be happening behind the scenes.

You will find that Sheens was offered this roll before we parted company and rejected it!!
It would be the perfect roll for him, but he was above it then… Reallity may have set in by now.
I think that you will find this position is already filled, Or at least shortlisted.... The add would be merely a "going through the motions type add" to eliminate, Backlash or claims of bias.... And who knows, You may jag a "Gus Type" who wants to help out....

 

[softlaw]

$150k is lowball for that job
Pay peanuts, get monkeys.

 

[Guest]

I reckon CB or King Sirro should apply for this job…Or maybe...Irvine! Dust off your CV champ, it's clobbering time!

 

[happy_tiger]

Willow I don't know if you would need a hard arse for this role

I would be wanting a hard arse in the CEO ,coaches and on the board

This role could be held by someone with some pizazz and some NRL clout

That's why I reckon Fittler or Daley would be good choices

Someone who could play good cop in among some hard bad cops

Also would help with the recruitment side of things

Look what effect Rusty Crowe has during contract negotiations

I don't know enough about Daley or Fittler to be sure, but its unlikely they have the skills to take on what is effectively an Ops Manager role.
