Heres a suggestion,why doesn't everyone put down the heavy artillery,pitchforks,swords,daggers and even the cannon fodder,and give JT the chance to do good things with this team this year to prove wether or not he can make the finals with the players he has..if there is no improvement or wins in the next 5/6 rounds then bring out whatever you need to send him out the door…we can sit down and be keyboard warriors all we like and pass on our opinions...the difference is that JT is the club elect for coach and he is the boss,the pressure is on him to get results,theres no pressure on the keyboard side of things.....give him the chance and support he deserves for at least putting his hand up and coaching the team after all the dramas previously and during his tenure.....

JT’S SMITH TRICK
Is Wests Tigers coach Jason Taylor up to one of Brian Smith’s old favourite tricks in relation to young gun outside back Moses Suli?
Despite the fact Suli has trained on the left wing for the majority of the pre-season, Jordan Rankin’s name appeared on the Wests Tigers team sheet on Tuesday.
Suli was named as a reserve in jumper No. 21 and also named to play NSW Cup. But we’ll be stunned if Suli doesn’t run out for his NRL debut against South Sydney on Friday night.
In Taylor’s defence, he is probably just trying to take some heat off a rookie on debut.
It was one of Smith’s favourite tricks during his time as a head coach at Parramatta, Newcastle and the Sydney Roosters.
JT spent a season under Smith in 2001 at Parramatta and then took over as caretaker coach of the Eels in 2006 when Smith ended his tenure.

If he comes in i would assume Rankin will move to the bench pushing either MCK or Edwards out altogether. Rankin to provide cover for McIlwrick. Fingers crossed JJ comes in too, but i doubt 2 players from the 4 reserves will come in.

If you sack a coach you'd want to be sure you're not going backwards. We'd want to be talking to someone decent.

JT confirms Suli "could" play. To me that pretty much confirms he's in. If he wasn't playing he'd just say he isn't. There'd be no need for guessing games.

JLJ would be good odds to be added I'd say. I doubt McIlwick will play 80 minutes.
