So this is how you admit you are a full of shit c**k sucker. You know absolutely nothing about what Harry chucks into the club and yet your argument is because Harry is a benefactor we should be flush with money. Just explain to me logically how you can have a point yet not know shit about Harry's contributions to Wests Tigers. If you don't have a point you are a lying POS f**kwit. I think we all know what you are.

You are the weakest pansy assed piece of shit ever. You have basically admitted that you are full of shit but still you try and justify the dribble that comes from your mouth.

You have just been granted no 1 c**k sucker status. You are a complete full of shit tool.

Most men when they are completely in the wrong admit it. Grow a set and man up you f**ken POS.

I would have thought we have excellent membership, best crowd figures in Sydney basin, high profile TV personality players, more TV games than other Sydney teams, media darlings, excellent player retention (in 12 years we've lost hardly anyone we wanted to keep), Benji is an icon that draws kids and a new supporter base to Tigers.

There might be some significant mistakes in recent seasons but there are plenty of positives as well that more than outweigh the negatives and leave us presently as one of the strongest clubs in Sydney. Plenty of other clubs I wouldn't want to be.

Ink says:- The club though is really struggling and even with Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and the Sultan of Brunei as a major benefactor's we are struggling financially. This is due to mismanagement of the club. Of course I can't tell you if their benefactor status is based on buying a raffle ticket for the weekly meat prize at Ashfields leagues club or if they have given the club 100 billion dollars each. I leave the details and reality of the situation to others. I just make trolling full of shit comments that I can't back up.

I say Ink is a complete f**kwit and that the club will be fine. I also don't make full of shit trolling comments and imply I know where Gates and Co spend their money.

Just a few corrections.
Yeh there are plenty of positives, I gave one example of a negative...things could be a lot worse.

Tripple M's Saturday morning panel indicated that the WT financial problems are due in part to the redevelopment of the Balmain Leagues club and the money drain that it is causing by its stalled building proceedings.At the same time it was also mentioned that the club was still paying developers and that Ben Elias was involved in the development company,whether or not this is true i am not sure, but if it is it definitely would have a flow on effect within the club concerning financial matters eg. paying out Sheens.

Of course Benny has his hands in the jar.
He stands to make a killing once this development goes ahead.

Sad to say but he is a cancer.

No, your club is not the worst run club. You're getting Braith and he has just spent $500 000 on his Balinese wedding. So boys you gotta match it. According to Women's Weekly she spent $50 000 on the dress. Good to see they have their priorities right.

Matt Parish withdraws from running to coach Wests Tigers as board split sees club in crisis

MATT Parish has withdrawn from the Wests Tigers coaching race - but the 10-member board is still to agree unanimously on a replacement.

The chase to replace Tim Sheens has become a mess.

Mick Potter remains the hot favourite and should be appointed at a board
meeting tomorrow night.

It seems those directors resisting Potter will finally agree to appoint the former Canterbury and St George star ahead of Kevin Walters.

There is still a faction on the board though who want Parish - but they are outnumbered.

It is understood the coaching job must be unanimous among the 10 joint venture directors - five from Western Suburbs, five from Balmain.

Tired of waiting for a decision at Concord, Parish has told Parramatta he will be an assistant coach alongside Ricky Stuart for the next three years.



The decision will ensure Parish can also be used on Laurie Daley's NSW State of Origin coaching staff.

Parish was initially all but promised the Wests Tigers coaching job but somehow lost support at board level.

The Tigers have been procrastinating for weeks now on a new coach - frustrating all candidates.

Parish had strong support from rugby league giants Daley, Stuart, Steve Roach and Ben Elias.

That support though was discarded by some Tigers board members.

If the ten member board is split, chairman Dave Trodden - aligned to Balmain - would have the casting vote.There appears to be acrimony at board level between the two factions, Wests and Balmain.

Potter, who coached Bradford this year in Super League, was not answering his mobile phone yesterday.

He will be Tigers coach but there are still elements on the board not overcome with Potter.

The successful candidate will face a tough and demanding battle.

He will be coming in late as a rookie coach to a club with little cash and board issues.

"Good luck to him - he will need it,'' said one high-profile rival coach. "It will be a tough gig, especially for a young coach.

Sounds like the mess that you read about at Manly and their board.

A year with a new coach and re-assess.

You run the hatchet too uickly with too broad a scope and you almost certainly do more harm then good.

As fans & members we are a little in the dark with the coaching situation but I can deal with that as long as we make the right decisions and the sponsors and organisation moves forward as one from that point.

I think we are the best run club in the NRL.

We have a great bunch of players including juniors and reserves and we have shown that we expect results and that even a coach of Sheens standing will be sacked if results do not occur.

To add to that I think Potter sounds like a great choice.

Go Tigers !!!

Dont make Sheens out like he is the 2nd coming of Gibson or Bennett. He is a coach who has made 3 finals series since 1997.
No "supercoach" goes from a GF win (2005) to missing the finals for the next 4 seasons.
No "supercoach" puts their halfback to fullback after 4 rounds!

I was only thinking this this morning, the un-named article about Sheens angry at Rumours benji is running the show.

Why do WTs cop so much rumour innuendo and spec in the media, Im unsure if its because i follow them it seems to be more attributed to us, but other clubs dont seem to cop the hammering we get, the rumours, the stories and fabrications....a lot isdue to the club....they leave things unanswered for long periods of time, they have players making their own announcememnts via media unconfirmed or unauthorised thru the club......yes it does seem the players do pretty much what they want, sheens is apparently angry....yet hes allowed this to fester.

Cuzzo has some things to answer for imo....reat with the ''gunna'' articles...oneof the best...Im sure its not him alone, club policy would dictate what he can and cant do....we need a much much better relationship that we currently have with the media

It's because the bloke spends half his day trawling the Internet to see if someone had posted something negative about the tigers. Or 4 days trying to get wrestlers from America that about 1.3% of the population have heard of to come to training for the day. Then from 12-6pm on Tuesday's he sits at his desk pulling himself stupid about how people are whinging about not knowing the team when it's been on his desk since 11am (this sentence is 100% true, I know someone who did work placement at the tigers and confirmed it)

He stutters every second word and can't even pronounce 'th' properly. How this guy is our face to the media is as big a joke as sheens coaching record.

Mate, I'll bite. Who are you talking about - Marshall, Sheens or Humphrey? I have no idea reading your blog.
