Shouldn't we let the appointees set things up before stating the roof has fallen in. Let's see how they go for a while before bagging them, we need to restructure after the disaster that was Ricky

Very excited about the pending appointment and 2014. Good recruits coming, gold jerseys returning, new sponsor and a new era.

So has Stuart and hagan, would you like them here are well???

ask a Tigers fan what they think of him.

No, but I think he's a significantly better coach than either of them, and at least his teams look like they at least have a coach. Not saying he's my first choice. He did poorly at the Cowboys, had a 49% winning record at Wests, and 51% career win record. He's competent.

Sheens really???

I hope this is paper talk I really do, Sheens record since he left Canberra is Ricky like.

Record at what? The Tigers consistently produce quality players. That's why they're able to let so many go.

Agree his tactics aren't necessarily conducive to consistent success, but a big part of that has been due to trying to build a gameplan around Marshall for all these years. He probably should have been turned into a fullback long ago, but Sheens did try.

Anyway, Sheens as Director of Football could be a master stroke.

Mate even thinking about signing this fossil is a worry.

This is the bloke who replaced Prince with Morris at 7.

Let Fafita go to pay huge money for Blair, take out his record at a raiders side a blind monkey could have coached and his record is terrible for a long term coach. Remember him at a struggling club like the cowboys??

We are in that same boat he would be an absolute disaster.

Smith as head of coaching and JT and Arthur's are our best bet IMO.
At least Smith has a great record as a club builder.

it helps have two junior bases to choose from. I've said my piece on him he is a step up from Ricky but he is no that we need.

Does the fact that parish hasn't moved mean he is still in the running, or at least that the candidate(s) is/are someone he is happy to work with?
