Taylor has lost his job

Have to feel for the next coach especially if they're a rookie!
Surely they hire Cleary although he may have a problem with Brooks and/or Moses being on big coin and not delivering ala Panthers senior players when he took over.

If Cleary was to come in, i can almost guarantee Woods would be shipped out, and one or both of the reserve grade halves. Add Tim Grant to that list also..

Probably stating the obvious like a fat burch to the face, but considering the amount of noise in the media surrounding the so called "big four" and Taylor's contract as well, that was a remarkably insipid performance to respond to that with. Canberra in Canberra is never gonna be easy, but you have to at least show a bit of heart if your coach that you're supposed to respect has had his feet to the fire for the past week. When the media were blathering on about Bennett losing the playing group, the Broncos came out and responded. I can't say the Tigpies have done the same this afternoon.

The personality war between Taylor and Farah hasn't helped matters, but you have to wonder if Farah's poison didn't really walk out the door with him, and instead just infected the other players.
Farah's not to blame for their woes.
His move to Souths is the best he'll ever make.

I could imagine Ivan sending an Outlook invitation to "The Big 4" on his first day on the job to talk through contracts for next year;

From: Ivan Cleary
Subject: Big 4 Re-Signing with Wests Tigers

Required: James Tedesco
Optional: Aaron Woods; Mitchell Moses

Not Required: Luke Brooks

Another tosser. The media call it the "big 4". Nobody else

It's not baffling at all, it should've been done after r26 last year

Media call it the "big 4" because Isaac Moses tells them too, same the reason that Todd Payten is being touted as Taylors replacement.

The link between player agents & media (Ayoub & Moses the worst) is ridiculous and this is the prism that we should all read RL "news".

So where does the buck stop at Wests?

It's clearly not the players, they haven't been accountable for their performances in about 6 years.
Warriors cop a lot of flack for it (and deservedly so) but it doesn't take Islanders and Kiwis to have a "Bro culture", Tigers have them well covered.

2 coaches that have tried to instill standards and break the lunatics-running-the-asylum culture have been given the boot shortly after because the players actively and publicly railed against them, plus Sheens before them.

Justin Pascoe, Marina Go and the Tigers board seriously need to reflect on their ability to run a football club, because they are failing on every possible measure.

You have to be careful what you say here. Every team - with a few exceptions - are only half a dozen losses away from being in the same boat.

What's Tommy Raudonikis up to these days?

Tigers should get him in as interim coach until Cleary takes over next year. Pull some divas into line.

Wonder how many concussion tests would be required after the face slapping
