Wests Tigers Head of Football, Matthew Betsey Episode 65 BTR

This gives a bit of an insight into the club's direction and the development of players in our Pathways System.
We can't expect too much from our youth this year. Whilst their inclusion into the NRL was a good learning curve it should be treated as such and not as an indicator of their prowess...players like Luke now need to go back and play Fegg for 80min a game and develop their skills. The fact that we signed Skelton is an indicator of this.

Chris I know you follow us on WT LU Forum so can I request you find a way to get to the point quicker in the BTR podcasts.
In the last episode it was nearly 6min before you started talking about what we really wanted to hear.
The BTR has been a must listen for us supporters. Well done you guys. See you next season.
Cheers mate :)

Richo published a congrats on the WT Website but also had a dig at unloyal players. I thought this was unusual and I felt we were going back to our former admin ways. I mean it's the sort of statement that Pascoe would make.
Part of it reads.....
“Luke spent more than a decade as a Wests Tigers player, so he will always be a part of this family.
He showed loyalty when many didn’t.”
Brooks has gone, we've given him the BBQ, bye bye. Thoughts?

Total BS.Im starting to lose faith in Richo as this has nothing to do with showing loyalty.Unlike Moses the turd & Shazza nobody else wanted the lemon & his manager Isaac was easily able to swindle the imbeciles Pascoe & co into retaining the bum on top $.

The lemon was paid handsomely for 11 yrs giving us Fk all in return hence y the need to acknowledge him when playing for another club.Richo uve dropped the ball big time on this one & u have bigger fish to fry so get to it.

Agree, we showed (blind) loyalty where others wouldn’t have.

Take away all the emotions and history of it all, my query was 'why'
It wasn't necessary.
The way it reads is it's the sentiment from all the club and it's supporters. I certainly didn't say it.
I'm one of the few that like Brooks but if I am the CEO I'd be sending him a personal note/email, not one from the entire WT family.
