Do the Tigers have a wrestling coach ?

I was reading this article regarding the wrestling coach of Souths:- http://www.newazakilla.com/interview-alex-prates-part-1/

I also just watched Anthony Perosh win his UFC fight and it was awesome. Anthony's gym is also at Concord.

If the Tigers don't have a wrestling coach they should employing Anthony to act in that role. He is a quality person and he would be one of it not the best performed Jiu-Jitsu guy in Australia including the Souths and Dogs wrestling coaches.

That seems to make a lot of sense,our defence has been an issue for a number of years now and only regressed this season.For too long ball carriers have not been put to the ground.It will be an area that JT will have to address asap,i read some where he had some success with Souths when he arrived there improving their defence.

Perosh would be too busy concentrating on his own career though there's quite a few BJJ Blackbelts a SPMA. His gym though is abit on the small side for say 25-30 blokes plus coaches

The wrestle isn't our initial worry.

First contact, defence positioning, technique, defensive line structures are all bigger issues we must fix before we can consider winning the wrestle.

I don't get why there isn't more love for this idea. The guys could fit into the gym easily. There are also plenty of other guys who could coach them if Anthony wasn't available.

Souths and the dogs have wrestling coaches. Why don't we one up them.

Because the wrestle is such a stain on the game of rugby league, it is hard to discuss it in a positive manner.
