Plenty of good points made.

 

What are people's predictions on the outcome of the current circus? I reckon the board will hang Pascoe out to dry to save themselves. Sheens departs immediately also.

think Sheens and Marshall both go this week and Pascoe gets the punt 

 

 

No chance Pascoe goes

If he doesn't I don't see the Club surviving. I don't understand the persistence with a CEO who clearly cannot escape chaos.

Hers's my guess:

  • Lee and Pascoe realise Benji thinks he owns the place and remind him that Fulton is staying. Benji says its Me or Him. Benji leaves. Tim finds out about it from the DT and resigns.
  • Robbie hears about it from Benji and sees an opportunity to Coach. Lee tells SEN Robbies not interested in Coaching. Robbie resigns.
  • Dave Furner thinks he is a special to get the Job. He find out from Ricky Stewart that Sheensey told him he's no chance. Dave resigns.
  • Gardiner and Kimmorly put their names forward as a coaching duo and are offended when Lee wont take their call. They refuse to resign so Leee and Pascoe do it for them.
  •  
  • BRIAN SMITH IS THE NEW COACH ON A 10 YEAR 20 MILLION DOLLAR DEAL.

Chammas also reported that the Tigers had held "secret meetings" with a number of player agents who had become concerned "with the development of young players" under Marshall and current head coach Tim Sheens.

"They want assurances that there will be changes to the coaching staff next year, bringing in someone like Justin Holbrook or John Morris," he said.

Marshall is scheduled to take over the coaching reins from Sheens from next season.

Anyone heard any rumours of TDS wanting out, the other forum mail is he was not happy with benji.

One of the agents in attendance was Mario Tartak, who pushed strongly with Tigers powerbrokers to employ Fulton. Tartak holds the key when it comes to the signature of highly sought-after Manly teenager Latu Fainu, who is one of his clients.

Fainu and his brother Samuela, who both featured in the NSW under 19 Origin win over Queensland on Thursday night, have been linked with a move to the Tigers given their relationship with Fulton but are holding off on making a decision.

So the Fulton camp trying to gain power. What a surprise.

it would be great to get John Morris in but I don’t see how we chance tact before even giving Benji a shot. The current coaching structure was always a massive risk or reward situation and it has blown up before it’s even began.

Do you think he’s got the kids lined up and is just waiting until those who are trying to turf him are gone? Or is he just hot air? 

from the outside looking in he has done nothing but causing chaos within the club

Terrible decision to bring Fulton in. It was always going to end in chaos. Lee & Pascoe wouldn’t have seen it coming like they don’t see most things. Terrible management now trying to save their arses.

Given we are a 'development club' with a coaching plan supposedly focused on development and WT DNA. We were told the only way out was through internal development.

It's such a strange/strange dumb move to blow all that up for a recruitment manager, coming from outside the club and has ruined everything in 6 weeks

Top 8 2023

Tartak owns literally all our good young kids as well as the fainu’s. Sheens and Benji have no power base outside the fans and with the results the way they are they are in a weak position. I wonder who Tartak wants to be the coach.

Something is brewing API and Paps not happy , Buz says after contacting their managers . The Tigers are very unhappy place ATM apparently which IMO would be a normal response considering the season that’s been had. Feel something around the coaches will give soon , get the impression that Fulton will be staying :

Api's manager is quoted in the SMH saying he's happy with the coaching.

that sounds like "full support of the board"

Api's manager is not goingnto cone out abd say he is unhappy especially being captain of the club...

@tigertownsfs I don't think Tartak minds Benji being the coach. What he doesn't like is when Benji does his own recruiting. e.g He's called Shaun Johnson, Mitch Pearce and Jock Madden directly  (if you believe the reports). Benji knows all those blokes so doesn't think twice about calling them up.

The managers get their nose out of joint with this because they like to be involved.

haha yeah I guess given Benji has struck out on all those calls perhaps talking to the managers might be a good idea
