Official Wests Tigers 2021 Rise of the 9th thread

Looks like the info from function was spot on.
Wayne will also be given a full payout by broncos due to his service for them $1.2m is the figure

so who coaches the broncos next year?

Madge maybe ? Or do they write offnext season and go all out Seibold for 2020. Then there's the wholeuninforced off field cap. If they do pay out Bennett $1.2M then you would think if they get anyone half deecent they are going to go over.

Looks like Wayne is staying in Brisbane.
BREAKING: Wayne Bennett has just committed to the Broncos for 2019 - at their presentation night right now he promised he’d be there next year.

Wayne Bennett at Brisbane presentation night.

"Yeah, laters cunts I'm out. Darius, go start the car . Bring a sweater."

He's not going to say at a Broncos awards night that he's leaving. He'll go.

He needs to say that if he wants to get paid out for next year

Coming from one of a few reliable posters on wt forum..
Maguire and Bennett have both agreed to terms with tigers. Maguire for 2019 and Bennett for 2020. Now up to the tigers to decide who they want. Announcement due this week according to the poster.

Maguire to be named coach of tigers, only way it changes is if Bennett changes his mind in the next 24-36 hours about coaching brisbane in 2019.

Brooks has also agreed to re-sign on a 3 year deal

I'm in 2 minds, I prefer Bennett because of his drawing power but he's getting too old. Also has a habit of leaving clubs in poor financial positions

Mcguire is younger, and may have won a premiership with Souths but he also had a couple of lean years with a darn good side. Is he that good?

Nov 1 isn't far away, so can the Tigers be smart enough to lure Bennett and bring Pangai Jnr, Oates and Glenn with him. Or go Mcguire, releasing Cleary and receive some compensation from the Panthers, in the form of some players. We need to be smarter than fucktard Gould.

In Cleary Madge we trust

Tigers draw for the 2019 season is supposedly one of the easier ones, but this can only mean a bigger failure is on the cards. The Tigers can't handle "easy" games.

If we are releasing our bus driver I hope we get some sort of compensation, but knowing the Tigers we won't and Gus will be all smiles. I have lost all respect for Cleary after this and hope he fails at the Panfers

So Madge will be the coach? Thats not bad for a few years.

Its done, Cleary back to Penny and Madge to the Tigpies

Best result is brissy, with Seibold emerging at the best young coach in the league. Will be interesting to see if he can keep it up. Pressure is on him now!
Benny.. well he has a fairly successful good roster to work with again.
Penrith get to keep the clearys.
Tigpies get a hard nosed coach who will fix their defence and fitness.

Ivan Cleary has texted Wests Tigers players this afternoon confirming Michael Maguire will be named his successor tomorrow morning. He spoke of the stress he has caused the group before he joins Penrith.

G'day boys
I hope this finds you well and enjoying your time off, I was writing to you in the hope of beating the press.. to let you know that I will no longer be your coach at Wests Tigers. This is an extremely uncomfortable situation for me as I have genuine fondness for the club, and I have loved coaching you all.. I understand that this situation has caused some pain for people that I care about, along with putting the club in an awkward situation... I do not feel good about this. I would have preferred to do this in person but time and circumstances have made that impossible. I hope we meet again soon and I wish you all the very best in the future. You have my number and I am always open for a chat if you wish.
Iv.

I don't get the Cleary hype. He's won nothing. Ever.

Well its official now, bye bye Cleary. I do hope the Tigers have been compensated but I doubt it, they're too stupid and Gus too clever, I bet the DH has a grin from ear to ear, how I'd love to wipe that smirk off his face. The best way to do that is to finish in front of the Panthers next year, so come on Madge, we have faith.

$400K

It's nice when another club is paying 3 coaches. Griff, Madge & Cleary = $2M

Why would the Tigers get or deserve compensation from the Panthers? They've released a coach to sign another one. Totally on them!
