Tigers will never learn... Always had old club men coming in stopping them from evolving and moving on from the past. Farah, Marshall, Farah again and now Sheen's. They won't make finals for ages now.

Short memories you lot
Twice created a playing style that suited his specific squad(s) and took them to glory
Before that also started to turn Penrith in to a serious club instead of easybeats
Made superstars of many players at both clubs
It’s rumoured for a short term only while he develops a new coach
Great call by the Tigers if true

His 2005 gameplay revolving around speed using his small mobile pack to concentrate on quick play the balls ..was brilliance.. no team could stay with em.

He is no mug, Bennett is older and can still coach by the way.
The shit either starts at the top or stops there.

This is going to be an epic fail imo (I think the game is so far past Tim Sheens), they should just go get John Morris or someone like that... I mean Shane Flanagan's still available ffs...

I agree with you both. It wouldn't be a bad move for them. He'll adapt his gameplay to suit the roster and he generally had a knack for teaching his squads to be in the right positions throughout the game so teammates knew instinctively where the support was and when to expect a pass as a support player.

These types of decisions are a result of going out for lunch starting early day drink sessions.

Yeah..but the game plan was spot on.. Sheens coached to their strengths..speed and mobility.. Got to give it to him..he identified it a coached them to do it.. Mind you they would never get anywhere near those heights again..

As soon as he was appointed back at the club everyone knew this would happen, thought it was odd him making the call on Maguire when you knew ge was a very good chance of taking his Job…. Not a great look of impartiality

I agree on that part for sure, not many of the good coaches in the NRL do that these days, esp the day 1ers

This thread is going to reveal all the retirees who are on TK, "whaddayamean he's too old!!??"
Im retired - i think the potential issue for someone Sheen's age is the ability to relate to players 50 years younger than him. Will he be respected as a wise senior figure woth listening to or as an old fart trying to revive a bygone era?
