Who should be our next Head Coach?

So Tigers are going to choose a new coach and should he look at this thread he will.see that many fans wanted someone else

So what? Why should that preclude opinion?johnthegriff wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 12:41 pm So Tigers are going to choose a new coach and should he look at this thread he will.see that many fans wanted someone else
Re: Who should be the next Head Coach / DoR at Tigers?
TBH, I dont know enough aboutthe 2 Dans and Leon McDonald to have an opinion really. Apart from my Ulster fan mate saying we're welcome to McFarland, but he's always very pessimistic when it comes to rugby.

Well it has to be a Scot or at least one with a Scottish history.

Re: Who should be the next Head Coach / DoR at Tigers?
I doubt the head coach would mind. Anyone taking over from Borthwick would have the have the mindset of "I'll win them over when we start winning games". Let's face it, it's not a job that comes without pressure.fentiger wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 12:46 pmSo what?

Plus the chances are people are voting for the coach they know the most about so McKellar and McDonald would probably not take it seriously. Most Tigers fans won't have seen one of their teams play.

Townsend for me. I think he did a brilliant job at Glasgow and Scotland and think we'd see some brilliant rugby.
That said,I would be delighted with Cotter or Cheika too. Don't know much about McKellar or Mcdonald and not blown away by Dan McFarland.

I think it’s a bit of fun and if a Coach looked at this forum and saw they were second choice and chucked their toys out the cot, maybe they are not of the moral fibre we need? I voted Cheika for what it’s worth.johnthegriff wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 12:41 pm So Tigers are going to choose a new coach and should he look at this thread he will.see that many fans wanted someone else

Well he only has one vote on the poll so far but if HighveldTiger72 turns up on the board I will have my suspicions.fentiger wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 6:12 pm...only the one?wigworth wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 5:22 pmRassie will have a burner account set up on here by the weekend.johnthegriff wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 12:41 pm So Tigers are going to choose a new coach and should he look at this thread he will.see that many fans wanted someone else
