One coach who has no trouble with a new face is the Tigers' Michael Maguire, who will welcome highly-respected veteran Tim Sheens onto his staff with open arms. The pair go way back - Sheens handed Maguire his top-grade debut as a player way back in 1992 and the pair have always been close. Sheens won't be a threat to Maguire - his role will be mainly in pathways and development. The former Kangaroos coach has been working in England for several years but will forever remain a part of Tigers folklore, having delivered the club its lone premiership in such rousing style in 2005. Sheens won't be back for nearly a month however - he has committed to coaching the 'Exiles' team that plays England in a one-off international in three weeks.

Welcome back Tim Sheens
ReplyDeletemany years ago, when Tim Sheens was HC of the Raiders, I saw a sign at a game: the green machine, polished by mister sheens. am sure the polish is still the same from 2005.
