Wests Tigers assistant coach John Morris departs after 2026 season

The Wests Tigers confirmed that assistant coach John Morris will leave the club at the end of the 2026 season. Morris joined the staff in 2024 to support head coach Benji Marshall during his initial years in the role. Beyond his coaching tenure, Morris maintains a history with the club as a former player. Following his departure, the organization will conduct an internal review of the men's NRL program. This process, led by Senior Manager of NRL Pat Richards, aims to establish foundations for the 2027 season and beyond. The club is currently examining all elements of its operations to address performance after a season that did not meet early expectations.
