Shane Flanagan says he would be willing to apply for a vacant assistant coaching position at the Wests Tigers. Multiple outlets report Flanagan is not opposed to pursuing the role, outlining his reasons for being open to the opportunity.
The reports provide similar context: the Tigers’ assistant coaching vacancy has prompted interest from within the NRL coaching ranks, and Flanagan’s comments address questions about whether he would consider the job. While the sources focus on his willingness, they do not present a fully agreed timeline for when the club will make any appointment.
Across the coverage, the emphasis is on Flanagan’s position rather than any confirmed hiring decision. None of the outlets cited in this set indicate that Flanagan has already been selected, nor do they attribute the vacancy to a specific departing coach in the provided summaries. Instead, they frame his remarks as an indication of openness to joining the Tigers’ coaching staff if the club pursues him for the role.
