Cleary Says The Rebuild Hasn't Started Yet At The Tigers

After slumping to their seventh-straight loss of the season, it's looking pretty grim at the Tigers.

However, coach Ivan Cleary has remained positive and said that despite signing or re-signing nine players since arriving mid-year, the shake-up is far from over.

"There's a lot of things that have changed really since I first got here. Without going into detail, in effect (the rebuild) hasn't really started yet," Cleary said.

"We're just trying to concentrate on the present.

"We've got a whole team of guys in there who are working really hard, are down on confidence and just trying to work on those little aspects of the game, learn the game.

"We'll keep working hard, a few things will bounce our way and all of a sudden confidence kicks in and things can change. We'll be back on the horse next week."
