The Wests Tigers have fired head coach Jason Taylor three weeks into the National Rugby League season following back-to-back losses to Canberra and Penrith. Taylor, who held the point-scoring record when he retired as a player in Australia’s top-flight competitio­n in 2001, was in the final year of a three-season contract at Wests Tigers. Taylor took over as head coach in 2015. Assistant coach Andrew Webster will be the interim head coach.
