The Wests Tigers have finally settled on a head of football, but it comes with one major catch.
The Wests Tigers have appointed Matthew Betsey as the club's interim head of football; however, there is no timeline on when they will announce who steps into the full-time role.
Premiership-winning coach Tim Sheens was announced as the head of football in 2021 before he took over as coach this year.
But that partnership didn't last long, with Sheens stepping down after less than a year in the role, leading Benji Marshall to be fast-tracked into the head coach job for 2024.
It remains unclear who will become the club's long-term football manager, with Mark O'Neill floated as one of the possibilities given his strong links to the team as well as his experience with the Eels.
Former Wallabies coach Michael Cheika has also been mentioned, but we won't know for sure until a review into the club's woeful on-field performances has been completed.
"As has been stated publicly, a final appointment in this position is on hold until the Holman Barnes Group Review has been completed.
At present, there is no fixed timeline as to when this will conclude," the club wrote in a statement.
