Season ‘22

[Tiger Ted]

I think you’re right. Real shame about Liddle, he looked better then he did all last year in the couple of trials. Guess we’ll see what Jake Simpkin has, will get at least 4 games in the 9. My guess is this what we’ll see for Round 1:

1. Laurie
2. Maumalo
3. Gildart
4. Roberts
5. Nofoaluma
6. Hastings
7. Brooks
8. Utoikamanu
9. Simpkin
10. Twal
11. Tuilagi
12. Leilua
13. Ofahengaue
14. Peachey
15. Mikaele
16. Musgrove
17. Seyfarth

Very likely the best team we can currently field.Hence we r in massive trouble & extremely likely in for another long/shit season.I like the bench but extremely dislike the useless soft prick Ofahengue.We need to find a way to move the pea heart on & make sure we retain Tuilagi.Additionally the 3/4’s & the halfback are enormous liabilities.Love them to prove me wrong !

No Garner? Or is he injured?

Already mentioned.

 

[BrotherJim05]

Give that Rua kid a shot off the bench. Let him grab it with both hands and push his way into the side. He was f**king epic in that trial I would love to see him rewarded

 

[BrotherJim05]

1. Laurie
2. Nofa
3. JTJ
4. Gidart
5. Malo
6. Brooks
7. Hastings
8. Stefano
9. Simpkin
10. Twal
11. Tuilagi
12. Luciano "Still the f**king Man" Leilua
13. Peachy

14. Ofa
15. Musgrove
16. Seyfarth
17. Rua

13. Peachy

14. Ofa
15. Musgrove
16. Seyfarth
17. Rua

I'd swap Ofa and Peachy but this is pretty close to our best available side.

 

[glockers]

Is that what your hearing Glockers ? Id only go with Peachy on the bench.

Not hearing the double bench thing, but just tossing it out there as a possibility. Speed of the game makes a more adaptable bench an option.

 

[super_coach]

I would play Maden at 14, and have either Brooks or Hastings play nine when Simkins needs a break. Not sold on The Peach at D/H

 

[BrotherJim05]

I've never seen the value of having a half/utility on the bench unless it's a must-win game and you can't risk an mid-game injury. Dummy half is such an important role and none of our 9s can play 80 minutes. Would much rather see Simpkin and Rua tag team it up and have Peachy at 13. If there is an injury then simply move Peachy to 2nd Row or Centre (shuffling centre/wing if wing/fullback injured) and have a bench forward move to 13.

I think putting Madden on our bench is going to hamper his game. Would much rather seem him wearing the 7 jersey in reserve grade until he gets the call up as a starting half

 

[Pezz70]

Not in top 30

 

[macnaz]

Not in top 30

You would think with the amount of injuries we could get some sort of NRL clearance to move him into the 30.?

 

[The Rosco]

We ain't the bunnies.

Just looked at the team list he is named on the 10 man interchange bench, must be top 30,list on tigers site must need updating. Imagine him and cheese two nuggets cracking each other all day

Coach facing axe as stunning Tigers-Bulldogs player swap ‘conspiracy’ grows​

The Wests Tigers have been urged to move on from halfback Luke Brooks and it appears that could happen in the form of a stunning player swap with a rival team.

That is according to The Daily Telegraph’sPaul Kent, who has reported that the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are interested in the 27-year-old’s services.

In return, the Tigers would receive halfback Kyle Flanagan, who is currently playing in reserve grade with no clear NRL comeback in sight at Belmore.

But that is not all.

Kent wrote that the Bulldogs’ interest in Brooks is “part of a bigger conspiracy”.

Kent adds that there is a “right bower” to this deal — that Kyle’s father Shane would also arrive at the Tigers to replace Michael Maguire as coach.

 

[The Rosco]

I renig, cheat then fold.
I dont wanna play euchre with those 2.

As a neutral it would be an interesting swap. Brooks and Burton wouldn't work imo. I think Flanno jnr could be a good player, he must have pissed in Tbaz's cornflakes.

If the reported contracts are somewhere near accurate, I'd be offering up Brooks for Flanno only if they tossed in Avarillo.

Laurie
Ken
Avarillo
Jet
Nofo
Douhi
Flanno
Hastings
Tuilagi
Papali'i
Stef
Api
Twal

Has the bones of a competitive side.

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

This sounds like a load of crap. They had the opportunity to offload Brooks to Newcastle in the off season and didn't take it. They had all the information they needed to know about Brooks then. If this happens the entire management needs to go.

In my opinion I just want him gone. I don't need anything in return from Canterbury. Just take him away. Give madden the rest of the season to see what he can do

 

[stryker]

A swap for Kyle Flanagan puts us in a worse position.
A swap for that pommy prop is a different story.

It is from the Telegraph, so it’s probably just a guess and isn’t Flanno senior on the Fox shows with the author?

 

[Fordy20]

Quite frankly, I think it’s bullshit. Just media muppets getting high off the smell of their own farts.

Don't care. We will still get the spoon this year, maybe next year as well. Finishing 9th is a few years away yet.
