MON has been here much longer and we’ve finished above the Tigers every. single. year. Even in our disastrous 2024 season.

We also got a new CoE in that time, though I’m sure that sort of investment is well above the GM’s pay grade. That’s within the remit of the CEO and board.

Signing new players is easy when your team shits the bed. We did it after 2018 and again this year. It’s easy because there’s no pressure to keep the ‘team’ together. You can just blow it all up and start again, like Richardson and MON have done.

Hopefully not the last of your posts that end up in the swamp... :clown_face:

Bang!

You'd be crazy to argue with those stats but maybe Tiger5150 is not a Van Halen fan after all and really is certifiably insane?

Didn't he join as interim CEO at the end of 23? So basically been around for 2 years or 24 months.

Laui Turuva had achieved what they wanted with the riff and were after a pay day not hard to throw money at them..

May was let go by the Roosters another hard job I guess to get his signature..

KPP didn't want to stay at the Knights and no other club was going to offer him dumb money like the tigers... Latu was treated Poorly at Manly and left for a chance good signing but was it Richo signing..


Got band aid upgrades at 2 of their 4 home grounds instead of just looking for the future and using it at Ctown..

Now he has left let's see all the scandals come out there are already 2.

But now the Tigers are singing the Sea Eagles reject ..

You have never had more than two in the NRL injured list until this week when you’ve got three.
Really?

Did Luai, Taylan May, Luke Laulilli, Tino Tavana play last week?
Did Luai, Taylan May, Jarel Skelton play round 5?
Did Luai, Taylan May, Starford Toa, Jarel Skelton play Round 4?

Depth is fine if you can draw on it incrementally, like this. It’s having all the injuries at once that is impossible to cover with backups.
I wont use the fact that we have already used 22 players this year as an excuse to be trailing Penrith on f/a.

You must be positively salivating, champing at the bit even as you take on the 10th placed Broncos, 15th placed Raiders, 7th placed Sharks and 13th placed Scum then. What an easy run you have ahead of you!
Mate Ill enjoy watching my team do their best against whoever they play against each week. I dont need to rationalise about hard or easy draws.

No but if you’d played harder opponents I’m sure you would.

Good Lord, this April premiership has gone to your head you're now comparing your f/a with the Panthers who've played 5 of their opening 6 games against last year's top 8, two against last year's grand finalists?

You struggled to beat us ffs! You won because Moses couldn't convert and the ref hates us.

Seriously, you should take up vodka, it'll give you a realistic perspective on life in the morning after the delusions of the night before.

Well you have already given up on Parra making it. Are all Parra fans that soft?
Who cares what the rest of them are like?

Last year when you were crowing about being ahead of us, and the year before when you were crowing about beating us on Easter, I had hope of better players coming back from injury. This year we have had multiple injures in the same positions, including two middles and an outside back for the season.
