    Season 2024

    We did get lucky with Bula, Pole and Tupou. Tupou was looking pretty tired by the end of the season too. Definitely agree those other blokes need more time in the lower grades. Personally, I don't see the hype around Matamua that others do and Feledy might need a couple of years in reggies. I...

    Random Tigers articles from the media

    Typical. The club wouldn’t have needed a top up from it’s owners Wests Ashfield if the board hadn’t brought back Sheens in the first place. I find it farcical that the Wests Ashfield directors release this article, threatening that they could withdraw funding if they don’t get to continue to...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Definitely agree signing Papenhuyzen would be a backwards step. I reckon once Staines is re-signed, our recruitment is done for the year and even if he isn’t re-resigned, Nofa played a fair bit of fullback in juniors, so he could should be able to slot in if Bula is injured. For centre, we’ve...

    Random Tigers articles from the media

    Who knows? I would have loved to see the contents of that email. As much as I rag on the board, sook about Sheens and lament our lack of success over the years, Coates has got a point. It's much more interesting being a fan of this club than some boring team like the Storm.

    Random Tigers articles from the media

    There was a similar article posted to the DT. I quoted the whole thing including the stuff on Coates here: https://forums.leagueunlimited.com/threads/season-2024.490251/page-6#post-15966679

    Season 2024

    Amen! If this review ends with implementing a Parramatta style governance model and puts an end to Wests Ashfield appointing directors, it will be the greatest thing to happen to the club since winning the GF in 2005. I do wonder if that’s why Andreacchio wanted Lee to step down. He might be...

    2 ex WT players that would transform the Wests Tigers into a top 8 side

    Mat Head and Chris Lawrence. A proven general to lead us around the park and a superstar speed demon to be the strike centre the club is crying out for.

    End of thread.

    Season 2024

    You might be betting on the wrong horse, TSP. According to the Terrorgraph, it's Tony Andreacchio and Rick Wayde on the chopping block: Email revelation rocks Tigers

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I’d love to see that. News Corp are such a pack of merkins. The game makes them so much money, but they are constantly shitting all over it.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I reckon we both agree with re-signing Twal and Seyfarth. What I don’t agree with is the idea that re-signing these blokes is doing the club doing them some kind of favour, especially not one that implies some extra obligation on their part. The club isn’t taking some a risk here, both have...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I don't agree. Twal has always put in and well deserves this contract. Seyfarth has only been extended to 2015 and is unlikely wouldn't be on much anyway, so it's not like the club is taking some huge gamble here.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    My thoughts exactly, on single every point. Like button playing silly buggers again.

    Season 2024

    You give the board too much credit. Wests Tigers board is made up of appointees from the board of a pokie den. Not only do these appointees elect the chair, they appoint the independent directors as well. For mine, I don't think they give a shit about how the football performs as long as the...

    Season 2023

    We lost seven matches by six points or less this season, including the rematch against the Dragons. If we had won all of them, we would have finished tenth on 30 points behind Souths and the Cowboys, but ahead of Canberra and Parra who both would have finished on 28 points.

    Hastings

    True. Together, Hastings and Brooks might not have got us into the eight, but we sure as hell wouldn't have got the spoon and anyone who thinks different is absolutely kidding themselves.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Agreed. Bringing back Sheens was bad enough, but now it’s pretty clear that this jobs for the boys bullshit will continue ad nauseam unless the NRL takes action. They should withdraw the licence and rights to the brand from Wests Tigers Pty Ltd unless Parramatta style governance reforms are...

    Season 2024

    What do you make of Kaeo Weekes? Roughly the same age as Savage. Off contract. Probably would prefer to be second choice fullback rather than fourth like he would be if he re-signed with Manly

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Galvin was rumoured to have had his nose out of joint since we signed Latu and Sullivan.
