    Season 2025

    Luai really is our only sliver of hope of avoiding another spoon. He is a class player and I think this is the first time this club has signed a player of his calibre in a key position. It will take a monumental effort for him to turn this team around though.

    Match Discussion: Round 23 vs Newcastle @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    The most depressing part is that in 3 years when the youngsters are all established first graders they'll probably all be playing elsewhere.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Great, another team we get to lose to.

    Season 2024

    We could be in for a blood bath that final game. We have conceded 50 five times in the final round since 2014, and having the week off in Round 26, I'd imagine the players will have well and truly clocked off.

    Match Discussion: Round 22 vs North Qld @ Leichhardt Oval, Lilyfield / Wanngal

    The only other player the judiciary deemed bad enough to receive a Grade 3 Careless High Tackle charge this year is Dom Young who KO'd his opponent.

    Match Discussion: Round 22 vs North Qld @ Leichhardt Oval, Lilyfield / Wanngal

    No way was Olam a send off, however it would be hard to argue against a sinbin and given our floodgates opened for the 10 minutes after the tackle, I don't think we can blame it for the result last night. I know with such a young team you're going to get a bit of inconsistency, however we are...

    2024 R22 Thu - Wests Tigers 30-48 North Qld @ Leichhardt

    A purge of the front office and first grade team. Promote the SG Ball side to first grade and give them Order 227.

    2024 R22 Thu - Wests Tigers 30-48 North Qld @ Leichhardt

    Nope. See Taylan May on Walsh earlier this year.

    Aust v India Test Series 24/25 Revenge or India three peat ?

    We are also giving India practice games at the WACA and MCG. Seems very generous considering the warm up games we get in return.

    Match Discussion: Round 21 vs Warriors @ Go Media Stadium, Penrose / Aotearoa

    We seem to usually reserve our worst performances for the Warriors and I expect this Friday to be no exception.

    We are certainly always committed to "buy high" and "sell low".

    Stefano Utoikamanu

    Still can't work out why we let Blore go. He did all the right things in terms of attitude/effort but just never seemed to get an extended run with Sheens/Benji. No surprise he is excelling in Melbourne. Stefano is the opposite. Shit attitude and goes missing every second week, yet has been...

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs South Sydney @ Industree Group Stadium, Gosford / Darkinjung

    And would have only got a fine for the same charge if playing Origin. There must be no risk of injury in rep games.

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs South Sydney @ Industree Group Stadium, Gosford / Darkinjung

    That will probably be the end of Sezers tigers career. I am sure the NRL will give him a suspension about twice as long as Dom Young or Suaalii for taking opposition's heads off.

    2024 R20 Sat - South Sydney 42-28 Wests Tigers @ Industree Group

    He was definitely in pain until the penalty was blown.

    2024 R20 Sat - South Sydney 42-28 Wests Tigers @ Industree Group

    If you stop play for an "injury" you should go off too. No ifs or buts.

    2024 Origin III - Wed 17 Jul - QLD 4-14 NSW @ Suncorp

    Cleary will do well to play another origin. Luai's performance last night shows who really runs the show at Penrith and they will struggle to make the 8 without him and JFH next year.

    2024 Match Review & Judiciary charges

    I think club suspensions should be served for club games only, however I don't think you can keep rep suspensions to rep games only. Otherwise you get retiring players grubbing it up in game 3 of origin with no repercussions. Or one game wonders (Suaalii) getting away without punishment.

    2024 Match Review & Judiciary charges

    It is a ludicrous charge, however if the NRL are adamant that we are going to charge players for contact with the ref, then how is it not a penalty onfield?

    Season 2024

    After conceding 22 points a game for the first 10 games, we have now let in 270 in the last 7 (42, 56, 10, 24, 40, 40, 58). Well on track to concede 700+ points for the season. Benji needs to go and bring in someone with the experience required to turn this disaster around for next season...
