    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Wouldn't hurt them to be rid of him. He looks very unfit and disinterested at the moment. Combine that with an ageing spine consisting of Walker & Cook who won't be getting any quicker or better and they're on a hiding to nothing.

    Wests Tigers Coaches 2024

    I see Robbie moving into the front office at some point. I feel his stint in the coaching ranks is to get a managerial look at how the football department runs. Will be useful if he has a role as CFO/CEO/GM of footy.

    Luke Brooks

    That's to be expected, he is a reserve grade quality half.

    I'm not ready to have my heart broken again.

    Streaming Finds

    The Japanese investigated the possibility of land invasion of Australia in WW2, they believed that even if they made a successful landing it was going to be a logistical nightmare keeping their troops supplied which is why they opted for trying to control the water to blockade us. That is the...

    Honestly though who are the dumb merkins in that scenario, the pisswreck for suggesting it, or the dickheads that actually acted on it?

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I'm not advocating for him to walk now, if he comes good this year I'm more than happy for the club to talk turkey with him. If he however continues to fall away I won't be upset if the club decide to let him go. If he has designs on being a club captain he needs to lead by example.

    He'll need to learn to use his shoulders in defence first. Can make up for his lack of lateral movement defending in the middle, but he'll need to be able to tag players on his own one on one. Can't hide a turnstile in the middle.

    To be quite honest if he doesn't kick on he can move on for mine. Can't get stuck in the same cycle as we did with Brooks waiting for a decade for players to finally kick on because they're waiting for the right set of circumstances. Good players will create the circumstances not wait for them.

    His form last year doesn't warrant a call up. Hopefully it's a kick up the arse for him.

    LOL at the Broncos sulking about conflicts of interest when those merkins have a third party consortium at pinkys length for years ensuring they get any player they wanted.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Haha no worries, I wasn't picking you apart, just noticed Twal was missing and I know Camroux has bounced between us and Newcastle. Twal to be fair yeah his running game isn't strong and he'll never be that bullocking front rower you can depend on to crash over the line, but he does get through...

    Richo's son is a player manager. Tigers have signed Faataape who is managed by him. We wouldn't be signing him if Benji didn't want him, and the kid is quite good.

    Season 2024

    It will be Fainu or Sullivan. There's a scarcity of decent halves so hopefully whomever we let go of doesn't come at cost to the club.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Yeah it has been a pretty productive off-season off the field. None of it means shit unless the scoreboard reads the right way though.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Mason might be a smokey for back up fullback. Zane Camroux went back to Newcastle didn't he? You're missing Twal from your line up there too unless you're assuming he will be moved on (didn't he just resign for another three years?) AD is gone after this year, the club will not keep him on...

    Jesus it would be hilarious if he finds himself in England. That'll be a real kick in the dick for the egotistical little prick.
  18. The Charlatan

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Yeah the club appears to be making all the right moves but unless it translates to wins this year it's all moot. In saying that, it appears that Benji understands that since he got his way and he has unfettered authority to run the team they way he wants the results will fall solely on him so...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Yep, and Benji obviously agrees. I am glad we had extended him. He was unfortunate to suffer the injury he did last year, plus he also is capable at fullback too if Bula goes down and we need someone to shift there in a pinch.

    He was definitely being paid like an Origin winger. And instead of taking responsibility for his shortcomings he'd blame teammates on Twitter and complain about training.
