    Power of my Avatar

    Some of the old boys on this forum may remember that my Avatar has special powers. For those who don't - every time I change my avatar the player/coach leaves the club. It gives me goosebumps every time because it just keeps happening. Benji, Robbie, Ben Murdoch Masila, Simona, Jason Taylor...

    Biting the bullet

    I hate to say this.. I really do. I don't see us making the 8 this year, or next year for that matter. For a long time WT was plagued by a dysfunctional head office, poor coaching decisions, shit house culture and crippling injuries. We had young talent coming out our arses, but with such a...

    NRL need to get their shit together

    This doesn't have anything to do with COVID. This is just a rant because I'm bored. If I ever had any criticism of the NRL it would have to be the ridiculous ineptitude of the NRL in monitoring salary cap rorting and the whinging from players about moving between clubs. I feel like there is an...

    Why don't established First Graders want to play for Tigers?

    I think this question is driving us all a bit crazy. It seems that solid first graders, all the way up to marquee players simply don't want to play for Tigers, and once our juniors establish themselves as NRL quality they leave at the first opportunity. I simply cannot find a reason why: 1...

    Trade Josh Reynolds for Ash Taylor

    Straight swap: Titans pay Ash Taylor's Salary, we continue paying Reynolds. They would need to pay a good 500-600k of Taylor's salary if he went anywhere else, and they aren't going to find a decent half for $500k. Reynolds will bring a positive attitude to the club culture (same way he brought...

    I hope we have learnt our lesson

    Since 2012 it seems like the Wests Tigers have always been "building something special". We have all heard the "boast the best young talent", "future looks bright", "can play some entertaining football" quotes enough times to make us sick of hearing it. Woods leaving the Tigers, and potentially...

    If we lost Moses

    Everyone has probably seen the articles that have started floating around that Moses could be leaving. Not hugely surprising, he only just had his breakout year in 2016 so if he is getting big offers he will be attracted towards it. I have my own feelings towards the matter if he leaves. We...

    Sironen off to Manly?

    Tigers back-rower Curtis Sironen is reportedly considering a shock switch to Manly following the departure of Jamie Buhrer. Sironen only just re-signed with the joint venture club but the classy 23-year-old has been in secret talks with the Northern Beaches outfit. He is believed to be on the...

    Hypothetical 2017

    Couldn't resist starting one of these. Below is my team for 2017 with the following hypothetical scenario (just for fun): - Robbie leaves for Bunnies - ET re-signs - We are able to sign any two players reasonably priced players that are currently off contract for 2017 My starting 17: 1...

    The Hooker dilemma

    I think it's obvious to everyone that we have a dilemma when it comes to the hooking role. Despite everything that has been going on I have long been a fan of Farah and still think that he should be in the team, at least coming off the bench to add some spark. On the other hand, we have won 3 in...

    Which half would you choose?

    Let's pretend that Brooks or Moses decide to leave. The obvious thing to do would be to sign an experienced half (likely we will sign a park footy player but meh), but the question is, who would you sign to partner the half that stays and why? My choice was Peter Wallace: - Could sign him on...

    Farah poised to be Wests Tigers new halfback

    I seriously lol'd at how much of a troll this reporter is. I know its click baiting but it's just too funny not to feed this troll http://www.theroar.com.au/2015/12/29/farah-poised-to-be-wests-tigers-new-halfback/ Wests Tiger Robbie Farah has gone from being the club’s 900k captain and...

    Taylorball 2016

    With Taupau leaving and Matt Ballin likely to be signed, it's obvious that Taylor is making a huge power play to continue his push to remove Farah from the club. I'll admit that I have not been happy about all this. I always think I have reached my limit with this club but each year my limits...

    Your team for 2016

    Can't believe we haven't started one of these threads yet (probably because we have no idea who will be here and who won't). Assuming Robbie, Ava and Halutau stay: 1. Tedesco 2. Nofo 3. Naiqama 4. Simona 5. Hunt 6. Moses 7. Brooks 8. Woods 9. Farah (80 mins playing his natural game)...

    If I were Farah

    I would stay at the Tigers and play state cup. I would put in twice the mammoth effort usually shown and absolutely dominate the competition. I would tear Origin apart. I would teach those struggling to make FG. I would love winning each week and staying out of the usual bs. Why do this f**k...

    Let's be constructive

    I'm as pissed off about our current situation as anyone. Usually this time each year I vow to stop supporting the Tigers and break a few doors...we all go through this. We all know that this is complete bullshit. I'll be supporting Tigers as long as the club exists and I can't change that even...

    Hey guys, does anyone know when Jamie Lyons will be back?

    Blooding juniors

    I'm merely an armchair critic at best but I'm trying to understand our approach to blooding juniors I think its fantastic that we are giving them game time to get experience under their belt. We really do have a great crop of juniors that many teams would love to have. However, when you look...

    Tupau throat slit gesture

    I don't care what the media says, it was 100% badass. I didn't think Tupau could get any cooler but there you go. People will try to whinge that its a bad look for the game...oh so the Hakka is a bad look too then? You do realise the Hakka is a f**king war dance? Badassery on every level...

    NRL Full Match Replays - Quality Issues

    Not sure if I have posted this in the correct forum but I just had a question regarding NRL Full Match Replays from the NRL.com site. Every time I watch a video the quality starts off brilliant, then becomes extremely pixelated, then jumps back and forth every couple of minutes. Does anyone...
