    Spineless

    It all comes down to the cattle you have at your disposal. Even Bellyache would struggle at our club. Uncle Wayne struggled to attract players to go to the Dolphins so what hope do we have. Our only hope is the pathways road and that will take time and is a very risky road to travel. Iam...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Love our recruitment so far and our pack on paper is looking very strong. Our backline still looks bottom four standard but who knows, behind a quality pack they might surprise. One thing we still lack is a young big athletic player on the edge. Most of the better clubs have one, tall big fast...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Yep I heard that Gardiner has been told he is not required next year. He is the guy who should be our head coach and we show him the door madness. Cleary will pounce quickly to replace Webster or possibly Ciraldo

    Justice for the Wests Tigers

    Some talk that the audio is now with the commission and is looking a tad ugly for the NRL. Like everything else that has a bad smell for the NRL it will be swept under the rug or a deal will be struck

    2022 R15 Sat - Parramatta 26-16 Sydney @ CommBank

    Uncle Nick will pull the brown paper bags out and lure a few so called development players to Bondi. Of course his idea of a development player is a player who has only played 20 SOO games. Anyway Parra on that form could push Penrith, but you never know what they are going to produce next game

    News Michael Maguire sacked by Wests Tigers

    Who ever gets the gig will be in a lot better position than most of his predecessors. The Tigers cap is in a really good position, the clubs bottom line is much stronger than most clubs and they have a very strong pathway system up and running. The new coach will not start with all the obstacles...

    If not Madge, then who?

    Initially I had both feet planted in Madge's camp. I thought this year we have shown some real improvement although it did not reflect on the points table. He also had a injury toll from hell to contend with and more than his fair share of crap calls. The playing group seemed to be behind 100%...

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Manly @ 4 Pines Park, Brookvale

    First half the ref was as bad as I have seen in a long time. With the players we lost during the game coupled with those already injured it was a very good effort

    2022 R2 Fri - St Geo Illa 16-20 Penrith @ Netstrata Jubilee

    The wrestle is back, Penrith have taken it to a new level. They slowed the Dragons play the ball down to snails pace and the ref did not do a thing. As usual nothing will be done

    Every Club's Real Cap Worth

    Bottom line, some teams are forced to pay a premium to attract players so there cap has less buying power than the better sides. This can be for geographical reason or can be perceived success or lack of success of a club. For example a team like the Tigers are probably having to pay 30% more...

    Season ‘22

    I would play Maden at 14, and have either Brooks or Hastings play nine when Simkins needs a break. Not sold on The Peach at D/H

    So, where are we going to finish in ‘22?

    15th would be a good effort given our bog average roster and carry over injuries from last season. Most of our really good juniors are one or two seasons away from a NRL start and our two quality signings are still a year away. Covid could be the big factor that levels out the comp. Getting 17...

    2023-2028 next tv deal discussion

    Without doubt nines NRL coverage is at the bottom of the pile when it comes to sport coverage in OZ. The thought of Johns and Gould for another five years would be up there with Scotty winning the next elections. Peter V with his rule changes and now Tv rights is trying his hardest to kill the...

    Season ‘22

    With our roster unlikely to change much between now and March it’s very hard to be optimistic about climbing the ladder. I think the club is very lucky they have got a couple of top notch signings for 23 to keep the punters interested. Anyway all I want in 22 is a team that is still in the...

    What a crock of sh*t

    If our mob serve up the same rubbish in 2022 as this season It will not matter where they play….because Iam not going.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Unless the team are diabolical in 2022 Madge will be safe. Sheens and the board know the present roster is way short of a top eight squad. They want to see improvement and effort. Not that you can believe a word you read or hear, but there seems to be a good vibe around the squad and that’s...

    Random Tigers articles from the media

    Sheens was hired to oversee a lot of things, but getting the media under control would have been one of the first things on a big list. So far so good, he doesn’t take any crap from them and he makes himself available to them. Of course the real test is once the season starts and we are on...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    All the talk I am hearing in the last 24hours is Cotric is going back to the Raiders. Of course things are changing directions all the time, but I think we have gone from odds on to about 100 to one. Not the end end of the world but would have been a handy signing.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Vic I think the Chooks would have won the comp this year if they had some luck from the Injury god. Not that I am complaining, always like so see the Chooks in a hole. 2022 will be a interesting year, a lot of the bottom teams have built up and the top teams Have dropped a tad. Sharks could be a...

    Squad 2022

    Defence is our Achilles heel, and both the above players will help in that department. We can’t get anywhere near the eight without massive improvements in defence. I do worry a tad that the squad lacks a game breaker that you need in Peter V football, but maybe after last year they may pull...
