[This Year?]

Good to get them out of the way early I guess. I hope the Tigers win though because even though they have struggled for a decade, they have a rich history and are much, much more likeable than the Storm.

 

[Speedy Gonzales]

Funny how Tamou being suspended actually helps us

 

[Someone2]

Tigpies lucky Melbourne are missing half their squad should keep the margin to around 20 points

Wests actually have more of their starting 13 missing then Melbourne

It’ll be all about Melbourne missing their key players though

Doueihi, Talau, Liddle, Tamou, Blore and possibly AJ would all start if fit

 

[GongPanther]

Tigers with a boilover 20-12 win.

 

[Valheru]

Melbourne don't lose in round 1

 

[The Man Shake]

It won't be a blowout but Melbourne will still win by 10.

 

[GongPanther]

Melbourne don't lose in round 1

Here is another boilover. Storm to miss the top 4.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Not seeing the optimism for the Tigers personally. This is the only game of the round that has the potential to get real ugly.

 

[Vic Mackey]

So the ‘depleted Storm’ are missing a grand total of 2 players lol. They’ll win and likely do it well. The difference in our attacking structure from the last couple of years was evident in the trials, mainly that we actually had some. I’ll be interested to see how it grows over the year. Storm by 22

 

[JamesRustle]

Thankfully Grace Tame and Brittany Higgins wont be watching this. Storm by 48-6. Paps with a trick.

Just checked in to see if rhyno still has that warm feeling in his groinal region for the glorious Weststigers.
HE DIDN'T LET ANYONE DOWN.
I don't like the storms, but that won't stop them from probably doing a number on the hapless WT.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Won’t be as bad as last time we played these merkins

 

[txta2]

Bend over Tigers

 

[Pound Cake]

Tigers will wanna belt someone after being flogged by Madge all preseason

 

[Fangs]

'The Wests Tigers are always in the f**king game!'

Let us see if that is true.

 

[The Rosco]

'The Wests Tigers are always in the f**king game!'

Let us see if that is true.

"Phil Gould has a 5 year plan"
Let's see if that's true.
It's only words.
And words are all they have.
To take your heart away.

 

[Sans Souci Saint]

Luke Brooks is the ultimate albatross.

I love it.
