congrats to WT and coach sheens

[Borat.]

Home Semi sweeeeeet

 

[andrew9148]

Yes. and now they have plenty of time to sort out where it is. With Roosters going sh*te today, they might drop down the ladder even further which might mean it could be Tigers v Roosters - No SFS? Leichhardt?

 

[macnaz]

Please be anywhere but SFS.. Telstra maybe? Cause i doubt they will wanna do LO or Cambo because of gate takings.

 

[Borat.]

Campbelltown is out due to reno's or something....

 

[Marshall_magic]

Also we have accumulated more points this season than any other season since the merger (including 05 when we won the comp), 3 wins of equalling our club record for most wins in a season (18 in 2005).

 

[tigers_are_premiers]

Yeahhhh baby......go the tigers......

 

[living the dream]

They need to now, put in place measures to play our home semi at one of our traditional home grounds LO.Who cares if they would get another 20,000 at the SFS.Boisterous home crowd 1 or 2 hometown penalities happens everywhere we will need that advantage.A home semi should be just that a true home semi.Thought they played ok today were never in danger at any stage of losing it imo.

 

[andrew9148]

I agree re LO. They could do a deal with Wests that next home final is at campbelltown or something like that. Thats fair i reckon.

On other matters, I f**king hope Souths beat Saints and Bris beat Raiders (but not by too much)

 

[westie]

Are you guys serious? There's literally hundreds of thousands of dollars up for grabs if we play at ANZ or SFS.

Never mind the mad grab for tickets would mean some big fans would miss out on seeing their team play. No one should have to miss out.

With regards to home advantage... I'm of the opinion that 40,000 fans would do a better job than 20,000.

 

[Borat.]

Screw the money it should be played at L/O if you don't wanna miss out become a member- costs $20 a month to direct debit it...

The only way we should play at the SFS is if we play a QLD or NZ side and the NRL kick in $500k....even then I would prefer a L/O game.....

 

[hybrid_tiger]

There is no way we can possibly play the Roosters at the SFS as our home game, surely?

I'm all for playing at SFS as long as its not Easts we are playing.

 

[LatK7]

Congrats to the Tigers for a doing so well this season!

 

[Die-Hard p/t Jet Fan]

I was watching the game with my son and he came up with the nickname Defita for Fifita, not bad for a 7 year old!

 

[Bricey]

IMO we will play manly in the 2 V 7 game

roosters should beat cowboys
warriors should beat eels...

dogs do use a favour against an out of sorts panthers and even a close loss is enough to wrap up 2nd.

Panthers have won just 2 of the last 7 and Dogs farewell to Pattern and Kimmorley

 

[TroopyF]

Yes, a huge congrats the the Club.
I've had my doubts last couple of weeks but yesterday made me feel a lot more comfortable of our chances in the semis.
Keep up the good work.

 

[Magpies Forever]

Well done guys- good effort inc coaching and conditioning staff.

Here's hoping we can get through next w/end without any further injury so we can concentrate on finals preparation and team plays.

Go Weststigers

 

[madunit]

I hope we can do very well in these finals, but I'm a bit wary of Manly.

We can only hope Stewart and Lyon get 2 weeks each minimum, although I doubt Lyon will get anything at all, pretty pointless charge if you ask me.

 

[Mader45]

The game is nearly certainly going to be at the SFS. And we are definitely 2nd or 3rd, so we are playing on the Saturday.

What WT should be doing is organizing to have tickets go on sale right NOW!

Use the money the NRL will offer them to play there to discount the price of the tickets to make them around $15-20 each.

Market and advertise the $hit out of the tix being on sale now before our opponent is revealed and that way the West Tigers can have 40,000 fans filling a massive staidum with orange and black and the other team will have no one there.

It's our best option to make it a 'home' final.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

If Penrith win tonight and we lose big (more than 18) on Friday & Penrith win next weekend, we finish 4th. If Penrith lose tonight however, we can't finish lower than third so I'm all for your plan tomorrow mate!

Manly are hanging on by a fingernail currently.....weakest of the lot imo
