We and the media crap on about what is the clubs culture and identify.. we look back to our joint clubs and what they stood for .. Raudonikis ,Pearce , Roach, Donnelly etc .. those that gave 100% to the club on and off the field ..
But then in a heartbeat we excuse players that just piss on our identify !!
We either want to have an historical identity as a club OR just carry on degrading into a meaningless group of money grabbers... We cant have it both ways if we want to be a club of pride and loyalty!. we are one or the other .
Yea you 2 are right. The decisions from WT since forever gives us all a warm feeling.All the players have to do is try harder…hahaha
Pascoe Fans!!

Just rubbish. This narrative is just rubbish.

So sad. Daine is 100% a West Tiger.

These sort of stories are just garbage, should be lining waste paper bins.

He’s a great kid, West Tigers should be proud to have him on board.

He Will be even better in 2022. Good player, good kid.

Yeah exactly, it is literally a senior player saying "oi mate, totally get why you are excited but in future I wouldn't wear any other team jersey's while your under contract. Might annoy a sponsor". That's it. Case closed

I should also say I was at Lidcombe Oval prior to lockdown to watch our NSW Cup side and Daine was there. I didn’t see any other member of your NRL squad there that day, I understand perhaps he had mates playing for our NSW Cup side but it was obvious to me he was there to support the West’s Magpies.

My initial anger was tempered when I reflected on the fact that I felt he had a bit of a go this year.

In those early matches, he was often last man standing when all around him fell.

He gave 100% and was smashed to pieces by our ineffective forward defenders failing to stop rampaging attack.

He broke his leg for the club and that should account for something. It’s pretty long, painful and the recovery is tough on the headspace.

I think he needs to be sat down and taught a few lessons about the club as @macnaz may warrant, at least an meaningful apology extracted, but I’m not quite right with a knee jerk sacking for high treason.

As I said, we should try to exploit his madness for our own benefit. Use his youth and inexperience to our advantage.

Huh ?...I didn't think i'd ever read anything as perplexing as the instruction manual for my old Yongkong VCR but you've blown that out of the water ...animal...mineral or vegetable?
Yeah I just realised that Daine was featured in my avatar on lu, and I have removed him for a period as a punishment for his grand final frolic.

A nod to Dallas and Grant.

As a special treat this morning I’m going to post up a puzzle of one of our secret signings I’ve been blathering on about and some vague clues. It will only go up for about 15 minutes.

He's 22 years old, I simply believe he did not think for a second that someone would 'post' his picture. I bet he hasn't got a marketing degree and know the importance of marketing etc at 22 years of age.

He messed up, he knows it now.

I thought straight away this comes back to the club and his induction at the club, these young guys surely must have had on day 1 (not a training session) a class room session re club history (both clubs), why they merged, where the club is heading, their role, marketing the brand, their role in that, about only be seen in club colours in public, never bringing the clubs name into disrepute etc etc.
If the club did and does all that and more, Laurie stuffed up, 1st warning for him.

I like reading your posts Silverdale but lay off the weed for a bit. I've been in your situation many times, just give it a break for a week or two then you'll be sweet
Don’t blame me, blame the likes of @stryker and his fellow boss types who expect employees to keep working to 10.00pm.

No doubt The dazzler got the secret clues early this morning, took a snapshot and is applying his detective skills.
