How many games is it going to take for Tim to realise that Brooks and Doogie are not the answer?

Brooks being caught with the ball…

Panic footy with 15 to go and a man up, can’t force the overlap.

SOS Bateman and Wakeham.

Ffs Pull the trigger Tim.

Hey all, just getting back home.

Tough game for the Knights to get the win considering, some of it HIA stuff, injuries, some of it self inflicted but showed some heart which has been sorely lacking over past seasons.

Hard luck to you guys, I thought you guys got some good opportunities but just didn't have that little bit of polish to finish the chances off.

I honestly expected Klemmer to be a bit more fiery and involved today but I hardly noticed him.

For mine Brooks isn't the answer, just doesn't take control enough and make a big enough stamp on the game to be the 7 you need.

JSaf certainly a send off. Hastings lucky not to be binned for his high shot. I did think that try from the Tigers was a double textbook double movement but it was difficult with the momentum.

Good luck with the rest of the season, West Tigers fans deserve a good season.

I think I'm not gonna bother watching NRL until I hear Tigers are competitive again
I think that is the best plan when it comes to looking after our mental health.
I will check the scores and only watch if they win.
Bateman should be rested for the rest of the year seeing our season is over.
Just 2 rounds to take us to the bottom of the ladder. Awesome.

Not gonna happen.
The club thinks Luke was a standout today.
Little f**k couldn’t get the job done against a severely weakened team once again

You should be proud of that win. You’ll be missing a few for next week though…
Certainly a double movement. Only way we could score.
Cheers.

He wasted time pretending to be injured, then wasted time in the scuffle…clock still running…just dumb.

The messed up play the ball looked like it could of been due to cramp but the timewasting scuffle due to getting sledged was as amateurish as it gets...braindead

Neither Doogie nor Brooks will be replaced because neither Tim or management can admit that they simply don’t understand what it takes to be successful.

This is what happens when you have an unaccountable board, who are held there by the worst example of gerrymander in NRL history.

This is what happens when you abandon process for mateship.

The sponsors know the only one telling the truth was Western Suburbs.

Tim’s got 2 games to fix this rubbish. That’s the amount of time he gave himself a few weeks ago.

He can start his recovery by going against his judgment, because his judgment at the moment is utter garbage.

And the show gets worse with Muppet Benji until eternity.

Ffs we need to be privatised. I’d take Barbie dolls inc at the moment.

Action figure of steff in his double movement campervan.

it’s been bad, but now when I wear the jersey, people are grabbing their children and picking up the dog and crossing the road.

we'll be thrashed by the bye as well. In classic tigers form we'll probably find a miracle win somewhere along the line and consider it a massive achievement like we did last year
Lol yeah this is our next 11 rounds;
Dogs Belmore
Storm AAMI Park
Broncs Suncorp
Parra Accor
BYE 1
Manly Campbelltown
Penrith Bathurst
Dragons Suncorp
Rabbits Accor
Cowboys Leichhardt
BYE 2

My prediction, we go into round 14 on 8 competition points with only 2 wins and 2 byes. f**k knows where those two wins come from though…I’m hoping for some upsets.
