You keep telling yourself that each night when you are trying to go to sleep at 3am with the room spinning Pat. 3 of our 5 games were against top 4 teams THIS YEAR.

Why would I "predict" anything to please you? Im not a performing monkey at your whim. Its a football team. They will turn up each week and have a crack and the result will be the result. One thing I can predict with 100% certainty is that with this culture at the Tigers, I can predict with absolute certainty that they will turn up and have a crack, like they have all year so far and I am very happy and excited about the way my team is performing on and off the field. Couldnt be more proud.

How are you going Pat?

The future's uncertain and the end is always near, other than that, I am well, thank you.

I thought he meant fewest injuries. The Tigers are up there with the Raiders, Chooks and Panthers for being kissed on the dick by the injury gods:

Keep crying a river about Parra's injuries...Parra have used 25 players in 6 games and Tigers have already used 22 players in only 5 games. Tigers won their last 3 games (two against top 4 teams) without their highest paid player Luai, both first choice centres May & Toa, Latu Fainu for the first 3 games, firts choice winger missed 3 games.....

Maybe you guys might need to look at your training staff. a lot of soft tissue injuries in that list. maybe the good clubs pay for better training staff?

Do we just list all the players to re-sign without any talk of bidding wars? How would any of us know how much these guys sign for or the size of the offers they declined. It's fairy tales rugby league fans tell themselves and we know you believe in fairy tales. Apparently one bloke took a 50% haircut to stay at Manly!

I didnt ask the question big guy.

The rest is true, "Tigers won their last 3 games (two against top 4 teams) " that isn't.

You can't claim the top 4 teams in the ladder in the opening 6 rounds as scalps, ffs, you can only compare to last year's ladder.

For example, one of your top 4 scalps, the 4th placed Girlz is currently getting a touch up by the 10th placed and at the time you beat Girls, last placed, Manly.

I just did. Form in the last month counts for a lot more than form 9 months ago. Ask Craig Bellamy

I didnt include the Cowboys. The two teams I mentioned (Warriors and Newcastle) were in the top 4 when we played them

You have never had more than two in the NRL injured list until this week when you’ve got three. Depth is fine if you can draw on it incrementally, like this. It’s having all the injuries at once that is impossible to cover with backups.

Not when they’re taking massive pay cuts to stay at the likes of Manly!

Yep, no props for toppling the March top four. The best teams aren’t the ones who start the year at the top of the ladder. They’re the ones who finish there.

I know TDS has limitations, and I don't like how we got him off you guys - but he's been pretty good, tbh.

He's definitely improving.

He has a long way to go, but he is playing food footy - against you guys, he threw a corker of a pass that should have been a try to the Fox, but the Fox dropped it.
I agree with that pass. Shouldve been caught by the fox
