Shit that doesn't happen often is more exciting than shit that happens all the time. This is why Parramatta is the NRL's main character. The comp is basically all about us. There's no story in the Roosters or Storm winning another premiership. Not even the Panthers now. Only their fans care. When Parra wins the comp again everyone will care. They won't have a choice.

Your nephew’s son that’s starting high school next year wouldn’t have seen the Tigers play in finals footy, would he? Hasn’t seen them finish literally within the top 50 percent of NRL teams in a given season

Nah he has seen the Tigers in the finals twice in 2010 and 2011. He has also seen three Parra wooden spoons.

Sorry Ive lost my train of thought. Your point again?

How old is the kid? He saw them play finals in 2010 but he’s not yet in high school? Sounds as though he may have repeated some years? Given his uncle’s contributions to this forum, perhaps it’s hereditary.

Im not sure you are making the killer point you think you are making.

I’m not sure what point you’re making?

Let’s be real, mate. You come in here and take the piss out of our team. That’s fine, but when we have a dig at you about the Tigers being crap, you get defensive. Last week you said we shouldn’t even discuss the Tigers in this forum.

So why are you here? Do you literally have nothing better to do than f**k around and troll fans of another team?

I think most of us know that our team is traditionally unsuccessful. Yours is too, even moreso. But you come in here with a chip on your shoulder, contribute nothing, and take the piss. I guess I just don’t understand it? Are you that bored?

Do I though? Lets be real....

your post has a lot of "literally's" and "let be reals" in it, but if you are genuinely offended by me being here, why dont you take the time to literally point to a single post where I have instigated a post or a point about the Tigers. I literally only post about the Tigers in response to one of you merkins bringing them up. Im actually pretty self aware about it and try not to stink the forum up, hence the reason I posted that "we shouldnt even discuss the Tigers in the forum."

Why did I come here? I generally cant stand LU forums but like all RL fans I dabble looking for info. Tigers LU is woeful. I originally came to this forum when Moses left the Tigers because I was irate about the way he dicked us about before shafting us and I came here hoping to gloat when you guys discovered his down hill skiing and all round merkinery. Ive enjoyed the brief moments and bitten my lip as he became a really good NRL halfback that is a considerable reason for your recent success. As I was about to leave you guys to yourselves, you signed Matterson, another grade A god bothering, narcissistic, self absorbed merkin who can play a bit and hung around like a bitter ex waiting until you guys realised. The $4K fine scenario was a moment of validation. Then Contract negotiations started with Moses and I enjoyed the ride as he did to you what he did to us with a different final outcome (probably).

Why did I stay here? Well unlike my experience with Parra fans in RL, the majority of the merkins posting here seem to be good blokes with a great sense of humour, can take a joke, can laugh at themselves and have the intelligence to understand that my posts here are made in good grace, with good intentions and trying to contribute to the spirit of the forum. Ive enjoyedposting with and interacting with these merkins. These intelligent, good humoured merkins understand Im not a troll here to pull down the mighty Parra. You are not one of these merkins.

There have been a very small number of merkins here who see my name and leap all over me with no sense of humour, irony or self awareness to yell "TIGERS SUCK". These merkins have no humour, fun, finesse or medium term memory. You are one of these merkins.

So I heard on the radio before we are after a prop and BA said we ain't gonna just sign anyone. It has to be for this year and 2 years after that. Paraphrasing.
My concern is we obviously low balled Klemmer and Taupau and couldn't get them. So now we are probably after someone who is somewhat disgruntled at their current club. I don't think we can dangle the carrot to come and play for a title. We may not even make the 8 the way we are going.
I wouldn't be against signing 1 of the following bit feel we need an established seasoned prop/lock to cover for RCG absence and Paulo impending Origin absence.
Guler
Blake Lawrie
Trey Mooney
Eddie Blacker
Simpkins from Wests
Daniel Suluka Fifita
A good hooker running around with some NRL experience is Tyson Smoothy as well.
I would also be looking at the Feagai brother currently in reserves as a winger option as he's not bad at all and in truth better than what we have.
Definitely be making enquiries on Kayal Iro as well. Stay in reserve grade or walk into Parra 1st grade....
Tyson Smoothy looks like he has so much potential to me.
How many times has be been QLD cup player of the year?

Perhaps you’re right, and we should give each other a wide berth. I guess we haven’t clicked.

And thanks for your self-professed good-natured approach in calling me a merkin, it’s truly in “good grace”.

Oh, I’m not mad. I actually think you’re probably right to some extent, that you are good natured. I think perhaps I’ve just tended to miss your worthwhile contributions.

But there’s certainly no point in holding grudges over an internet footy forum.

Neither my nephew or his son have ever seen Parra win a comp. None of my kids have either but my oldest is only 27 so it doesnt really make the point.

Wait - so your son is older than your footy team??
(That was supposed to be stinging, but as I posted it I realised at least your team has won a comp in his lifetime... I'll try harder)

Wait, I've got it, Luke Brooks.

There can surely be no greater insult to a league fan?
