THIS SIDE WOULD MAKE THE TOP 4 IN `2005!

I dont see how Price and Webb would just turn us from a fringe 8 side to a top 4 side.

You cant tell me that team is up there with Brisbane, Easts, Bulldogs...

I would say, to much criticism to many people here, that the backline in the team posted by Vicious is defensively pathetic.
Only Halatau is a decent defender in spots 1 to 7.

Too much work is reliant on the forwards.

Ill be hypothesising my head off this year and every other year we are in the comp.I think its extremely healthy to try and work out how to turn our crap team into a good one.

Cheers.

PS......there are still plenty of good players out there,I still reckon we only need to jag a couple to be a force.......

westie,
Vicious, you're a flip mate. Where does this obsession with Flegg players come from???

I was having a go at your fetish with wanting to play young blokes before their time. I didn't even realise your team had any flegg players in it, to find out you actually want to select Alberts dazzles me even furthur. Not to mention Greally on the wing.

Of the side I chose,every player has played 1st grade already this year except for Greally/Alberts.What are you saying?That Greally can`t play?

Yes, I am saying that Greally wouldn't be a winger in a top 4 side.

There is some pretty ordinary wingers running around in the current top 4-6 teams namely Stuart Kelly,John Carlaw,Todd Byrne,Brett Howland,Andrew Frew,Reece Simmonds,Gavin Lester,Scott Minto etc.If you have good forwards and good inside backs,ordinary wingers can be made to look good!In saying that I think you will find that Simon Greally becomes a much better than average footballer!

Damn, I just wrote out a nice long reply and got a posting error. As I couldn't be bothered typing it again I'll summarise it:

Most of those players are out-performing Richards.

Just because some teams have a mediocre winger doesn't mean we have to. Donald would be a good target.

Changed only because the players that were originally their have since been signed by other clubs. :roll: :roll: :roll: As of now it looks like we have missed signing any quality front rowers which is a vital ingredient in the Tigers imroving any on this year!The majority of prospective teams for next year posted are virtually the same as the sides that got flogged by the Dragons and Roosters.Is that an improvement???

Mate,some of your posts are very informative,but if you don`t know what your talking about,don`t post anything!The players,yes there was more than 1,namely Paul Stringer and Ruben Wiki have since been signed by other clubs after i`d already included them in my original post! :roll:
