Will we see another premiership in our lifetime?

[Wizardman]

Im assuming that the vast majority of us experienced the joy of the 2005 premiership. Will we see another one in our lifetime?

For me, Im saying no and Im in my 40s

 

[axl rose]

Don't think we'll need to worry about us blowing a 16 point lead in a gf anytime soon.

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

Can't see it happening again but anything is possible. I'd given up on ever seeing a premiership by the time 2005 had rolled around.

A lot needs to change for us to be a consistent performer making the top 4 year on year. A hell of a lot. I can't see this happening. If we were to win another I think it more likely be a one off title rather than continued success.

 

[Das Hassler]

I hope I get to see one more...not only for the sake of the club and supporters but also that it would probably make me the oldest living human in recorded hustory

 

[Nutz]

Have faith grasshoppers.
Every win in the regular season's rounds are like a grand final for me so that will have to do unless there is a miracle.

 

[Tigerm]

Small steps will do me in the short term, getting into the top 8 would be fantastic atm, then I can start dreaming of better things.

 

[Vic Mackey]

We're more likley to be relocated or killed off

And yes I'm being serious

Even smaller steps...Right now just getting into the 8 diectly above us will do

If you remain worse than Saints they'll kill you off for sure just to push Saints closer to the spoon.

you guys seem to be doing a pretty good job of that yourselves

Thought I'd jump on here because it's a tigers forum. I haven't seen much of Matamua. How was he this season? Obviously I'm asking because he just got named in the samoan team today

Im a massive fan, I think he’s the best wests Junior we’ve had since Tedesco. Talented ball playing lock. We’ve messed around with him in first grade playing him in small minutes and trying him at edge forward/hooker, neither of which work. He should be our starting 13 next year. I’m ecstatic to see him in the squad , will be amazing for his development. Ben Gardner would know how good he is from his time with us.

That’s my point.

There was a movie called The Man from Earth about a guy alive for 40,000 years, not sure his motivation but possibly tigers related.

Cheers mate sounds like a awesome player. He'll definitely get a lot of confidence being around the panthers boys and a lot of young up and coming stars in the team.

He would have got more game time this year but we recruited some more experienced forwards as well as Pole was preferred. (not that this helped us avoid the spoon)
Mata is still a baby cutting teeth and still learning. As Vic said, he's a talented player and won't disappoint you with effort.

Only 20 and far from the finished product. He passes a lot and often short balls right at the line which don’t always come off. Makes a lot of mistakes which is expected with how he plays however it’s important he doesn’t go into his shell as it’s what will make him a very good player.

The clubs had him in their plans for a long time. Apparently great attitude, doesn’t drink and does an insane amount of extras at training. Really hope he gets a game for you guys.

Not sure if it would ever work, but god we need a relegation system. All this talk of adding teams when first grade is crowded enough already. I've got plenty of mates who follow EPL and they are happy with their team just being in the Premier League because it's not guaranteed. 3 teams are relegated every year.

I'd actually love to see Tigers relegated and watch us claw our way back into NRL. We would be a better team for it
