Also..don't provide eels $$ to lure Paps
Surely Tim youre smarter than that...or is this our future coach at work?
That wld be more than concerning if so

I don’t hate either player but hasting has proven in a very short time he has all the football smarts that brooks doesn’t and it’s what the tigers currently need.
Brooks has had 10 years to show something, anything , but there has always been an excuse why he has failed
Not his team
No forwards
Coach
Etc etc
I hope he achieves something before the end of his career
Also I think it was acknowledged that cherry evans was at fault at manly
And hasting has put his hand up for being immature at roosters and manly
But every one is entitled to see things differently

The little news we receive on this forum suggests that Sheens views Hastings as a lock only, being too slow for half. Sheen's comment that you must have the pace to play the position comes into play. Perhaps we should be comparing Hastings to Matamua? In anycase, it is disappointing another article about supposed rumblings in the dressing room has surfaced from the SMH.

I think sheens doesn't like the attack where Hastings touches the ball so much.

Probably too predictable

Woods and Brown are exactly the wrong players for WTs
Both cooked,lack impact in attack or defence,and will anchor us to the bottom of the table
Just because they're ex tigers is irrelevant..they've given their best elsewhere and are now in reserve grade...for a reason
We need young large hard running forwards that will eat metres and create a go forward platform ,not superannuants
Heck,we've got a truckload of $$...aim highe
Rather Tamou for another yr than Woods,and weve got Offa/Hastings and a bunch of young guns coming thru at 13
Packolino 2.0!
Bizarre

BULLSEYE 🎯

Shooooo Good morning warrior DEMPS

 

[Buttface]

what page,not noffa,do tell

About 6611 I think.

 

[The SHADOW]

Player————mostly a reggy
Star—————first graders
Superstar——-household names

on this scale, what we need now is to target at least 3 Stars as a minimum

Brown isn't coming

 

[philgood]

Brown isn't coming

Any other signing news?

 

[Bring back Olaf Prattl]

Brown isn't coming

Any bad news ?

 

[Stevec]

I'm starting to doubt any big names are interested even if Tim wants to hold comment till deals are done you would certainly be hearing rumours
I don't hear much except the usual players on the outer elsewhere because they are now over the hill like Woods or the fanciful stuff like Teddy and Moses
We sure need an image that attracts and not people that 20 years later still primarily identify as a magpies or balmain supporter

 

[KH1988]

There is very little available for 2023 you are basically only going to get players on the outer elsewhere, players with dud contracts or players that the team is happy to let go so they get an opportunity elsewhere.

The big action hopefully starts November 1

 

[The SHADOW]

In what way ?

Wow I was under the pump yesterday.

 

[tiger_scott]

You've got it all wrong Tiger, according to Lee we have 400,000 fans which only makes it $75 a head.

* according to Lee, fans don't count though?

 

[TheDaBoss]

Ivd got my Dora tigers shirt ready for Sharon's return

 

[tiger_scott]

The only mistake he did was knocking back Red Socks $12.5M GM offer.
Might see if I can get to see Draft Day on Netflix or Prime library. Thanks

Draft Day is an excellent movie. I follow the NFL and like to watch it each year before the real life draft as a primer.

This was before Brooks' injury.

MADDEN’S IRE OF THE TIGERS

The new Wests Tigers regime of Tim Sheens and Benji Marshall are in danger of losing rising playmaker Jock Madden.

Sport Confidential can reveal Madden will quit the club if the Tigers persist with maligned Luke Brooks as their first-choice halfback alongside Adam Doueihi and Jackson Hastings at the scrumbase.

Off-contract at season’s end, Madden’s preference is to stay at the Tigers and the former Australian Schoolboys star ideally wants to be the main man in the No.7 jumper.

But if Sheens opts for the inconsistent Brooks as his chief shot-caller in 2023, then Madden will head for the Concord exits.

The 22-year-old has played 11 top-grade games since his debut last year and believes he is ready to step up as a starting halfback on a regular basis in the NRL. (Courier Mail)

Anyone can buy in

He has a real chance to estaish himself over the next few weeks. If he is going to make it then this 6 weeks is career defining for him and perhaps for us

I wonder where he will go ? I mean if someone offered him a contract you'd think he would be gone yesterday.

I reckon he deserves a shot but it's not that easy.
