No… I mean a nice beach … if you lIve there already then parking isn’t a problem

Beg to differ my guy … but you do you .

Stephs a good prop he just needs a big impact partner imo

 

[jirskyr]

Willison is a gun...bends the line far more than Sefano....

I think the reason why the fans are concered in loosing Stefano is we feel as if we wont get an as good a replacement....

Bit of a daft comparison.

How much would Willison bend the line if he was starting prop being asked to play 60 minutes for a Bottom-4 side? Teams would simply gang up on him.

There are lots of Broncos forwards who can ply trade, often aggressively or dynamically, because the Broncos never lack for class in the forwards and thr workload is spread. I am sure Stefano would love a hitup after Haas and Carrigan have taken the first two carries.

Should be Pole... not quite there yet

Glad some are now pointing out that Willison is having impact off the bench, in a very dominant squad.

Don't get me wrong- he is the exact type of bench impact we lack- but Utoikamanu is considered a potential SOO class player, for a reason.

We need a better rotation of players from the bench. We need better combinations to take advantage of the good players we have.

Utoikamanu might not be the greatest front rower in the NRL.

But he is by far the best forward we have.

Ahh ok I didn’t know that. If we put in an offer I’m not against it, although I don’t think we’ll promise him fullback. I reckon Centre with the possibility of becoming Fullback if we do try and get him.

So far this week I have seen 3 fullbacks I would swap Bula for. [Fuller, Talagai and Walsh]
We at Wests Tigers Live in hope!

Xavier Willison 22yrs,198cm,114 kg 2/08/2002.
Not a bad bench prop.

Getting all 3 of those for Bulla is a pretty good deal. 🤣 🤣 🤣

Staines has to have the lowest football iq of any football player. Bombed two tries and made a shocking read for Newcastles third try.

Really need to upgrade the outside backs positions immediately.

Bradman Best ran through Naden like he was fairy floss.

Toa, Naden and Staines are all here for next year.

Along with Feledy.

Imo all 4 of them they need to try and move on. They are not up to it. We will never improve with guys like this in the side unfortunately.

Broken record.... get a real coach.

What training problem?

You have watched our games? Surely you jest.


This whole thread is dedicated to recruitment. Yet whoever we recruit Dips in performance.
We need to be seeing players improve, through being a part of the Tigers system. Instead we see first graders become reserve graders. This ISN't a recruitment problem this is a training problem.

i just can't fathom how players get worse. We boast a great junior system through the magpies, with touted players who come and don't preform. then we sign starters, or big players from around the league (ahem ahem papali'i) and they also decide not to preform.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

I would be telling Stefano he can go

 

[InBulaWeTrust]

I really don't understand how that would help us tho, just gives us less depth in a position we already have no depth in. Who is gonna replace him, cause i aint having seyfarth take his jersey
