Wonderful. You get paid the next morning??? I mean.. what's in it for you and your family???

A lovely conversation at the dinner table

For not singing the team song .. such a thickhead moment

Our players don't get fined or suspended for not singing the team song..
Oh that's right we don't win so nobody sings it 😆😆

 

[Vicious]

Wouldn't we just be filling our lack of defence in the centres with bad defense again??

Talagi is best at fullback

Talagi is best at fullback

I think Bula could be upgraded. He clearly shows great ability at times but he is older than most think, doesn’t have a powerful frame and the flashes are too few and far between for me. I think O Large could be a good fullback when he is ready.

I differ to alot on here. For the first time in forever we have a ceo that understands d's how to balance a squad while leaving pathways for juniors. That in its self is a massive positive. I think we struggle for the next two years while rich levels that out.
We all whinge about a lack of backs but we have zero coin to really improve that. I'm expecting a bulldogs like firesale that is going to piss fans off tbh.
As much as it pains me a rebuild around luai turuva the fainus and Galvin is the go but it won't be pretty.

There’s not too many that the fans will cry over after 2 spoons. I have Api, Stef and Bula, along with Galvin as the guys we need to keep. Sam Fainu has also shown above average ability.

Bula upgraded, are you watching the same games as I am ?
I do agree O Large should be developed as a fullback, he has the speed, athleticism and class to be a superstar in the making.
Talagi is obviously a couple of years ahead with age and development, he would would be a big improvement on Bula.

I think Wiz means we could do better than Bula at fullback ie. find a player who will be an upgrade on him. Large has all the ability to be that sort of player with elite speed and ball playing ability

Yes, I meant the team could upgrade the fullback position by replacing Bula. I did not mean his contract should be upgraded. From what I understand it’s already hefty ($750k or increasing to that amount).

We just need to get our attack humming and Bula will be a net contributor in my opinion. He’s still learning first grade.

Remember we’ve changed our song, the words were passed on in to each player when we did win, earlier in the season.
Fellas, here’s a good one for you:

“Who are, who , who are we, we’re Wests Tigers can’t you see,
We try real hard, and play ok, but we need a simple fitter ,
We don’t win much and forget our roles, so when we do supply us scrolls “

 

[Halbrowne61]

Dittee not fitter.

Wait who's O Large?

Onitoni Large

Rumoured to be off to the roosters 🐓

 

[Leck]

When our prop rotation looked weak a few years ago ( it still does ), I posted that we should be looking at Mikolaj Oledzki from the Leeds Rhinos - he's an absolute beast, and I hope he's on Richo's radar.

Another one we should sign is Tallis Duncan
He could become a genuine lock.
Which we have lacked for years.

Richo is a fan.
He could be a 10 year player for us.
Think he's too good to sit on the bench at south's.

I can see him being good but I don’t see him having any elite trait.

 

[BAGNF05]

He has the skills to be a Dylan Edwards in a consistent side that has multiple threats.

Tim Lafai, worth a punt?
Good connection with Luai in the world cup.

This 👆 Lafai for 2 seasons would not block pathways. A tackle busting machine.
