Teddy carried us to 15th - 13th - 14th and 15th TOO - if you want to use the one-man team argument!

Wests Tigers halfback Luke Brooks goes back to basics to deliver on NRL promise
The Tigers halfback has been saddled with high expectations since he starred on debut as an 18-year-old, his tyres pumped up by the likes of Andrew Johns and a breakthrough to the representative ranks seeming just a matter of time.

Yeah, because he didn't get offers from other clubs!

It was not the Brooks OR Teddy show dopey!!
Teddy didn't CARRY the team - nor did Brooks!
You are deflecting from your assertion that it was a one-man team with Teddy by attacking a perceived weakness...
And ignore that your hero Teddy also CARRIED us to 15th - 14th - 13th and 15th in his Tigers tenure under your parameters!

Let's just agree to disagree man. Let's reflect how good it was to come 9th. Ah the good ole days!

We would have made the 8 that year if JT hadn't dropped Farah during Origin - so it still leaves a bitter taste!

Why is everyone in the media saying we picked a big pack? Our pack is tiny.
They're quite similar in comparison to each other.
NSW slightly bigger; they also have an extra forward with the Blues picking four forwards on the bench and QLD picking three.
NSW average forward height: 6'1"
NSW average forward weight: 104 kg
QLD average forward height: 6'1"
QLD average forward weight: 100 kg

I'm not referring to comparison. Just the talk that we picked a big pack. Jake up front with a backrow of Martin, Crichton and Mcguinnes is very small. Only one decent go forward player starting.

Its a good, strong and mobile pack.
Their bench is big and aggressive.
The Blues are clearly on a seek and destroy mission tonight.
QLD will have to really knuckle down to hold the middle.

Sorry I don't get it. While the bench has 4 forwards, it only has one front rower. So only 2 specialists front rowers in the 17.
Out of 10 forwards named we have
1 hooker
3 locks
4 backrowers
2 front rowers
The balance isn't right to warrant all this talk about going through the middle with a "big pack".
It's not a big rampaging selection that people are banging on about.
