This forum is in desperate need of a signing or a win...

Why - there'll be arguments over the merits of anyone who is signed and for how much/how long compared to another player who could have been signed for less etc etc. We'll all give our learned opinion and believe we are right in our views. It'll never stop it's just what social media was created for !! Divide and control.

We could sign Payne Haas for minimum wage and they’d be some on here having a winge.

you’re a miserable middle aged man openly dickriding a footballer who destabilised the very club you supposedly support. petty personal insults to try and pump up your fragile little ego won’t work here.

I have never once pumped this kid up. Not once. He should still be in reserve grade learning his trade.
It’s you “podcasters” who constantly dick rode him and now you’re all trying to bury him. That’s what I find funny.
Your audience is dwindling down to just butthurt Tigers fans - the NRL community in general is pisspot tired of hearing about it.
Maybe, instead of sooking about something you can’t change, you should put your efforts into coming up with suggestions/solutions for the club to devise strategy to stop this from happening with the next crop who are coming through?
That would be far more interesting than digging up shit on a kid from when he was in Harold Mathews.

all of this crud you pander speaks to the fact that you don't listen to the pod, and instead read my posts to find anything you can clutch onto as some form of 'receipt'. we get supporters from rival clubs that constantly view, subscribe and join in the comments. once again, if you listened, you'd know that, but again, you've shown your hand.

if you had listened last week, you would know that Galvin took up approximately ten minutes of an 80 minute episode. if you think that discussing past release requests isn't relevant, then you clearly don't understand the need to provide background and context when analysing a situation.

Both would be nice.
It’s no point worrying about what has happened in the past, but to give supporters a bit of hope moving forward we need some wins quickly and to give us hope in 2026 onwards we need to see some signings which were promised to us by Richo a month or so back.

We need the win more urgently IMO…. Unless they are signing someone who is gunna play in the next week or 2, signing someone for 2026 won’t move the needle much in comparison
 
I suspect we may be waiting to see if anything shakes pre June 30. Not really much point showing your hand now, unless its a player that wont be released at all or has some contract runway (Jarome, Fish etc)

Idk mate. The goalposts are always being shifted to justify the clubs inaction. First it was the Galvin situation, then it was Origin, the fact we have a bye coming up, or a home game. If it goes on long enough, the next one might be waiting for the new financial year.

At the moment it is just a vacuous space for people to troll. I enjoy the range of ideas on this forum but the debate has gotten pretty mindless and stale of late
 
I for one don't understand the need for some people to have some sort of god like I told you so complex about supporters who choose to be positive & support their club. I especially don't understand the need to constantly come on a forum & get into arguments with people to show how right you are & how wrong they were. At the end of the day we're all Wests Tigers supporters and want what's best for the club. The constant high school bickering that's been on this place lately is childish & pathetic FFS supposed to be a bunch of grown men on here.

This place has been worse. Two or three years ago it was a toxic circus. It’s not perfect, but it’s improved significantly from that period.

I seem to have gotten a rep for being negative. At the end of the day, it’s not like it hasn’t been justified. I copped a lot of shit the last 3 years for calling it how I saw it, but I haven’t really been proven wrong. And I have never gone the “I told you so” route. Once the season proper rolls around, everyone tends to see it for themselves. This year though, despite some dark periods, has been better. Could still turn pear shaped, but for now, I think everyone can agree that overall, this year has seen some improvement

I can only speak for myself, but I never shit on anyone’s positivity. I may disagree or tell them where I think they are misguided, but I’m never critical of someone wanting to see the positive side. The same can’t be said for when it’s the other way. Some would call it negatively, others being realistic. And given how this club runs most of the time, it’s hard to argue.

I'm not talking you specifically I'm saying there's a few on here that constantly do it to other people & even bait them into doing so. Hek I'm not gonna sit here & be a hypocrite and say I've been positive the whole time I've been on here, before Richo got appointed I was one of the most negative people on this forum but never once did I attack or abuse people who felt a different way. All I'm seeing these past couple of days is bickering & arguing & abuse over a team we all support.

There are seven billion people in the world. Some are going to be arseholes. And especially when it’s on an anonymous forum.

If the club continues at the bottom of the ladder for too much longer, more of our better players will leave, it will be far less likely that good quality players will want to sign with us and more of our fan base will continue to drop off due to ongoing disappointment.
If we continue to get poor results and lose supporters the club will fold, no ifs and buts about it.
The vast majority of supporters who post on this page are passionate and want to express their opinion on what is going so badly wrong and thoughts on how to possibly improve the position we are in, nobody should be criticised for that.
