Hetherington not selected in the Broncos 13 for the first time this season. Could he be on his way out....

Dropped to bench after a disgraceful performance last week.

4 runs for 29 yards last week …sounds like just what we need

they were so bad, had to make changes.

God no.

All true..but we tend not to focus on attributes which will enable the next step to NRL..Speed/size/work rate/athletism...KPIs that can predict their future
Dont tell me Bellamy doesnt do just that.. not a science..but basic footy smarts
Not in abundance at WTs pre Richo

Players are happy to go to Melbourne very early in their career without the guarantee of a Top 30. Wests Tigers have offered way too many of these to attract players to the club, and then have the problem of a top 30 roster with too many spots taken by players who are not yet NRL ready, or by players that in the fullness of time demonstrate they will likely never be NRL ready.

Mate you are the biggest case of little man syndrome I've ever seen

Mate don't start him up seriously. He's Rambo of social media.
Little man syndrome at its best.

Like the look of it, glad Hunt is in reserve grade, means benji is serious but wow he wasn't injured and played 10 minutes and was gassed. Send him to a cardiologist.

3 Fainus in the squad. Just like the Mortimer brothers back in the 80’s . Hope they all lift for the occasion. Family must be proud of them. Go Tigers.

He has been ordinary most the year and struggling to play 50-60mins.

Solomon Saukuru has played mostly 2nd row this season.

Could be his days as a potential centre are over.

Been very impressive in the backrow over the last 2 weeks before that he was on the wing or centres. He looks great on bsckrow in flegg

 

[Tim Sheens]

At this point I’d like us to try and get Fafita and Matterson on loan. Just see how we go with some guys who can impact the game.

A couple that could fill those long vacant spots that I alluded to in the CEO thread, whether temporary or permanent.

We really need some kids coming through in the back row.

Because he's been nothing but an imposter in the first grade for the past month! I've never seen a more unfit specimen in my life.

If he’s that unfit nearly halfway through the season it reflects poorly on the clubs strength and conditioning. I know they can’t do the training for him or remove fourandtwenty pies from every servo he passes on the way to and from training, but there does need to be some adult supervision.

 

[SwervinMervin]

benji prefers to make a point than give us the best chance of winning a game it’s so frustrating sometimes.

Hard though to carry a guy in your 17 that is gassed after 10 minutes. Not as if they have been barnstorming Spencer Leniu type minutes either.

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.

Problem is there are many on here that do nothing but bag people that are out there doing there best for a lot of hours of the day then we have these called keyboard warrior professionals that jump on line and will tell you how they have all the answers. The club is obviously struggling and has been for years. Can benji coach idk but he's an immortal and Richo has been around the game more than most. It's obviously not am easy fix but I do believe the club has done more in the last 12 months than the last 10yrs.
I'm hoping there a few more signings in the next few weeks that's gives us a little more fire power. If I have to throw my personal opinion in I still think of a post I read where it was mentioned good sides seem to hit in tackles and we seem to just catch them. I would like to see more emphasis in our D just like the bulldogs did. Seems to be harder than we think. We will eventually get there. When idk.but things will improve. Plus i bet we get more excited than a Melbourne fan after a win. 😁

 

[Lestronge]

No, I agree with your post. It was you reluctantly agreeing with your nemesis that i was joking about mate .. 🤣😉

😛 even a broken clock is right twice a day …

We’ve still yet to get the bounce of the ball . From 05-13 see definitely had the run of the green . So many times I would say things like “that was a knock on lol I’ll take the try though” . Little did I know that karma was going to turn into what we experience today .
One day it will turn . The closer and longer we stay at 500. The more likely the dam will break .
Starting with Penrith on Sunday . That team is a shell of itself . We can do them . We’ve beaten at thier peak mid dynasty . We just need belief .

4 runs for 29 yards last week …sounds like just what we need

We need the defence. The broncos are horrible when Payne Hass isn’t in the team. I’m not defending him , just saying where the value is in him . It’s not his strike with the footy that’s for sure …

 

[TigerBurnsy]

Sione has really his place in the team hey

Tui would fit in, already knows the Fiji boys.
He is a bit of a hybrid between workhorse and impact.

Do we carry Hunt on the bench or drop him to cup?

Drop too cup I think

 

[Modman]

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.

You just can't help yourself can you. These platforms just allow people like you to do what they can't in the real world. Sad really but you keep enjoying telling us how your the only opinion that counts. SMH.
