Just seen a clip of Elias on the Kent podcast, absolutely pasting the club. POS.

Was a comedy show.. his thoughts on how to fix the club were laughable, bringing in Michael Chieka and young discards from union. The best though, his expectations were tigers to finish in top 4. A must watch if you want a good laugh

Thanks for sharing. You just saved me from wasting a click on tjat back-door Gronk always laying the boot in.

If someone wanted to buy out HBG to take ownership of the club, how much would they be up for?

The way we our preforming I think a $1 would be close to the mark lol 😳

Sooo good. Gotta love Twally! Loved when he refused to toast Isaac Moses haha Nice cameo from Jaxson 'Rampage' Rahme too.

[hank37w]

Yeah, so Twal and who do you think is the other jackass? 🤣

 

[NT_Tiger]

Have no idea what the appeal of these two jackasses are.

Their appeal is they are uproariously funny, to each other, they think.

Hopefully the media give him the same treatment they would give a player, if it was a tigers player there would be a lift out in the telegraph this weekend about it

If he joins Channel 9, does he get a character redemption arc the same way a new born Roosters player does?

 

[The Chad]

It's basically vodka mixed with E10...

Twally with the jokes.

Sneaky buggers have been setting up in Cavesy a bit lately.

I see by your avatar that you live local mate have you felt the pain yet I fear there could be a second one in the mail for me because they don't pull you over and it takes longer than a week to come out.

A big shout out to Wests Ashfield and the Holman Barnes Group for the tremendous support they give to a vast
array of sporting organisations in the community (including the Wests-Ts) 👍

Is it a safe assumption that not ALL the bad we hear is accurate, just as not ALL the good we hear is 100% accurate too?

Regardless of how you feel about it, I think the club is better off with the support of HBG than without it. Could we use additional support & leadership? Sure. But HBG has shown traditional support, for a long time, to the club & that shouldn't be overlooked.

I know what you were saying hence my comment. At 1.8 million, there's not a lot you can do with that. It's popcorn money and they can't get much lower than what they are at now.

The next part is where it's you that's mistaken. I pointed out Canterbury because they are right in the middle and a geographic competitor. A simple benchmark to show how far away from the middle we were. They have also made the finals many more times than we have in the last 25 years. 12 finals, 3 grand finals and 1 premiership. They've had a lean few years recently, but very well could win this year. You really picked a bad example to get smug with in the Bulldogs.

Going to teams 1-7, they have 18 from 25 premierships. It's interesting you smugly bring up Parramatta too, but they are the ONLY team that has not won a premiership in the 25 year NRL period in that group. However, theybhave made the finals 12 times including a grand final. Despite Parramatta not winning a premiership, 6 out of the top 7 teams on that list have won 72% of all premierships.

I'm not saying it's the only factor in winning, but resources help a lot. The bottom of that table is full of the perrenial losers. There is a connection. If you believe money doesn't help, then I don't think explaining my position again will make a difference to your thinking, so I respect your right to an opinion.

for sure you’d have to be blind to not see the difference in resources we have compared to the bulldogs.

Never met the bloke, but I’m sure the vast majority who bag the hell out of him on here, have never met him either.

I mean what does any director of any club bring? They front up at meetings and vote on stuff 🤷‍♂️

You get judged by your results ultimately,..not people here

 

[The Chad]

Old Wests fan by chance?

Actually, no. Long time Balmain fan.

But, while I understand the bagging of the club direction over the years, it's more an issue that the club is SO reliant on HBG & not in a position to strengthen it's coffers in other avenues that really is at the core of things.

The WESTS TIGERS board, the WESTS TIGERS funding, does not have to be solely the responsibility of HBG. I think as a collective we look at the Roosters set-up which is bank rolled by Politis & assume we need 1 sole beneficiary to make us competitive.

It would be fantastic if some of the vocal, more affluent, supporters of the club would assist financially as well.

 

[coivtny]

See above

Not always. If DB was being judged by results most om this forum (me included) would have got rid of him years ago. But my point was to focus on the totally unreasonable and totally superficial focus on DB's hairstyle and musical ability. Your comment was irrelevant.

Old Wests fan by chance?

Silly comment. Your previous posts have been better.

 

[clontarfkid]

WE need a Laundy..but they definitely DONT fall out of trees!

 

[Tiger-ferret]

I’m totally relaxed mate
(but with regard sight I do need reading glasses) 🤷‍♂️.

As I keep saying - our terrible results have very little to do with whether HBG has slung the footy club 6 million or 14 trillion each season.

Sure with 300 billion each year we could employ a pedicurist for each NRL player while they’re doing video sessions (like those pampered Bulldogs), we could be paying every schoolteacher on the planet to scout for infant school scrotes with a semblance of athletic ability, we could even have Mocona instead of International Roast in the Concord Palace - but hey, at the end of the day - players either make the tackles or they don’t, they either catch the Steeden or they don’t. The coach either gets the best out of his players or he doesn’t.

How do you judge if Bennett getting the best out of his reserve graders?

Champion @innsaneink - check out:

NRL Judiciary Report: Katoa faces high tackle fine

Storm forward Eli Katoa faces a fine after being charged with a Careless High Tackle on Jack Williams in Thursday night's game at CommBank Stadium.

www.nrl.com

Usually, the Judiciary report section is on the main NRL page, but sometimes hidden, located in a box just above "Latest" - with other boxes being Magic Round, Fantasy, Tipping etc.
