LIVE GAME Round 22 v Bulldogs

[Betterdays22]

Credit where it's due...the WTs went out there in terrible conditions and played their hearts out..Great win against a top side...the team is getting better,injuries and chopping and changing positions for some is what's causing them instability at times...they will only get better as the positional changes stabilise...

Think the conditions really helped us today. Totally mediated our clunky attack and turned it into an absolute dog fight won on committment and effort

Now have 2 weeks to fine tune some combos with Bula back on board before the final few games

What did everyone think of Sione Fainu playing right backrow today? Don't think anyone has mentioned this positional change.

Thought he was solid, a bit of a lapse in defence when Matt Burton made that big break from dummy half in 2nd half.

Conditions probably suited a player like Sione on an edge, just think he is much better middle.

impressive the 1st half

Smart coaching in the wet weather. Do that on a fast track and we will have memories of Kyle Lovett in the centres against the panthers at the 8th a few years back.

Not sure if it was noticeable on tv but everytime the tigers made and error or gave away a penalty they all ran and made a clapping gesture. It just seemed nothing was phasing them and they were going to defend like their lives depended on it

Great noting that, I thought exactly the same

Ok ... that's a bad hand btw lol

Couldnt seen his thumb at first i thought wtf you gotta chop your thumb to do it?
Fanatical haha

 

[hsvjones]

Did anyone see the video of the team song, I think they changed the lyrics at the end to sing “Galvin who the [This word has been automatically removed] are you”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Our Team song is the worst in the game IMO...

Someone needs to work on a new one that makes sense, and you can play around stadium after the final siren for all to sign E.g. Brisbane Lions have a great one

 

[Bellend]

Watch the game live today and the only i hated was watching Seyfarth in first grade, leave on the bench or just drop him all together.

 

[TSP]

what did Ciraldo say in the presser?

He said he should have taken the Wests Tigers job.

 

[stephen]

He has been fantastic every time he has started. Benji putting him back to the bench was a terrible move. Hopefully after today Benji realises he needs to start

He's been giving us some much more than Pole for some time now.

Loved the win. Couple of doggies supporters at work will be hearing about this win all week lol.
AD for one more year and pay him what he wants till he eventually signs with perth.
I have always been a huge sayfarth guy, but after today he has to go. Can't afford that type of shit against sides that will make you pay

I reckon AD is gonna hit his prime and we should lock him up for 2 years.

 

[stephen]

That spoke volumes didn’t it
Happened in a flash…

I missed that, Spider. What happened?

Anyone remember Dolphins vs Bulldogs? Similar playing conditions and they got whooped that day too.

 

[magpies forever]

Well done WT. I wasn't able to listen to the game as I was up with my family visiting my mum in her nursing home- and as both wife and daughter hate sport I have no hope of listening to radio in the car. Arrived home and checked the forum and lo and behold we bloody won and won well. At most I was hoping for a close game but not expecting a WT win. I have a smile a mile wide. So proud of the guys and benji. So, so happy.

Sam Fainu holding up Crichton in the 1st minute of the game set the standard for our effort today! Super tackle!

Yeah, Sam's been working hard all year despite carrying injuries and a bit out of form. Massive today. He'll be a cornerstone of our pack in coming seasons.

Broncos whipped them in the rain too.

 

[innsaneink]

That nearly looks like something else 🤔

One in the pink..
Two in the stink..
Dirty doggies

 

[Siberian Kitten]

Is Pole injured? Not the same player as earlier in the year.

That was the best I've seen Douehi, Naden and Skelton play.

 

[Merlot]

I just rewatched the game. Cronk is a moron, so much hate for the Tigers.

muted its voice today for 15 minutes , wishing for Roy n H G on the tape deck

I like him at 13 but def has nailed a starting spot.

 

[I_m_a_Tiger]

Props to Benji for reading the conditions and moving Doueihi into

Lock Adam Doueihi up Richo.

I thought he should have been halfback all season. Galvin massively overrated. AD -underrated. Even Luai said he should be 7 after a trial game.
