What is a successful 2026 for the Tiger's

10th or 11th with some key performances like AD, Bula, Pole KPP and Taylan

And another good purchase of a quality forward
 
For me a successful season has to have two components - on and off field success. If we acheive one and not the other we will still be a pile of poo come this time in 2027.

On field I am looking at results, style and consistency; and off the field culture, alignment, stability, and engagement.

On Field
  • Finish inside the top 8.
  • No losing streak longer than 3 to build consistency.
  • Defeat all of the bottom-half teams and compete with the top-4 sides.
  • Defeat Parramatta and the Dogs.
Off Field
  • A push from JV to united club
  • Pathways plan developed and funding indentified
    • Retention of core talent through proactive contracts.
    • Coach development plan.
KPIs
  • Average 22+ points per game.
    • Effective set completion and quick play-the-ball speed - completion rate mid 80%
  • Hold opponents to under 18 points on average.
    • Strong line speed.
    • Reduced penalties conceded (especially in key field positions).
  • Positive differential (points scored vs points conceded).
  • Club viewed as professional.
  • Media highlighting progress, not off-field drama.

I think the top 8 is a bit of a stretch, its easy to get carried away before the season starts.

It's very rare to find an independant 'expert' having the Tigers in the 8
 
Going into every game not knowing who is going to win, would be nice.

In the last decade we have gone into games knowing we were not finishing on the winning side.

Luck and injuries play a big part but our depth does look better this year 🤞

2009 2010 2011 was fun
 
It was, but 15 years is a long enough wait.
Building up to the blow off top

If the team is fit and healthy we should be in most games this year
Squad permitting I agree with this.

The group has enough talent to expect top 8.


It really does both edges are dangerous a few on here are bagging To'a but he was on fire before the injury and ended up playing 19 games

Got to wonder if he was asked to play injured
 
Success is
Winning night games - 1 of 10 last year
Winning away record - team that win away make finals
Beat the bottom sides - we lost to Knights, Titans, Parra, Souths and twice to the Cowboys and got very lucky against Dragons. Our issue wasn't measuring up to the top sides it was getting the job done against the lower sides

Fix those and it'll be a great season
