You can’t fix a losing franchise ever

Stage 4 TDS Symptoms can include a persons inability to speak about simple things such as sport without projecting their political views , also insulting others peoples lifestyles and socioeconomic status is a very obvious sign of late stage infection.

Save us the sanctimonious bullsh*t.

Were you triggered by the word 'magastan' or 'bogan'? Your people would call that being a snowflake.

Also, it seems that 70% of the US population are suffering accute TDS based on T-rump's current polling.

And it's broadly accepted that after 4 years of Vegas, the NRL has barely made an impression on the American market. The purpose of the extravaganza is to saturate the news cycle in Australia, but how long before it becomes passe? Perhaps the AFL will schedule their opening round in Buenos Aires in competition.

Totally agree.
 
16 years of no finals & counting
Just accept that we are a bottom 8 side to stay "SANE" year in year out
Stop the hype at the start of every season & accept that it might take another 15 years to make the finals
😁
 
Unless it’s August and we are in the top 8 I will never ever accept again accept anything that is positive. Stop with April champs evey yesr

To can’t fix a losing franchise and never will worst franchise in sporting history no one ha it beat.

I Dont want to see a March. 3.1 record 2027 isn’t here bs that differently tigers team even against
Boston Red Sox, Man City, Chelsea all deadbeats for almost a century longer than the West's tigers.

What fixed them, Owners with deep pockets, vast resources, the best of adminstration, coaches and scouting resources with world class facilities.

Actual standards and accountability, not just empty meaningless words and promises !!!!

Ownership dollars can only do so much in the nrl though with the salary cap, unlike Chelsea where abramovich splashed as much cash as he wanted on players

Cash is 100% relevant, do you think we are spending the same as successful clubs on, pathways, scouting and coaching ?

Why could Chelsea splash cash ? Because the owner had it and was motivated to because he wanted to win !!!!

The owners are the leadership group, they set the strategic objectives and provide the resources to execute them.

They set standards and drive the culture and what's acceptable.

It's the exact reason we will never be competitive under the owenership of HGB !!!!

We have had a bad year with injuries I understand that but from now until then end of the year I want Latu to play 80 minutes aweek in first grade or Reggie's every week get him ready for next year as the starting 7 why is he here if he doesn't play a full game
Because Fulton’s agent offered the HBG board a package deal and you know how they relish hiring someone to do a job, then doing it themselves, just to prove they are every bit worth their $100.
 
I’ve lost count of the amount of times we’ve signed or re-signed a player, and in the announcement the player proclaims “The Tigers are a club with an exciting future”, or some variation of. Everyone from Adam Blair to Jake Averillo. Averillo said we’re building. If our club were a construction company, you wouldn’t hire us to build a Lego set. The Great Wall didn’t take this long to build.

Yeah ..I get it …

But what are they gunna say ? the truth would be ..“Im here because they paid me the most”..
 
Re builds start with your no7. Battling teams need an elite organising no7 with a first class kicking game. Luai has not been a disaster but he has not been the half we needed. A player like Fogarty would have been great.

I guess it is hard to get a handle on this years performance with so many crucial injuries but my gut feeling is we would have still fallen down the black hole and missed the eight. It’s also hard to get optimistic about 2027 although I think 2028 things may change
