Yea I was working in a Smash Repairs shop in Darlinghurst, 2nd year apprentice. Got the train from Campbelltown every day. My manager turned up the radio in the shop to give me shit about that prediction. It was everywhere. All the boys I worked alongside were massive league fans and after...

Sorry Mate! -- I think you've misunderstood me. Or I've been unclear. My only big gripe with Sheens was that he pushed the Board to pick either him as Coach or Longmuir as CEO. One had to leave, it was Sheens' ultimatum. Mostly because Sheens refused to have his performance measured...even...

Thanks for saying this.

Well, it'll be documented forever that you called it first.

We were close to / or / over the salary cap from 2009 - 2012. Robbie and Benji took 'paycuts' to make things fit that would get paid into their contracts next time around. There were other players too but they were the big ones. Benji took a verbal agreement and handshake from Humphries for a...

It's not the money that's the big issue, its the short duration of extra option. It accomplishes nothing in our favor. Even if we do take up the option, we're basically left stuck paying overs just to have to go in and negotiate a year later with two extra clubs joining the competition. Except...

I hope we win at least one of those two games. Adam Reynolds is an incredible player. If he plays he'll certainly have his moments. He was world class against us in Brisbane last year.. we were actually going really well.... didn't he score a field goal just before half time? I think there was a...

Guys its ultimately up to Jahream. He's clearly a devout Christian, and also seems pretty dedicated to helping out Blackfellas at the Redfern youth centre. He's no fool. He's not going to be swayed by chicanery real or imagined. Gould isn't going to tip the scales. This infernal contract is...

Sheens was political too tho. He pushed out a club CEO with an ultimatum because he didn't want to operate under KPIs and hated any kind of transparency and accountability of results of the football department... after 4 really, really, annoying years post 2005 with him tinkering around with...

I remember the Terry Lamb zipline! Raddison Maine! The Wolves of Queen Street. When I watched the Wolf of Wall Street and they called their business "Stratton Oakmont" -- I was like - jeez. they could Sponsor Wests. They fleeced 500k from Jeff Fenech too. I'm not sure we were at Concord under...

I used to think that about him. He's not. Champion players don't need to sh1thouse with the ref like he does. Champion players just make the difference with their footy. Same with the Storm and Cameron Smith. They were either cheating outright or too actively manipulative against what the game...

This thread is about 33% less stupid sounding when I first read it a month ago.

They've gone down the same path we did from 2017-2023 and ended up in the same place. Signing mercantile coaches, being the last stop saloon for middling former rep stars, and not being brave enough to give youth a chance. Flanagan is awful. He won his premiership on the back of bad boys...

You have to give the devil his due. Pascoe did not shank the COE. Even Richo said it's as good as any facility in the Southern Hemisphere.

I can remember the misery on the old Wests Tigers forum that was attached to the actual Wests Tigers website. The Broncos were at the absolute peak of their powers in those days. Casey McGuire, Scott Minto, Brett Seymour, Scott Prince, Corey Parker and Shane Walker were all legit first graders...
