    Toddy hedging his bets

    Unfortunately our name makes us a target. The NRL wants the Wests Tigers to be in the West of the Country, and a shark logo would fit nicely on the Sunshine Coast. Hence the recent fines and punishments handed out. They are trying to make these two clubs both financially unsuccessful as well as...

    Pascoe sanctioned by the NRL

    Can anyone tell me if Marina Go ie the chair of the board has to be registered by the NRL. Simple solution for our club. Go becomes the CEO and Pascoe the new chair. Swap is in name only, their day to day tasks remain the same. Vladimir Puritan did it a few years back. Went from president to...

    Decision not to Take the 2 with 10 to go?

    With the penalty on the siren, thought we were going to knock back the 2, take the tap and go for a field goal to cap off the day and take GI off the High/lowlites real

    Decision not to Take the 2 with 10 to go?

    Did that come from Wood's? Everyone around us at the game was gob smacked including Parra fans that when you need to score twice in such a short time and you have not scored once in 70 minutes, you take the 2\. Bring it back to a converted try, puts pressure on parra. Then you work for a try...

    Martin Taupau - Discussion Thread

    Wasn't his manager. Marty is in the UK with the All Blacks ATM, so Hired a lawyer to act on his behalf to get things sorted before tigers resume training. It was this lawyer who has nothing to do with rugby league that emailed it to the wrong person not his manager. _Posted using RoarFEED 4.2.0_

    How long has Taylor got

    Conspiracy theory: is this what's happening? Robbie won't play Taylorball and is disinterested in doing so. Taylor doesn't want to become the next Potter so does the power play and goes to the board wanting him gone. Board give Taylor enough rope to gang himself with, knowing that Robbie could...

    ANY solutions to this mess ?

    Sack Taylor. Robbie to be captain coach for the next 2 years. Gets paid $300,000 for playing and $600,000 for coaching. Coaches payments aren't included in the cap. Robbie gets his money, and will finally get on with a coach ( himself). No $900,000+ on the cap. And no Taylor , with his loosing...

    Woooooohooooo!!!

    A lesson for Taylor. A win big win against the most structured team in the comp, with positive, flowing, sometimes off the cuff football. Will he admit it. No. Will he change his structure to suit the players we have and see more of the same results. We will have to wait and see….. _Posted...

    Fans turn on Jason Taylor after shocking performance at Leichhardt Oval

    Taylor lost us that game. 2nd try through the left edge Lawrence should have been moved back. But Mr stubborn had to persist. _Posted using RoarFEED 4.2.0_

    The Shepherd

    Exactly. If it's a penalty, then blow the whistle and call it. He let Robbie play on, there was plenty of time to pull that up before Brooks scores. _Posted using RoarFEED 4.2.0_

    Tigers V Raiders live game thread - *Spoilers*

    Knew we would loose it today after the Raiders first try. A loose ball and we all just stood there and waited for them to have another crack at it. That there showed how much effort we were willing to put in today. The 1% er's count. And that counted big time today. Make an effort for that ball...

    Tigers V Raiders live game thread - *Spoilers*

    Can someone tell me why Brook's try was not an 8 point try. The tackle on Simona was dangerous and put on report. So why no penalty. It was still in the act of scoring, or does the infringement have to be on the scoring player? _Posted using RoarFEED 4.2.0_

    Benji Marshall has "gone back to the drawing board"

    and Maybe while you are at the drawing board see if it has anything on it about tackling. There has been plenty of running and stepping, but most of it this year has been out of the way in the defensive line. Not worth a contract extension on the field. For marketing yes, but for the bean...

    Sheens survives at Tigers for now

    What's the big deal. I dont see what all the fuss is. We have to pay him if he coaches, or if we pay him out. Get him an office somewhere, make him turn up each day, give him nothing to do, he is still called "The Coach" Hire someone else to actually do the coaching. Give him six months and he...
