What do people think about Pole ?

He is not a total waste of space like a few others …but geez he has some terrible errors in his game …

I don't think he starts in any other NRL pack. He isn't useless and I think he will eventually get past the odd handling error but he just hasn't got his defence up to standard. It was always a problem but it just hasn't improved.

A full strength Tigers team can compete
Otherwise a weakened side needs the opponent to play poorly for the tigers to have any chance

In addition to the above Gal (I know not a brain surgeon) identified how big an impact missing Brailey is having on the sharks ( that’s one player)
Tigers are currently missing
1st choice centre
1st choice half
1st choice lock
1st choice 2nd rower
1st choice wingers are playing in the centres
and only just got back our
1st choice fullback
1st choice hooker

THE ‘SQUAD’ CAN’T COMPETE against teams under these circumstances, unless the opposition plays poorly/woeful.
Can’t expect miracles at this time

The NRL are smoking crack if they think a 19-20 team comp is going to be good viewing. The games talent pool maxes out at 15-16 teams. And they want to add 4 more sides to the mix. Total joke.

This goes around and around. It drives me insane to be perfectly honest. Prior to and following Super League there were always complaints about too many teams, not enough talent. There still isn’t enough quality talent to expand, but the NRL is hell bent on it, until 10 years time when they will realise again, the quality of the product is suffering. The gap between first and last when there are 20 teams will be very noticeable and without assistance by the NRL I.e a draft or something along those lines we will once again hear the calls for a reduction in teams.

Sometimes i think the NRL believe that more points scored makes a game more interesting where as i believe a tightly contested scoreline makes the game more enjoyable.Admittedly i am an old bloke but that is how i prefer my football and maybe younger people prefer points being scored despite lopsided scores as more acceptable.

Hey we’re equal 7th
This could be the low we needed
Titans next weak
I’m telling you ………
……. we’re a chance 😁

We’re 10th with shittiest F/A of just about any team. Don’t try to sugarcoat it, if it weren’t for the Dragons long stretch with no wins, we’d be spooners for sure. It’s probably still a possibility! Shit team with no heart.
 
In all the years I have been a Tigers member, I have NEVER walked out of a game early.

Today that streak was broken. Still lasted until 58-0 (only because I sat through 56-0 against the Roosters in 2004), but after that first period, we just gave up completely.

I am just absolutely disgusted at the team that went out there today. Absolutely nothing in attack, and despite an early defensive effort, nothing after that.

I am not expecting miracles but i am certainly expecting commitment and effort and i did not see that from more than a few today.Abysmal performance.

We are THE team that has THE most points scored against them in a single game every single year. What a proud record 👏🏻

Absolutely, but a big difference between near full strength Penrith and a team of half state cup players

Agree. I hit the road just after halftime. I couldn't see the point in staying. Like all supporters I've sat through some terrible scorelines in recent years...but I cant do it anymore.

But isn’t that one per season and it’s over now. Back to full strength it’s possible to make a late charge, put a few wins together. Just got to get our best team back on the park.

we copped
52 against sharks
44 against storm
46 against manly
3 weeks in a row plus 68 today
That's 210 points in 4 games
That's not nrl standard

I'm sure we'll bounce back & make a late charge but these annual floggings need to stop for good
I can't think of any other team that gets flogged this bad every year
