    The J(uro) Curve

    The J-Curve took its bye week a week early. It may need to take some more weeks off since it is looking very sick… ![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DhndaFqUYAAl7Pw.jpg:large) Key numbers after 16 rounds: - 0.00% chance of minor premiership (Dragons are 44%, Rabbitohs are 28%, we are the 7th...

    Bomb threats at schools

    Gees, someone is taking the Origin loss a bit too seriously!

    Moses Mbye to make history

    Are the final round of one year and the first round of the next year consecutive? If so, it would have happened many times.

    Thanks Mike. Looking forward to the team list being announced today. Should be an interesting one…

    The J(uro) Curve

    Would you believe that we are still ahead of where we were in 2005? ![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DgRI2bVUwAEx0P8.jpg:large) Of course, 26 June (my birthday) was the day that we started our amazing run in 2005\. That was also the day that I first joined the Wests Tigers Forum. I still...

    Making your kids fans.

    My daughter, on the other hand, is a harder nut to crack. She is now 7 and has been going to games for most of her life. While she loves to go, she shows almost no interest in what is going on on the field. She loves the face paint and cheer girls, but has very little understanding of the game...

    The J(uro) Curve

    How painful was it to watch the second half on Sunday? All the hard work of the first month evaporated in 40 minutes of pure bilge. Looking at the curve, it clearly shows the damage caused to our season. 31%… ![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DgP0qq8UcAE-d0J.jpg:large) Key numbers after 15...

    Making your kids fans.

    It would be a bit rich for me to force it on my kids, seeing as how I changed teams from Parra to Balmain at the age of 13… My son showed absolutely no interest in any sport until the age of 4, when he became absolutely obsessed. The first game I took him to was against the Dragons on a wet...

    The J(uro) Curve

    I've only just managed to crawl out from under the bed after Sunday's nightmare. The curve will be updated by Friday. Seems a bit superfluous though, since you already know what it will look like…

    Wests Tigers want long-term Tamworth deal

    I think Melbourne take some of their games to Albury. Gundagai is probably too small (population 2000) and too close to Canberra too. Wagga Wagga at least has some size to it (population 54k). By comparison, Tamworth has a population of 63k. Both Wagga Wagga and Tamworth are about 5 hours...

    Referees....

    Here's the stats I was using. I assume they are correct. https://afltables.com/rl/misc/Gavin_Badger.html https://afltables.com/rl/misc/Grant_Atkins.html It also has stats on penalties, and we are on the wrong side of the equation for both refs, but not too bad for Badger.

    Wests Tigers want long-term Tamworth deal

    I would have thought somewhere south west would make more sense for us, instead of north west. Could Bowral host a game? Is Goulburn too close to Canberra?

    Referees....

    Here are the stats: - Badger: 39 games for 18 wins and 21 losses (46%) - Atkins: 11 games for 5 wins and 6 losses (45%) Against both these refs, that is better than we have done against all refs over the equivalent time. I'm surprised too…

    "I don't like footy...."

    I clearly remember watching a game on TV with a friend and his girlfriend. The girlfriend was trying to pretend that she liked footy, in a vain attempt to impress us. It was obvious that she had never watched a game in her life. I don't know how someone can have lived all her life in Sydney and...

    The J(uro) Curve

    Apologies for the delay in posting this week. With the long weekend and other commitments, it's taken a bit longer to get around to it. Also, it is not quite so much fun after a loss… After 14 rounds, we are sitting on 7 wins and 7 losses, with a F/A of +1\. Despite this, we are outside the top...

    The J(uro) Curve

    Our attack has been pathetic for most of the season. If our defence can keep us in the game, we are always a chance of winning. Some games it will come off, others it won't. On Sunday it didn't…

    The J(uro) Curve

    Well that game hurt. Yet another close loss, and the zigzag pattern continues. While we have fallen out of the top 8, our chances of making the finals are still above 50%. We are now sitting at 59%. ![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/De4LiVFUEAAdCD0.jpg:large) Key numbers after 13 rounds: - 2%...

    The J(uro) Curve

    In 2000, we stayed in the top 8 all the way up to Round 19\. In Round 12, we were sitting in 3rd place, with 6 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. That put us on 14 points, equal to where we are now. I consider now the half time for 2018, since everyone has played 12 out of 24 games. Remember, there...
