With Fotuieka was there any bad blood between the club and the family ? It was a tragedy , and I’m sure if the club had its time again , they would have had him under watch after the injury , still it would be human nature for the family to hold ill will towards the club, justified or not . Does...

Ethan Robert’s will be everyone’s favourite by the end of next year

Because he’s not a new shiny toy …

That’s litterally the opposite of what’s supposed to happen . Teams plan things out for up to 5 years . It’s because of this that losing both those players is going to have a limited affect . No disrespect but that mentality is how the club got itself into this position in the first place ...

I feel like that’s not a sustainable long term plan . One will eventually have to be groomed to move to right . But I think you’re right , Makasini will probably start on the wing .

The issue isn’t new kids coming in , it’s guys like Reuben Porter level 27 year old career reserve graders (probably a notch above Reuben tbh) signing for say 40k-50k , working in the leagues club for 50-60k, and then being able to be upgraded to a supplementary contract of 80k, plus the 3k...

It’s just “the grass is greener” thought mentality. Combined with the dopamine hit provided when you buy something . Like a new player. I will say this neither Jojo or star can possibly think they’re anything other than a caretaker for that centre position. They’re just keeping it warm for...

The cowboys SAWFFTTT! We turn up with intent and they will quit half way through the game .

That’s brutal … I don’t know how you can listen to Rob . I have to turn him off at times . It’s funny from a car crash point of view for a little bit , but it’s so irrational and not even grounded in reality . The things he talks about are strategies that went out in the 90s as well.l Like the...

The faithful boys do a good job , with good knowledge of the juniors . Personally I find rob to be an emotional wreck , and way too fickle and reactionary . He’s the definition of “what have you done for me lately” in regards to the tigers . It’s fair enough I get it , with how shit we have...

I almost reckon the Galvin thing was a direct response to Gould losing all those players he went in on against us . He was in on Turuva -nope , in on Luai- nope , in on the Fainu boys, even visited their bro in prison - nope , in on May- nope . That’s a. Whole bunch of Ls he’d been taking off...

For me it’s intent . You look at someone like the Fainu boys , same age as Galvin and they just have intent in everything they do . Even Mason .. he bounces off because he’s still a cub , but he puts his body where I wouldn’t put your head lol . He has intent . The catching style might have...

I was with you . I thought he was like a poor man’s Scott hill . I still think that . we will see if Gus Gould was full of shit in the next 12 months about development . Because I think it’s become really clear the tigers were doing everything in thier power to make Galvin look good . The dogs...

You’re not debating anything . You’re accusing the club and player of malpractice . I’ll debate something that warrants it . Not some guy who come on to bag the club , and a really really good high performance team . Who I at times thinks , sometimes should push the boundaries .

??? He does it in the off season like every other player … the season is for maintaining . you’ve NFI mate! The club has one of the most conservative strength and conditioning in the nrl. Peter Moussa nearly always errs on the side of caution. And his injury was an elbow . An elbow isn’t a...

What a load of dogshit . Every player in the nrl would have an injury that most people would need a few weeks off work . Getting needles and low contact through the weeks , hypo chambers , ice baths etc. the reality is he’s made of glass and needs to work on strengthening the muscles around his...

Those losses at the start of the year are painful . It’s clear this team is one of the top 2 teams in the league . They’re clearly better than all but the storm by a clear way . And even the storm id bet the tigers would beat them . It would just be much closer. . The only saving grace is much...

I don’t know how you wouldn’t . The only thing I would say , is maybe they worry can he translate that type of play to nrl level . But every game he’s good for 2 times of pure brilliance , which if you can get him better out of yardage and defensively is the difference between a good team and a...

He’s well down the order as well . That team lacked class in the spine , and he shared the fullback spot all year . He’s a good player , but at the moment , it’s really hard to see the tigers valuing him above others . As he gets older he has fierce competition in the fullback spot . He’s left...

Willet is a funny one . We were bagged from pillar to post about losing him at the start of this season … now the season is going its crickets…. Almost like much like Lobb , both are having issues with the physicality of elite football .
