    Why, because he hasn't won a comp? Neither did Wayne Pearce.

    I was so excited to see 10 pages of content since lunch time! Made a tea and sat down ready to read..........is that the best we can do as a forum of West Tigers tragics? With respect to Douiehi, I cant see him playing 6 if Sheens is happy to let Hastings walk. Hastings has a great footy brain...

    I am not sure whether anyone else has commented on this yet, but in the club update did i see that Logan Dillon is back in the mix? Was disappointed when he wasn't supported last year. Hopefully this is a good sign that he will be "coached" and possibly improve his deficiencies.

    Laurie played well toward the end of last season. Once Madge left it was obvious that he was being told to support up the middle and we looked sharper when he was doing it. We could have been successful with this play too if our forwards had an offload in them. Part of me wants Hastings to...

    Surprised that there are so many caning our proposed new signings after they just spent a season cheering on a pea hearted group of nuffies to last place in the comp. We have money to spend and we need to spend it and there aren't many players out there that are worse than what we have just...

    Naden is a significant step up on our other center options, with maybe the exception of Doehie who doesn't want to play there anyway. Toa and Kepoa are not strike centers but could improve under Sheens (look what he did for Ayshford). Weren't we deep in talks with Parker from Manly? That has...

    Definitely top 5 for mine. It took Belcher on the end of a very successful Raiders backline to dislodge Jack who was the incumbent. There were other great fullbacks like Shearer, Ridge and I am sure I am forgetting a few but Jack had the best all round game I have seen. Jonathan Docking was...

    I saw plenty of Garry Jack. I can honestly say that when the opposition made a break, I was always confident that he could stop them as the last line of defence. His defensive game was second to none and he was great under the high ball too. Had speed off the mark and could hit a hole. Great...

    I bet Dylan Brown is over the moon to be considered second choice by the last placed team in the comp. Surely he would sign on the spot.

    Are you indicating we signed one? If it is Andrew I wont be too excited, but if it is one of the others then I could be really excited...

    The mail seems to be that Brooks and Klemmer will swap clubs on agreed salary of $800K per year. Tigers will then front a further $300K for Brooks to play at the Knights. So if we are paying Brooks $300K to play somewhere else, how does that sit with everyone?

    I don't mean that the coaches shouldn't be involved at all CB, just that they can get a little trigger happy when trying to recruit or maintain high profile players and it can be to the detriment of the club if it doesnt result in instant success. Ivan is a classic example.

    Management of the salary cap should be for bean keepers and not coaches. If the clubs gave him free reign over cap management then more fool them. Des is no fool, but he wont be Treasurer either.

    Agreed to an extent. How much can the halves want their contracts upgraded by if we are the worst team in the comp? Does it matter that much who we bring in? Anyone is better than what we have. The salary cap money is there and has to be spent. We got good value out of the Api and Ice deals and...

    A spot in the roster is more important at the moment than a fringe halfback who is NSW Cup level at best.

    I thought the Pom's update said he was leaving but I could be wrong...he also said Tumeth was staying but then another poster suggested that was incorrect too.

    I feel Naden needs to be in the Centres. he look a class above the other today but didnt see enough ball. Has started running backwards which is a worry but his attack and defence is too good for the wing
