    OFFICIAL STREAMING FINDS and RECOMENDATIONS

    Really interesting to see people's recommends, thanks. A bit left field. I got a free trial of a Documentary streaming service called Docplay. (I think it is 10 bucks a month normally, I'll have to look). With lockdown I'm struggling to watch drama at the moment - don't know why. But I really...

    ‘It’s the truth’: compelling new WT doco

    I'll keep watching cos I love the club, but they have created a narrative of a passionate man fighting against difficult odds: passive players, silent assistants, institutional issues, and bad luck. Will our hero (Madge) flame out, or will things turn around? It's not to say the access isn't...

    ‘It’s the truth’: compelling new WT doco

    I find it a bit hard to watch, but also fascinating. The problem as a Tigers supporter is I know the story - I watched all those games, whereas in the Netflix Sunderland one, I had no idea if the team would win or lose games so there was an element of surprise. All I am watching this one for is...

    **live game feed** vs the Dogs

    We missed Laurie out there. I knew he was important but I had no idea how much. Perhaps they will get better, with more time together, but really missed Laurie. I feel we would have won last week with him, and would scored more tries than just kicks today. But agree - that game was painful to watch.

    Good to see some left-field but realistic ideas floated. Also, the poster seems to be thinking of areas the team needs to recruit in, not just any star player coming off contract.

    I was deadset against this. I hated 'it is what it is', and having our captain try and lure our best talent away from the club. But he's a former Origin and Test prop. He is a local junior, who is one of few that would feel anything for that jersey. I'm not saying he is Benji, but Benji wore an...

    Agree. It's not unusual in my industry when a new senior person comes in to a place to do a round of "meet n greets" with important players in the industry. Even if you know the person, it's about creating or reestablishing that connection

    Wests Tigers Team v NZ Warriors..

    Swim would be great. Even seeing anywhere except for the local park would be great.

    Nene McDonald is playing centres for the Jets at the moment. I have seen a few Jets games and he is always solid in defence and runs the ball hard. I'm not expecting too much enthusiasm from this suggestion, but he's in Sydney and does have that 100-150 game experience...

    I always thought Garner would be the default centre as he played in the backs earlier in his career. Rather than Luc.

    Luke Brooks

    I don't want to get into whether or not Brooks should stay. But can't we get to enjoy a win for one day without some divisive news story dropping. Am sick of it.

    Tevita Pangai Junior

    It's true about Storm but I do wonder about how much of their success was built on the multi-year salary rorting which allowed them to keep great players together, and help create the successful brand they have now and that attracts top juniors.

    Hastings signed for 22/23 *Official.

    I'm not a league expert but I suppose when I think of the 13 I was thinking of a Connor Watson type, which I thought the club was going for. That sort of agility and speed around the ruck. There was a break and Hastings ran after the back-rower who made it and didn't get close to him, that's how...

    Hastings signed for 22/23 *Official.

    Yeah, it was the first time I've seen him play. I don't think he is a 13 - doesn't have the pace or tackling ability, but agree he was always talking, organising, pushing players around, and kicking. Looked like he was a general out there - probably made more difficult by the fact his team had...

    You make a great point. Like Joey Leulia, I just remember him tearing us apart on numerous occasions. But things might change if they came here!

    He's a game breaker. Depends on what the deal was. We don't have anyone like him in the team.
