    I have yet to see Bateman run a hard unders line like Ellis used to. He wants the ball early to crab across field and then straighten up. He would would my nightmare edge backrower if i was a 5/8, although on the plus side if he was defending inside you, could not want a better defensive...

    Backrow is the weak link. Egan Butcher, Mavrik Geyer, Kai Pearce-Paul, Jacob Halangahu (will be a very good player), Dylan Egan (Liam Martin clone) Trey Mooney (really like this guy) You need to target players that want to have that opportunity to dream of building a successful team and...

    The 5 players that failed fitness test named.

    Solomona Saukuru easy scape goat and then sign Fainu. I have no idea if Solomona Saukuru is even a decent player or even deserved a top 30 contract as he did not seem to set the world alight in NSW Cup.

    To a point - but i am thinking more his coaching rather than what happened within his playing contracts I don't mind stubborn but you don't need this to play out in the media either anymore than it is. If Benji is as smart as we like to think he is, then this is a battle that he should...

    WTF – Wests Tigers Faithful Podcast

    Get down to some training session if you can also. Maybe interview some of the young up and comers in Flegg. Get Arron Payne on and see what challenges he has with being coach with his hands tied behind his back so people understand his challenges as a coach in this model.

    Touch of Class has been a very under valued sponsor of the Tigers for the past 20 odd years hahahaha

    hahaha fair call - but i am yet to see any form of stubbornness in him unless I am missing reading the tea leaves. I would just love to see a high profile signing do well for once at our club. It has been a long time - Gareth Ellis i feel was very under valued and then arrived like a freight...

    I think Bateman will have a huge year. He will be one of our best players and will want to prove a pint to everyone. Is he a blockbusting backrower - no! Does he work his tail off and has a do or die mentality - 100%. If he just cuts out the 5% mistakes in his game where he can lose is head...

    I agree and this was my issue with last season also. We looked under done, we looked small in stature and we still look like that. Bulldogs changed their whole approach and that came down to training and the type of players they bought. Penrith and Storm have been doing this for years yet we...

    To me Egan Butcher is a guy you could jag - works hard, plays hard. Would not cost the earth. I would also look at getting Baily Sironen back from Catalans - another that would not cost the world and do a very good job across multiple positions from hooker and backrow. You need players with...

    Jaxson Rahme will surprise many as edge backrower - ex tigers SG Ball player, Holy Cross junior, ex Aus schoolboys who was with Souths and Newcastle. Only 20 years old - 100KG, 185cm. Really good player.

    Has it been confirmed Chris Faagutu has actually left? He could be on a train and trial deal? I think he could have been a really good player with patience much better then Kit. I am hoping he is still here. It was stated on his profile - Faagutu will join the club's Top 30 next season and is...

    He is only 28 so that is sad to hear as he has been performing at a really good level in SL and I believe he would have done a good job at any NRL club.

    everyday of the week - Staines or Ado-Carr. Not a tough choice. Game changer with speed to burn which we lacked.

    So is Ray Stone but look at him now. Apart from the injuries, Stone works his tail off and his toughness outweighs his size. Tumeth could be that type of player but just depends on the development and time given to him by the coaching staff. There is plenty of players that look like Tarzan but...
