Stefano looking to blame anybody but himself for that poor defensive effort.

Get Lobb off - have bad is his defensive reads. There was no need for him to go up. You just stay on your man and use the sideline as your extra defender....it is not rocket science.

Dumbest team in the comp.

100% - has been for years. Sick of the pathetic efforts week over week. Sharks making over 50M in the 1st/2nd tackle of a set is embarrassing. e are the team that always plays other teams back into form. I reckon every team cant wait to play us each week. Defense wins games is an attitude...

Needs to improve his defense quite a bit. Not sold on him.

As a ball playing lock you need to mix up your game. I have never rated Matamua. Big body player with a pea heart. His work rate is low and impact even lower sometimes i forget he is playing. The best lock forward that has ever played our game was Bradley Clyde. That is what every single...

So is Matt Betsey to blame? Didn't he come from a cricket background? Is Arron Payne to blame from a coaching POV. Personally, our recruitment in the lower grades has been terrible. Massive overall is required to if these so called superstar kids are to come through in the right environment.

There is a pathway to NRL with us - lose more games and you are more than likely to get a game in the NRL :). It is a very clear pathway hahaha

100% agree- he runs are bog average and his defense is okay. If I was given a chance at 27 years old to play NRL, I would be running onto that ball with power and speed to make a name for myself. He looks like a player that goes about his job at one speed. Just expected more intent from a...

Agree and have said this for a while that we always look unfit and lack any strength. Players get dominated in tackles and when tackling the opposition struggle to put them on their backs. Watch the game this week and Canberra will be huge in body type and physically. The standards need to be...

Canberra is our bogey team and also coming off a huge loss a home. We never play well against the raiders and I have a feeling we will play them back into the winning circle. While a good win last week, it was a poor defensive effort and basically Titans blew that game. Thought Mason and...

I know he is 18 but I would love to see him come out, ahead of the questions from the journalists, stating his remorse and commitment to the club and Benji. This would give the fans buy in to him as a person and Wests Tigers player. Atm, while i think he has huge potential in the game, that is...

I would look at bringing Sione Matautia back to the NRL. He has been class for St Helens for a number of seasons and brings that toughness and win at all costs attitude coming from a class organization. He is still only 27 years old but seems to be around for ages.

Yes, I believed he played SG Ball and u/20's and also played for Australian Schoolboys but then was signed by Parra here he made his debut. His size has always been his achilles heel but you cannot fault his whole hearted play regardless of size. He has had his injuries but just love how he...

When we talk of effort players and would not cost the earth, the 2 players that come to mind would be Sam McIntrye and Ray Stone - both have played at the club but have grown and flourish as good squad effort players. I would have these 2 guys everyday of the week in my 17.

100% agree

Fair play to Braith, Gordon and Read for giving it to Buzz. Especially on Isaac Moses and Fulton. First time I have heard Braith stick up for the tigers.

Great post @Lauren and fully agree with what happened in that 2nd half. Our bench was poor also. We have forwards who jog onto the ball. If I was making my 1st grade debut at the age of 26 (Porter) i would have ripped in like I was playing my first and last game in the NRL. Our bench offered...

wait till Naden comes on

lack aggression and contact like i have been saying. You come out of HT in front. The team that starts the 2nd half on the front foot with intent usually changes the game and takes control.....this is not the Tigers way.
