You’d be a hoot to work with :)

He needs to play finals in 26 and 27, and finish in or around the 8 this year. You don’t do that by moving on your best player to accommodate a promising but very green up and comer.

He probably sees himself as a starting quality hooker in 2026, and that won’t happen while we have Api, certainly not next season and probably the one after. Rather than lose him altogether, why not consider a Harry Grant type scenario. Loan him to another club for a season to get him regular...

Ryan Matterson, Michael Chee Cam, Zane Musgrove…

Think I’d start Sione and keep Hunt on bench.

If Api is gassed, maybe Mason jumps into dummy half for a spell, Naden comes on at 5/8 or Douhie slots in at 5/8 and Naden into the centres. Not saying I like it, but no point having Naden on the bench if you don’t use him.

I’m no coach or expert, but to my untrained eye the team seems to use the same tactics and game plan every week regardless of who we are playing. I get that all teams have a style and an overall template for how they want to play, but surely the game plan needs to adapt each week based on...

Melbourne just pick the best player and make sure the next man up is ready to do the job when called upon. One of their greatest strengths as an organization is the ability to retain first grade quality players across the whole Top 30 and convince 13 of these guys every week that playing cup for...

It wasn’t Daley’s media role that disqualified him, it was his employment with a gambling related organization. But your point is still valid, it’s a conflict of interest.

The only time Moses will not sh1t on the club from a height is if he has one of his coaches installed there. Let’s hope the administrators are smart enough to never let that happen. You have to deal with him as it relates to his players currently at the club that we want to keep (Bula for...

Wouldn’t count on it. Isaac’s happy to use the club to get his client an NRL start, and as soon as they are established, regular first graders he shops them to other clubs. We are merely the host organism for his parasitic offspring. His larvae feed on our club until there is nothing left to be...

Did he pull his hammy again…

Sharks.

Agree but he’s got to get and stay on the paddock. If he only plays a handful of games over the rest of the season it kinda forces the clubs hand to sign another half.

Funny that. A few people were cracking it when Talau first went to Manly and Junior Tupou went to the Dolphins that we were losing squad strength. Both currently playing reserve grade at their new clubs. On another cheery ex Tiger note, Ice might be about to pick up yet another wooden spoon!

Every way you cut it, this looks bad for Wests Tigers. We have a player on a long term contract, in a key spine role, on a cheap contract, who wants out and has at least two other clubs who want to sign him. And despite all of this, the best we can do is get a $165k transfer fee! No player swap...

Gus is employed by Bulldogs and Ch 9. He has no obligation to anyone beyond that. Don’t blame Gus for getting his man. Be envious that we can’t seem to do this ourselves as a club.

Best fullback of the 80’s, daylight second.

Maybe one at Port Macquarie…

Legend has it used to wait an hour after training for the shift change on the bridge toll to avoid the $1.20 toll. Blocker tells that story.
