Agree. Twal is not the guy you want on the park in the last 20min regardless of the scoreline.

Knowledge is useless unless you share it Vic.

We are also desperately in need of on field leadership, a clutch player who can grab the win in a tight game. Like AD has done a couple of times. The last few games of the season under BQM have seen us either lose 2 or 3, or have 50 or 60 points put on us. Last seasons Titans game was there to...

Shaun is interim CEO which gives an indication that the debenture holders could be calling the shots. What could go wrong, right? It depends on the wording of the contract and how strong it is once it’s scrapped? I’ve read somewhere stating the club can’t re-sign Bula for “less than $900k”. But...

Yep, shouldn’t be that hard. So the sticking point must be money or yearly get out clauses? Possibly both? As we get closer to May, should have some clarity?

As I understand the Bula situation, he is contracted until the end of 2026. WT have an option to sign Bula on $900k for 2027, which expires mid May 2026. If WT don’t take up this option it triggers a Bula option to extend for 2027 at $800k. If both options are declined then Bula is a free agent...

We can’t seem to catch a break? Maintain some momentum. Always seems to be a change in direction. Even when we had a 5 year plan which was centred around a coaching succession plan we got a spoon and sacked a coach with the 5 year plan becoming a 4 then a 3 year plan until it disappeared into...

As hard as it is to understand, some people find joy in the suffering of Tigers fans. Who gets on here days after the purging of WT board and pens 200 posts in support of the Debenture holders, and praising their good work? Debenture holder? SPD? or both? Either way the fans didn’t create this mess.

How long do you suppose Shaun has in the job? I think it’s highly likely Denny and his mates are looking around for his replacement as we speak?

Luke Brooks , not many players can leave Tigers and get a pay rise, had this to say before walking away with his bbq. “There’s always something happening here” In 2025, the Holman Barnes Group (HBG), majority owners of the Wests Tigers NRL club, faced severe criticism and regulatory scrutiny...

The most obvious area of improvement I noticed was the increase in discretionary effort, the 3rd man in a tackle, the support of a ball carrier, the eagerness to defend a teammates mistake etc. those effort areas that transform the 17 into a team. Benji may be a novice coach but he has achieved...

The board

Makasini is a massive improvement but he’s only one player.

Totally evescerated.

I think ‘abject failure’ is a little too harsh because they have had some successes. Such as, hiring a CEO with a track record of success, avoiding a consecutive 4th spoon, installing an independent WT board which produced a profit. Ok sure, all short lived but it gave the positive poly...

Try seeing it as constructive criticism, it makes the world of difference. Positivity? Or continual acceptance of mediocrity?

How do you know this? Did you take a poll or do you know that the board members avoid contact with the players? Are you suggesting that a players introduction to the club does not include a description of who’s who in the zoo? Pretty much the whole country knows who they are, but the players...

Just started on never never. A gift from my daughter.

And that my friend is the biggest issue we have, which destroys their momentum and halts progress. The nutters at the top can earn the respect they keep demanding when they start valuing ideas more than personalities. Any top operator will find it tough going in this sort of culture. There was...

If we consider failure not being successful, not achieving desired outcomes as we see them, then it’s not a stretch to say everyone at the club during the last decade has failed. I would rather have Richo back with the club miraculously transformed into a meritocracy, but neither of those things...
