I'm not quite sure about this first bit of the narrative? Tigers history is unfortunately full of players underperforming, walking out or falling foul of the coach. Benji walked out on Potter Farah got offside with Taylor Moses got off the Ivan Cleary bus, followed by Tedesco and Woods Nofo...

I think we will score a few tries against the Roosters. Unfortunately I think they will score more than a few.

Oh not directly after the Warriors match, that November. Otherwise yeah it would have been a weird night to process.

Avian flu! And they forfeit.

It's because of the context. A hard fought loss is not the worst but it bites extra hard on the back of 7 uglier losses.

My son has never seen Tigers play Finals footy. Welcome to the shit show young lad.

Dragons have 4 wins all season and two against us. At least we normally would have beaten the wooden spooners on our way to a 13th or 14th finish in the past.

I would have said it's very Wests Tigers for over 20 years.

Boring, can you guys do the Benji pile on in the Benji thread. Like he's some kind of protected species, it's a silly and unrealistic discussion.

I think the main problem is, apart from the pile on for Benji right now, that he's far from alone in these results as Tigers coaches go. I see all these comments above "oh if only we give Brad Arthur a go" or "Holbrook has done wonders with Newcastle this year". Yeah well Madge Maguire won a...

I sure as hell Saukuru doesn't miss any Makasini-type tackles this weekend, otherwise who are we going to dump/promote next?

Best name for quite a while, at least

Sorry can someone explain to me how this thread reached 7 pages? Did anything apart from a hoax happen?

You need to take your Tigers glasses off. Dragons have made the Finals twice in the last 15 years. They have nearly as many problems as Tigers. They've won 3 matches all season and you are tipping them to go on a 5 game winning streak and reel in the Tigers?

and his other good mate Taxo Exemptionisi

If anything, the Roosters started to become over-reliant on Tedesco, same as Tigers did. Up to end of 2025 the Roosters have generally been on the downturn since Tedesco joined, as much as you can call it that. 2026 may be an uptick again. Always playing finals but being generally less...

Sorry I am going to join the push-back on your revisionist baloney. All your comments about Tedesco are myopic. It's long. Firstly Tedesco was at Tigers 6 seasons, not 5 minutes. The year he debuted (2012) was the year after we made the finals twice in a row and should have won the comp again...

Yes but if you are defensively exposed in reserve grade, you will be torn to shreds in first grade. Surely they have to be decent in reserves first?

Yeah I think it's one of the ones you don't have a choice but to pull out the stops to retain him. Also we know what he's capable of, it's not a speculative signing. Should be a pillar of our first-choice team.
