    Unpopular view, but I reckon we are going Ok

    I agree with Goose. And to add fuel to the fire, this team smacks of a side that could catch form if confidence builds, and ride an unexpected wave during the season. They are not as far away as some would believe. The issues are mostly correctable, both with training & naturally. Personal...

    Changes need to be made

    People calling for changes are now targetting Rankin, like it's that side of the field that is leaking points. The Tigers are scoring enough points. They need to come up with a better balance with defence. JAC does not offer that. I'd like to see more from Rankin in his running game, but I'm...

    Technology / Social Decline

    That's not true. Unemployment in Australia isn't rising is conjunction with the rate of technological advancement. For every cashier needing to find new work there is 5 new people building the replacement machines..

    Technology / Social Decline

    It's easy to blame technology, but we had technology growing up that was advanced to what our parents have, and they gave us the same argument we are now giving the kids of today. the world is constantly changing. Technology is just a by-product of increased intelligence & advances through the...

    We are in the stats, why are we 2/5?

    There is a lot of shared blame for coaches & players, to be honest. But, at the same time, the Tigers are not that far away from being 5-0, really. They have been competitive in every game, even the Titans in the 1st half. there are some on here who want to point out that the defence is worse...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    Ok, I see what you are saying. And I don't think the thread needs to descend into a Robbie vs JT thread again, :slight_smile: , but I'll say that I'm not sure that JT wasn't crucified a little unfairly in a trial by media, where anything he said was slanted against him while everything Robbie...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    I'd agree that Edwards will be a boost, but he's returning from injury, and the team was already carrying Farah's return from injury. You have to have fit players. Chee Kam is board superstar, but as yet hasn't actually proven anything. I'm interested to see what he offers, but he might not be...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    What is that based on? From what I see, the team is responding to his defensive mantra. Is it communicating to the media you are talking about?

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    But not because he was using 52 hookers. Is there a better option in the State Cup? Can we just keep inserting kids into the line-up & expect results to come?

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    And yet, his record was better than Tim Sheens first year record. Context is more than final finishing positions & for & against. This is a team cobbled together on a shoestring, forced to play young guys who may or may not be ready for 1st grade, and with an injection of guys released from...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    then you must have glossed over the "Taylor doesn't understand we need to score more than the opposition" posts that are in this very thread. I didn't defend his bench selections, although I'm sure if Farah had started, Halatau was a designated 2nd rower & Cherrington on the Bench we would...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    Illogical is probably the way I'd describe it too. There are just some things said about him that leave me staring at the screen wondering if people ACTUALLY believe what they are typing. I mean, really, someone questioned if JT understands that to win we need more points than the opposition...

    High-scoring wins didn't help us: Taylor

    Just putting this out there.. 2003, Tigers hired Tim Sheens. He had a 29% winning record in 2003\. 7 wins. In 2004, 10 wins & a 41% winning record. Then in 2005, won a premiership. JT in 2015 had 10 wins & a 38% win record. He's 50% this season so far. I'm not suggesting JT is ahead of...

    WESTS Tigers Team V Parramatta

    Of course, the Manly game goes completely against your theory. As does coming back to secure the win against the Warriors after they would have lost that game last year..

    WESTS Tigers Team V Parramatta

    I hadn't realised Chee Kam was actually Sonny Bill Mark II… Alioi will probably play a little more backrow. He plays all forward positions outside of hooker. And it wouldn't surprise me to see Farah & Cherrington on the field at the same time. People are talking like it's been our wide...

    Is fitness a part of the problem ?

    Sack him! Make Farah captain! Tigers never get beaten with Farah as captain….

    THUD

    No worries Captain Overreaction. Now Woods is bludging as well as a bad captain. At least the board has moved on from Taylor as the whipping boy.

    THUD

    Seriously, some fans on here are gold. Wanting to replace Woods as captain? We had 2 games where the team fights back to win, games the Tigers would have lost last year. Nobody got on Woods' wagon & praised him for rallying the team to fight back. We lose one game, and he should be gone for...

    Taupau the coward?

    Besides, in the wash-up, his little stick at Moses won't match up with the ribbing he would have gotten from the hit Nofa put on him. Little winger owned big tough Marty.
