    Taupau the coward?

    Meh. We applauded it mostly when he was with us. It looks more like a few fans that hold a grudge he wanted out. Big deal. It was nothing. Hardly connected. And Moses had been swinging his arms around Tapau in the tackle anyway. He's a big guy that likes to try & intimidate. If a small guy...

    I see another club benefits from the WTs...

    Sometimes, good players move on. It happens. Looks like he has talent. But the Tigers have benefited from picking up young players from other clubs & I don't hear our fans feeling sorry for the club they come from. That's life.

    Farah's return timely for Tigers

    No doubt they are a good team. But it'll come down to momentum & dominance around the ruck. Who is faster in the play of the ball? Tigers seem to be right on that with Woods, Grant & Sue, and to a lesser degree Lawrence. If they can keep eating up metres through hard running & fast play of the...

    Wests Tigers shake off 'soft' tag..

    Errors killed them on Saturday night. If they cut the errors in half, they dominate the Titans. Same could be said for the previous 2 games. Mental laspses. It's a sign of a young, developing team. If they are still playing like this midway through the year, I'll be disappointed. But right...

    Chee Kam

    That's quite possible. And don't get me wrong, I'd look forward to seeing what he can do. I just don't know if the level of 'belief' in him is realistic at this stage. He's really unproven through 3 clubs now. Hopefully he can come in & have an impact.

    Farah's return timely for Tigers

    Like many of the guys that are coming through, Cherrington will develop over the next year or two. There's a lot to work with there. Farah coming back this week is good. This is a big game for the Tigers. Not necessarily the result, but certainly the response to Saturday night's performance...

    Lovett

    People are looking for reasons to hate Lovett now. He was learning last year & it showed in some games. But, he was nowhere near as bad as some want to make out. this year there is improved movement with & without the ball. The Tigers forwards have improved dramatically in the last 12 months...

    Chee Kam

    I understand that. But that's hardly earning a start. It's not like he was tearing it up in the trials. We've annointed him a 1st grade spot based on the fact he's played a few games for Manly. Halatau has 'earned' a start if Lawrence is out. Farah back, Halatau to the backrow.

    Chee Kam

    How has Chee Kam earned a start? What has he done to earn a start?

    Chee Kam

    One loss in & calls for changes come flooding in. Lovett has performed pretty well so far this season. And the Tigers forwards have, by & large, been far improved on what was offered last season. Chee Kam needs to win a spot through whatever time he gets on the field, but more likely in...

    Anyone watching games and thinking....

    Prediction- if I get 'ahead of myself', get too excited & predict the Tigers will go on and 'be like 2005', it will make… zero difference to the actual outcome of the season. If a forum posters thoughts are the reason the Tigers drop the next 24 games this season, the club has massive...

    Tim Grant

    Yep, Grant has been excellent. It's the consistancy of his play & the speed he goes at that impresses me. Also, for such a lanky guy, his mobility in defence seems an upgrade on what Keith used to offer.

    How good is it to see....

    If you go back over last season, pretty sure you'll find that there was a lot of effort from the players despite the results. Yes, there were a couple of guys playing as if they were not 100% happy with things, but by & large, the squad didn't just turn it in as they had previous seasons. This...

    Woods has backing of senior Tigers

    Would have been an awesome story if it was "Woods doesn't have backing of senior players". But, as it stands, it's kind of one of those articles that really has no purpose. Oh, so the team are backing the captain. Cool. Why is that a story??

    Hurrell on the move?

    Hurrell is an inconsistant footballer, playing on an inconsistant team. And they dropped him for Ayshford. That tells me that he isn't positively contributing to the consistancy level of that team. And that is a bit of a worry, when you know you'd have to pay him pretty well…

    Anasta grub

    I'm not sure what people were expecting from Anasta in his time here. He clearly wasn't signed in his prime, and for that- you can't actually blame him for some decline in his ability. But in his 1st season he was horribly miscast, playing 2nd Row for a aging 5/8… what was the thinking there...

    Big name player in trouble

    I'll say this- the NRL are not responsible for personal behaviour away from football related events. Rehab is absolutely the right course of action. Not only does it give the individual the chance to redeem himself, it also makes the NRL look like an organisation that has it's employees best...

    Big name player in trouble

    Mate, there is a massive difference between what Pearce has done & what Hopoate did. Hopoate was guilty of acts on the field of play. Pearce was guilty of acting like a tool away from the field, in what would have been privacy had it not been filmed & then given to the media. It's not a good...

    No back-up needed for Cherrington...

    I'm a genious. Or I'm Jason Taylor. In which case, many of you believe I'm Satan. Or just an idiot or something. I'll be ringing in to defend myself later..

    Players the tigers should be wary of

    I'll be pretty worried if I see SBW at the game. Unless it means he's joining the Tigers. At which point I'll be more concerned that Hell froze over.
