Wait! You mean "the press" are blaming JT & saying the players hate the coach? Unbelievable! If only it wasn't the same story they released last season. And the season before… As far as I can tell the stampede to leave the club stops at 1. And Manly, I'm sure, are not crying poor. The...

I've not heard those rumblings from anywhere but on here though.

I'm not sure about that mate. Money rules. I do laugh when people have said Taupau should be 'loyal' to the Tigers, or 'honour his contract'. Please. Marty left his junior club for a chance at 1st grade here. Did he magically develop loyalty in 2 years? And would you, or anyone else, stay in...

While we all want to see results on the field, realistically you have to take into account a few more details. Clearly the board feel that there is a salary cap issue that the previous board either overlooked or were unable to assess. There seems to be a clear directive from the top down to...

I guess we will find out if those Ipswich Jets guys are really up to NRL standard now..

I think if you look for a comparison, Ken Nagas is a great one. That's about as close as you get with comparisons on this bloke. Hope he is half as good! (or better, I guess..)

I don't know about you- but if I'm working with Tigers Media Relations, I'm not putting Farah into any ad campaigns either. Not right now. If he sticks around, the club using him for advertising looks hipocritical, if he leaves- they have to re-do everything. So leaving him out of advertising...

Any opportunity to bag the Tigers & Taylor- some will jump all over. Unfortunately in this case- Peters has shown a bit of ability in what he does, putting paid to the early critisism. And if he's bringing some of those Souths juniors over- happy days.

Funny thing about Buchanan is that he made the NSW Under 21 side not that long ago- somebody had a wrap on him. I met him in the hotel the team stayed at in Brisbane- nice guy. Comes across much smarter than I thought he would. I agree he's a depth signing at this point, but this is a guy that...

I can't see any of these guys coming back to haunt us much in the future.

Regardless of how it ended, and whatever we perceive the club to be now- Tim Sheens & the staff he introduced, the schemes & structures he introduced, the links to good schools & juniors- that is all here because of him. Yes, the last couple of years were rough. He never recovered from losing...

To be fair- this is 2 arguments- would THIS Ipswich side beat NRL teams, or would this Ipswich side's style of play work? The team would likely be thumped by NRL quality teams. Just the hard truth of it. Could the style of play work? Why not? Given the right types of players & the right...

Come on- really? \ \ Bad enough that Australia has gone all "Nanny State"- surely someone can say something on a message board without it being twisted into some kind of moral high ground. He clearly didn't say it to denigrate cancer in any way. I have 'ghost' in my screen name- am I making...

Anyone else find it funny that in the two teams that have an emphasis on structure & discipline, Blair plays well (Brisbane, Melbourne), but in the ad-lib, fling the ball about club Wests Tigers, he gets lost? I'd say, on evidence, it's the way these teams play that dictates his effectiveness.

That would be Joel Edwards' twin brother… oops...

I actually expect this signing to help Soaso Sue develop too- in my opinion, Sue is the kind of forward the Tigers should build around- while not consistant, he's powerful & can hit. Just have to get that consistancy with him. Combined with Thompson, and yes- Docker would be good too- the Tigers...

Can't see why having 2 QLD teams in the GF changes if people want to watch or not. Would you watch a Melbourne vs Manly GF? Everyones hates Manly, but it would put a Sydney team in it. Cowboys & Broncos have played good football. They both deserve to be there. Good for them & their fans. Hope...

I'm not a JT basher, but given the way people have carried on about 'how bad he is'- this made me laugh.

I do laugh at the sudden influx of NRL players feeling they could give the NFL a go. Hayne was an 'elite' level NRL player, and he's just made it onto the 53 man squad of a pretty poor team. As a returner (and occasional RB- must be said, that's above expectation). Now Dugan, Tapau etc think...

Pretty tough defender, which this team could use- particularly if he can play serious minutes. Also versatile enough to cover across the forward pack. Added experience in there too for a young team. Ok, so it's not Gareth Ellis, but these types of players make the squad stronger. I'm betting...
