It is always easy in hindsight to pick the better players. However before the season starts, who would you prefer to have in the Wests Tigers team (current vs former players at similar stage of their careers))? And yes I know some would have preferred to have all of them. Moses vs. Te Maire...

There has been a lot said of the Wests Tigers having the best crop of young players. Does everyone agree? We do potentially have a very good team, however potential is not always realized. There is a big risk of relying too heavily on too many younger players. Many of our players Brooks, Moses...

Recruitment & retention always creates much debate and it is always easy in hindsight to predict which players to keep at the club and which to let go. At the time many were happy to see Fifita go, while some thought Dean Collis would come good. Now here is our chance to predict what will...

Is it important to win your 1st game of the Year? Based on this years results I would rather have lost the 1st Round. A lot of the teams that were talked up after winning their first game have had terrible seasons. Parramatta beat the Warriors in NZ. Stephen Kearney had turned Parramatta into...

Hi All, I have been a regular reader for a while. Finally got around to having my first rant about my opinions on a few issues. Robbie Farah – nowhere near as effective as previous seasons. He is rarely running out of dummy half (except when looking for a penalty). His decision making and...
