It turns out that Muscle Meals direct has become a WT sponsor. I went on their site and saw Marty Taupau is one of their main features. https://www.musclemealsdirect.com.au/ I don't get why more nutrition focus products don't sponsor league teams. If this stuff makes Taupau's we should order...

Ok you have 4 ideas to pick from: 5 Good players, with the other 12 Mediocre at best. 3 good, 6 above average, the other 8 mediocre. 13 Above average players. Everyone else Reserve grade. The big 17. \ \ Curious. As I noticed that Every team seems to do it differently. Easts seem to pick 5...

Ok, Cleary has left, McGuire comes in. Ryan and Paul in. Sue, Grant, Naiqama and Lolohea out. \ \ Are we making the 8, what's your guess. Yes or No? My guess, We will be 7th-8th. I had imagined that we could push to 6th but doubt it. I am imaging the Warriors tanking without Johnson, St George...

Hey everyone Anyone else glad to see the tigers return to their usual old form? https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/07/01/match-highlights-wests-tigers-v-titans–-round-16-2018/ Looking at this highlight real, it looked like we would score 28 points and the Titans would score 30\. Except we botched...

https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/tedesco-s-origin-blinder-worth-the-weight-20180609-p4zkkg.html Tedesco’s Origin blinder worth the weight For Jake Trbojevic it meant a few secret sauna sessions. For James Tedesco it was jibes from the coaching staff that he needed to drop a couple of kilos...

It was good to see Game 1 and good to see the Blues get a win. But one thing I noticed. Nearly every time I saw NSW get tackled, they made contact and they player virtually stopped. Only Jake Trebvovovic seemed to make a little dent. While when Queensland hit the NSW defensive line. Once the...

Yep, Brad Fitler. "Peachey's secret dummy-half sessions give Blues extra strike" Glad you're keeping that secret tight. https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/06/02/tyrone-peacheys-secret-dummy-half-sessions-give-nsw-blues-extra-strike/

I was looking at NRL.com and our stats. essentially we don't rate. https://www.nrl.com/stats/ For individual: We should have players rating higher as a top 4 team. Brooks is in the top 5 for a few categories, Thompson for 1 as well as Marsters. But the only individual category we rate first in...

https://www.nrl.com/stats/ As a top 4 team, we don't feature on individual levels. Luke Brooks is in the top 3 line engagers, 1 40/20 and 4th in offloads. Esan Marsters is in the top 3 for offloads. Benji is the 5th most for kick meters. Corey Thompson is 4th for kick returns. The only area we...

How did we beat the storm on a field goal? We got two tries to one, naturally the storm get two penalties close to the uprights. With Cameron Smith and others, Marshall puts in the field goal and gets it. Just wow. Almost thought Brodie Croft sealed our fate. Had he passed backwards could...

I'm asking outside of the Brooks thread. Because it may get dwarfed there. But what is Luke Brooks best position? Five Eight, Fullback, Halfback, Hooker or something else. So Brooks's strengths are: He has a good running speed. He can pass. high try assists and tries. His weaknesses: Bad 5th...

Should we be boycotting Sponsors of Western Sydney Giants? I only say this as I finally changed my superannuation. My last super place sponsored the GWSGiants and I made it my mission to get out of there. 5 years later, well they obviously changed sponsors...

Something I noticed. Two teams were clearly rebuilding at the end of 2017, the Tigers and the Knights. The Tigers really recruited young guns. We have signed many Junior faces like Tui, twal, etc. When we have signed older players, not many are over 30\. I think Chris McQueen is our oldest next...

Why are the Roosters going for Cronk? Then I have to look at the competition, why would Manly!!?? want Cronk? They have DCE locked down for 12 years, Unless they punt Green and move DCE to 5/8 why would they want Cronk. Parramatta makes sense, you punt Norman and partner Moses with Cronk. Even...

Has anyone else noticed this? bigsiro's picture, look at the person on the left. http://www.weststigersforum.com/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1676 Now look at Stryker's profile picture. http://www.weststigersforum.com/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=431 It took a bit of research, but I...

Anyone hear Brad Arthur talk about Parramatta on MMM recently? I was really impressed. He actually gave real answers. i.e. why was Jennings switched from left to right. Because we found we were leaking points heavily on the right. How do you feel about your halves, they had a great game. They...

Do we need a wing coach? This is in response to the idea of a halves coach. The idea of getting a position coach is to get the most out of the position. So a halves coach would turn our halves from average/poor (Brooks) into better and help them gell together. The idea is to get the halves...
