Just asking, you know for a friend?? Say you have 1 contract that is for 1.5M (total) and it's in... I don't know NSW. And another that's 500k (unsure if for entire year, or both years??), in your state where your family have recently moved too.... Would you, turn down 500k? (or more)?

either from NSW or QLD, who would you like to hire most: (I am going to leave Payne Haas out. I think he is just too big a gun/freak, he would automatically get picked.)

Hey mods... I took a quick look and don't get this. Why is round 9 vs Dragons locked? https://weststigersforum.com/threads/round-9-vs-dragons.36464/page-10 I see a discussion around the mighty Datsun 120y (my grandma had a dark blue 120y hatch and man it had it's own awesomeness too it.) I...

I am just thinking about the Galvin situation. So we sponsor Galvin, Latu and a bunch of others in their development. We pay 500k to get Sullivan here for 4 years as well, which is a lot of sunken cost. The solution: Buy Luai at 1.2M Look I get if the next Nathan Cleary walks into the...

Just a little weird. I see we won 30-18, but we have on the ladder listed the game as "Drawn" on NRL.com. Looks like our for/against wasn't updated since playing the knights either. I suspect their scorekeeper saw an 18-18 score and went home, or who knows.

https://www.nrl.com/draw/nrl-premiership/2025/round-1/wests-tigers-v-knights Looking at the stats, we actually did pretty well. One item we really lost out on is missed tackles. 51 to 26 from Newcastle. At the back half of the game we don't shutdown the knights attack and that is what really...

Wow looking at the team lists. Very lop sided this year. Expect the Maori to win, the question is the margin. https://www.nrl.com/news/2025/02/11/harvey-norman-all-stars-2025-team-lists/ That said, who cares. It's usually a great game and one to watch for the tries and excitement.

Come one, come all. Lets see your bold predictions for 2025. Post them here and let us judge.

I have been thinking about our bench rotation. Really between teams, 1-13 is pretty settled and people play the same roles. Some teams ride with 4 forwards/second row. some teams ride with 2 props in reserve. What do people think works for us and the team we have?

So now that season 2024 is over for the WT. Who are you going for in the finals? Does Cheering for Teddy and Easts make you glad? How about Brooks and the Eagles? How about a Vomit Bag?? Want to see Penrith do a 4-peet? Want to see Phil Gould smile with Dog success? Who are you going to be...

We were established when

Make tries 5 points instead of 4. Keep converted tries at 6 points, i.e. the conversion is worth +1 point only, not +2. With the Bulldogs beating Cronulla 2 tries to 3, I am totally sick of it. I know this happened to us a few times too. A try should be worth 5 points, not 4. A converted...

Just wondering if anyone has any in sight into our training and training rageme? I keep thinking about our team, and IMHO we just still seem soft. I think as a club we haven't invested enough in training. Although I can remember Siro leading the forward pack training at one point and really...

Been thinking about this a lot. So Moneyball is the idea of picking players who are statistically able to offer better value for the team then their monetary value. Done out of the Athletic Baseball club, they got tired of being outbid by the larger teams. So they tried something different...

https://www.nrlshop.com/collections/state-of-origin?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WK18_StateOfOriginJerseySolus_010524&lid=ylqctcszbpt5 NSW Jersey looks pathetic. Tooheys your logo sucks. What on earth is Westpac doing trying to sponsor both teams. Were just going to have a...

Curious what people expect for 2024 Do we see us making the 8? I can see us pushing around the 12th-14th mark. Yet the competition is fearce. If Benji gets 16th, is this a success? If we don't play finals are we a failure? Stump up and make some predictions...

Time for a put up or shut up. Aiden Sezer Are you a Hater? Hate the fact that we have signed him OR a fan? Was it the right decision or wrong one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aidan_Sezer Ill try to keep this updated and if you nag me enough I will update the list below. 2024 we can judge...

This ain't about the referendum, but the great Aboriginal players that have played our game and played for our club. I just want to recognise Aboriginal players and say thank you. Rugby League is a far better game with them and kudos to them for making our game so entertaining. There is a lot...

A lot of Ex tigers, on the bench of the grand final. Luke Garner got a spot. https://www.nrl.com/draw/nrl-premiership/2023/grand-final/game-1/ RESERVES TyronePeachey PLAYER STATUS:FIELD 18 REPLACEMENT CoreyOates PLAYER STATUS:FIELD MatthewEisenhuth PLAYER STATUS:FIELD 19 RESERVE...
