    When the going gets tough...

    We don't show up. Seems to me, looking at the game last night, that as long as Penrith played within themselves, and up until half time, we were in it. However, 5m in the second hald and it was obvious that Penrith had gone up a gear and we had no idea on how to control the game. This is where...

    Hopeful despair ...

    We supporters have been, since 2005, in a state of hopeful despair. A state where one may feel hopeless or deeply discouraged about a situation, but still clings to the possibility of a positive outcome. That's us, isn't it? Picture the last game against the cows. Anyone looking at the result...

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/neilsahota/2024/02/28/the-evolution-of-rugby-a-journey-into-the-future-with-ai/ Interesting article (and please refrain from the obvious jokes, IF you can )... ;-) Seems like it is being applied across performance, health, even impacting scouting and recruitment...

    The ONE difference..

    Where Souths had their chances, they took them. Where we had our (multiple) chances, we didn't. Had no idea, really. Momumental performance by Api - as for the rest, including a social media aficionado and a would be soon to depart superstar, I draw a veil. They huffed and puffed but...

    Coaching ranks

    Can we lok at upcoming / younger coaches and see them as future winners or shapers of the game, in the sense of Gibson, or Warren Ryan? Consider this crop: Brad Arthur; Dean Young; Trent Barrett; Ben Hornby; Kevin Walters; Jason Demetriou ... most first grade coaches that have failed to make a...

    Luai and the drop out kick

    Apologies if it has been covered already, but when it comes to drop out kicks, I am not sure why he pushes the envelope as much as he does. Ultimately it is a risky play, if not timed perfectly. If it is a ploy to slow the play down / organize the defence, then I don't know what an extra...

    Another nail biter..

    A positive is that in recent years, a game like this would have most probably got away from us. Credit to the playing group for holding firm. However, in the second half, it is true to say that we went back in our shell and really didn't show much entrepreneurship with the ball. The Dragons were...

    Enough said...!

    What a win, but boys, we arent't young men / women anymore!! (Well, according to the poll...)

    Should he stay or should he go?

    The ultimate poll!!

    Mental toughness

    I am sure it is a personal thing when I watch the Tigers...however, as bad as Newcastle was, up until the last 10m, I had this gut feeling that, had the Knight crossed earlier in the second half, a few heads would have gone down, even if up by 16-20 points, and could have been a lot tougher for...

    Tom Gilbert...

    this is one is for you!! :cool: Solid performance, with a bit more control of our sets close to the line, we may be on the verge of something good. Bring on the Warriors!!

    It's either a glass half full...or half empty

    Really depends on how you look at it, but for a team to score only a single try, it is a concern, given we weren't playing an inpenetrable defence. The return of Api will help. Our million dollar man will need time to settle in, but he really needs to do this sooner rather than later. But not...

    But now can't stand the sight of it? (Only a few more weeks and we can get back to the footy ;-) )

    Contact sports and risk

    Do we tear out the ‘soul of the game’ in the name of safety? Do these sports pose such a considerable danger that the only option is not to play at all? Or do we allow those athletes who choose to embark on these careers to take risks, and if we ‘don’t like it, stop watching’? Should we put...

    First car ever owned?

    Similar to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMC_ADO16#/media/File:1970_Morris_1100_Mk_2.jpg Gee, I sure wish I had the hindsight to have kept... In those days, car yards along Parramatta Road were full of dealers. Usually, I'd be heading straight to the back, where the models I could afford...

    TV series that you couldn't miss...(not Netflix)

    Going a little back in time here, folks, before Netflix was a thing... Hard for me to go past The Wonder Years. "The greatest Boomer nostalgia project of them all, before Boomer nostalgia threatened to overwhelm the entire world." and "Hill St Blues" - the cop show that started it all, IMHO...

    A pack of Tigers? A group of Tigers?

    A group of tigers can be called a 'streak' or an 'ambush' of tigers. Uhm...Can't say I have ever seen it described this way, but to quote many radio jocks "Our listeners (or readers in this case) are our greatest researchers... Presumably, as Tigers are somewhat solitary in nature, the...

    Cold Chisel

    Terrific concert last night. Considering some of the lads are in their 70s, the band sounded as good as ever with Ian Moss showing some terrific guitart playing and singing some of his (great) signature songs. One to rememeber, and well done on 50 years of touring! (PS not affiliated with the...
