Something Boyd said about Raudonikas should be true still about WT now: Les Boyd has paid tribute to his late mate Tommy Raudonikis, revealing the origins of the iconic Western Suburbs Magpies face-slapping warm-up. Boyd appeared on NRL 360 on Fox League in a special tribute show to the former...

Know there was an old thread on this but can't find it. Is there any update news on Packer and his concussion headaches?

Wasn't able to see the game yet on video and he didn't get mention in news items or here but his did In Jennings go? He looks to have trimmed down and improved fitness but no idea ok if it has helped on field performance. I'd love for him to improve and offer some real competition for wing...

I was concerned in the Q&A where they said that last season it was decided to basically rest Packer and get his injuries fixed that he had been carrying. (paraphrasing there gang, do don't be too harsh). No as far as I can recall there was very little of Packer being out injured on the club...

I get the feeling Clark and Eisenhuth who are both coming off contract seasons end will be competing for the same slot in the 30 squad and one will go. What are peoples feelings on both? Who can better be the workhorse forward for WT? Neither will ever be superstars, but...

Hi Guys I noticed a Reynolds article behind the D.T paywall. Can anybody access and share? I suspect from the wording he is looking at staying at WT and doing the switch to hooker in absence of Liddle. Darn it if we are stuck with him (and Packer) until end of 2021 at $750k a season- thanks...

Looks like his work outside the rugby league field is bearing fruit. Good luck to you Chris and congrats for always being a WT legend. You have truely bled for WT. https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/11/07/chris-lawrences-silver-linings-playbook/

Ive been noting for some time that we seem to have a less than stellar record when it comes to recruitment and retention, junior development, coaching support staff ie reserve and junior grades and medical staff- who can forget the Dr Krah (?) for WT who whenever he seemed to treat a player...

Hi Mods. Is it possible to create a standing thread on the general salary cap within the NRL where we can put information on the cap in general and clubs working (or not working) within it? I'm also wondering about another standing thread where we can put what we think the WT players are on...

If Farah does not take up his post retirement position at WT as proffered by Pascoe that had us fined and financially penalised for 2 seasons. Do we sue the NRL to retrieve the financial penalty?

Have to say that despite the expected angst, mine included, WT are in the place we expected them to be with any new coach. * A player roster that does not suit his style and demands of players * Many of these unsuited players on extended contracts, where value and length of contract...

I'm not really sure where to place this in terms of the threads but here goes: Just to put into context our never ending discussions on Brooks and halfback and what to do, I’ve trolled through records and come up with some relatively recent WT history with halfbacks and their success rate with...
