I have read with interest people's thoughts on why we've been falling down after a great start to the year. I agree that the continued selection of Braith (and others) creates head scratching moments but, to me, it's fairly simple… When we started the year, we had a very strong squad to pick...

I was watching a footy show on Fox a month or so ago (sorry, can't remember which one) and it had Gordon Tallis talking to JT. His advice was… "Just remember, your manager works for you. Not the other way around. YOU tell HIM where you want to play, and it's his job to get you the best money...

After the great start we've had this year, I was wondering if anyone has re-assessed their expectations for the team in 2014? Prior to the start of the year, a lot here were saying improvement would be great, with a shot at the top 8 in 2015… I think sitting third on the table after round 6 has...

Trying to decide who to go for in the grand final is like voting in the Federal Election… It's a case of who do I hate less???

Not sure if anyone else heard the interview, but Braith was on 2MMM this morning around 7:40\. Had a chat with the Grill team. Generally he said: - Really enjoying the change and new challenge at the Tigers. - Loving working under Mick Potter. - Potter has instilled an ethic of hard work and...

For what it's worth, I thought I'd throw my 2c in regarding how the last tackle should be played this season. If we are behind going into the last 10-15 minutes, Benji should be the go to man on the 6th. He can create the points. However… If we are in front heading into the last part of the...

Saturday night showed to me that we need to break up the "Sheens/Marshall Mutual Admiration Society". If ever there was a need to hook a player, it was Benji on Saturday night. Not for the whole game, just for ten minutes or so to give him the message to pull his head in. Benji made two...

So, if it comes down to our last game… Will Robbie play Vs Melbourne?

Thanks to the Eels beating the Sharks tonight, the Tigers are now in the top 4… A great result at this point given our poor start to the year! :sign:

Sorry guys didnt realise there was already a thread. Mods can you lock this?

As the title says, I'm just so over this. It hurts so much. Sure, we've competed the last couple of weeks but we're still 1:5 I couldn't even watch tonight. I didn't watch a minute because I couldn't bear to see us lose again… my plan was to get the score at full time and, if we'd won, watch...

Since Friday night I have not subjected myself to any media reports about the game. I haven't watched a news report. I haven't picked up a newspaper. In the car I only listen to CDs to ensure I don't catch a sports update. I didn't watch last night's game in case they mentioned the...

Form for this weekend… 1\. The Tigers have won 9 straight. 2\. Tigers have won the two games against the Warriors this year. 3\. Chris Lawrence is back. 4\. The Warriors were woeful last week. 5\. Wests Tigers have NEVER played a bad semi. 6\. Our spine is in awesome form. 7\. We are at home...

Just an observation… Under the McIntyre system, If you play in the 4 Vs 5 game, you're pretty much guaranteed to be playing in week 2. If you win, you're not high enough to get the week off. If you lose, you're not low enough to get knocked out! :crazy

Just wanted to say that I thought our final twenty minutes yesterday was outstanding. A very professional finish to the game. We tightened up the defence and finished the game strongly. A good sign. Even when we had out lead cut to 4 points, I knew that if we controlled the ball again we'd be...

Who has you worried three weeks out from the semis? Melbourne - Definate contenders, although tonight against the Dragqueens they definately looked beatable. They only won 12-4 against us not long ago when we were in a major slump, too. Manly - Definate contenders, although Blue Tongue showed...

Have been interested in the comments on a number of threads relating to the Tigers run into the semi finals. One school of thought is that we need to lose a game before the semis to take the pressure off… that expecting the team to win 12 straight games (to win the GF) is simply too much. The...

When Gordon was around they were saying that he should be the Panthers long term Fullback, NSW fullback etc. Lachlan Coote doesn't look like he'll fit in. Should we go after him? Would be a great be a great signing and he showed that last year. Think he would be about 180-220k to land him but...

Was just listening to 2GB and they were talking to Channel 9 head of sports, Steve Crawley. They asked him about the decision to play the Tigers/Panthers game first up in Sydney as opposed to Lockyer's 350th game. Amongst other things, Crawley was saying that the Tigers always rate well on TV...

Hi Folks With the injuries and poor form shown this year, there are many people on here predicting very little in terms of Tigers chances for the remainder of this year. Am just wondering how many feel this way? Being a "glass half full" type person, I can't bring myself to give up on the...
