A new low in pessimism. Going off a bit early with your appraisal of our 2017 defence yeah? According to the gregorian calendar it is still 2017\. Do you have access to a flux capacitor or something? An almanac for the 21st Century? If so, please I want a look at it.

Yep I hear you, the young family comes first. At least you can brainwash them into being WT fans for life early before they listen to friends at school and become a Souffs fan or something. There's a member package for $50 that gives you voting, regular(ish) club updates, a member cap, lanyard...

Yes agreed, that will be tough. Then what to do when they want to borrow the other half of our spine in the coming seasons?

Yes agreed. All the talk is of Tedesco today and rightly so, but the forwards have lifted in a big way. Without that we have 2015\. Early days is an understatement, but its been years since the team as a whole has clicked like this. Like I said, early days… but damn it was good to watch.

While I have previously been critical of Lovett, I will pay credit that he made a big effort last night. A couple of defensive lapses, but overall it was not bad from him. He just needs to realise that he is big enough and mobile enough to bend the defensive line back much more than he does...

Very happy with the forwards. Agreed, Lawrence had a blinder. As did Woods and Grant. What a bargain he's turning out to be.

Renewed. No brainer. Would renew for 2017 if it was possible. We need to stick solid more now than ever.

Worst defender in the NRL? He's not even the worst defender in the Wests Tigers.

JT has consistently identified defence as a major area for improvement, which of course nobody could disagree with. Assuming RF can be offloaded at a price that leaves us enough cash to make a modest purchase or 2, I would be interested to know what the coach has in mind in terms of realistic...

Good luck with that.

wow

When JT says Lovett has exceeded his expectations this year, I have deep concerns around WT's future prospects. The stats getting quoted in defence of Lovett are not addressing the real issue. Throwing a hand out at an opposition ball carrier is not merely a 'missed tackle'. It is a non attempt...
