    Home and away protocols

    At the Parra game, my kids were asking for facepaint, so we trecked around the stadium until we found a couple of ladies and a long line of kiddies. After about 20 minutes we got to the front of the queue, only to have them say that we couldn't get orange paint, because they were employed by the...

    Run-arounds

    Hi all. I just want to check my understanding of the rule with run-arounds. In the game vs Souths, when they scored their 3rd try (I think that was the one), they did a run-around. However, the player running around got the ball back before he ran behind the player passing it to him. I always...

    Easter Monday locked in?

    I saw these tweets yesterday regarding the game vs Parra being locked into the calendar each year for Easter Monday. Orange ‏@orangeemptyseat 19 hours ago > Hey @ANZStadium do Tigers and Eels have Easter Mon locked in again or was that a one off? EelsVBulldogs on Queens Birthday would also...

    Half time entertainment

    I loved the irony of the girl singing Unwritten at half time. "Feel the rain on your skin" And there she was with a guy holding a big umbrella over her head while we got soaked.

    Free entry for ALL members

    In case you haven't heard yet, this game is free entry for all NRL ticketed members. I'm interpreting this as from any club, not just Wests Tigers. But I doubt any of you are members for any other clubs anyway… But if you only have Leichhardt or Campbelltown memberships, you still get free...

    The penalty goal at the end

    There are about 2 minutes to go in the game. We get a penalty on half way. We are leading by 1 point. Should we have: a) gone for the penalty goal, or b) keep the ball in hand and try to run down the clock? We all know how this ended. But what were you thinking at the time?

    Memorable debuts

    Seeing we have another 2 debutants for Wests Tigers this weekend, (Rowe a NRL debut, Austin just a club debut), I started thinking. What have been the most memorable debuts we have had over our 15 year history. The ones that immediately came to mind for me were: 1\. Benji Marshall - Round 20...

    The forgotten fend

    https://www.nrl.com/the-forgotten-fend-2005-grand-final/tabid/10874/newsid/74325/default.aspx Who could forget that fend? Great video by the NRL on Richards' try in the 2005 grand final. Never get tired of seeing it, but there are also some aspects I had never thought about before, like what...

    Crowd expectations

    Saw this tweet by Grant Meyer this morning: Ticket sales for Canberra game tracking toward same crowd as Panthers game. With $10 tickets, an affordable, entertaining night out Pretty sad, considering they have the 4 games on for $10 general admission. If we only get about 10k there, that would...

    The J(uro) Curve

    Now that we have a few games under our belt for the season, I think it's time for me to start looking at where we are, similar to what I did last year (but with a snazzier title). 5 weeks in, 2 wins, 3 losses, -49 F/A, sitting 12th on the ladder. But that is only looking backwards. What are our...

    2013 Possible milestones

    As the start of the season creeps ever closer, I thought I would look ahead to what milestones our club and its players may be able to notch up in 2013. **Wests Tigers: 350 Games** We are currently on 325 games, so if we make the top 8, week 1 of the finals would be game 350\. That game would...

    What merchandise would you buy?

    I've never set foot in a GearZone shop, since I don't live near either Concord or Campbelltown, so I'm just going off what is on the website. What is there to buy, and would I buy it? - jerseys - yes - other clothes - maybe - random stuff with our logo on it (glasses, watches, bags, bottles...

    Player winning stats

    I heard that Farah and Heighington brought up their 100th wins for the Wests Tigers with the win against Penrith. They are the first to achieve that milestone, so a big congratulations to both. Funny how they both scored tries in the game too… Farah took 179 games to get his 100 wins (55.9%)...

    Idea for suspensions

    I was thinking about the general complaint with players getting put on report to face the judiciary, where the team they played don't get any benefit from the possible suspension. For example, if Wests Tigers were playing Melbourne and Robbie Farah got hit high by Billy Slater and went off...

    Driving to the game

    It has been years since I have tried driving to a game at the SFS. What is parking like around there nowadays? I am taking my family (4yo boy and 1yo girl - first game for both) so don't want the hassle of public transport. Where is the best place to park? What is the cost of parking?

    How is our season looking?

    How are we positioned this year? After 3 games, 1 win, 2 losses, what are the chances we will make the finals this year? This was a question I have been playing around with, so I built myself a little model to forecast the rest of the season. ![](http://s19.postimage.org/tweyh9sf5/2012_r03.png)...

    Just wondering how you post your own pictures to a post? I know how to do it with pictures copied from elsewhere on the internet, but not from my own hard drive. Can someone help?
