    One thing you have to admire about Riff, they play by the salary cap rules, unlike a few other teams who always find away to keep the players they want. Okay they have a steady flow of quality players that comes through their outstanding pathways system, so I guess they have faith they can...

    Just about to post the same thing. Someone post something on social media and within a few days we have him and his parents in the firing line. At this stage we have had zero confirmation that there is any truth to the social media post. Okay it may have legs, but put your guns down till it is...

    These days wingers do more dirty runs than front rowers. So you need big body wingers who have some grunt to make the defensive carries. On top of that they have to be good in the air, good at defensive reads and good finishers. The days of a small whippet are gone. Our yardage game struggles...

    It’s a long way from the cellar to the top bar. The 17 we have now will probably make up 40% of our team that finally makes the top four, but they will help getting us heading in the right direction. Today for most of the game we were in the hunt with the team that has dominated the comp for a...

    3 2 1 vs Penrith

    My order and my three. I really think the whole 17 had a dig but at the end of the day they were up against a side that knows how to win football matches even when they are not firing

    LIVE GAME Round 7 vs. Panthers

    I thought they had a real dig and pushed the premiers. Their defence was pretty good except the odd mis tackle. Team work in the end killed them. Riff are the ultimate team, everyone contributes, our mob dont Know how to break a defence up ad lack an attacking plan. That will come and by...

    Schiller has strong family ties in the Hunter region. It was only every a choice between staying put or going to the Knights.

    Onitoni Large

    I thought he was under contract ?? If so how can he sign elsewhere. Anyway I guess it’s better he hits the road now, rather in a few years when we had developed him into the real deal only to see him head off to the Chooks or another parasite club

    TEAM LIST Round 7 vs. Panthers

    Probably our best 17 that is available, so we should get a good idea how competitive we are going to be against the better teams. Would have been nice to have this 17 last week at Cambo

    The short kick off.

    It’s all about risk vrs reward. The risk is you concede a scrum, but if you go long, you’re going to be defending tackle two from much the same place. Basically it’s a no brainer and that is what the NRL want. As I said a couple of weeks ago, it was introduced to stop high speed collisions, to...

    Your team for Panthers

    Find 17 players who are willing to run straight and hard. This pussy footing across the field is getting us nowhere. Bula has to learn to straighten the attack. Anyway Riff will rip it up the middle then quick shifts out wide and rack up a comfortable win. Seriously if we could not compete with...

    I was there mate, the score flattered us and St George bar a few patches were nothing special. As supporters we are alway trying to find a positive in our defeats. Sunday they were absolutely terrible and were blessed we were not playing a gun side. I can see another massive score line being...

    Like every other year in the past decade we are already focusing on next year and how a 2025 new recruit will go. Sad, but it’s just all part of being a Weststigers supporter .

    LIVE GAME Round 6 vs. Dragons

    Made the hike up to Cambo today fully expecting to get beaten, probably just my negative nature. What I did not expect was a totally lame performance. There was zero to take out of this game, the Dragons were there for the taking and we lacked intensity, we lacked direction, we lacked skill and...

    Rd 6 discussion 'spoilers'

    Spot on, they slowed the Knights play the ball to snails pace. Sutton as usual turned a blind eye. He has form at getting the Chooks over the line

    TEAM LIST Round 6 vs. Dragons

    Anyone in a NRL tipping comp will tell you form means nothing when trying to pick a winner. Normally I would say this is a toss of the coin but I think Flano would have flogged the Dragons this week and they have slightly more firepower than us…hope Iam wrong

    The last thing we need is a project who needs a lot of work. We need big fast strong athletes ready to go. If we were already a strong club you may take a punt on Schuster but not when your trying to climb from the cellar

    NRL 360

    I think you will find most of the stuff they do is scripted. The show has been produced to be sensational to get ratings. The whole show is fake and lacks substance, but they will not change a thing while people keep watching the rubbish they churn out. Quality sports journalism is a thing of...

    Latrell : Exposed

    With the majority of the current roster you would be a brave man to take on Souths as a coaching gig. Lots of strong personalities and egos to deal with and a lot of money tied up in some old legs. Cody Walker is the key, when he is on song South’s are on song, but at present he looks very...
