The ridiculous haircut, tracksuit pants, cheap tattoos on display and hitler moustache might not ooze the “CEO in full control” vibe that Pascoe thinks he’s giving off.
Forget about the rest of the game… we had two great opportunities on their line early… both times Brooks throws hopeless passes on the 5th. We were on the back foot from there.
Get rid of Pascoe first, and Brooks second please. Both ingrained losers.
As fans, we have to all accept that these long-term issues can no longer be placed at the feet of the coach or the players group.
Cleary has the Panthers looking good this year, after narrowly missing out last year. He obviously knows how to do his job.
The list of players who leave our club...
Macguire makes sense. Strong Kiwi connection, which will fit our club culture well, knows how to build a culture (eg Melbourne), turned Wigan around, turned Souths around. He is the bloke on the market that every club looking for a coach wants to sign. If the Tigers can swap him for Ivan and use...
The drama over the coach is painful after all the other drama the Club has copped, but if Ivan wants to sign for the Panthers in 2021 (or sooner) good luck to him and let's extract maximum value and keep going. At least Luke Brooks knows he can build his career at the Tigers, with NC having...
It is certainly an exciting prospect.
People bang on about Robbie and Benji (and rightly so as they are awesome), but it was Scott Prince who won the Clive Churchill Medal and captained us to the 2005 Premiership. We haven’t had another halfback of that quality since.
Brooks is playing great...
It’s great to have a result if you’re a gambler or one of the sports betting agencies embedded in the game, and fun for a novelty, but in a game that’s been tougher out having the field-goal-a-thon at the end is always unsatisfying.
And I’m not sure why the NRL thinks draws are undesirable...
On tonight's effort though it looks like his manager has told him to protect himself and be in good nick to party with the new team (and management) at Ivy on Saturday night.
I thought I understood. I sympathised. I expected to cheer Teddy every minute he spent in a Tigers jersey.
But those two "tackle attempts" suggest he couldn't care less about us. Get a bag, find a cubicle and enjoy the rock star lifestyle at the Roosters.
Time to move on.
Unfortunately the current administration has had to deal with a legacy of mismanagement, salary cap issues and a culture of players and their managers running the club. Woods and Moses wanted too much money. They're readily replaceable. They were also part of the poor culture. If Pascoe is...
Sure. But if Woods doesn't have a handful of the marker's jersey it's not an issue. Too much nonsense, niggling, wrestling, cheating is tolerated in league these days. Unlucky call for us, but Woods was cheating and it probably cost us a try.
It would be a shame to lose our skipper and best forward, as it also would be to lose one of the most exciting players in the NRL. I hope we keep them both.
Contract discussions are always going to be polarising, especially with young players in good form (both likely to be Australian reps this...
Rankin didn't have a great game last week, but his super league stats suggest he's a decent player and his ability to cover any back line position gives us some flexibility to take a forward biased bench into the game. Looking forward to Monday and hoping the young man has a blinder.
A 20 point lead demoralises the opposition and forces them to score at least 4 tries to come back. A really clinical side would also have been considering setting up a field goal at that time to close out the game, so I can't see any way to dice it other than two poor decisions not to take the...
I don't pretend to know what is happening at the club and I am sure I have less idea than most on these forums.
But from a supporter of the club since childhood, who grew up close enough to hear the crowd from Leichhardt Oval and has been following since the 1970s, I do know that major...
I fully expect the normal "we was robbed" response from the Tigers.
As the commentators were noting that Robbie Farah was teasing Croker about his history of important missed kicks against us, I was musing that Croker had played mature, responsible, mistake free footy to lead his team back from...
