Watching the storm last night with 3 ex tigers forwards in their pack makes me wonder how everyone sees different things in players, or is it just the environment at the Storm that gets the best out of most players that end up there. If your club has a good culture not many players want to...

Extended Bench He is either available to play or out for the rest of the season like Doueihi. If he is as you say our first choice winger no wonder we are where we are on the ladder.

One to consider How far down the pecking order is Turuva at, at this point in time ? How much is his contract worth and are PNG interested in taking him off our hands in 2028 ? Can’t believe we let the Laulili brothers go and extended Turuva.

I wonder how West Tigers supporters would have reacted if the boot was on the other foot with Skelton not getting sin binned for early tackle (contact) near the end of the match. IMO it was a try scoring opportunity and should have been a sin bin. Just another example of the inconsistency of the...

An NFL punter never gets tackled and AFL body shapes wouldn’t survive in NRL. Seeing Bula is playing NRL I was comparing his physique to other NRL Long kickers.

Physique suited to kick long, So he looks body wise like Ricky Stuart & Mitch Moses who I think are/were Long Kickers not forgetting Adam Reynolds 😂

Maybe we need to get some backs with speed before worrying about getting a sprint coach. I would be surprised if we aren’t the slowest backline in the competition by a long way 🐘

Agree Full Pre season working on DEFENCE for both of them.

I would disagree about speed Turuva of the mark looks a lot quicker than Makasini

My concern with that is has he got enough speed ? I keep going back to that time against Newcastle when he was in the clear by around 10 metres and got ran down.

Yes Beating reserve grade players, NRL is a completely different game as he has found.

It’s quite easy drawing and passing around a witchers hat. And then don’t understand why it doesn’t work against players

Bellend The only thing with that is if they make development squads at 13 years old they are told to forget that and they then get taught to hold the opponent upright and wait for 1 or 2 of your teammates to join the tackle and only put him on the ground after the ref calls held. How the game...

What if Sam Fainu has a clause in his new contract that states if Benji isn’t the coach he can look elsewhere ? Players contract clauses are big now a days. Would make it interesting 🤔

Which one are we ? Bengal Tiger: The most common tiger. It has a bright orange coat and lives mainly in India. Amur (Siberian) Tiger: The largest tiger in the world. It has thick fur and pale stripes to survive the cold Russian winters. Sumatran Tiger: The smallest living tiger. It is a...

I hope you’re right BB Because we play them again this year 🫣 Don’t know who or if they wanted any of our players. All I’m saying is in my opinion that next year there squad will look stronger than ours. As we really haven’t recruited just replaced like for like To’a with Averillo

And I agree with your take on the role of the 13, I wouldn’t mind starting the game with Twal and then moving him up to the front row after 20 minutes and having someone like Connor Watson come on as a 13 like you are talking about. Pity St George have snapped up Watson for next year.

Would that be Dean Young. Does anyone else scratch their head and wonder how St George have in the same market as the West Tigers recruited the players they have and we have so far got Averillo 🤷‍♂️

Hey V My only concern with your suggestion is moving players from their best position doesn’t always work out. I think they are all good edge forwards which is a 11 or 12 , I see in today’s game a 13 plays like a middle with a bit better ball skills I wouldn’t want to change how any of them...

100% My choice also as best centre I have seen, If only we could find a youngster with his acceleration and defence. He had it all. R.I.P
