Trailer is so powerful.
Makes us look like a super star club.

"You represent the jersey!!"

Then look at the current ladder and past few years of results.... 😂🤦‍♂️

Is this funniest home videos?
This is not the right time for this type of publicity, lol.

I think it would be a really good watch imo..the 1 im most looking forward to in the aftermath of the storm game....mmmmm

I'll be watching but I have extremely low expectations.

I think it was a really bad idea.
No happy endings in this one.

Nice. We're creating more content for the media to bash us with.

Won't be long until someone does a collage of Panther facilities, Roosters Facilities, then showing this tigers facilities image.

Would've been nice if they waited until the CoE had been built to at least have something positive to show.

I can see what they're trying to do. Their intentions are good but the execution of it all is so amateurish. There is no sort of planning or management. I say this all the time, Wests Tigers as an organisation is improving but all others are improving so much faster than us.

Seriously who agreed to this doco ? It’s being filmed in one of the worst seasons we’ve ever had while we already fighting with the broncos for the biggest laughing stock in the league, this doco will take it over the edge. Look at Sunderland and Tottenham with their documentaries, absolute shambles the both of them. Can’t wait for Fox to come out with their next Maguire sob piece because “look how passionate he is in the sheds”. Embarrassing from top to bottom

It might end up shedding some light on what goes on behind the scenes. Sometimes a losing season can be just as illuminating. And for non-Tigers fans, potentially very entertaining when they aren't invested in the results.

It's innovative if nothing else. If the documentary ends up showing Tigers to be an absolute amateur shambles organisation, then yes Tigers would probably have been better off keeping it to themselves. If not, it gets some of the Tigers story into public.

Also Tottenham aren't shambles, they just have very high expectations because that's how EPL fans are with high-support teams. Tottenham are like Tigers in many ways, they have a long-term milestone (silverware) that they just can't seem to achieve. And they are churning through managers too rapidly of late.

Difference being Tottenham have actually been super competitive most recent seasons, almost always Top 8 and often playing in Europe. But fans want that trophy - FA Cup, Carabao Cup, anything. And there are bigger and better financed sides who beat them out, who seem to not worry about salary caps or funding streams.

I mean, Tottenham own a $1B stadium, even though it's in debt, NRL the organisation doesn't have anything like that. AFL owns Marvel Stadium, which is half the cost of Tottenham Stadium.

If you held a gun to my head I couldn’t tell you who’s gonna win silverware first. Also with the off season and end of the season Tottenham had, I would definitely say they are shambles. Couldn’t get 4 different managers over the line and likely to lose one of their best ever players. Not to mention sacking a coach the week of the cup final

Kane hasn't left yet and 7th is hardly shambles. West Ham were 2 off relegation in 19/20 and finished 6th 20/21. Arsenal haven't done better than 8th in past two seasons.

Tottenham haven't done worse than 7th since since 2009.

Any of those top clubs can turn it around pretty quickly in 2-3 seasons, if they can get their balance right. Look at Chelsea - 10th in 15/16, but won it the year before and after.

Hopefully it puts a spotlight on the massive shortcomings in our club which will hopefully lead to some change within.

There might not be as many clear shortcomings as you might think.

Very generic comment. In what respect is there no planning or management? Execution of what?

All others? All other clubs improving faster than Tigers. Dragons? Warriors? Titans? Dogs?

This sums up my feelings on game day, so at least they're consistent.


Someone in club management actually thought a mockumentary was a good idea. FFS. :face_palm:
 
Am genuinely extremely excited to see this. I fail to see why you wouldn’t be. Rumours may be accentuated or debunked, for good or for worse. I think for good.

As fans, we’re ecstatic to see inside information put on this forum. To have an innovative documentary on the inner-workings of the club I love is something I am thrilled and eager to watch. A great initiative and I hope it succeeds it’s expectations. Well done to the club.

I agree with you and as a fan I should be excited to get a rare look behind the curtain but this club / organization is inept. Everything they touch turns to :hankey: . There is no innovation, success or grittiness to either the players or the management. So you have to ask yourself, why are wests the lucky benefactors to receive this type of focused attention from FOX? Cause everyone likes a car crash. Makes great viewing.
 
Is this the vid where Marty McFly, a 17-year-old high school student, is accidentally sent back into the recent past (2005) in a time-traveling DeLorean invented by his close friend, the eccentric scientist Doc Brown.

Look at the results but I have made plenty of posts on this topic if you want to go through my posts mate.
 
These sorts of docos are always popular. The NFL has hard knocks, but that is the lead up to the season and largely around players trying to make the final roster.

Hard Knocks is one of my favourite shows.

Have you checked 123 where the bad documentaries like my 90 day contract, and 600lb centre from the raiders are shown?
