Thanks Hank. I haven’t seen as many times as Benji’s GF Flick pass, but it’s got high numbers and I love watching it again.
I was spewing when let him go, I was like, what don’t you fruit pascals wanna win games?
We should have a Remembrance Day, two actually, the day JT got the sack and the day Fruit Pascals got the sack. We don’t ever wanna forget what a bad coach and a bad CEO can do, and we had both at the same time. Lest We Forget.

And before anyone gets offended my fam has been/is connected to the forces. For generations.

It was the first thing I thought of when I seen pepper's. I haven’t played in it to know, but you would think they would know one way or the other by now.
Tigers should get some grip on it and not tell anyone. Put some serious tech into a giant grippy logo so our boys can run along with the ball stuck to their belly give double Kapow palms all the way to the line.

Lol... Classic. What are those like Velcro disks you catch a tennis ball with?! 🤣

Pretty sure all teams do have like clear rubber pellets on the front don't they?

Anyone able to confirm this?

Did anyone ever use to spray the grippy stuff on their hands? I tried it once and absolutely hated it.

First time I got the ball (around the 67th minute i think...) I tried to pass it and it stuck to my hands for just that fraction of a second, you know?

Straight after that I got the water and went right back to my pre-game ritual of grabbing dirt from the field and rubbing my hands together. Worked for me....

I remember it well because that slight delay in the pass made it an intercept and the opposition centre ran 80 m and scored under the posts while I was just standing there washing my hands and then making them dirty.

Cos I was a black belt in the art of Doueihi Defence.... 😜

Okay, facts - hated the sticky crap; did rub dirt into my hands every game as soon as I got in position.

Yeah Velcro paddle things, something like that but the footy is not furry, but I bet there is some tech head out there with some inavatetive ideas. We need to be stealth about it too. But I reckon Richo can handle that. Where as fruit pascals would have place an add in the paper for someone to help us cheat.

I'm stoked with the sponsorship deal, love that Richo got us the best deal, etc. but I fall into the camp that prefers a sponsor's logo be more incorporated in the jersey. The Rorters seemed to do this well with their latest offering.

And yes, it doesn't really matter in the end, so long as the club is financially healthy and we're winning on the field, but I couldn't help myself but mockup an alt sponsor logo to see what it would look like. I'm no professional but something like this would have at least been cleaner. But I guess we take the money as it comes.

That actually works well as the shape of the m blends in with the shape of the v...

Our jerseys are an optical illusion. They look blood orange in some pictures and old fashioned Balmain gold in others -

I wonder if anyone has noticed that the black stripe is narrower on the orange jersey than the orange stripe on the black jersey. Looks about half a cm narrower.
I wonder if that’s for the the girls jersey as opposed to the men’s jersey or the orange jersey for the men (if there is one) will be the same.
 
I did. Threw out my whole day. But I will.get back.on track. Driving home soon. My kids will bring me back to reality. Youngest one asked for MacDonald's. Believe that gripe?,

Don't like them. As a joint venture the NRL should let Wests Tigers dispense with having 'home' and 'away' jerseys as such and let them play in a either an 80s era Balmain jersey or Victa Magpies jersey, dependent on who their opponent is. For eg, we play Souths or Canberra, Balmain jersey. We play Manly or the Bulldogs, Magpies jersey. An alternate third jersey should be that dominant white jersey from I think around 2017/18 with the grey silhouette of the Tiger logo emblazoned on the chest.

Welcome Vinnie

I couldn't disagree more.

Balmain and the westa magpies are gone now.

No more Victa or Philips jerseys ever again.

All about the future and the next generation of fans.

I don't even like that we play in Orange at LO and Black at Campbo.

The club should have drawn a line in the sand 25 years ago,not pussy foot about ,to keep two sides of a shotgun marriage appeased. Wasted another opportunity in 05.Respect the major milestones of clubs ,players by all means (dinner fan day) not on national tv.Time we start only focusing from year 2000 onwards publicly so 2 speak. And just to stay on thread the jersey looks great, couldn't care less as long as its our colours

If you mean the stripes of the Vs then yes I noticed... But didn't wonder about if both home and away male and female.are different.
Theyre different cuts so I imagine the women's black jumper will have a thinner stripe too
