Benji Marshall

Hmm, is he better than Rankin and JLJ? Cause that's what we're faced with for the rest of the season…

You know I feel for Rankin a bit. He finally gets to prove his ware in the position he wants and rather than get a shot with our best half, he gets saddled up JLJ. You could see he was busting his arse. unlike a few of the other pretenders. He must lay there at night and wonder what he done wrong to the footy gods. I think if he gets another shot beside Luke, he will be a far better proposition than Benji.
 
I think it would be great if we could bring one of our own back home…

We have nothing to lose when you think about it..

Bit of a morale booster would be good for the club..
 
We have players that most here reckon wouldn't walk into other clubs squads, yet we wanna sign a player that fits that description currently
 
He's my favourite player ever so I won't say no….plus its weird hearing him play for someone else Wests Tigers is his home and where he belongs....from a marketing point for Reggie's its a no brainer

Tend to agree with this.
 
Bring him back as a halves coach.

I prefer the idea of getting Gamble immediately.

Anyway I won't be sad if Benji came back, even though I am a recent Tiger. p.s. he shares my initals BM
 
Where's the poll option for 'hello no, not in a million years, please make it stop!' ?

He would be one of the few ways in which our season could actually get worse. Stupifying that some can't recognise this with 05 rose coloured shades on….
 
If Benji does not push out talent.

I say Hell yes.

You don't need to play him in the halves either. Put him in at the centers, kick out Naiqama or one of the other turn styles. Benji isn't the best defender but he could rally the team and definitely add some spark to our attack.

I say the dramas with Farah cost us Woods and Tedesco. Unlike almost everyone else I am sad to see Woods go. Both Farah and Benji were club men (whatever their faults, merits, etc), it would be good to see one finish here.

I don't think he'd be a good halves coach. He plays off the cuff stuff and half the team doesn't even know what is happening. It's good when everything falls in to place, looks ordinary if it doesn't. This is not what Brooks needs.

He hasn't done anything to the Gods, he just isn't that good. It's not as if the bloke hasn't had his chances, he's played 40 NRL games and 42 SL games.

It wasn't the drama with Farah that we lost Woods and Tedesco. It was their own drama. Holding the club to ransom to see if the NRL will raise the cap and then what? Ask for more money? I am glad they are moving on. We don't want player power in the club and good luck to them.

Tigers fb page…

Just finished watching our past and present Tigers carve up at the dolphins. Tyson Gamble is an absolute gun looking forward to seeing him in Tigers colours next year. Scored a hat trick today and look dangerous the whole game. Benji Marshall is absolutely utilising his time at the dolphins. His defence is on a whole other level and his attack in the second half was second to none, scoring a sweet try at the same time :wink: and as much of a flog lodge is boy does he hit that defensive line hard and fast. Also confirmed from benji the man himself, will be playing with the tigers from next week onwards hahahaha

They didn't mention the great Hooter?
 
I think we should have a poll on whether polls should be banned. Every second thread you lately is a poll. Usually created by the same posters.
