OFFICIAL Bryce Gibbs [Discussion]

Fulton has been in fine form while Gibbs has been great. Let's see how the team backs up this week against a rugged team in penriff while WTs are without Lawry and Lote, should provide some indication of our chances in the remaining games until they both come back from injury. Watching the team's performance and gain in momentum in recent games was starting to give me a 2005 feeling until injuries hit again that's why it will be interesting to see how they go this Friday.
 
Gibbs matured last year and it's disappointing we won't get his most productive years. Fulton is playing the way he should. Probably because the Gibbs and Galloway are going forward.

They're playing well and both realise this could be the last time they play together.

Good to see they are making the most of this last opportunity rather than turn it up. Credit to both.

x 2 Cunno Lets hope we can send Gibbs out the right way also . Fulton will be here for the good times in the future
 
I am really happy to see both these guys in top form, and with our attack blunted through the loss of Lote and Lawrence, defence will be more important than ever.

If these two continue to play and defend the way they have it will help the team big time over the next few weeks!!

these two are in career best form - contrary to the rumours that fulton is going to the sharks, the way these two are playing seems to be more along the lines of that this will be the final year for them. They are on a mission, 2 mates that virtually played all their careers together. When these two play good, the whole pack lights up. They are the soul of our team. And if Bryce and Liam continue this form then there is no reason we cannot win these last four games starting friday night with or without lawrence. 05' anyone?

Couldn't agree more! These two are definately on a mission!! Go boys!! :sign:
 
Wow.

He should have signed for another team every year he has been at the tigers the way he is playing.

Takes the dirty hit-ups, does the hard low tackles, works hard and hass less penalties than ever. Can honestly say for once that I will be sad to see him leave.
 
Gibbs has been playing pretty well for about two seasons now really. He is one of if not the best defensive prop in the game - his tackling technique is second to none.

His hit-ups thought have defenitely gone up a notch the last month though.

I was disappointed the moment it was announced he was gone, but you can't keep them all.
 
he's playing out of his skin - i feel sorry for him a little knowing that he is going to cronulla - prefer it be a better team where he can play semi football. Cronulla seems a backward step. Hope i'm wrong. Will Blair ever be a great wests tiger (in spirit that is) as bryce gibbs is.
 
I think in the end as T Rex pointed out to me there was starting to get too many issues with his knees and that was starting to become an issue at the time when the Tigers were weighing up their options
But he is playing better than ever ,almost as if he is trying to prove a point
I think you will find that the whole team has made a pact to send all the departing players out on a high note
 
Wouldnt it be good if all Footballers were on Performance Based Contracts like most other people… They could make 50% of your contract as a base Salary and the remainder based on a win loss ratio. Win 50% of your games, you get 75% of your contract value.

oh... Player managers wouldnt go for that would they?!
 
I wonder if his contract was said and done before Payto announced his retirement…
I'd hate to think that it was a possibilty to keep Gibbsy?
He is currently in Career best form, And not the penalty machine he used to be.
I LOVE GIBBSY!!
 
He sets the standard for the defensive line speed when on song like at present, but hard calls have to be made and you have to be looking at three years down the track all the time and you also have to look what you have in the cupboard as far as depth goes and front row was a area we had plenty of options with some real prospects coming through the system.

Although I rate Gibbs very highly, Iam easy with the call to let him go and I do feel for him, he will not have a easy gig at the Sharks
 
To be honest i think we had the money to keep Bryce & a couple of things happened which changed there minds, one was maybe they wanted to break up the mates groups & the other might of been the injury concerns with his knees. But i must admit i am sorry to see him go as he is a wests tigers man through & through.
