:sign: We have never had a decent quota of forwards in our history and forwards win the tight games. We now have those forwards and together with some of the best backs in the business I predict we will be in the eight somewhere.

I think with our backs your referring more to the word of POTENTIALLY best backs in years to come, no way at the moment.
 
Tedesco-Nofoaluma-Simona-Lawrence-Richards….All above average players with a good mix of youth and experience. They are all past the potentially good player marker already IMO.
 
Let them get through 2 seasons before you make a judgement

How many players in the past have looked like superstars in their first season and when clubs work out their strengths and weaknesses literally drop off the map as they can't adapt to the new challenges

Expectation can have an effect on young players ,some good some bad
 
I'm confident of top 8\. Have backed them accordingly. I hope the Kidwell effect on Adam Blair might see him have a great year. Beyond that, no idea.

Wonder how many players have played SOO and for Australia after one season compared to the amount of players who struggle to make 50 NRL games because they can't meet the demands of the game

Its OK son , you'll might learn a bit from this old fart from time to time

Maybe see on average how many games an NRL player plays ??

That's my point Prmz

Alfie possibly did ?? Maybe 2nd season

A lot of the games superstars from the last 40 years didn't play interstate/SOO/Australia

Players of the calibre of Lewis ,Johns ,Kenny ,Meninga ,Lockyer ,Lazarus ,Roberts ,Clyde ,Daley ,Fittler, Miles etc didn't play rep footy first season

But think of the players who you thought would be superstars after their first season and didn't make it to their 3rd or 4th season

Players imo (and many coaches opinions ) haven't cracked it until they have played 50+ games

Quintus I think Tedesco will be a permanent fixture in the Wests Tigers side for many years and Simona and Nofoaluma probably will also

But opposition clubs work out their weaknesses after about a season and then the players have to then respond to that , unfortunately some can't

Koroibete is a perfect example of this Clubs have worked out he struggles under the high ball and has little faith in his inside man

He now has to develop and work on that or he will be out the back door before too long
 
Ladder finish: 6 th
win first week of playoffs , get knocked out 2nd week of playoffs
