Does anyone else no longer care? What makes you continue to show up?

I stopped watching

Until someone like Cleary or Bennett walk into the joint, it will be the same cycle over and over again.

Year after year, drama after drama.

We have re-signed players on significant money and are hedging everything on them finding the form they once had. We appear to have exhausted our salary cap and there are no external options available on the market. Even if there was, why would they come here?

When you talk Marquee signings, we bend over backwards and spend massive overs to attract talent who either lose their form, leave, or both.

I cannot understand how and why we cannot seem to develop juniors or identify junior talent. We always talk up the next big thing, and it has never come.

I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel unfortunatley.

I just walked past Chris Lawrence in Concord, should have asked for a photo, if only we had players like him still at the club

And the odd occasion we do, they leave. Take Makasini. The debate about how high his ceiling is is almost irrelevant. The better question is how high of a ceiling can he have for us to retain him if he’s that good. If he’s just an above average first grader, we’re a good chance of retaining him. If he goes through the roof and into outer space, he’s not staying

You don't know if he will leave for sure, you are just carrying on with negative comments you have been hammering the forum for days, we lost just get over it, top of the list sad sack.

Don’t worry he’ll probably be on the coaching staff soon 😂

 

[Papacito]

Would I like to see the boys doing better? Of course.

But at the end of the day, it's just footy.

My family has had a really rough patch over the last 18 months. The footy gives me an hour and a bit every week to take my mind off everything else that's going on in my life. Have a cheer when they do ok and a laugh when they do something dumb.

I was taking my two sons to Vegas , but both now don’t want to go , they want me to take them on a cruise instead , they both have been tigers supporters since they could walk , it breaks my heart, but the club is cutting there own throats

Wow that says everything right there that your kids don’t want to go to what would normally be a fantastic experience for them. This club has killed even the resilience of the children who support them let alone us adults. So, so sad.

Man the Vegas and NYC package for 5k looks awesome

I would have gone if I had any faith in us not getting 50 points put on us lol

It’s emotion. Idk why people are thinking mindsets won’t change come the off season. Come November, you’ll all be on me for being negative. Bookmark it.

I don’t know, GNR I think more people might’ve reached the end of their hope and patience now. I’m not sure we’ll see too many positive people at the start of next season.

You think there could be a worse way to go into an off season losing by 50 in spoon bowl at fortress Cambo? Everyone forgot about in no time.

Im done unfortunately. I keep dropping back in here due muscle memory. Money aside I think of all the years we ( us the collective ) have given the Tigers and it blows my mind. There has to be an agenda for Wests Tigers to fail. Nothing at all changes and season after season we all keep buying memberships, rocking up to stadiums, buying merchandise, tuning in on TV giving HBG handfuls of money and getting stressed out the eyeballs. The same 25 people end up arguing on here about the same things every season.

Coaches, players, entire rosters, facilities, CEOs, sponsors it all changes except the owners and the result. We get Gaslit every year with a mini series or flashy social media campaign. The organisation is a dumpster fire and theres not a chance in any way I would want my relative to sign with them. I wont ever support another side. if HBG sold the club id be back id even look into sponsorship but im out.

I hope Dad understands if he is looking down. I just can't instill stress and failure in my kids haha

Once re negotiated his contract to help alleviate our salary cap. Legend.

 

[Toothless Tigers]

All I got is that the majority of WT players are extremely overpaid and massive underachievers. So many would get sacked if they had a proper job where they are accountable for their work results.
Too bad that doesn’t apply in the NRL

That was Liam Fulton in 2009, too. Played for Leeds, iirc

Yes Liam left because as usual our clowns had stuffed the salary cap.

Maybe we can just go over and forget the footy. Less stress.
