Take your one eyed glasses off, he was just as bad as the rest of the team.

Your kiddin' - you are usually on the money with comments -

Elijah, Woods and Moses were the only players who stood out.

The rest of them played horribly!

Solid debut by Taylor, it was very rare for the tigers to make a tackle and he wasn't there helping out, the bloke made 50 tackles, he ran up with his forwards and did all the 1% like he said he would.

Bottom line was he tried.. Which is more than can be said for most of his pals

That's the thing milky a lot of what ET does goes unnoticed, he was one of our best out there, tackling his ring off and was even involved in the only try we scored. You'll notice once you watch the replay…
 
We did not sign ET to take loads of hitups; he did defend well and got involved in plenty of ball movement. I like what I saw from just a few days with the team.
 
I thought he was good too. Without his quality defense the margin would have been far greater. Sound debut.
 
A very good performance. Set up our only try, made 50 tackles… 4 runs for 43 meters showed the runs he made were good, but a couple more would be handy. But it's not his primary role.
 
Thought he had a stellar game
Went to the line, passed well, tackled all day, got up and ran back into the defensive ling again.

So much of him reminded me of Gareth Ellis

I hope he was wasnt thinking why the hell he signed with the tigers after some of the effort from the boys around him

The only positive out of the game IMO.

One good player in a team is not enough ! I thought they all looked pretty dreadful yesterday, however I did like their gurnseys :laughing:
 
Really felt sorry for ET watching this Interview today on the WT site
http://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2016/05/18/taylor_pleased_to_jo.html

He said he hung in there for as long as he could to get game time but he couldn't wait anymore.
Guess that's how some of our NSW Cup side boys would feel too.

Best bit about ET is Panthers loss our gain
That is the best signing we have had in years.
 
Congrats on your debut

He leads the line speed but isn't a dominant defender , we need players like Sue , Grant to finish blokes off and then get the attackers into positions where they can't get quick play the balls

Will be interesting to see if they can work out how to get him to work for our benefit ??
