TEAM LIST Jersey Flegg List: Round 23 vs Roosters

[Cobarcats]

Email the nswrl and complain that their product offerings isn't good enough. they should be streaming all NSW cup and Flegg games that aren't televised. The QRL does this. It's not expensive, they just don't care enough to stream more than one or two games a weekend. If they know the demand is there they'll do more... I encourage everyone to complain...

I went to weststigers website to see if there were any crumbs to step up against Saints and there were no stats for the game against North Sydney.
I know I'm sounding like a broken record but they make it so hard for supporters to get a gauge on lower grades.
Gone are the days when you could go to your home ground and watch all grades.
If the NRL take away that privilege they should, as you say, show more pathway games.
A lot has deteriorated over the years. The brutality of a forward battle has gone, nearly nonexistent. Off on a tangent now but there is so much that is wrong with our game.

You have no idea Penrith were in a similar position a few years back they had a good group of young players who are now the mainstay of the first grade squad first grade players come via a strong junior pathways systems which the WT'S have been got their act together and have a very good pathways system in place.

Well enjoy your pathways and keep comparing us to Penrith.
I’m a realist and I judge by what I see in first grade.
If we have decent juniors coming through, we desperately need to bring in external hire to help wash the stench of Wests Tigers from them before we embark upon another generation of defeat.

If you can look beyond the dismal performances of our first grade team, the strength of our junior teams offers hope for the future.

Those who don't follow junior football might not appreciate the significance of beating the roosters twice, but this is a team brimming with future rep players, skimmed from other systems around Australia and New Zealand. The Roosters attract the best talent by offering obscene amounts of money and elite coaching + facilities.

We're running third in Jersey Flegg, Wests won Harold Matts and Balmain came third in Ball. Brighter days lie ahead.

Yeh thanks TS. I've got that one. I'm alluding to... as much possible should be on our website.
If you go to teams then KOE there were no stats this morning and it isn't updated with general info.
I would be pushing big time our pathways media. Like when the young fellas went to Tamworth there was no start sheet. Just little things.

I think the club needs to be pro-active with this, the nrl and nswrl hate us, they are our enemy, we need to make this happen, live or even replayed, all the way down to the 15’s. I’d watch em all, maybe not all of em live. We need to get Kayo, as a sponsor and as part of the agreement they show all Tiger’s games. First 3 grades live and the rest replays with in 24hrs. Also we need to play as many grades as possible on the same game day. We need to make the pathway clear for all to see. Grandma and pa can watch little jimmy from a 15 year old to when he makes grade. Build a family club that we can all buy into.
Problem is we also need a home ground, training fields, COE, and a club all in one place not spread across Sydney.
Coach’s need to learn and a pathway too, I wanted something like this when sheens was last our coach so I like the Benji under sheens progression but we only did this through desperation not good planning.
Actually, that is it, good planning, that is what this club has lacked since day dot.

The problem is the NRL and NSWRL own all rights to players, so they dictate what info can be used on clubs websites. The club's don't have much control over player profiles, stats etc. All they can do is write articles/film interviews with these players (which our club chooses not to do).

I didn't know that. Cheers.
32/41 players don't have profile photos. Other gripes too but it's negated by what you've said.
Oh well, mushrooms we are then 😒

This from the guy imploring the club to resign AD at any cost last week?
Have a look at your own thoughts, you know less than most

I know a good player when I see one he would be snapped up by most clubs if he goes to market

Haha doubt it.
The bloke has always been average

He's not delivering at the moment. Sadly.

He got sonned badly by Angus.

Needs to get his head in the game if he expects to have a solid career.

With Hastings and Brooks not there he's a bit of a one man band at the moment unfortunately I don't think Madden is the answer to our problems.

I agree.

Madden has also disappointed.
I'm really not sold on Laurie either.

I really hope they're planning on addressing our issues (through recruitment)

Laurie is a very good player He's brave, safe under the high ball, quick and has a great passing game.

Laurie is a very good player He's brave, safe under the high ball, quick and has a great passing game.

I've also seen him cat it in defence multiple times and he's good for a dropped ball 1 out of 5 times...

I see the potential but imo that's all it is at the moment.... potential.

I trust we'll see a lot of our players improve after a solid pre season and the expectation for next year will be higher.

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

The club has two of the best players coming in so there is a change straight away for next year with Api (Koroisau) and (Isaiah) Papali’i. Isaiah is committed to our club – he has said so, his agent has said so, I don’t want to hear (he isn’t going) again.

“Our under 20s are in the semi’s with one more game and hopefully they can finish top three. That is the head of our pathways. We are spending money in a big way to keep those kids and we will also give those kids opportunity.

“We are putting more money into it next year, the year after and the year after.”
