Official Wests Tigers Team v Raiders

[Juro]

All I can say is thank God Richards is back! At least he can kick goals, providing we actually score any tries of course.

Don't forget his kick-offs. Will get at least 1 go at them…

His kick offs have caused us some issues as well

Tedesco gone for the season v Canberra

Happy that was Tedesco's fault not Pat's.

There was no need for Teddy to go in as hard as he did. I understand that is how he plays the game but he also needs to learn there are times when it is worth going absolutely 100% and times when less than that will do the same job without the risk.

If State Cup and Under 20's are chances for titiles then I will try and keep their teams in tack.

NRL is rubbush so at least try and have some success at the club going into 2015.

I am glad Hitchcox got an opportunity and does provide some energy when he runs. Should have been picked over Rowe long ago.

Never understood why Koro was let go. Stupid management with a team short of pace and quality backs. He did score 3 tries on debut.

This conversation has come up Barra

As I said once the game starts your brain just switches off to what can or may happen on the field

All you are focussed on is the ball as a fullback

Without trying to be disrespectful , when you start focussing on something else you become Tim Moltzen

Worst. Lineup. Ever.

Don't worry Potter and Mayer are supposed to get off their butts and apply for 2nd tier cap exemptions. Then the 1st grade will at least look better than the State Cup team.

I don't think it was anyone's fault. The kick was perfect as was the chase. Richards dropped it right on the goal line and Tedesco was there to absolutely drill Campese. You couldn't recreate that impact if you tried, and it was a very unlucky outcome. Both blokes copped it kneecap to kneecap, but somehow Campese's fine to walk it off and Tedesco's out for the season. It's just been that kind of year.

I hope Tedesco returns with full confidence in his body. We've seen with Moltzen what happens when they're not 100% sure of their rehab and have to baby an old injury.

This should spell the end of Rowe surely?

Why? If this season's anything to go by we'll need at least 6 fullbacks for 2015,

The Faders will win this by 16 methinks. Too many injuries and conjecture about Mick's future for any other result.

 

[Cosimo_Zaretti]

^^I count 3 of our grand final winning team in that lineup Geo. I wonder how many of this week's team against the Raiders will be there next time.

 

[GoldXR50Leroy]

In the history of the club when was the last time the Tigers won at least one of their 2 remaining games for the season, I was keen on making the trip but I still have memories how cold the ground at Canberra can be.
