Not sure if anyone else heard it this morning.
On 2UE coming out of the 11am news Stuart Bocking took aim at the Tigers. Nothing that we already don't know but it was interesting that he got stuck into them the way he did for a solid 5 or 6 minutes on a show not really known for discussing many sporting issues.
He said along the lines of - 'They talk about Royal commissions into the Banking Sector. There should be a royal Commission into the Wests Tigers'. The club is a basket case who hit a high water mark in 2005 winning the competition and since then have gone from one disaster to the next. They had the chance to be one of the top clubs in Sydney and have squandered every opportunity.
He labelled the performance on Saturday as completely unacceptable for NRL standard. That the players appeared to 'give up'. That either there is a serious coaching issue or the players are very much over rated. He said apart from Tedesco they had no other players at NRL standard. They have paid far too much for certain players over the past 10 years for what they have got in return. For years people keep hearing about the young talent and bright future the club has, yet they have nothing to show for it. They were beaten by 50 plus points by Canberra, not the Broncos. Players scoring with ease the way the Raiders did is a complete disgrace.
He said watching games like Saturdays made him glad he didn't support an NRL team as fans of the Tigers must now have simply had enough. The club has told Jason Taylor that he will be there till the end of the year but by that time they will be fighting out the Wooden Spoon once again.

Anyway as I said, nothing we don't know but thought I would share it as it was interesting listening.
