& spending 3 days in the sin binI am pretty sure JC couldn’t save this team & if he even came here he would be looking for the exits fast.

And he does'nt have speed.He doesn’t run straight. His kick returns would be dogshit.
I was about to label him a less experienced, more talented Kurt Mann.Its hard to put a pin on him what position he plays. Therefore he has class. Thats all I can conclude.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.Madge was'nt tough enough as didnt get support of management. Benji is just clue less.
Yeah. But Benji had a better roster than Madge.Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Our attacking structure was terrible under Madge & his bench rotation was worse. Remember the tries that 80 minute Leilua would concede when out on his feet
There is a reason Porter is making his NRL debut at 27. He has not improved as a player, just found a club where mediocrity brings you into contention.I'm going against the grain here but it's not as bad as most think..
Considering the amount of possession in the first half I think the guys really put in an effort and could have easily just dropped head and gave up.
We had no one on the bench at the end part of the game and these kids just keep on trying.
Latu will only get better with time as he only 19 can defend quite well.
Samual F, Seyfarth, Porter just never give up and do a lot of the 1% no one sees..
NOW ... Once we add a few more quality forwards (replace our current pea hearted ones) and a few backs we will be a lot more competitive.
I know it's hard losing but I am convinced we will be a lot better next year with Laui running this show with Api.
Let's give Richo the off season as he knows what is needed.
A bunch of 20 year olds?Yeah. But Benji had a better roster than Madge.
there is not a lot that Porter can b criticized for apart from his lack of passion for raising his knee;sThere is a reason Porter is making his NRL debut at 27. He has not improved as a player, just found a club where mediocrity brings you into contention.
He is not a first grader
Spoke to the lawyers today and they said It will be very difficult to terminate all these contracts and they advised the best way forward would be to keep them in place and have Balmain Boy as the Super Coach next year and that would get West Tigers to a GF. Problem Solved…We don't have any backs on our top 30-40 that any other club would want. Even Bula would be playing NSW cup for most other clubs.
So at the end of the season we need to offload/terminate the contracts of:
Faatape
Toa
Naden
Sukkar
Staines
Lobb
Feledy
Douiehi
Porter
Matamua
Alaimalo
Klemmer
Bateman
Both Lauliliis and Mason are borderline, both still 18 months away from first grade contention, but highly unlikely to succeed.
If we can do this we have a chance of competing for the 8

Yep Luai will be halfbackIt isn't worth discussing at all because the post is clueless. To sat Luai won't be the halfback is ridiculous
Whatever happened to Josh Schuster ?Galvin isn't a fullback.
I'm not convinced he's a lock, unless he's willing to play 3rd fiddle to Luai & Fainu.
I'm starting to think his future might actually be elsewhere. The ruckus about wanting to know his place in the team, wanting out etc...could be a player that knows Luai is going to be #1 and that other spot in the halves is against a player that has superior ability in Fainu.
Pre-emptive strike to secure a spot to hide the fear/concern they get overtaken within a year.
I think Galvin is a 2nd rower. But, if I'm honest- I'm not convinced he's a better option than Josh Schuster.
That’s a beauty! 🤣I also believe the Wests Tigers fans have discovered a sixth phase of grief after acceptance.. mockery!
Should publish a study on that
Good post and I agree... I'd just add Benji cannot teach these kids anything.There is a reason Porter is making his NRL debut at 27. He has not improved as a player, just found a club where mediocrity brings you into contention.

I think with Luai coming and Api, feeling the assistance on the field... we will some improvement.Good post and I agree... I'd just add Benji cannot teach these kids anything.
He'd probably go OK coaching a team full of 5 year + NRL veterans but he's not the guy to be coaching kids debiting at 18 & 20 years of age
His defence is excellent but he offers nothing going forward for a big bodyThere is a reason Porter is making his NRL debut at 27. He has not improved as a player, just found a club where mediocrity brings you into contention.

I have an idea for next week, Benji can just run the tape of last night's game and just tell the team play like that. Have a good week see you at the game. LolJust watched the presser Benji used his tried and true, the Warriors played the way we wanted to play.
Only backline player that belongs is Bula, just not sold if it's at fullback yet. In D he is good at reading the game but his A is atrocious, has no idea when to shift or hold the ball. He set up the try in the corner yesterday for Staines but there were another 2 - 3 times in the game if he shifts the ball we have numbers but he holds it. Maybe needs some mentoring.I think with Luai coming and Api, feeling the assistance on the field... we will some improvement.
Simply because of the experience and class that'll afford.
Still need to work out the pack and improve the backline somewhat
