Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

whoever asked around benji and his coaching
i would have said there is absolutely no danger of him being sacked, but i believe the club has reached out to chris orr

having a look at his playing roster , maybe we ate interested in samuel stonestreet, but also he looks after BA 🙃

My issue with Benji is he's a hiring from an incompetent board and ceo who absolutely destroyed our club. He gave the guys the bye off for mental health and their physical niggles then we get beat by nearly 50. He's in over his head. Maybe after 5 years in lower grades he could have another crack. But for now we need more than just a coach, we need a father figure, tactician, coach and psychologist all rolled into one.

Brad Arthur , he has coached team to finals and grand final , yep didn’t win it but neither Benji , Sheens have done it in the last 10 years , grab him , he will come cheap I’m sure to help guide a NRL team to finals why would he not want to be apart of this , just keeps him in the loop for a top grade gig down the track ,it would be a win win for him and us

There is a lot of conjecture as to whether the Tigers get the rub of the green with referees and bunker decisions which is happening nearly weekly.
Yet another again the same this week Ben Hunt after scoring a try threw the ball at the Wests Tigers player laying on the ground and mouthing off which was deemed by the bunker to warrant no further action yet tonight Harris-Tavita for the Warriors was given 10 in the bin for dropping the ball on the cowboys player laying on the ground as he walked past him at the end of the tackle count.
Lomax tackles Alaimalo while in the air who is then unable to take any further part in the game yet Lomax is not sin binned or have any case to answer.
I realise that referees are only human and mistakes occur but with technology in the bunker these days the majority of the mistakes made in numerous games each week should not happen.
I don’t believe betting should be allowed on NRL games until they can be consistently refereed within the rules of the game which may see a rapid increase in the standard of refereeing and remove any conjecture of cheating.

Not that it counted towards the ultimate result, but he "missed" that blatant forward pass from Hunt to Luali for his first try, that really sank the boys though. That's when they seemed to give up trying.

BA would be big help to us, along with some good players and some wins, a few wins and a lot changes
 
Strengthening the backs;
Sam Stonestreet, Blaize Talagi, Israel Leota and Ali Leiataua.

Strengthening the pack;
Xavier Willison, Royce Hunt, Alec Tuitavake and Jack Williams.

Realistic & ideal.

Say goodbye;
Naden, Staines, Kepoa, Ice, etc etc
Lachy and Stef wanna go? Also, goodbye
 
Has anyone brought in a Sports Psychologist for the team at all in the past 24 months?

If not then someone isn't doing their job properly.

It might not turn them into world beaters, but they might just start to win the games that they are currently "unlucky" in, like the 2nd Dolphins game.
 
I am sick and tired of hearing Player this and Player that want out of the club. If Galvin wants out, show him the bloody door now.. He is contracted till 2026 FFS....Seriously no player should stay agaist their will or desire....Offer Galvin to Penrith or the Roosters, BUT ensure we get someone worthy as a swap in return....Just like the Storm weren't prepared to release the Fox to us if we didnt give them Talau.(what a mistake!!)....

If it’s true, it’s strange that Galvin wants out when the club is on the front foot with recruitment for a swathe of positions other than his own.

The current roster is still largely a dogs breakfast thanks to Tim and our previous inept management.

And sadly, probably more of concern, Benjis unable to get through. He’s admitted that as well as his troubled game management.

But when your CEO takes off overseas to cut deals to improve the roster, that’s a big effort. No mucking around with the red tape. It doesn’t get more serious an effort.

It’s a pity the press have to be so negative. Just as well, Richo is more or less impervious to it. He said it’s tomorrows fish and chip paper.

Things are going backwards on the field, but we can thank Lee and Co for much of this wondrous experience. We will know more about our fate next year.

look again i got this off a third party source
galvin has asked for a release , he has been asked to move to 14 when latu is fit, to give latu an opportunity, wasnt recieved well by galvin and family , the club would also like to him spend time as an outside back due to the current roster depth

Your "third party source" is FOS.

Galvin was put at five eight all throughout the preseason and is the clubs long term plan at 6.

I find Aaron Woods to be a sad tale.

I don't hate him at all. In fact, I feel sorry for him. Of the "Big 4", I honestly believe he was the one that couldn't leave for HIS own good. Money turned him.

But he was (and I suspect still is) Tigers to his core.

He was never the same player after leaving. I think he lost himself in that whole debacle.

He was pretty much the premier prop in the game. He became forgotten so quickly afterward.

By lost himself do you mean a lack of performance, or public comments or something else
