I wouldn’t touch any backs. None ever make it. It’s forwards tou want.

I remember that Balmain in the late 80's/early 90's broght a centre from UK to partner Brasher. He was a great goal kicker and centre and propelled the team into the top of the semifinals . It wasn't Schofield who was a very good centre as well.

Ellery Hanley in 1988 (Played for Western Suburbs in 89) and Andy Courier in 89 and 90. Hanley also returned in 96 and 97!

Courier is the player you are talking about though!

Courier is the one

A great goal kicker as well

Is this the game where big Bruce McGuire scores the match winner to take it from 14 - 10 to a 20 - 10 victory

The NRL has a very limited supply of top notch players. So when they do come on the market they are naturally not short of very good offers so of course they are going to look at a club where they are likely to taste success.

Really the only way for us to go is target the elite youngsters, develope them and hopefully retain them, and it seems that is our game plan at present.

As I said, 30 years ago. Let’s talk about the modern game.

You can't target Woods,Tedesco, Moses and attack them personally for their decisions without acknowledging that our club was not run in a professional manner in any shape or form and every player in the game knew it - and none better than them. They could have all stayed and taken the money offered, but as we have seen with other players money is not enough to lure/keep players who want more from the game. The club needed to change what was happening off the field, and we are suffering still for that, far more than any decisions Teddy Woods or Moses made in regard to what they believed was best for them at the time.


It helps when you contribute to threads instead of rehashing the past.

Andy Currier I think
 
As a current Wests tiger supporter sometimes you can only live in the past. What are we going to talk about ? Recent signings and 2020 prospects? Even Rothwell is pushing his teams' prospects for 2020.

Great win, but heart breaking end result in the GF.

Have to say the ruck and general play was so much faster than today.

Refs knew when to blow the whistle and where to stick their noses in back then.

Ellis gets a lot of of praise, but everyone forgets about Mark Flanagan. He was damn good.

He was ok
