You have got it - we all have it.

Hope that is...

It’s an exaggeration mate. Didn’t think I needed to make that clear. No one can say that for sure. The bigger story here is someone who joined the forum an hour ago, telling others what opinions are acceptable and telling them to go support another club.

I agree with you in relation to the bigger story. It also is a pessimistic time as a Tigers supporter.

Personally though I'm looking forward to Hastings coming into the team and giving us a play maker who we can rely on. I could be wrong and I'll turn on him if he is terrible but I think he is going to be a big step up from Brooks.

Haha love the honesty

We’ll just upgrade more nuffies, it’s become our strategy

Dogs after Mahoney now.

I wonder if we're going to sign anyone ever again.

Until the club shows improvement on the field or we bear the fruits of this supposed junior development, we will never sign a marquee player. Imagine how poor our reputation is behind the scenes that the public don’t see.

2022 will be one of the roughest years as I’m sure will stink it up on the field and be publicly linked and rejected to every off contract player of substance.

We couldn't even sign Scott.

Maybe we didn't want Scott.

To me it is just another example of irresponsible reporting by news-limited-intelligence , their rhetoric regarding Bj before during and after his signing was awful to say the least, now they treat him like a holocaust survivor. The Agenda is clear, people love to "click" on negative WT articles on line, they rate exceedingly well, the NRL public love a WT "debacle story".

Woe is us. Win and it all goes away.

I disagree. The dogs won two games all season, and got the spoon. I don't see them get anywhere near the negative press that we do.

@GNR4LIFE and @avocadoontoast if you guys have given up just go support another team or stop supporting the game all you guys post is negative stuff and while I don’t deny the club has made dumb decisions at times you guys never say anything positive this place is riddled with negativity and you two are definitely in the top 5 if you’ve given up which sounds like you have just stop posting to try and annoy everyone else sorry to the admins and mods who run this as it isn’t related to the forum it just had to be said

Hey Glenn ...you forgot to add me .....i think this club is an abortion and I won't be surprised if we are gone within 10 years .....

When are we going to sign a player ranked even in the Top 100 players of the NRL ......
 
The pre season training has just started.
Comp is 3 months away.
And Lemmings are already jumping off the cliff.
Good to see. Love to have you trying to talk up my organisation with potential investors and sponsors.
And for all that put the kick into our CEO, the Board and Chairman ….. ist it just amazing that such an incompetent group be able to attract so many sponsors, membership, could have the Club on sound financial footing and be able to negotiate multimillion COE training development.
Youp …. Just take a running jump and enjoy the fall.

You should really know better how it works for a club which is struggling to gain traction.
You’ve lost me.

Do you get extra competition points for attracting exciting new sponsors .....being on a sound financial footing .....having an amazing COE .....but having a team that would struggle to win the KOE ???

Too many have just accepted mediocrity

If we were signing the players we are in 2021-2022 for 2011/2012 people would be up in arms ......

And you are in full acceptance of everyone who has lead us in this position

Give yourself a pat on the back for being so accepting of ....

I would love it if the Tigers went hard for Christian Welch

With you there

Tamou 2.0

No thanks

Either trolling or you're the worst judge of a Rugby League player I've encountered

I think Melbourne players are good at Melbourne.

I solely blame Adam Blair for our downfall from 2012 until now.

Prove me wrong.

I’m looking forward to seeing Nicho Hynes be exposed for the fraud he his.

Good to see more people comparing their football team to their job like it’s relevant. People can feel how they want

However any business strategist you may want to talk to should tell you that the road to improvement is a chicken and egg thing. You build improvement and success only if you have solid financial foundations first …. That’s a bloody chicken. The egg comes next.

The sticking point between me signing and not is the Ambush ....and the Bingo nights with Sheenius ....but mainly the Ambush

Because they had a coach in his first year, a young squad that wasn't meant to compete and have signed marquee players for next year.

Meanwhile we had a coach deliver us our third straight losing season, progressively getting worse each year. Our 3 most senior players were diabolical and didn't play like first graders (Mbye, Brooks, Tamou) and we've signed 2 players for next year.

The Dogs have shown a commitment to getting better, we've shown a commitment to doing nothing and getting worse in the process.

Cam Munster ...Taumalolo .....Haas.....Brandon Smith ...Ponga just want to be paid to play footy in a successful footy team .....they DON'T CARE what happens behing the scenes in all honesty

When people start looking at the logics of the situation , stop making stupid excuses because they can't deal with FACTS and focus on the simple stuff ...winning games ..making finals

But that would mean you actually have to be honest with yourself .....and that's just a bit hard for some unfortunately

La La land is that way ...............
