Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Yes this year feels different. But I have fallen for the hype too many times to even think about tigers making the 8 with out seeing a ball passed in the season.
Depends if the coaching staff can organise the defence, including kick chase and high ball diffusion.
I expect them to make the 8, given how many players in the squad have experience playing big time footy.
 
If our roster isn’t good enough to make the finals where almost half the teams in the comp make it, then maybe Richo isn’t doing as good a job as some claim. It shouldn’t be a high bar to sneak into the 8 at least once in 15 years.
His only been at the desk 12 months 🤦‍♂️

Some player let him down.
He was also a lot less experienced back then.
What do you want me to tell you?

it’s not as easy to make the Top 8 as you suggested .., particularly when you have a shyte team …. The same as Benj had last year …he had a worse team by far than Ivan had

We'll make the 8 for one very simple reason:

"Luai of the Tigers"

Signed for 5 years with us - that's potentially 9 Premierships for him. Only to be exceeded by Galvin who will lead us to a Dragons record equally 11 wins in a row! By far the best of the Modern NRL Era.

Sorry, my crystal ball only runs to 2036. I turn 80 in 2037 so I'll probably be living a home watching replays of 2005 in reality! 🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯
 
A big part of our 2024 defensive problem was our attack. We couldn't get out of our own end and had an average kicking game. So we hand the ball over in good field position and are on the back foot set, after set. We have improved that aspect of the roster and some.

We had some good attacking stats, but poor field position and a few pea hearts in the roster. Now we have moved them on we should compete.

We need to get Sione over the line; I guess we will see what happens with Bateman. I expect Richo has a plan for the moves that will follow Hunt being sighed by the Donkeys. I don't think we are quite done in the 25 market yet.
