You don't like sardines, what's wrong with you man, breakfast of champions.

Especially with a nice coconut cake for afters.

Mmmm coconut cake.

I wouldn't take too much she says seriously mate.

No, it's all good mate.

I believe that I'm perfectly balanced in my views and I put it all down to having one blue eye and one brown eye.

I would have him off the bench to cover both in our best 17 .,,he is probably starting a lot given injury

The best coach I have ever seen picked him to start in 2 grand finals as an edge …are you a better judge you think ?

He had a bloke making multiple tackle breaks and line breaks on the other edge. It hasn’t worked too well without him this season.
Too many people underestimate the importance the edge back rowers have on a teams attack. If your edge second rowers are not genuine tackle breaks and line break threats, it effects the teams halves and the teams overall attack suffers.

He’s on $400k now. Dunno if he expects a pay bump? Good mates with Tiny

If we got him for 400k it would be good business.
Any more than that and it would be not so good business.

Sardines for breakfast reminds me of a line from a Supertramp song.

Can we have kippers for breakfast, mummy dear, mummy dear.

Other teams forums actually talk about the on field football stuff because it’s enjoyable to them .. even if only occasionally for some

Nothing that I'm seeing on field at the moment am I finding enjoyable.

But we need to use the money to prop up a soccer team.

I was surprised when they partnered up with APIA.
Not sure what the theory behind that is ?
Alll I know is most if not all within the HBG hierarchy ideally want Wests Magpies to be highly successful in the NSW Cup.
They would be well aware you need to spend money to develop your pathways and keep your best pathways talent if you want them tj feed through and help win games for Wests Magpies along their journey tj hopefully becoming Wests Tigers regulars.
This being the case, why would those within the HBG hierarchy want to deliberately do anything to Georgia ?
It makes no sense to me.

I think this is a good time to take a pause and look at Luai. He was exceptional in his last season at the Panthers with Cleary out half the season. It’s partly why we were all so hyped about his signing. Any player that we sign, there has to be question marks as to whether they are going to bring their best to this club. Especially on marquee money. Because apart from Api, there aren’t many others at all that have come here and busted a gut.

Tigers fans will meltdown when he becomes the premier 6 again when playing for PNG... is it possible its us, and not them, thats the problem?

Look at Ipap

It's wrong though. You want to have talent in all grades, players pushing for a promotion, winning and creating a culture of success.

Just because you have someone signed up doesn't guarantee they're going to perform, or that you may not want to replace them at some stage.

You want as much talent as is possible. When there's no cap it's easy for clubs like the dogs, Broncos, wahs to horde young talent and generate necessary depth

In an ideal world yes. I don’t think Wests Tigers operate in an ideal situation financially (as confirmed by the last CEO), and upping payments to juniors who are going to leave anyway is stupidity.

Kids 17-18 who want success should be focusing on improving their game, not their earn. I’d rather see us spend on the coaching and development side of things.

 

[Betterdays22]

Look at Ipap

For every Ipap there is a Bateman I suppose.

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

This thread is insane! I don’t know if I’m reading about junior pathways, gay footballers, bigots, something someone said about how we’re not going to pay overs for players anymore, but no one can remember who. My life is confusing enough already, i think I’ll come back and check to see if we’ve signed someone at a later date 🏃‍♂️

Tell your wife to remind you to come back here soon

Look at Ipap

I think Sefarth would look good playing in the Penrith pack

I don’t think it’s beyond the realm of possibility at all.

 

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

I don’t think it’s beyond the realm of possibility at all.

If Matt Eisenhuth could be a part of four premierships, then Alex Seyfarth could win twenty playing for Penrith.

It makes no sense to me.

If they want the Magpies to be successful, they might wanna have a look a what the Jets are doing
- actually recruiting and paying decent players.

I think the main aim From those guys is to see Magpies running out - and not the Tigers, that’s it.
They don’t care how it’s run, if it wins or what not.
They just want it to exist

Matt Eisenuth is the type of player your school would say is coming to visit describing it as a four time premiership winner. Then when he rocks up - you see Matt Eisenhuth. Pathetic.

So one can only assume that you believe that bigots are born that way then.
