You know what? I've gone completely in the opposite direction with my thoughts and feelings.
After over 50 years of avidly supporting first Wests and now Wests Tigers - heart racing throughout every match, jumping up and down like a maniac at games, running out of the loungeroom because I couldn't bear to look at the TV in close matches, angry & depressed when they lose, elated when they win - I seriously now could not care less!
I am completely unemotional when watching the Tigers play now, I don't care if they win and I don't care if they lose - my God, I never in all my life thought that I would end up like this!! I thought that I would always have that emotional connection when watching my footy team go around, no matter how much I tried to stay calm and disassociated, but all the years of turmoil, mediocrity, mismanagement, bad press, bad decisions, disunity, constant rebuilding phases, lack of fight shown by the players and potential never realised have taken it's toll and I genuinely couldn't give a sh!t anymore.

Flippedy you do care your on here. You are like a lot of us we are fed up… it burns inside but deep down we do care more than the people running the show or most of the players performing in the show. The only option we have is stay away not contribute financially because we are not appreciated nor respected. This year is my first year I've kept away since the wests tigers were born... I will not contribute one dollar until the club is managed professionally and members have a say. The current set up is bs....

:laughing: , but hobbo could be smashed but still recognises that Brooks is crap.
Paws Brooks could be good kid from a wonderful Family that is all warm and fuzzy but on the field he is crap and is time to move him on and cut our losses of years of investment.

Well once Woods, Tedesco and Moses have been signed by other clubs maybe we can give Brooks a contract upgrade ?

Give him a taumololo contract!!
Tigers can't recognise sunk costs. It's a joke.

The only thing that Moses is carrying is his inflated ego, and a big head.
He's gone backwards from his short period of adequacy last year. And is not much better than when he came into first grade.
it's time he was in reserve grade to learn how to play And how to stop talking himself up.

If I had carte blanche. These are my first orders of business.
I would keep Brooks over Moses. I still think if given the same cattle to work with Brooks is the better player. He is also less of a loudmouth. He also carries the lower price tag. Brooks is a former NRL Rookie of the Year. He has put on tons of tries. Moses is nowhere near the ballplayer Brooks is. Moses closes his eyes and heaves spirals. He is an imbecile. I wouldn't re-sign him at all let alone 800k.
I would replace Lawrence with a gun backrower. Not McQueen. Someone like Hess. Someone that worries the opposition. Aloiai is decent but learning. Lawrence needs to be upgraded.
I would replace Moses with Widdop.
I would let Woods go and replace him with any 2 of Matulino, Evans and Asofa Solomona.
I would give Tedesco the keys to the club on the proviso he sacked Isaac Moses.

FRUSTRATION. I usually only get to a couple of games a year but as things have fallen i have seen the Canberra and St George games. Both times i left thinking why do i do it to myself. You can tell the players aren't doing it on purpose but they just aren't good enough. There were two things that struck me today. We made a break and Teddy was through and had 7-8 dragons players around him and not one tiger in sight. The dragons players make breaks and at least 1 or 2 guys is nearby giving them options. The dragons still made mistakes but were far more clinical and smart in their approach. We have now scored a total of 4 tries in the last 4 games and todays was from a knock on in the in goal and Nofo's a couple of games ago was from an intercept. Brooks and Moses wanted control of the team and look how we are going. I understand Brooks is out at the moment but Moses looks like he has no idea. 10 metres out from our own line and he picks out nightingale. If he wants his $900k he is dreamin.

Oh TIGER I went with your criticisms early, then you went soft on Moses. If he's our only attacking option God help us, he's reverted to the 2014 MM, full of bad options and missed tackles. Whatever happened to him the back end of last year, the pills have worn off.
