Tigers NRL critics have short memories: JT

NO short memory here.
Three weeks ago we lost to a crap team in Newcastle.
Two weeks ago we dominated the storm and STILL found a way to lose.
Last week was back to normal transmission.

This week will determine everything. We play a team who are 1-5 in the same period that we are 0-6\. It'll probably be a close loss and it'll be such an improved performance that it'll cover over the cracks again

Spot on, we lost to a very crap knights, took Melbourne to extra time, but the storm played very bad, any other team would have put them away, that masked over the cracks.

Happy…..........losing a Grand Final 40- blot is worse than losing a regular season game 60-6 I would say. Especially comparing the difference in rosters between WT 2016 and the Storm 2008.
I was down in the dumps this week after last Saturdays embarrassment, but being reminded of the Storm getting violated in the '08 Grand Final has brightened my day immeasurably!

No Cameron Smith

Bet that score line differs greatly if he plays FTB

Best player in the game for many years

Thurston has been the best player in the game for the last few years but anyhow

°Cammy boy played in the GF for them 2 years earlier and they still lost. He obviously isn't the difference between winning and losing.
°If a team folds up and gets pillaged by 40-0 in a Grand Final just because they are missing 1 player then they are pretty soft IMO. I probably can't imagine he would of scored 41 points off his own boot to win them the game. (If he did it would be a handy Fantasy League score anyhow)
 
I think what hurts most is we have had a pretty good draw this year, imagine if we had copped the Cowboys and the Bronks over the past month and guess what, wait till the real grind sets in and we possibly say good bye to three players during the rep season. There are some bleak weekends not far away

I think I will go and jump off the Gap!
 
No its the coach. Period..

You can't keep saying that its a team full of young guys AND blaming them. Forget about last week, the rest of the games we have played we were in and could have won. The team has put it totally BUT they are completely rudderless. They dont know what to do in the clutch plays. The period before and after HT is killing us, we are playing the wrong style of footy.

ALL of these things are coaching. If the players werent putting in I could blame them. They are trying there arses of (maybe not last week) but they are making it up as they go along.

^Who doesn't want to win games? If they put in and lose then that is life, can't really ask for much more. If they put in and win then that is just a bonus obviously.
Just wanna be able to watch them with pride and at the end of the game be able to say 'my team mightn't be the most talented in the comp but no team tries harder', that would be a satisfying feeling that I can't remember having too often as a supporter of WT.

Do you really think they aren't trying ? I don't buy that line either. Do you really think we lack talent ? I don't think our squad is that bad.

Us getting beat by 54 points is normal transmission?

FTB I didn't say Storm win , but I reckon it is a 10 point game at worst

You don't rate Smith , but I see week after week he is your fantasy league captain :wink:

Hypocrisy
 
yup gotta agree

first night this year ive just sat there in disappointment at our effort and committment

sure ive been pissed off other weeks but almost always it's execution in attack, crap penalties, being outmuscled and outplayed due to ability not effort in the middle 40 and things like that. things we can learn from and do better (or recruit better) - but not a blatant disregard for our jersey for 80 minutes.

lol short memories? didnt read the article but short memories would show 6 straight losses.

You wonder if he was actually serious or just trolling us. I think he is serious. It's crazy.
 
Mid year Board meeting with JT…...So how do you think Where travelling JT ?
" Look guys we might be on a 10 match loosing streak but it's not what it appears "

I dare say where we finish at the end of the year will determine his position....let him ride out the year and go from there .
So many players in our Squad shouldn't even be playing 1st Grade .

I will give you blokes and gals something to chew over…I had the pleasure of enjoying an old Balmain players company over the weekend,he is in his Seventies,his grandson played for the WTs 6/7 years ago....I won't name names because it is irrelevant to this conversation,however he told me "" while Farah is associated with this club you will always have internal dramas""......its unbelievable since Farah has been in the team we have LOST 6 games straight....make of it what you like ...seems like another coach may bite the dust....

While we are at it ,apparently the Reggie's are playing at Moss Vale,my home town on the weekend,I will have my scouts in place to see what these sensational replacements for our NRL team play like,I have to work...keep you posted,go the Tiges tomorrow night....

All we can do is wait till he's gone. Sad really, but looking forward to the day.

True story but my Auntie's brother in laws sisters second cousin is from a long line of Tiger players. He said on his deathbed that Robbie Farah was the antichrist. That was honestly his last words.

Make of that what you will but my take is if JT gets Robbie on side we are going to win a lot of games. Can you imagine having the devil himself playing for you. You'd be unstoppable.

Farah can not be made a scapegoat for our recent run of outs, but he like everyone involved with the tigers should shoulder some responsibility.

As for being this trouble maker behind the scenes, I have never ever seen anyone produce a scrap of evidence other than hearsay. I could be wrong, but I say your innocent until proven guilty.

One thing I would say on Farah that father time has caught up with him and he is a long way away from his glory days, but there is plenty of effort
