Wests Tigers Team v Brisbane

[yeahcaz]

Everybody whinged about the young guys not getting a run....now they are and we have to keep some of the core of experienced players we still whinge....nobody but Madge and co know whats going on with Blore or Seyfarth...he could be letting them get more experience in KOE cup or letting them gradually get over injury(Blore)....I will wait and see what comes of this game...

KOE is cancelled for the year

Mikaele for Seyfath that’s a joke !!!No surprise for the chairman’s choice that’s a give me every week ,If Blore can’t break into this pack that’s an issue …
A big touch up coming this weekend maybe enough to remove the coach finally!

 

[yeahcaz]

Its interesting how Madge made the call out to his team to man up , and yet those who have done the opposite are still in the team.
Those who have shown promise and abit of gusto are not even in the seventeen or eighteen, whatever.

I see that as those who don't man up are on the way out - permanently. MBye's very likely last chance.

I don’t. He hasn’t performed all season, he’ll be in the team next week regardless. Same as Tamou, the Jet it won’t change

Be prepared for Tuki to play only last 10 mins unless there is an injury.

Are these the real "men?"

Joe Jackson asked that question

Are these the real "men?"

Joe Jackson asked that question

"Is he rough or is he rugged
Is he cultural and clean
Now it's all change – it's got to change more
'Cause we think it's getting better
But nobody's really sure"

Spot on

Congrats Tuki and Paugua, i also agree with lots of people on here that Blore n seyfarth shouldn't of been dropped. I would rather Tamou gone Twal to start with Ute and Mybe gone as well. That would free up the 2 spots for Seyfarth n Blore

Thats fine , im ok with him playing just ten minutes or whatever he is given. And to be honest im not expecting him to absolutely kill it in his debut for us. (if he does it will benefit him) But the fact that he is getting a go is enough , and it shouldnt end there. They should start bringing up afew from the KOE team so they get a taste and build that confidense.

He’s got a tendency to just throw the ball out the back. I hope there is someone backing him up otherwise this mob will crucify him on Monday.
Good to him and Pauga

Good luck to him and Pauga

im glad we have a new centre to look at. I dont mind him trying something different. TBH seyfarth seems hard done by but his young so its not that big a deal.
Mikalele in the starting side should help with the go-forward early.

 

[Tiger5150]

Congrats to Tuki and Pauga. I really thikn Im going to need to take a break from this forum. The level of instinctive kneejerk reactions by some are doing my head in, which they are entitled to,

 

[yeahcaz]

First off anyone who thinks broncos will smash us has rocks in there head. They only just beat Cronulla who played absolutely terrible. If the margin is 13+ I wouldn’t even let Maguire take the press conference.

Next, it’s Crazy how 2 debutants can mask that this team is still practically the same ? You move one player from an edge and play a rookie and then you have basically the exact same edges that have conceded 150 odd points in the last 3 weeks. I actually like the starting props but this team just further shows how big of a dinosaur Maguire is. Mikaele is not a 13, has no ball playing whatsoever and has some of the worst hands I’ve ever seen.

Does Maguire suffer from CTE? Like he bitches and moans about his players playing like garbage and the only 2 players that leave the squad are 2 kids that barely get to play and they’re replaced by 2 more kids.
I seriously hope this team doesn’t want to play for him anymore and this game gets him the boot because he’s obviously asking for it. I don’t buy the whole he’s playing the duds as their last chance, they’ve all been on their last chance for weeks. If we lose this week and Maguire is still here for next week, the team will be no different. Rant over but this is genuinely pathetic

Also, Pauga may not be who we think he is…

Glad to see Doueihi back to 6. I think he will be a better player having spent time in the centres. I'm hoping Brooks can keep up his form, as he struggled a bit when Doueihi was his halves partner. I guess all that matters is we win, whoever dominates that combination is irrelevant in that case.

Happy to see two debutants. Go well, young men.

 

[supercoach]

Garner and Luciano = Protected species

Without doubt our no1 problem area and Madge keeps rolling them out. The guy in reserve grade that came from the Storm system needed a chance.
Also picking Nofo and Jet is madness. Maybe Madge is after a payout!!

I am feeling a bit for Brooks it must be hard to play every other week with a different player next to him and Doueihi is not a 5/8 as 5/8’s pass the ball .

Weird time to bring in some newbies. Pauga hasn't played for over a month and Tuki's last game was 19th of June...

Talk about throwing the lambs to the wolves.

No wonder we suck at developing players long term.
By the time any of these lads come good they'll be poached by another club for sure...

 

[facepalmer]

Agree with most. Seyfarth should still be there. Mikaele at 13 is strange. Just really strange. Uto and Mikaele did earn their places. But this reeks of him being just afraid to drop Tamou. Tamou has been the worst performing forward this year and it's clear to everybody.

Shuffling the deckchairs. Simpkins isn't ready,. Pauga will probably do okay.

 

[LARDS]

Might have been mention before but I reckon Mikeale at 13 is a smokey . He'll drop to bench and Tuki to lock for most of the game.
