WESTS Tigers Team V Melbourne..

I'm more concerned about the players who ratted out Taylor continually running after their number 4 and forgetting about the game…

To put it in perspective Webster has not even had a training session with them.

I would say he just said - put the same team out.

Might be one or two changes on Sunday but I would not expect massive ones.

I think he will be banking on a reaction from the blokes that got pumped on Sunday

He was the assistant coach - if he hasn't seen these guys over the off season and during training then he has been getting his money under false pretences.
 
Ballin out injured his foot at training so given the 21 that was named you would expect Justin Hunt to come into the 17 as McIlwrick can't play 80 mins and no one else could play hooker
 
Although could be a surprise inclusion of Liddle if the NRL approves it - Peck pulled out of the 20s for no reason so perhaps Liddle could be promoted
 
Don't see it happening to be honest,
If we needed to play Liddle we should of named him in the 21 man squad.
Probably a good test for the nrl, but I feel they'll remain firm,
Edwards or ET will have to play hooker.

Some realise that injuries are part and parcel of the game and can't be helped…. You're carrying on as if he's injured himself on purpose

We bought him injured when we didnt need him lets be honest. Now when we need players on the field, get a bit over listening to how great he has been off the field - how on earth people know that without being amongst is equally perplexing because it doesnt seem like there is a lot of good happening there atm.
I hope he makes a difference because we need him to and to date he owes us more than we owe him - and I wish him the very best of luck.

Does he really owe us that much? I am of the understanding Manly are paying most of his contract even still, Ballin is a very cheap pickup for us.

We are paying all of Ballins contract this year manly only subbed last year and his contract is not cheap.So far has been no value for us

Thats different to my understanding. I understand on fairly good authority that it is being subsidised.

Well Liddle was pulled out of NSW cup with no mention of why or an injury so id say we will see him tommorrow

i hope your info is correct
 
Ballin like the injured version of Lawrence.

a good bloke that should have retired a few years ago.

What a great signing.
 
Anyone know how the team selection process works these days? I was u der the impression that if you were not named in original 21 you could not be selected to play. So how is piddle now in the 17? Would tigers have had to request that a and why would the administration allow it?
 
@ said:
Why are we getting all the free to air games when we are in disaster territory - at least our sponsors are getting something out of it.

Televised games are selected before the season starts, BBF. I'd rather we weren't featuring at the moment - our ineptness is just too hard to watch and laid bare for all the League world to see. I'd much rather they had the anonymity of playing a Saturday night game right about now, plus I reckon they play better at night anyway. We might actually have a shot at winning!

WTs applied for and we're granted an exemption due to Ballin injury at training

Well they better win because I will make the trip down to Leichhardt tomorrow.

And this season the tigers have only won when I have attended.
 
what a great signing Ballin has been, what has he played in total? 20mins? Another great decision by JT. Stick a fork in Ballin, he's done (he was done 2 years ago).
 
Hope Liddle plays well tomorrow, we need some spark around the ruck and he's just the guy to provide it. Might kick start Brooks and Moses who desperately need to start playing well.

Yeah agree Willow ,Liddle can hopefully kickstart our attack

If you believe the good judges this is the master v the apprentice in regards to Smith and Liddle , watch there running style's , very similar also
