WESTS Tigers Team V Parramatta

[Fade_To_Black]

We need a trip to Kiama

That used to do the trick

We need a picnic at Hanging Rock to make a few of the passengers in this club disappear.

The beauty of Idris is of he doesn't work out on the centre's he could still do a job as an edge backrower either starting or off the bench

There are always plenty of rumours going around. I was told that Idris may walk away from league altogether( contemplating going to another sport.)Tupou had been in talks with the tigers but looks to be staying at the roosters.

Isn't Idris a national junior champion at either shot putt or discus ??

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

If we are serious we won't be going anywhere near Idris. We need consistent quality not another potentially talented player who may show this once every few months.

Very interesting read, thanks TT.

I can't believe Brooks and Moses could potentially be earning 400K plus next season. That is absolutely ridiculous.

I'm guessing the club thought they would be further along in their development

Pretty sure it was Discus or Javelin, even got the chance to compete against him at Discus, before he had grown up and lost the puppy fat.

Idris spends too much time playing the pokies down at Rego Bowling club ….... he seems to live down there !

iam sure they would be further along if we had a coach who knew what he was doing and could bring them along rather than hamper them. but there still not worth $400 per season. no wonder we cant afford any second rowers.

At 400K a season it's no wonder that Taylor never ever looks like dropping them back a grade.

Tiger Watto as 'Big Ears' would say OHHHHH Noddddddy!
That's the real reason he signed on. He's got Foxtel and a gig on the side, with the possibility of something down the track.
You got it but does he ? Methinks not.
But it would initially only be in a caretaker capacity and by then the poisoned chalice could become pass the parcel.
My final word for the next month or so would be to hang in there, EVERYTHING will be crystal clear by the end of 2016 if not before - this 'transitional treading water' year shouldn't give anyone an excuse to sell us fans short but there are several agendas at play behind the scenes.
I emphasise none of these should give Taylor a get out of jail free card. If we were to finish worse off than last year there is still no contractual trigger to sack him in 2015 but perhaps his professional pride and loss of face would force him to do the right thing.
I find myself thinking why come 9th and not 16th as that may only serve to disguise the flaws in our structure/s, but even so I still don't want the spoon. Thankfully I haven't sunk that low that I want the team / fans to suffer to punish and humiliate the coach who's major flaw is not being able to identify individual talent with individual strengths and weaknesses. He can't coach at the individual level- the individual must be subjugated and moulded to fit in with his lamentably one dimensional structure/s
Robbie Farah does have significant non football skills off the field which may come in handy in 2017??!
And at the risk of being called a tease there I must leave it until next time.

Robbie Farah to take up management role with the club in 2017 maybe ???

Wests Tigers NRL Coach Jason Taylor has finalised his side to take on the Parramatta Eels tonight in their Round 17 match at ANZ Stadium.

Kickoff for the match is scheduled for 7:00pm with live coverage via Fox Sports 1.

Robbie has a degree in law I think,this could be very,very handy if he stops playing football and takes up a administration position at the club….but then again who knows ????

 

[Tiger_In_The_Gong]

What happened to Lodge?

 

[marzie]

JT doesn't like him either

 

[Sabre]

How does Lodge get dropped while Santi keeps his spot….

 

[TrueTiger]

JT doesn't like him either

It's a shame that it comes down to liking or not liking someone in order for them to get a run….
I like Buchanan as a player,he try's ...but I rate Lodge a better player than Jack...he has a solid go and takes them on up the middle...

 

[Geo]

Wow just wow….

 

[Tuiaki_Chicken_Wings]

Jt has lost the plot. Looks like he hasnt taken a liking to Lodge and puts 2 genuine plodders on the bench I honestly am not sure what Lodge has done to lose his position, but he brings aggression and some great hit ups… Santi and Buchanen absolutely nothing but hey not like we care or anything.

Lodge should be there. He gives size and impact on a bench that needs it.
