WESTS Tigers Team V Titans...

They put in a showing like Sunday just gone and they'll be hard to beat.

Good news that ET is available, another ball playing option. Probably another reason why Taylor doesn't see the need to play Farah.

Glad ET is ok. No recognised hooker again worries me. I just hope we don't get any early injuries that could throw the side out of whack.

Wish JAC was there instead of that plodder Rankin

That plodder Rankin is part of the reason we won on Sunday… There are plenty of players that would not stopped Bowen from scoring when he did... There is every chance we don't go on and win after that try was saved... No point changing a winning team and I don't think Rankin is going quite as poorly as a lot of people like to make out...

People are quick to bag Jordan Rankin out ,he is in the team for a reason,he is a brilliant utility back up playing in a very unfamiliar position on the wing,look how great he played against the Cows and how good his service from dummy half was when he needed to play there..the have been much worse recruits play for us over the years,some weren't worth a pinch of s..t,Jordan is a proffessional and a good person…
 
Taylor still needs to pass cognitive tests normally done 3 days after game which is Wednesday…

Rankin might be the best bloke in the world and yes on sunday he was fantastic and in a strong team perforamce was one of our better players. however for the majority of the year he has been well below standard. if the cowboys game is now the level we can expect no one will ever bag him again.

As I said fergie,he has been playing in an unfamiliar position on the wing,put him in a role suited to him and you see the difference,he was fantastic against the Cows,we must give credit to him for that.
 
There's reports on the NRL website quoting Taylor, that Brooks will be giving until game day to play.
 
Yep, NRL reporting Brooks an outside chance for Saturday but should be back next week.
Awesome news. I remember a few years back a player would get injured and be expected to be out for 2-3 weeks and they wouldn't return for months. Good to see we are getting things right in that department

I just want to state "Go Tigers". It's a massive game today. I'd love to see Brooks back and the team fire today.

Yeah mate this is genuinely the most excited i've been for a Tigers game in a long, long time! I'm expecting Teddy to play out of his skin today as he has been a little 'off' since making 26 runs in origin. I'm also hoping Brooks is back to open up our left hand side with Lawrence and Simona.
 
I really don't know how i'd feel about Brooks coming back. Moses seems to lift when he's on his own. Vice verca with Brooks on his own. As they gain more experience, hopefully they learn to co-exist together.
 
I would prefer to see Brooks given another week rather than risking him early.
 
Brooks playing would be great for us, makes it easier for our attack not just to target that right side!

I think he'd put his hand up if he wasn't 100%

If he's fit and ready, he brings so much more to the team then JLJ. Not to discredit JLJ because I thought he was solid after not playing any first grade and then to be brought in against the premiers, but he's never going to trouble any opposition in the NRL.
