Wests Tigers Team v Warriors Rd 12

[Magpie1969]

Only love 2 teams: (1) Wests Tigers and (2) anyone playing Manly!

I use to have this on a T Shirt in the 80's. I support Western Suburbs or whoever plays Manly.
Never forget they took Les Boyd and Joe Cool.

Almost our best 17. Hopefully next week in a big game in Newcastle we have Packer, Eisenhuth, BJ in the squad and Brooks in the 6 and Benji at 7. Clarke, Lawrence and possibly Billy Walters miss out in the big games.great depth building. Let’s hope we get no injuries could be. A big advantage in getting into the finals.

Lawrence and Marshall both on 248 games so will be interesting to see if Lawrence lines up for the 250 during next weekends game (vs. Newcastle) in which Leilua is scheduled to return

Think Asu is a stuff up from the NRL. Tigers have Jennings listed on their video and their article.

Unless it was a last minute change. NRL would get their team list from the WT. They wouldn't have just put him there randomly.

I’d believe the tigers site over the NRL site. I’m sure it’ll get fixed up

I was of the belief that all of the clubs official websites were managed by the NRL media guys?

For me its balmain and souths the rivalry from 1998 onwards and 69 gf. Do hate Manly too and Broncos for starting super league and parra well just because there supporters are shocking

where to play Brooks, is he on for walters and walters gives grant a rest seems like a wasted sub. if they are looking at that sort of thing then if Liddle is fit then him from bench and play 2 of marshall reynolds brooks or walters in halves

He's looked pretty good in the two games. Ran around the Broncos and only a last ditch tackle from Croft stopped him. Created quite a bit against the Eels.

Probably not ay but you'd think he'll reach the milestone this year.

Important we attack from the outset -can't miss this chance to add to for and against. For once we are not heavily minus.

Welcome back Twal. Who at the start of the season would have predicted the current bench.

I do wonder who makes way when Musgrove comes back, he needs to be there

Clark? But then Eiso to come back too.. We can't keep carrying a half on the bench with all of this talent coming through in the forwards.

The injury rate has been high for all teams aside from the COVID delay, the new rules have created a faster game played across the park so We are seeing backs being injured as much as forwards.

3 forwards and a utility imo is better value than 4 forwards and I think of those available as a utility Brooks is the best option.

I would be throwing Brooks into dummy half when Harry comes off. Perfect opportunity atm to see how he handles it. New rules could really suit him late in the game.
He plays best running the ball and playing whats in front of him. He's no good at preempting and setting up plays.
Would be an experiment worth a go imo

Really need to be doing better than Clark next year. I know he’s a depth player but we need better depth in that case

Exactly..
What side has a halfback on the bench 🙄

 

[Fade.To.Black]

Think Liddle is not to far of.. so in the next week or so Brooks off the bench Liddle in ! Harry gets a decent rest and a specialist 9 is getting game time .. things looking up .

Liddle would still be a ways off yet. Didn't he only just resume running 3 or 4 weeks ago?

Generic content ..Yes..that is any NRL.com articles Wests Tigers related match previews etc..

Player interviews, coaching insider, player debut, new sponsorship team lists, lower grades etc etc are controlled by the Club media department

All Clubs use the NRL website template tho..

If you want to argue the point I said halfback
Watson isn’t a halfback and I don’t follow Newcastle..
Having Brooks come on with 20 to go is a waste
