What a mess ...

[coopy]

I am not sure about all the calls for a new captain - 58 tackles shows a fair amount commitment. While Robbie's actions off the field have been by his own admission questionable, 58 tackles is at least an attempt to lead by example.

Well on a lighter note next weeks round is headlined "Close The Gap" let's face it, it can't get much wider :slight_smile:

Robbie tried tonight but most of his players gave up on him I guess..

I think next week might be the first week at LO that the opposition crowd outnumbers the home crowd. I seriously don't blame any of our supporters for a no show. Time we stand up and show our disapproval of what's happening. People power makes changes, changes are needed

 

[MacDougall]

If that is to be the case we'll get a crowd of 600\. The Roosters have no fans.

It's not Farahs job to make 58 tackles imo. It's more his job to get us moving forward. Being on the back foot for 80 minutes is ridiculous.

The side was clearly different from previous years during the 1st half of the comp, you could see the signs of improvement. Injuries started creeping in for sure, but we thumped the Dogs only 3 weeks ago, since then it's been fairly dismal. The off field drama appears to be having a fairly large effect.

Can we sue Tallis? :slight_smile:

I might be naive, but I look at it this way; At the start of the season we noticed an apparent big change in attitude. Tigers looked different and won big games. Farah and the senior players got them there.
After a big start, the end of season is closing in, big wins against big teams are required, recent 'business as usual' off field dramas with the board and media, who knows what behind closed doors backchat, and the Tigers have mentally dropped the ball. I reckon the've had enough.
It's now up to Farah and the senior playing group to reinvigorate the attitude. I found Farah's comment re 'four games to go we can still make the finals' in the after game presser interesting. He obviously thinks it is still possible. I think it's now just a bridge too far.

This Monday May be the right time to offer any player not wanting to be at the club a release form , effective on the spot
If they don't want to be at the tigers it is a great waste of time , injuries have not helped , players in wrong position
But after that effort tonight , it may be the right thing to do

This would include every player , every player

And when Brooks Moses and tedesco to name a few of our best up and comers say they'll take it are you seriously going to let them go? Seriously?

Having to take the day off because of stress of being caught out lying is laughable.

New captain

Agree. New Captain, it's obvious his "me me me" attitude is toxic

After all hes been thru the last fortnight, youd think players would wanna play for him.
Looks like theyre sick of it too

Not sure about that. After their last training session in sydney, farah got a standing ovation from the players. And what Austin said in the interview about farah being the best captain etc .

58 flops or tackles?

"Close The Gap" is very apt after last night. At least the NRL want Wests Tigers to close the gap and be somewhere near competitive.
