The First 4 games are hard on paper but totally win-able if we are **disciplined** and play a **composed** style of footy even if we fall behind.

2018 first five games vs
Roosters Win
Storm Win
Broncos narrow rorted loss
Eels Win
Storm Win (That's right we beat Storm twice in 5 rounds!)

With the squad we had back then which was arguably worse than today's mob I think we are set for a promising opening to the year.
Rd 5 team list

What a terrible squad.
 
Don't know "what's going to happen", but loving that we as supporters will certainly get to watch better footy sans dew beneath natural light with WT playing the first of nine consecutive afternoon games to roll out our season.

A lot more excited than I expected to be as last year drew to a close, on the back of great squad shuffling since and optimistic that we will be happy after the eighty next Sunday, knowing that we will improve further with Doueihi to return and combinations forged.

Firstly, i dig the sans... nerdy.

I think we will win next week or come close.

Blore, musgrave and AD are big outs.

Agree we have a good opportunity to really make stides forward in 2021.

If we jag a win or 3 in the opening rounds we could really exceed expectations and recruit for an even better 2022.

This game cant come quick enough

Yeah that Jack Wighton fella is a pretty good player too

He is but without go forward he is mitigated like all teams. Tackle Papalii hard and fast often and see how the Raiders react.

Williams, Hodgson, CNK and a few others aren't bad either.... definitely more than just Papa to worry about

Article the day after the game..

“Canberra Raiders no chance against a new look Wests Tigers”

Honestly I believe that we’ll win big, instead of the previous years when we vs the Raiders losing 50 some amount.

For the try’s I’ll go

Nofa
BJ
Liddle
Brooks

Brooks/Douie 4/4

Hope Douiehi doesn't kick any goals.
If he does we'll get docked our points👍

10 out of 10 for your research.

and Hodgson never tears us another one ...does he
 
This is the ideal time for us to make a statement. 3 out of Madden, Mbye, Simpkin and Laurie will probably be there which is a bit of unknown (as a spine, not just individual players) but I like the rest of the team.

What a terrible squad.

Yes they were but they got the chocolates against some high quality opposition that year. Proof that any team is likely if they turn up with the right attitude.
