Just a post for a bit of a laugh, I seen this season preview on news.com.au today, this bloke Sam Clench supposedly wrote it, what an absolute moron…
How something so factually in-accurate can be published in main stream media I have no idea, but here is his assessment of us :smiley: :
WESTS TIGERS
>
Last year: Missed the finals
>
Biggest strength
Robbie Farah is always scheming out of dummy half, and his interplay with the forwards will be crucial. Can Farah make a decidedly average pack seem potent?
>
Biggest weakness
The Tigers haven’t really added to the squad that got walloped so frequently last season. Meanwhile, they’ve lost Benji Marshall, Blake Ayshford, Lote Tuqiri, Joel Reddy, Eddy Pettybourne and Yileen Gordon. It’s hard to see how they’ll get better results with less talent.

Best player: Robbie Farah
>
Prediction: 16th
I'm not begrudging him predicting us to finish last, but he claims that we have not added to our squad? 😱pen_mouth: 😕 , So I guess I just imagined the signings of Halatau, Richards, Taupau, Lulia, Paterson ? :laughing:
He refuses to count those players are additions to the squad, but claims Yileen Gordon as a "loss" for the club, despite him being signed THIS off-season and re-leased before this pre-season... :laughing:
He botches quite a lot of other teams' previews as well, an absolute tool, here's the full article if you fancy a laugh:
