WTF – Wests Tigers Faithful Podcast

Aaaand we're back!

Apologies it's been so long. Between Reedman's Euro Summer and the Joe McCord Domestic Drinking Tour we've been far too busy to worry about the league's poverty franchise... until now!

Introducing Part One of our end-of-year review, commencing with the team and coaches. General small talk evolves into full blown stupidly complicated statistical analysis, followed by a look at each quarter of the season. We also have some big philosophical questions and talk a little about the upcoming Granny.

We promise we're back for good. See you guys next week.

Enjoyable podcast. Love the ‘Eye Test’ stats review which paints a great picture on where our major weaknesses in the squad lie. Our recruitment so far shows we are on the way to addressing some of these.

contact, wrestle, strength and conditioning are the biggest things we need to work on through preseason.

still some recruiting to be done, but I think as you say our signings have seemingly addressed our yardage and kicking issues.
 
Sorry guys, does anyone know what's happened to Robbie Mears, not coaching any of our junior's???

Defensive technique?
Our lines are easily confused.

contact and wrestle is technique, so yeah, it absolutely must be worked on. it’s pivotal.

Yes but communication is also a huge concern.
When our line is slightly broken, no one trusts each other, most miss their assignments, we can’t recover from the slightest of setbacks and their is general confusion.
The on-field leaders and fullback are not directing the defence.

If the players who regularly miss their defence assignments keep getting selected in NRL regardless, they more often than not do not worry too much about fixing the problem.
Depth and competition for NRL positions is key in this regard, but that is difficult when we regularly have around 10 players in our top 30 that are very young, inexperienced at NRL level and not showing enough in the lower grades to command an NRL position,
 
Love the detailed statistical analysis.

This is incredibly insightful.

The club and coaches really need this data.
