@TIGER Our centres at the moment are Mahe and Marsters and I don’t think he is doing any better than either of them.

@avocadoontoast said in Us vs the Storm **live game thread**:

Can you please explain how you have come to the conclusion he is the best genuine centre in our club? He’s played 3 NRL games in total, only 1 for us. In that game he ran for about 75m and did very little. Since then he’s done very little in CC.

Based on what we’ve seen from Madge if Momirovski was killing it he would be picked.

3 Eisenhuth
2 Aloiai
1 Brooks

I’d have given Mahe some points apart from that last tackle.

@Fitzy05 said in 4th Spot:

If we play like we did against the Storm each week we will win more games than we lose for the rest of the season. Playing against the Roosters and Souths in the next few weeks isn’t going to be easy.

Getting to 4th spot would be a massive step. I think that is aiming a bit too high. We could though but with the cattle we have we would have to play really consistent footy and have some guys perform to their best every week. We would have to win games like the one we just lost against the Storm.

I’d love to see it happen.

I didn’t think he was up to it but he has been good.

@simonthetiger said in Us vs the Storm **live game thread**:

Honestly he is the worst FB in the comp by a mile, compare him to Pap!!!

I don’t think he is anywhere near the worst but he isn’t executing well enough at the moment.

@The_Patriot I thought he was really good throughout the game. That wasn’t a terrible missed tackle either.

@TIGER - Blair was the perfect example. I hope that never happens again.

@2041 said in Luke Brooks:

He’s only underperforming if your benchmark is Andrew Johns.

I think that this is what a bunch of guys are expecting. They are expecting a player at that level because when I watch footy there aren’t many halves better than Brooks and if they are better it isn’t by a whole lot.

The benchmark has to be Andrew Johns, Wally Lewis etc.

@Spartan117 said in New Wests Tigers Podcast - (Helmsey and I) -UPDATED - EPISODE 5 POSTED - Salary Cap/Pascoe Episode.:

No more squandering $$$$ at any half decent or untried player that looks at us.

Exactly. If you want a good team don’t through the cheque book at players who don’t deserve it and do not sign them on long term contracts.
