    • RE: FITNESS & GYM

      If you want it enough lads, you’ll do it

      I needed to for my kids.

      I’m 170cm.

      And was 121.5kg in August 2018.

      Enough was enough. Did it the hard way, gym, diet, dads, group.

      By June 2019 was down to where I needed to be - 71.3 kilos.

      Now sitting around 74 and building muscle. Best Shape I’ve ever been in, however more goals than ever.

      Not doing it ten years ago. Im currently 38.

    • RE: Confirmed: Matterson released from Wests Tigers.

      He.

      Signed.

      A.

      Contract.

      That’s all there is to it. He can negotiate his terms at the end of the contract just like the rest of us hard-working folk.

      Unless we get an absolutely brilliant deal stick his ass in Canterbury cup for the next 2 years.

      As Gorden Tallis alluded to it taught him a valuable lesson and this precious piece of work needs to be taught one on the value of a contract.

      As I’ve said before and I will say again it’s not the tiger’s problem that he couldn’t negotiate a better deal at the start. It’s his.

      If we’re also able to medically retire Ben Mautilino, we can top up Chris Lawrence, and BUY another Ryan Matterson.

      I don’t mean to sound so clinical about it but hey it’s true.

    • RE: FITNESS & GYM

      Thanks for the love lads. At the risk of jumping out on anonymity of the forum I just wanted those of you considering making changes, who are just on the fence to go and do it - and to put a real face on it.

      It’s easy to hear the stories, it’s far more powerful to see one.

    • RE: John Tedesco unloads on Issac Moses..

      People forget the Tedesco family have money - and it’s not just leeching off James. They were always well off, and sent all their lads to Private school, and did it easily.

      This is actually BRILLIANT. He doesn’t care who he steps on, and James TBH wouldnt care either as even if the Roosters put pressure on him to get his dad to STFU, he doesn’t actually need the money (Even though he’s on stupid coin)

      When you mess with people who dont give a crap about where there next paycheck comes from, you can start to see some action.

      Good on someone for finally having the balls (lol, and admittedly the deep pockets) to say something.

    • RE: Chris Lawrence Re-Signs - One year deal for 2020

      I’m happy it’s over more than anything TBH.

      I just hope it was either at the right price, or if i was more than what was initially reported - it hopefully confirms we’ve freed up some cap dollars with Matto, and possibly Mautilino now being off the books.

    • RE: Pat Richards, the art of kicking

      I was a staunch defender of Taylor, but his operative to RIchards to CEASE doing these style contested kickoffs because it potentially gave up 10 or 20 metres on the kickoff was the most BRAIN DEAD coaching decision I think I’ve ever seen. Creating even a 20% chance of retaining the ball over the course of a game might result in possession being retained possibly twice a game?

      To be honest, Patty’s kicks created a 50/50 chance most times they were executed properly.

      Well, maybe not the most brain dead - although it’s up there with Kyle Lovett in the centres…

      Just keep turning up Guys… thats the key - and yes, many kudos to @Demps for keeping everyone on their toes here.

      It’s moments like this that crop up in your facebook feed that remind you of where you came from - and this was a photo I used to be somewhat happy with - Underdog, youngest puppette, and Mrs Underdog from 2 years ago… 27709586_10157101530721632_57251295159120099_o.jpg

      Then on a day where your’re feeling down on yourself, flat, fat, out of energy, you need to look at stuff like this from a week ago from my local ParkRun, or out with the young lad -
      83145832_10159312854771632_2098937349185470464_o.jpg 82875862_10159310461361632_5712332617081159680_o.jpg

      And you realise - holy S**T, I’ve made significant changes.

      So Lads, particulary the older guys here who are doubting themselves - JUST KEEP GOING.

      And…

      Make sure you document your journey - one of my largest regrets is actually not taking enough photos at the start of the journey.

      You’ve all got this boys - you’ve been through worse… we are Tigers supporters after all… 😄

    • RE: Russell Packer - What Now

      Get him Fit,
      Get him Motivated,
      and most importantly - hungry.

      Packer ironically lost his mongrel edge the more edu-ma-cated he became, and that to me was part of his appeal.

      I don’t mind having a gentle, well educated, quietly spoken giant around the club - just as long as he brings the aggression and mongrel on the field.

      Packer should look at the way JWH is on AND off the field as a model for his behaviours.

    • Chris Lawrence Re-Signs - One year deal for 2020

      https://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2019/10/21/wests-tigers-re-sign-chris-lawrence/

      Wests Tigers are pleased to announce that Chris Lawrence has signed a new playing contract with the club for the 2020 season.

      The new, one-year deal will see the Life Member remain with Wests Tigers for his 15th season at the club — making the 31-year-old the longest consecutively serving player in Wests Tigers history.

      A local junior of Wests Tigers, Lawrence made his memorable first-grade debut back in 2006 — quickly becoming a regular of the side with his blistering speed and try-scoring potency.

      He would go on to become one of four players to register 200 NRL games for Wests Tigers and was inducted as a Life Member of the club in 2016.

      The club’s all-time leading try-scorer and third most capped player of all time, Lawrence has had a profound impact on Wests Tigers both on and off the field, and said he was delighted to extend his playing career with the club for another season.

      “I’m extremely thankful and proud to re-sign with Wests Tigers for another year,” Lawrence said. “This club has always been where I have called home and I’m really excited to be able to continue playing in the colours that I love.

      This club has always been where I have called home…

      Chris Lawrence
      “The Members and fans of Wests Tigers have always shown tremendous support to me throughout my career and I’m very grateful for that.

      "Under Michael Maguire, Wests Tigers is definitely going in the right direction so I’m looking forward to being a part of that and help bring the success this club deserves.”

      Wests Tigers Head Coach Michael Maguire praised Lawrence’s leadership and said he had an integral role to play in the side in 2020.

      “I’m really pleased we’ve been able to re-sign Chris,” Maguire said.

      “He has been a wonderful player for this club for a long time but continues to grow in his game and role on the field — which is most pleasing to see.

      I see. Moses with two shepherds in a single play, to put the eels over for their first try,

      Looks like classic shepherd plays only lasted for 24hrs.
