    Recruitment/Retention Strategy for Fullback/Wingers/Centres

    FULLBACK - We should be ok with plenty of faith being shown in Bula to show continuous improvement and develop into an elite fullback. Plenty of good signs shown by Heath Mason to continue developing into a very good back up fullback with the added bonus he is versatile enough to also play in...

    Who’s progressing best ?

    I know it’s early days, but can anyone tell us which of our younger players look to have developed well in regards to their aerobic capacity and adding muscle to their frame at this stage ?

    Is our playing roster up to NRL level ?

    There is always many theories on why we have now collected 2 consecutive wooden spoons, potentially a 3rd on the way, but the bottom line is our playing roster is not good enough. Yes we brought in some quality players for 2023 and Api aside they didn’t set the world on fire, but regardless we...

    Newtown Jets (Sharks Reserves)

    The Newtown Jets (Sharks Reserves) are no doubt the best quality team across the KOE Cup and Qld Cup competitions, they pile on plenty of points almost every week and when you look at their line up, the forwards are not much to get excited about, so presumably they just do their job, but a vast...

    Dale Finucane

    This kid is the hardest young forward running around, he`s more than ready to be a starter and won`t get that opportunity anytime soon at the big spending Bulldogs. We need to build a team of hard young & hungry players and get rid of the ones that are not.

    Danger Men On The Edge

    I think someone else has previously touched on this subject, but the lack of danger men on our edges is the biggest problem with this current Wests Tigers side. Plenty of people seem to want to be quick to blame Benji for his errors, BUT he is constantly under pressure being the only one capable...

    Quade Cooper?

    Love him or hate him, Quade Cooper is one of the most talented athletes in the southern hemisphere. Play him fullback and he`d have the same impact on games as the likes of Slater, GI & Ben Barba. I don`t know about others, but I`m not concerned about past reputations, I just want a talented...

    Gibbs

    I thought Bryce had a great game tonight as well. I don`t read stats, so know idea how he went in that regard, but he seemed to run the ball more aggressively than what i`ve seen from him all season. He could have easily dropped his bundle given he`s signed with the Sharks for next season, but...

    Big Effort

    Whatever way you look at it, it was a real big effort from the lads tonight. They have copped plenty of criticism throughout the season and rightly so, but tonight proved to me they have regrouped and are committed to again spilling blood for each other each and every game for the rest of the...

    Potential Targets

    Just throwing up a few more names who could be potential targets to sign and enhance our squad for 2012 and beyond: Josh Morris - he`s just been dropped to State Cup, this is the perfect time to negotiate with a quality player such as Josh Morris and tempt him in to asking for a release from...

    Lote

    I just wanted to start a more positive thread to state the obvious and say how good Lote is for the Wests Tigers and the NRL both on and off the field. My young 8y.o cousin was a fanatical Bulldogs supporter, but was invited to attend a Wests Tigers training session at Concord a few months back...

    A couple of game changing plays

    Robbie Farah`s grubber that went dead late in the first half. Moltzen was there ready to pounce and if Farah weighted that grubber correctly we go into halftime down 18-12 rather than 25-6, a big difference. Mitch Brown`s dropped ball when we just got back to 25-18 and had all the momentum. We...

    Benji Marshall

    I still think some people under estimate just how good he is. He has always had the freakish skills, but like all champions he has worked hard on his game and is now a very complete footballer including being a good defender. Far and away the best player to ever wear a Wests Tigers jersey and as...

    Sheens Interview

    I listened to the interview with Tim Sheens on 2SM yesterday and I reckon it was the most positive I`ve heard him speak about the side in the whole time he`s been with the Wests Tigers. He seemed very optimistic about our chances of winning games even with so many injuries and seem to have a...

    James Tedesco

    I`ve never seen this kid play, but I know people who reckon he`s a definate star of the future. I`ve noticed that he seems to be a try scoring machine at all levels including when he was playing for the Australian Schoolboys. Noticed he scored 5 tries on the weekend, i`m sure he`ll be straight...

    Benji

    I`ve noticed that Benji has been getting a fair bit of criticism of late, both in the media and on these forums and I really feel it`s unwarranted. How many of you would honestly like Benji to change the way he plays if you were in charge ??? From my perspective, I honestly believe Benji is the...

    Running the ball hard

    Gee it can be an easy game for the playmakers when we have blokes like Ellis, Fulton & co running the ball hard like they did today. Throw in a hard running fullback like Mitch Brown and a young tearaway prop who wants to cause some carnage like Andrew Fifita and you have the makings of a pretty...

    Worst performance since `1980

    That was undoubtedly the worst performace by any Wests Tigers side ever, also the worst performance by any Wests Magpies or Balmain Tigers side and I go back to about 1980\. It was nothing short of disgracefull, no passion, no pride, a total disrespect of the jersey. I left 10mins after halftime...
