Maybe what makes some of the players that leave the Tigers and go on to realise their potential elsewhere is a combination of a few simple things:
1) Years spent in a side that consistently loses then moving and attaining a winning feeling in fresh surroundings.
2) Being surrounded by players...
May be it’s that he is still not 100% - at the end of the presser someone asked if he’s all good with his injury problems and his answer sounded pretty sarcastic, something like - “oh yeah, I’m great” !!
Another disappointing game from this group as a whole. How many times do we allow a try in the final minutes before half time or the first few minutes of the second half?? A lack of concentration or focus and we let 2 tries in that kill us.
As usual you can count on us producing a few super...
Luai will really need to change his playing style significantly if he is going to play in the conventional 7 role for us. I can see Galvin playing 7 and Luai playing 6, or, they both play a morph type role left and right side. With this set up a Yeo style 13 would help us a lot next season and...
We do need to keep him so I think we will have to stretch and make our absolute best offer to ward off the competition. Maybe his next contract should be slightly different from his current one - he signs for 5 years but we get to dump him if he doesn’t get us to the finals or he doesn’t play...
Can’t say that Benji isn’t willing to make considered changes, and he seems to be on the same page as the bulk of posters here. I also think he is handling the media role of head coach very well. He has been honest and direct and his post game interviews have been on the money.
I hope the...
What a disappointing performance in the second half. We lacked discipline and effort. Our forwards and outside backs were not prepared to compete and showed no hunger or desire to do the hard yards, allowing the Dogs smaller bench players to gain ascendancy. We had very little possession or...
Broncos saved the magic for the tigers. Reynolds and Walsh not nearly as good tonight. Maybe Roosters not allowing them to be while Tigers didn’t have the speed to go with them.
My concern about Luai is the way he continually props snd runs back or sideways and skips across field looking for runners. It may sometimes work at Penrith as they have guys running into gaps and looking for carries, but for us he’ll end up running around in circles and the attack will go...
