Official Wests Tigers 2021 Rise of the 9th thread

Oh. THAT bloke.

With missing teeth, I'm genuinely surprised he's leaving Souths.

Tigers trying to claim this loan deal is the first of its king in rugby league haha Parra did it a couple of times a while back. I remember them loaning out Feleti Potato to the ESL for a year

ESL do it all the time, I believe it is the 1st time its between 2 NRL clubs

I do struggle with that as you know, I am clearly racist

We need to get rid of the dead wood at the club now, McQueen, Packer and Grub and chase some decent forwards

Packer be a decent bench forward if they let him put on the kilos again. Grub good 14, one more injury and he's gone though.

Wouldn't cross the road to piss on him.

Packer or Grub?

Everytime were favourites, have a chance of consolidating our ladder position we dish up shit like that. Should have loaded up on the Titans, it's the only way we would've won.

crazy how it always happens hey...

On a side note, you would be crossing your fingers that cam smith plays on next year - Grant is the real deal

You have the Raiders next week, suck a fat one Tigpies

Its been quiet in here lately, maybe I've been missed.

Damn, last night was a joy and a painful watch

Joyful because Masters had a shocker and the cows lost

Painful because I couldn't choose who I wanted to lose the most out of the Eels and Panthers. It's a shame because I normally like both these teams but last night the Eels had those massive sooks in Moses and Matterson so won't be liking them again until they leave (without a premiership I hope).

And now I dislike the Panthers cause of coach Cleary


As for the Tigers effort on the weekend, well I'm not surprised, we have been performing like that since the merge so I'm glad for the changes, it might wake them up

Parra won't win a comp this side of 2050.

We played great against raiders, if we can do that every week we'll be playing finals come October? is it.

You won't.

Is it just me or does the air get thinner when you're above 9th ?

In Madge We Trust

When we lost to the Titans a few weeks back it left me thinking we have not changed because we keep losing games we are meant to win. Madge was ropeable and things where going to change, and it did, dropping under performers for example.

The attitude adjustment must have worked because we not only beat the Bulldogs and Broncos we flogged them. Normally we would have played the Ponies back into form and got beaten by the Doggies

Also on the Broncos, I love listening to their supporters whinge, sook and cry. Its seem to think they are entitled to semi finals each year, their supports should walk a few years in a Tigers supporters shoes

Lastly, poor health is preventing me spending time on this forum, it appears many others have too, step up lads, there's plenty of Tiger supporters (god help us) on here.

^^^ Post of the year, my thoughts exactly. Heard I think it was MG say Brooks and Benji both dropped for defensive lapses that as halves weren't that bad. But Madge had set an expectation it wasn't met, the rule applies to everyone. So defense is king, we finally getting it. As the Cow said, hardest thing is we're always in the top 8 at some stage. What feels different this year is as you said, we have gone on with wins and demolished teams and I can't remember the last time our +/- looked this good.

Side note, look after yourself mate you need your health. Just keep sucking in those good vibes that the Broncos are a basket case.
