    Yeah I just posted a link from the fox sports site too.

    Why fucking name him if you're going to drop him the next day.  Joel Edwards is 18th man.  I hope Liddle comes in that way ET stays at lock.

    It did say they would use a combo of Halatau/Liddle/Cherrington at hooker so heres hoping.

    Maybe it will be he that becomes Gallen if this funny business continues

    That would make sense. Would be silly to get ET in as a hooker when JT is all about looking to the future and shit.

    I guess if Farah is dropped it must confirm that they've managed to move him on for next year and they'll be promoting Cherrington/Liddle to get them as much first grade experience as they can.

    Sacrifice any hope of this year in the hope that next year goes better.

    Or Taylor has found out he'll be getting the sack next year and just doesn't give a shit

    Liddle is not allowed to play, Tigers had to get permission from the NRL last game for him.  That's what makes the situation even more ridiculous that you would drop a perfectly good hooker.

    Cherrington will come up more than likely; as long as Taylor isn't considering ET again.

    This is why they have to ix up the 2nd tier cap.

    Its annoys me no end that the Tigers are allowed to pay someone NOT to play first grade. But we can't spend exactly the same amount of money and have them play for us

    Taylor likely to instead use Dene Halatau and Elijah Taylor in the hooking role.

    Considering the Tigers play way better without Farah, (the halves look more comfortable) i understand why Taylor has dropped him. Farahs dummy half style doesnt fit what the Tigers are trying to do.

    It might also have something to do with the 2 offers the Tigers have for him, maybe Robbies holding out and wont negotiate with the other teams?

    So Farah being dropped is bad for ET fantasy-wise right?

    That's just not true at all.

    The Tigers won a couple of game at the start of the year when he was out, but they've also sucked donkey balls in other games he's missed too.

    Sure Farah is not as good as he once was. But Taylor is kidding himself if he thinks Halatau/Taylor is a better hooking combo. Farah is the best hooking option at the club. The Tigers are paying a lot of money to have him at the club.
    We still have a chance at making finals this year so we should play the best team available, which includes Farah.

    Now what the fuck do I do with ET? As if it's not enough that Taylor is screwing over my club now he's ruining what's left of my fantasy team in the process

    my biggest taylor decision this year was bringing in dce a second time only for him to get injured and then trading to another half only for him to return 2 weeks later. costing me 2 trades.

    my second taylor decision was david bhana

    I'm giving it to Fifita. A week off to refresh I bet he is good for 80 points.

    SJ Always carves us up, half tempted to throw it on him but it feels like betting against your team so I just can't bring myself to. More than likely go (C)am even with the worry of a rest.

    What ctr would you sign if you already had Aitken? Money no option cos I sold Gutho last week when he was just an average winger before he turned into the next Shaun feckin Johnson.

    Don't say Gutho.
