Wests Tigers 2016 Thread

Thanks Milchcow. We are doing okay depth wise on the wing even with Marantas injury.

Marty Taupau article http://www.nrl.com/skys-the-limit-for-sea-eagles-taupau/tabid/10874/newsid/91471/default.aspx where he says "it was a hard decision to cut short his time at Wests Tigers, but he simply needed a change to get the best out of himself"

So I say "fuckoff Marty, you've gone from hero to villain in my books"

No chance

Devastated when he left, but would be too bigger step backwards for even the Tigers to fathom doing.  32 next year, time to retire, not try to milk another paycheck from a struggling club.

Yes, and Tim Sheens is looking to coach them again now he's no longer the Aussie coach. Mick Potter can be his assistant and Ben Elias slot straight back into hooker. Curtis Sironen's (ex?) Missus can be the Women's Liaison Officer.

Apparently Chris Lawrence is in favor of the idea...

Rowdy is a very polite bloke.

I'd have Benji back, but as a halves coach not a player. Moses and Brooks are our future and I wouldn't want to see this interrupted for 1 or 2 years

I don't see him as a coach at all. The things that he did well in his prime aren't the sort of things that can be coached, it's not like he is a great game manager.

Another game another win. I never get sick of winning.

Bi-winning. It must be the tiger blood.

Who knew tiger blood was code for HIV

I don't see him as a coach either. He proved that with some of his stupid game decisions in the past, but I would rather him coach our halves and not play in our halves

The Lurker Reporting Des Hasler has plans to lure Luke Brooks to Belmore when Brooks comes off contract. He states Brooks is contracted to the end of 2017 but I thought it was 2016. Am I wrong?

He and Moses both had 1 year extension as options built in. Tigers offered upgrades for both for the additional year and both triggered their extension.
