    I thought that 2nd half was the best we have played all year, there was only one team in it. Titans put in a shift considering their training ground was under water all week, but they were never going to win that.

    Holy shit, Isaac Luke even looked like he cared. Foran was good, SJ has been in form all year when you look at it objectively, there were positives. But i still can't see us making the 8.

    Some interesting results on the weekend. Manly with another big scalp, tipping up the Roosters. Melbourne look really good as they pump the highly touted Panthers. And maybe Jason Taylor wasn't the problem as the Tigers continue to suck.

      JT wasn't the solution though. His attack was stale and his favourites never performed. Never should've got rid of Bunji....

        @ACT-Crusader no doubt, he's a shit coach, and has been for a while. But the Tigers are pretty ordinary.

          @mariner4life The Tigers fullback is pretty awesome but those halves are quite average. Either way, Ivan Cleary is now coach of Wests Tigers. Also Des Hasler is staying on as Bulldogs coach until 2019.

              @Sneakdefreak that's a strong move by the Bulldogs. On one hand i applaud it, as they are not bowing to media pressure, and recognise that not everything that is wrong with the Bulldogs is Hasler's fault. On the other hand he a whinging fluffybunny who plays dour bullshit football. Then again, it's the bulldogs, so fuck 'em.

              The Warriors 2-3 could be enough to have them in the 8, if as ever, our for and against wasn't so shit. Everyone has had a win, and only the Storm are unbeaten

                  @ACT-Crusader good on him. Should get good money because he's still a fucking top halfback. Melbourne got a gun there, remember when no one thought he would make it as a halfback?

                                Penrith drop Moylan, Hiku and Blake to reserve grade for, well, acting like people from Penrith and getting on the piss after work. Nah jokes, people from Penrith don't have jobs! Combined with the injuries, they'll pretty much be putting out the U20s this week.

                                  Could also test out the Storm a bit as well . they have always been really good at replacing the void caused by a departing player , but this one is a bit bigger than usual .

                                      Fuck the fixture list. The Broncos are a bit shit, and play football boring enough to make your eyes bleed, and yet are about to play their 4th Thursday game of the year. The other two were Friday night.

                                          @Sneakdefreak said in NRL 2017:

                                          The Sydney halfback circus begins - Wests Tigers great Mitchy Moses (who the Tigers went with over Te Maire Martin) has signed with Parramatta.

                                          Good. There's no way he's played well enough to demand the cash that dickhead club was throwing at him.

                                          A Sunday Telegraph investigation can reveal that since premiership-winning coach Tim Sheens’ departure in 2012, the Tigers have amassed an incredible turnover of 53 off-field personnel changes.
                                          What’s even more alarming is that the changes don’t include the equally high number of turnover within the marketing, administration, welfare and community relation departments of the Tigers.
