    2026 recruitment & retention

    I'll be first to admit that Garrick needs to improve at centre - certainly. I think overall the number of tries he lets in there isn't great, but by far, it is not our biggest defensive problem. I prefer him at centre, and still do, as he is a gun player, whose second carries and attacking...

    Pre-Game Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    I remember last year for the Rnd 26 Bulldogs game, which was the start of our run into the finals, he dumped Burbo to 18th man, installed Lawton into the second row, and made Lodge start in Aloiai's spot. That was all done the hour before kickoff. I seriously hope he has the guts to make similar...

    Galvin

    Does this sound familiar? 🤣🤣🤣 “I totally understand my decision will frustrate many Wests Tigers fans, but please know that it wasn’t an easy call to make,” Galvin said. “It’s a decision that I have discussed at length with my parents, closest friends and family. I’m extremely grateful for...

    Pre-Game Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    This team list better change by Thursday or else Seibs is kidding himself. Sipley has shown nothing outside of Round 1. Navale is right there.

    Jared Waerea-Hargreaves

    It's an unfortunate what if. What if he spent that career with us? He certainly would've been the difference in 2013. Maybe even, alongside Manase Fainu, in 2021. Would've single handedly kept us hated, in spite of the Turbo's and DCE being the nicest people on the planet.

    Yep, probably should've made this clear. If Turbo, Jake and DCE are all playing to that coin, there is no problem. At market value however, they are all producing performances below those figures, whereas at the Bulldogs those mentioned players are playing to their value.

    Kikau, Mahoney, Burton, and Crichton are not on anywhere near the same money as DCE, Turbo, Jake and Olakau'atu combined. They largely occupy those same roster salary spots. Additionally, Ciraldo had a say in the signing of two of them I believe. Collectively, there is probably about $2.4...

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    Mate, would you rather our depth be Kurt De Luis and Sean Keppie, or Siua Taukeiaho and Jazz Tevaga? These are the choices he's had. I know what I prefer. He's responsible for the old man forward pack, but what is he supposed to do, release Jake? Sink the ship? We have had zero cap space for...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I think part of the reason for your last point may be whiplash - Seibold was very liberal in terms of playing young players when he was at the Broncos. That, and him immediately shipping off the senior players are probably some of the only things you can actually hold against him from his time...

    Galvin

    I can't see him and Large both fitting if they're in the halves... In one of the options, Large would have to move to fullback or the centres (offloading one of Garrick, Koula or Talau), but this kind of predicament behind Galvin is why Large left in the first place. The alternative is putting...

    Wests Tigers statement

    Wouldn't be a bad Jake replacement in a couple/few years time if he can physically develop like Yeo... Still why on earth he would actively pursue not playing in his preferred position is beyond me. I think we're probably higher up the list than people would think. Seibold is good with younger...

    Pre-Game Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    I don't expect we can win, despite our clearly stronger roster, purely because of the stupid NRL scheduling. We're going to be gassed by the time they run out. Who's idea was it to play a Saturday Perth team on the Thursday? The NRL are stupid for this.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I'd only get him as a second-rower/lock. The money is not there for him, so he'll try to be a half for as long as he possibly can. A bit like Schuster.

    Caleb Navale

    On your first point, if you give that garbage game against Souths last year another watch, he debuted in that game. Also played against the Knights later in the season, with a much better team result. These two performances showed (to me at least), his running game and defence were both strong...

    The Silvertail's optimism pulse 2025.

    And Penn shall respond by sacking Seibold! For the exact same issues that plagued Des... Almost like a few long term signings prevent us from doing anything different, year after year. I don't think we can reach the next level with those three. I want change. We haven't met the target of...

    Pre-Game Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    Fairly certain Navale is on a supplementary deal, like the one that Hopoate was on prior to Round 1. Changes to the supplementary rules mean that players on those contracts can play whenever, whereas NSW Cup players have to wait for that deadline. Explains why he's appeared in the reserves...

    Pre-Game Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    Few comments on what I think the team will be. I think Haumole is fine from post-game pictures. Talau seemed a little underdone, but surely Croker is back. 1. Hoppa - one of our best, of course a 20 year old will make a few mistakes 2. Saab - I think he'll be fine 3. Koula - ??? 4. Garrick -...

    Do you have a source in the club? If Jake is asking for money similar to what he's currently earning, I would be put off too. They have not delivered on their contracts, good people or not. I don't blame Turbo, but Jake needed to be fitter... 5 years ago.

    [Resurrected] what the f**k is wrong with our club

    100%, Penn is absolutely useless Seriously don't know what he has done wrong. We're in a much better financial position and salary cap position. No Fulton's, no Tartak, overall improvement. The only place he has failed, he was unequivocally white-anted into resigning... Months before they even...
