And somehow we are 9th? There is a lot of credit due here.
That is true, but a low bar. Our expectations aren't too high. Being in the top 20 (I know) is an achievement for the worriers.
TBH, I'm not really too worried about where we're sitting on the table, but more how we're playing. Amazingly, we look like a competent team, in the wins, but also in the recent loss as well.
My mate text me on the weekend and said he was wearing his Warriors jersey out in public again.

we're 9th, with a sniff of finals, despite:
Living in another country, with out the players families;
Had a bunch of 1st teamers head home;
playing with loan players from other clubs. -
@mariner4life that whole Tamworth experience and the performance that the boys put on for the people of Tamworth was fucken cool.
Pretty impressed with how the boys have handled this season
-
Just watched the game. Payten has us humming now, enthusiastic and energetic. We look to really be enjoying our footy (why wouldn't we?). I love the fact that so many young fresh players are making a significant difference at the moment. Brown has a decent foundation for next season and there's still all to play for this season. Such a shame the eels won't let their loan players play for us next round
-
Benji's time at the Tigers looks finally up.
Reports he's pissed about it.
A senior half in a team playing dogshit, who is 35, and defends like his shoulders are made of wet paper, is upset a club doesn't want to pay him $300k next year?
riiiiight
-
@mariner4life good fuckin' riddance
And take half the squad with you.
-
The Tigers salary cap is a mess. Reynolds, Mbye, Brooks and Packer are taking up far too much of their cap space. I feel for Madge as he's cleaning up a mess that Cleary has created there.
I think the Titans could be a good destination for Marshall tbh. Ash Taylor would benefit I feel with an experienced head outside him. The Tigers however are making the right decision letting Marshall go.

God i love the Broncos. They are a dumpster fire
Today's reports are: Everyone is fired!!! The list of names able to speak to other clubs is astounding. Some of them are good too. I would take Kotoni Staggs and Joe Ofahengaue in a heartbeat.
As if this wasn't funny enough. Reports they want Ben Hunt back! And even a rumour of Benji Marshall! What the actual fuck are they doing up there? Is everyone coked up to their eyeballs.
Pleeeeeeaaaaase let this all happen, and they sign Kevin Walters. They'll be a laughing stock for years to come.

Also, let's talk about the Tigers
Michael Maguire is apparently too hard on the poor players, who hate that they might get dropped for shit effort.

Great to see a focus on defense with Payten in charge, pity he will be with NQC next year.
Parra probably going to hit hard after being found soft like a marshmallow by Souths last week

We are playing well, the two loan players will be a loss but not pivotal
-
@mariner4life yep sad that split playing group, especially since like the warriors it was more lack of consistent effort in defence that was causing the tigers issues.

Welcome back mate.

@ACT-Crusader thanks mate, took me a while to get over the cricket hammering by Australia. Typical that COVID didn't come earlier enough to wipe that result out!

@raznomore said in NRL 2020:
righto - how is old SBW going to go tomoz?
Much like his latest AB days. A thumble, an over rated run or two, a bad pass and an off load that will give the commentators orgasms.

20 minutes at lock, so probably not much, although as mentioned 100 minutes of talk about what he could do..

@mariner4life They're an embarrassment. I feel bad for Madge now taking on this rabble full of overpaid prima donnas.
