@WestsTigers
you have an incoming coach who’ll get the players to work as hard as ever and get them fit and ready for the 2019
@nrl
season. That combined with the creativity in attack that’s in the DNA of the club will mean a top 8 finish for the Tigers 🐅 next year i reckon.

➡️ is some sort of gaslighting rubbish I didn’t think would come out of Trent Robinson’s mouth. Especially after the great way he handled Latrell’s abuse from his own fans last year. I’m behind Ezra all the way calling this stuff out.
Don’t you just love Rugby League journalism! We eat our own. So there’s Broncos players being investigated for getting out of their hotel to play Pokies 🎰 and not drinking or carrying on and leaving by 11pm. Absolute rubbish journalism!! 🤡 .

If a player says he’s been racially villified on a footy field, it’s happened!! You can mask it & say it’s in the heat of the battle, etc etc. But I don’t get how Trent Robinson sits in a post match press conference & accuses Ezra of not being right. “doesn’t mean it’s right” ➡️
Great effort from the

this new season. Why don’t they bring in a 5 man bench?? 5th/18th player named is only allowed to play if one of the 1st 17 named gets a HIA & is ruled out for the rest of the game. Too often a team is hampered when this happens.
If the

From an outsider looking in,
@joshreynolds9
has handled his situation admirably! He could have had a whole media circus about why he wasn’t playing 1st grade etc but he’s pushed through playing reggies without complaining it seems. Hats off!!
Really unfortunate for Dave Rennie! I could see what he was trying to do but ultimately didn’t get enough W’s in the end. Eddie under massive pressure to perform but he does do well in these situations. Players should probably pack their mirrors for his 1st camp in charge 👀
Can I just say I am not condoning anything that Ben has done. Insensitive yes! And I agree with the sanctions the NRL handed down and it’s never been ok to be violent towards women. I really just hope from a well being point of view his partner, his family and Ben himself are ok
So the game is def quicker, but have the rule makers thought of the athlete and their physical well-being? Players will always push themselves to the limit, no question! Do we want to see a team every wkend play with 14 men? Are these new rules better for fans or athlete?

What a great game of rugby!!! Both teams immense. Great play at the end of the game for Whitelock but Jordie Barrett’s tackle to hold up the Irishman when they were hot on attack was amazing. Feeing for my Irish mates right now..

Whether you agreed with his methods or not, you always knew where Michael Cheika stood. I was never coached by him but the times I spent with him, you knew how passionate he was for that Gold jersey. Good luck in your next endeavours Cheik.

Makes me sick the bonuses executives and the top brass of Banks once got while the man on the street were being hood winked under their watch.
