Confirming we’ll be live on Wests Tigers Radio tonight from 8:30pm.

A few topics you might want to contribute comments and questions on:

Is effort enough or do questions have to start being asked again about the coach/recruitment?

Are we being targeted by the refs/bunker? If so, why?

Can the Wests Tigers season be salvaged or do we start looking at 2023 already?

We would love to have some of you guys call in to the show tonight, we are not sure how many are interested but thought we would give it a try anyway. If you have a question or comment come join us and have your opinion heard. 

 

I will post the link in this thread at 8.30 and if you wish to join the chat click on the link after 9pm it will take you to a waiting room for the pod. We will only have one caller at a time so you may need to be a little patient in the waiting room.

 

When omitted to the call please wait till you are introduced before speaking and start by mentioning your forum user name if you have logged into zoom under a different name.

 

Note please remember that all callers are to abide by forum guidelines, including no swearing.

If it is popular we may make it a semi regular segment.

I beg the question.. did Jackson overplay his hand against the sea Eagles? Or did Luke Brooks underplay?

Keep steering the right path

Are we being targeted by the refs/bunker? If so, why?

Set restarts= zero scrutiny of referees decision.

With zero scrutiny half the time I feel they are just given so as both sides get about the same number by the end of the match. 

But six again at certain moments can mean everything yet in other situations be no real benefit.

Equal set restarts on the stat sheet does not mean even officiating, discuss?

It certainly feels like we are, but that seems like too big a conspiracy. If I had to guess, it’s a mix of horrible luck combined with not having a vocal captain in the refs ear constantly. I heard on the commentary this weekend after one of the tries that Daly cherry evans spent a good period of time chatting to the ref on the way back to the halfway line. That constant questioning must play on a refs mind and influence future decisions. As for the bunker though… 🤯

I doubt it's a conscious bias but I can think of 5 tries which were poorly handed by bunker:

Lucy put down not reviewed

Peachy put down overturned

Kelma put down overturned

Jock try overturned bc kenny offside 

And there was another where centre passed to winger but called knock on?

They are all game changing decisions

 

On top of that we've had how many 10mins?

- 2 (or 3?) Peachy 10 mins,

another for being offside on the line - was in Tamou or someone similar?

plus Ute on the weekend

And maybe another one

At least 4 in 9 games

We are playing more than just effort.

We are playing with effort on effort. Something I've very really seen a WT do.

We've defended well all year avergaibg less than 22 points conceded a game (down from around 30 last year)

Since Hastings has returned at 7 we've attacked much better averaging 18 points a game

Compared to 8.4 points a game in the 5 weeks prior 

We scored 22 points with a makeshift back 5 and Lucy missing.

We are batteling courageously with half our top 17 out. 

Let's support the team.

We'll have a better judge once we get our full squad back later this year.

We can definitely still make the top 8 this year

When AD and Laurie are back in this team we can make a run in the second half of this season
