It appears already that quite a lot of fans are thinking the fate of the Tigers rests solely in the palms of Luke Brooks “now that he has a “decent pa...

@avocadoontoast Yes but I’d prefer a Rueben Cotter or a JFH or Paulo etc than Klemmer who is a plodder to me. As I say he’d offer something we don’t h...

I always enter the season without expectations of success or failure. Okay to go along for a ride and see where it takes me. But around the middle of ...

@tiger_alex I think the problem could be are they representing their own self interest or the broader good of the game? With only one member on the co...

@garry What do you think of that? I would’ve thought Wayne Pearce might be a voice for players or certainly would understand their point of view. I gu...
