What happened to Wests Tigers this season?

Question

I dont really follow League, but they are the reigning premiers, and now wont make the finals? Is this true, and what went wrong?

Answer 1

The best team is still in the comp the mighty Canberra Raiders :) and they r going to win the comp for the 4th time this year :)

Answer 2

Last year we went through the season with a full strength team this year we have had too many injuries to be contenders. Unfortunatley it happens to all the teams at some time.

Answer 3

Exactly. As an avid Tigers fan it was heartbreaking to watch. Too many injuries, not enough depth to cover them. When you lose your fullback, five-eighth and hooker during the season you lose momentum.

Hopefully we'll be set for next year, we have bought good players and lots of the younger guys are much more experienced.
