It's no lie...I SUPPORT, WORSHIP, PAY HOMAGE, EAT, SLEEP AND BREATHE WEST TIGERS!!!
Having not been following the NRL (National Rugby League) properly since 1989(back when it had a different name)!!!! and only mildly following footy over the last couple of years (didnt even follow it last year).
It was Round 4 West Tigers vs Canberra Raiders and West Tigers won the game 35-22. I'll spare you the finer points of the game but it wasn't looking too good for the Tigers, however Benji Marshall (Tigers Five Eighth and Star Player) was able to turn the game around and make it a win.
Since that game I've followed the Tigers season vigourously, not since '89 when the West Tigers were The Balmain Tigers have I been so interested in footy (or any other sport for that matter).
Wests Tigers finished the NRL Season No 3 on the ladder, their highest position since their '05 Grand Final victory, having not made the finals since.
While they didn't take out the 2010 Premiership, the fact that they made the finals the year that I supported them 110% is astounding. EYE OF THE TIGER!!!
