Yeh I know the accidental bit just my biased slantThe refs need to have a rethink on their high kick rules because they just aren’t consistent and it’s creating confusion - Bula twice had an issue which could’ve gone our way
I actually think Harper played the ball and the play-on call was ok. The bomb earlier though wasn’t the right call.
Papa wasn’t accidentally offside also, he knew what he was doing and intentionally prevented the Eels players to grab it, so if it’s a play on = penalty.
Watching on fox, I thought I heard boos when eels were jogging on.Tigers have pretty good support for a cellar dweller. I was amazed how loud the cheers were when we scored, I’d say 70-30 being a parra home ground but it sounded like we were louder
Not sure what you mean by sliding up for the hip drop? Galvin had hold around the waist and dropped his weight down behind Tuilagi onto his ankle. It is a textbook hip drop. What does one on one or sliiding up have to do with it?Far from clinical, but plenty of grit.
Someone tell me how a hip drop can be called for a one on one tackle ? Anyone who’s played the game knows you cannot slide upwards,
Then a penalty for a shoulder charge that did not connect ?
Based on that theory every tackle could be considered a high tackle that missed.
Anyway 2 points is very valuable and plenty of Wests Tigers supporters at the game today which was great to see.
Today’s style of game suits Seyfarth. A hot day where endurance is key. Less about impact and more about keeping going. Well done to him.What a effort player smaller then every other forward tackle his heart out lots of passion always trying his best
Definite hip drop unfortunately - no doubt about it.Not sure what you mean by sliding up for the hip drop? Galvin had hold around the waist and dropped his weight down behind Tuilagi onto his ankle. It is a textbook hip drop. What does one on one or sliiding up have to do with it?
There was also no penalty for a shoulder charge. The penalty was for a 'Grapple' against Seyfarth. About the only penalty against us that i didn't think was obviously there for the ref to blow.
I've also been wrong about Olam thus far. Fingers crossed he can keep it up. I cannot agree with the final sentence however. I thought Sezer had the type of game that Brooks has been criticised for for years. Defended exceptionally well but when the game was in the balance he put in 2 very poor kicks followed by an attempted field goal that was closer to the sideline than the goal post. The final shot sneaking over redeemed his previous errors.Great win off the back of gritty play. I know we won by a lot last week, but the Sharks had some stupid plays with kicks out on the full and some relieving penalties. It just felt like the ball fell for us last week. Feel like we got very little this week and our defense was great. Definitely earnt that victory.
Big wrap to seyfarth. Two weeks ago I said he was unplayable because he was such a defensive liability. Not sure what happened to him but he made so many quality and important tackles and was dominant there against a strong forward pack.
Also, agree with praise for the big performers but just reckon Olam is huge in both our victories. His play is one of the biggest differences between our first game and these last 2. So strong in hit ups but also just really hurting people and intimidating players in defense. When was the last time we had a player who hit so hard? He's special. Another player I was wrong about.
Finally, a lot of addition by subtraction here. Where were nofo and brooks to stuff up or misread just when we didn't need it?
Never thought Glavin could do what he has been doing this consistently, this early. The talent appeared there but still looks like, with his frame, he should be getting folded by hardened first graders.Definite hip drop unfortunately - no doubt about it.
Cant believe Galvin is this good. Now I’m a fan!
Yeah, hes a menace when he comes on. Pure aggression. Seems to have that hatred for opposition players.
Is likely to be targetted by referees so have to keep some sort of leash on him. Cant be allowed to go full beserker mode lol....
The non penalty for the textbook "disruptor", and the dead set 35 non penalties for the 3rd man flops.No they werent. We went ballistic trying to turn the awful possession stat around and through that desperation gave many penalties away. We started the second half still doing it but when possession turned around, we settled down.
100%.Never thought Glavin could do what he has been doing this consistently, this early. The talent appeared there but still looks like, with his frame, he should be getting folded by hardened first graders.
Yeah, fair comments about Sezer. The poor kicks were the first thing Sezer mentioned in post game interview when asked about the winning field goal. Really like that desire to be accountable.I've also been wrong about Olam thus far. Fingers crossed he can keep it up. I cannot agree with the final sentence however.

He also kept Siva very quiet . Charlie was greatHe wont get any plaudits in here but that was Charlie Staines best game for Wests. He might be lightweight but the kid works his bollocks off. 14 runs for 153 metres, only 16 of those in kick returns. 56 PCM 👏🏼👏🏼
Massive effort
Agreed thank God he missed. The thought of Toa coming in makes me sick.Olam is lucky he stayed on the field. If he he’d have connected on that shoulder charge, I think he’d be looking at a stint on the sideline too.
Staines best game in a Tigers jersey.Agreed thank God he missed. The thought of Toa coming in makes me sick.
Also, Staines was great today. Gotta give him credit. Neutralised Sivo perfectly.
