LIVE GAME Round 4 vs Storm

[davey_farrell]

Sheens asked them to win the second half, I wish he also asked them to win the first

haha brilliant

Is it normal for the CEO to sit in the bench with the coaches? He needs to stay on the commercial side of the club if he doesn’t want to take any responsibility for it.

The scrum against the feed in the 2nd half changed the game, storm had nothing they were under the pump, then the scrum, unbelievable only the tigers

do other teams take this option of repacking a scrum instead of taking the penalty?

 

[watersider]

Sheens: we won the second half.

2nd half winners, Letz Goooo!

Tigers need a new 1,6 and 7 for 2024. AD and Brooks won’t take us to finals or win the comp. And we need a genuine 7 very badly for next year. Also I think Sheens needs to go, he’s only 2 games away from having the worst start the Tigers would have in history.

 

[Glenji95]

Yeah a few teams have done it this season.

Look I love a bit of pile on but the option to repack the scrum was the right one. We'd already got a penalty from the previous scrum for Melbourne unpacking early, and obviously took the choice to repack so we can catch them out again and get a sin binning

Agree, look I thought there was a better performance in the second half. They looked like they were starting ti get into the groove a bit more. Not perfect, obviously but getting there. Once katoa took the dive after a love tap from brooks! The boys finally fired up, from that point the defence was much stiffer and had more feeling in it. Katia was a massive dog and a flog, even brooks was giving it to him.
There was a clear difference when the coaching staff took the kicking duties of him, finally!!
Stefano was great all game but again wasted starting. Put that idiot twal on first FFS! I thought most of our pack was good BLORE was great in defence, Poole, Klemmer, ice, Bateman.
Bad fir us was brooks, Doueihi, naden was quite, stains was as I said before below average pushed back in nearly every tackle. I thought wakeham was pretty good his kicking wa much better, if they hand the keys to him and just tell brooks to support him! After that game I would drop brooks but there’s no one else to take his spot, so just limit his involvement.
Look I am hoping we can turn the corner.

And to add to that why do we not contest any kicks we put up we continually sit back and let opposition bring the ball back , so bloody annoying

Yeah they do but they know how to feed the scrum.

your risk handling the ball back to the oppposition though. I dont think we are good enough to take that chance.

Better 7 than Brooks

The old lady with a walking stick and a guide dog that works at the Salvation Army store would play halfback better than Brooks FFs

 

[Stevec]

We have 4 quality forwards all new recruits
Cant rate anyone in the backline they couldn't create a single try
Naden total 28 meters , Staines got outgunned under high ball .
Check the kick chase it was non existent
We are down by 12 and 10 mins to go so we do 5 one out runs then a bad kick
Our attack is 2nd rate

I mean you'd hope that if we were to choose to repack the scrum to hopefully get a sin binning they would at least know how to feed a scrum first. Maybe we're asking a bit too much i don't know. Also, knowing these lot kicking the ball for touch is also a bit risky.

Sheens asked them to win the second half, I wish he also asked them to win the first

Sheens also suggested in the presser
*Disrupted pre season (obviously no other club had reps coming back late)
*Injuries (something he dismissed as a reason why Madge had a poor start to 2022)
*The best one was brooks had a couple of opportunities that were only just stopped (Melb offside)
He is either senile (possible) or gone into protecting his/benji’s positions even at this early stage

Went to the game tonight
Storm never really looked like being troubled
The tigers didn't really gel .things seemed to be out of touch,timing etc
Think naden may have played with an injury tonight

 

[GCfan]

Storm are lucky they were playing the tigers, any other team would've beaten them

I reckon Canterbury lose to the storm tonight too. Storm were really bad against them, much better against us this week. We just can’t attack for shit

 

[Bigscreentv]

Sheens: we won the second half.

2nd half winners, Letz Goooo!

I have no problem with him saying that as he has to keep things positive, but he must know that Brooks was the major reason we lost that game…or even went too far behind in first half
