LIVE GAME Round 16 vs. Raiders

[Odessa]

No losing psychology.

That's so true just don't burn them out

I am not a big Cooper Cronk fan but two things I have heard him say of late

Losing becomes a habit....

And the one that surprised me

The best Form of defence is attack

From his mouth...The best form of defence is attack

Did not see this coming. Amazing to win like that with a team of rookies basically.

This is a good spine and it’s going to be better next year.

The reality check comes next Sunday.

Yeah, that quick tap annoyed me. Refs basically never allow them and it didn't even feel like he was at the mark and we're all up in arms about the last call potentially to challenge. I get you have to be ready and set, it's just so rarely is that quick tap allowed. I was watching from the grandstand, so I could be wrong, but I even feel like there was a Canberra player still in front of him from the tackle. And the ref definitely hesitated and motioned to stop the quick restart before allowing play on.

Anyway, that was frustrating and while seyfarth has done some dumb things, I don't blame him for that one, it was a really messy passage of play.

The tap was taken with tapine in front so should have not even been allowed

correct. additionally, if it was a quick tap he was square at marker. that has to be my favourite win of the season, because we won and we beat the green machine, who we usually play into form at this point of the season

Match Snapshot​

• Wests Tigers centre Adam Doueihi played his first NRL game since Round 6 last year.
• The Raiders came up with six errors in the first half and completed at just 72 per cent.
• Tigers No.6 Lachlan Galvin came up with two tries, 181 run metres and seven tackle breaks in an impressive return from a hand injury.
• Raiders back-rower Hudson Young came up with nine tackle breaks and 91 run metres as he bounced back from the disappointment of being overlooked for Origin Two.
• The last time the Tigers beat the Raiders at Campbelltown Stadium was Round 16, 2014 when a Braith Anasta field goal secured a 19-18 win.
• Luke Laulilii made his NRL debut for the Tigers alongside his brother Kit, who was in the second NRL match of his career.
• Wests Tigers back-rower Samuela Fainu ran for 110 metres and broke three tackles as well as making 36 tackles.
• A crowd of 10,106 was on hand at Campbelltown Stadium.
• Wests Tigers forward Alex Seyfarth was sent to the sin bin in the 63rd minute for a professional foul.
• Raiders winger Nick Cotric came up with a game high 11 tackle breaks.

Plays of the Game​

It took Lachlan Galvin just four minutes to stamp his class in the game as he demanded the ball from 20 metres out and surged through some lazy Raiders defence to post the Tigers' opening try. After battling a hand injury for a few weeks and then being rested by coach Benji Marshall last week, Galvin relished his return to the field and made it a double in the 41st minute when he finished off a stunning team try that featured brilliant lead-up work by Jahream Bula, Solomona Faataape and Adam Doueihi.

It's great to see the Tigers thrash the Raiders after all the floggings they've given them over the years! I wanted 50 but Seyfarth did his usual Einstein act. I reckon the Tigers still owe Raiders a few more floggings but this is good.

 

[rusted-on]

He showed attacking intent in the 1st half and to brush off each error and keep going - full credit to him. His involvement today was very positive.
Also great to see he could handle the uptick in attack while he never gave up defending as well, multiple times he was on both sides of the park after tackle on the other side.

Spot on. He was involved in the tackle that turned over possession for Api to pick up, only to be backing him up to score. It's that effort and desire I love to see, and he was great today.

The reality check comes next Sunday.

It’s the most confidence we’ll take into a Roosters game in a long long time.

 

[Bigscreentv]

Does Staines get back in to this team? Will they go with Olam and Deouhi in centres, with Naden and lobb on wings against roosters?

 

[Tiger-ferret]

Just watching the highlights (wife:are you watching that again 🤣)…

Naden copped a fair knee to the back of the head being tackled after the intercept.

 

[Garrry]

2023 wests tigers finished the year on 14 points ( 4 wins ) 1 more win and a improvement, come on!!! Yeeeeehaaaaa

Was pleasantly surprised he played it quick. A few weeks ago he made a similar long run and got up slowly and we didn’t capitalise.

 

[BZN]

Great start , thanks to all who rocked out to Cambo today place looks great and plenty there , well done

@Suzie-Q often makes the pilgrimage to CSS from the other side of the Black Stump.
Did you "rock out to Cambo today" Suzie?

 

[Marella Jube]

Team showed a bit of ticker in the face of marginal calls. Points on the board certainly helped.

Fox commentary stank. Blatant Canberra cheerleading rather than calling what they see. Cronk drinks his bathwater & Voss an arselicker.

Fataape is our lucky charm player. Won our first two games with him and when he was bought back in, won our next two. For the superstitious types.

1st career ties to

Adam Douehi, Stefano and Api made the day just perfect.

So happy
