LIVE GAME Round 14 v Panthers

[Lestronge]

Strange on Kit I thought too but tbh, often its better to have May at 80% than others at 100% such is the gap in quality.

Good on Murray for making it but although he made his tackles, he looked like a reserve grader to me. Tidy in his defensive work but not up to it physically and looked gassed pretty quick with the speed of the game.

As we all know, we're seriously short depth. Cost us the past few weeks.

I think the bird replacement at the end was originally Kits or Fainus second stint . My guess is Benji wanted more athleticism on the field

 

[loklok]

Benji CAN coach.

He doesn't know how use his bench players

 

[TYGA]

We need game breakers in this team. Strike centre is a must. Staggs pay him what he wants.

I am saying we were close to winning without him, a matter of an inch or two with the tackle on Bula. If Marshall doesn't want him on, that's fine and I'm sure he has spoken to him. I don't understand the upset, it is the NRL.

Maybe backup for injuries?

Both luai penalties .

Thanks. I'll keep an eye out when I do a quick rewatch without the niece.

Hasn't Staggs agreed to a new 3 year deal at $800k a year?

 

[Tom Shines]

Who's to say? Why don't you put your hand up to coach if you know better than Marshall.

I’ll play all 17 players at least… and at least I’ll know you’ll defend me if I lose

Amongst other short cummings.

Screw the N.R.L they're game they've allowed to become the have and have nots. Other thing that's missing me off is the commentary. Tigers in a hole after 4 game losses in a row, funny how they never mention 3 weeks ago if the Rat king doesn't knock the ball on over the line we beat Souths and if the referees actually did they're jobs and disallowed the try where Turuva got taken out last week we beat the Cowboys aswell. But no the Tigers are in crisis. Bloody joke.

Fox league is a joke of a channel with clear bias towards certain clubs and players. When certain clubs appear struggling they jump all over them, but turn a blind eye to the favoured clubs when in the same position. The scary thing is they don't even try to hide it.

Could be but I don't understand the upset. Let's be realistic, the Panthers are a fine side (still) yet we were in the match. I can be disappointed with the loss but not the effort, especially from our younger players.

Where was Bula attacking the bombs in the first half when he started in the 2nd half, he looked dangerous it brings in a 50/50 chance of a positive result.

 

[stephen]

Looked like a hipdrop, albeit a mild one. If we didn't burn our challenge early we could've reviewed it at least.

Just another example of our lack of smarts & game awareness at times. We need to get better in these moments.

 

[upthetigers]

Grounds keeper?

Harsh I thought he was good can play well and still lose same with poker @Buttface hope you're well champion

 

[mikey]

Defs need another quality prop, 2nd row n centre for next year.

 

[hodgo]

In the end, Marshall was correct and we were in the game right up until the last minute. I fail to understand the upset, it is the NRL.

I think the frustrating thing for me is our forwards were pretty gassed at the end and you have a fresh man just sitting there.

Maybe he adds some leg drive we need maybe he doesn't but every week our forwards are exhausted at either end

 

[NT_Tiger]

They demonstrated growth. Didnt get the two points but are an improved team. We need a kicker.

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

No luck ever comes the Tigers way during a game... How Bula didn't score that try... inches away

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

We just can't jag a win

not for the first time this season

Our effort is better but we are still shit.

If we were half decent we beat Souths, Cowboys and Panthers. The games were there to be won.

We are not half decent though.

Bring on another battle for the spoon.

I have to believe with all of our available $$ we have some better players on the way.

We will do well to avoid the spoon

Just can't see us avoiding it though

Doesn't matter how close we get we just keep losing
