LIVE GAME Round 18 versus Dragons

[Suzie-Q]

Good morning WTFamily. Game day is here. I have nothing for this post today. I survived week 11, just 😵‍💫, I'm crook, and have had next to no sleep.

The best I can do is:
UTT 🐅 🟠 ⚪️ ⚫️ 🐅

Hey champion @Suzie-Q, just your greeting warms the cockles of all of us!
Yes, it's game day and a biggie for all us Wests Tigers fans.
We just have to win this one.
And your health will pick up with every try, every point - you're going to feel like a new woman!
(Oh, if we lose - just go back to bed!! 😉)

Get well soon @Suzie-Q
Hopefully we get a W and that helps

 

[Tom Shines]

Thanks Suzie for all that you do 👍

I've come to terms that our season is over. I'm worried that if I'm feeling this way, then our squad is potentially a similar way. I have a bad feeling about today. A win will be pleasant, but I am certainly not holding my breath.

 

[TigerTone]

Get well @Suzie-Q
Hopefully our Wests Tigers can get the WIN for us
and it makes you feel better.

Hope you feel better soon @Suzie-Q, a win would surely help there, quickly send a message to the players that they need to win this one for our Suzie. 🤧

Maybe Starford can do a number on Val Holmes again like he did a few years ago in his one great game for us 😂

I remember that game well, we joked at the time that everything he did turned into a disaster & that I was pretty sure that when he left the ground he would find that he had even lost his car keys.

Since it is game day it is time for the reminder of forum rules & expectations.
Swearing & disguised swearing is not allowed.
Personal abuse, aggressive language & childish name calling is not permitted & is totally unacceptable. It is fine to disagree but please do it respectfully and then move on.
Treat your fellow forum members with respect because everyone deserves to feel free to express their opinions & feel heard without intimidation.
Please keep the thread on topic so it doesn’t get bogged down with irrelevant posts that stop the discussion flowing.
Posts that do not respect the forum rules will be deleted and penalty points can be applied and in some cases there may be an account suspension applied.
Naturally we would prefer to not have to take those types of actions so please just think before you type and make the forum a better place for everyone.
So with the rules laid out let’s cross our fingers & toes for a Wests Tigers win & an injury free game.
To the folks heading out to the game, drive carefully, stay warm & cheer loudly.

Thanks Heaps @krissy

Heading to Kogarah soon

The Dragons will definitely come into this game thinking they can walk away with a win.

Bias aside, how does everyone see this playing out?

Personally, I’m a bit worried about our edge defense and our ability to score points. While the Dragons shouldn't cause us too many issues defensively, this feels exactly like the kind of game they’ll rise to the occasion for... especially considering they could have easily beaten Canberra last week with a few better bounces of the ball.

Prediction: Tigers 22 - 16 Dragons

 

[innsaneink]

We need to take confidence from the fact we were away in a hostile environment last week and shouldve got the win
Today will be no different...beautiful day i expect kogarah to be full of dragons fans
Take them out of the equation scoring first...no early concedes.
Just strip it back to basics...coplete sets, no errors etc etc
No games are easy before kick off...wrong attitude and we are gone

Wests Tigers 22 dragons 10

It will all come down to possession. Neither team can defend that well. I'd be emphasising possession above all else.

I think dragons will be up for it and tigers will do their best to turn it into an arm wrestle which will mean it will be too close for comfort.
