LIVE GAME Round 25 vs Roosters

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

Looked the best he has in a long time because he actually had room to look threatening... AD cannot be in the halves (if he's here next year)

Bula finally found a god damn pass. I have been yelling at the TV for the past 2 months "PASS THE GOD DAMN BALL, BULA!"

i would say that pass was marginal and not forward, however there were 2 passes that led to that try at halftime right after Luais pass, especially that one from Robson to Walker that was close to a meter forward, he passed before the 10m line and Walker caught it about 1/2m over the line. even the commentators mentioned it a few times.

That Wests Tigers "forward pass" looked to me like it was touched by a Roosters player, I thought Luai would have challenged that for sure, unless they can't challenge forward passes these days?

He's buggered after 80mins of playing out of his skin and copping a nice shiner doing it.

Api is honestly such an inspiration. No matter how bad his team has played, how hard things have gotten, how many others have left, he has stood here strong both on and off the field. He has played very few bad games for us. He has never once dogged it on the field or taken a week off.

I hope we can give him at least one finals appearance before he finishes, he deserves it. He's bordering on a club legend for me. The standards are low, I know, I'm just grateful that he hasn't ditched us after three spoons and a year like this.

The marky mark no try should never be a try. Goes to show how horrible the refereeing has become that there was even potential of it being given a try.

His ball carrying arm hits the deck prior to the lost ball, at that point the tackle is complete. bunker is equally cooked.

Wow! Just watched the replay! Bloody hell!!!

I have been watching this year's win and last year's 30-28 win on loop! 🐯 🍻 🤣🐯🍻🤣🐯🍻🤣

2 years in a row we beat the Chooks in similar circumstances

And some sprint training for Saukuru as well. And touchdowns closer to the posts.

Needs defence improvement most of all. Him defending next to half-arsed Luai is an invitation for opponents to run at them.

 

[fjdiehard]

It's such a shame, because with the ball he's great

At least now we have seen what his defence is like after calling him to be selected for first grade. After this season he will have to go back and work on his weaknesses. There is still room for improvement as he is still young.

Twal will be unlikely to play again this season. With few games left and his HIA history it would be better for him to stand down.

 

[orange&black]

Just a comment on the negative Tigers commentary on TV and the way many of them disparage us. Sure we have not given them much to laud us over but to carry on about how the Roosters were missing key players such as Teddy and Tupou…. Really? Firstly their replacements are very capable NRL players and secondly there was no credit to the Tigers who were missing Twal, May, KPP, Hunt, AD and replacing them with inexperienced kids.

Can we do the double on them ?

We play the Cows,
Dont we.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

I liked the way the field goal attempt was set-up with Pole running to the left for the right boot of Madden. It was clinical which no doubt left the Roosters shocked. I hope it keeps Robinson up at night.

Pole is our Spenser Leniu, younger and it seems more effective in a team not so packed with talent the Roosters enjoy.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

I'd say Maddens poor kicking was due to his recent stay in hospital ?
So you would have thought Luai would have helped out since he would have known about that ....

I thought most of his kicking was strategic.
Bombs to pin them down or have a chance to retreive. Benji instructions?

 

[Tiger Stripes]

I see that this week Benji was giving his coaching assistants lots of credit.

He's listening? Taking note.
Just maybe they have better insight than Benji thought?

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Solo looks pretty good 2 games in. I know he has missed a couple of tackles but surprised it took him this long to get a start. With him and Herbert we have great depth to allow the likes of Makasini to develop.

I think Solo has been blessed so far with the ball getting spread wide more often (no Doueihi).
However, I think the opposing coaches will sus him out with his lack of speed and experience and just run around him or over him. We will soon see; but hope Benji can help him overcome some of these deficiency's now and in the off season training.

And that makes sunday's win so much sweeter,
And Robbo being the great Coach he is would have pointed out to his players to not forget what the West Tigers did to them in the second match last year.
So they were prepaired for that possibility, and we still got them.
SO, NO EXCUSES. ROBBO.
