Why does Makasini need to come back in at 3? He was way out of his depth last time. Did you notice that Turuva was very solid in defense there?

Pretty hard for a 7 to look good too. Did you see the tackling stats for the two? Madden at least did his job in defense whereas Jarome missed 6 and really did nothing at all in attack, except dance on the spot.

I agree, I thought Mason did alright. He definitely put in and I liked his cut out to Laulilii for the try. Unfortunately, went himself on the last twice.

Too true. Why has all the resilience gone out the window? Has Benji become too matey and soft again?

Let's face it. Some people like Madden, some don't. I'd even venture to say that some have it in for Jock and can't wait to call him a reserve grader. He was great when paired with Douehi and the forwards were doing their job. He's playing in a different side now and the cohesion has gone out...

Agree completely. Putting him straight back in when he looked shaky last time and when the team are likely to be whipped by Manly is not a good idea.

I thought he looked quite slow and ineffective with the ball.

3 - Taylan May - Head and shoulders our best. Possibly one of the best games played by a centre in the NRL this year. Outstanding in attack and defense. 2 - KPP - A constant menace in attack with his offloads. Lots of defensive work as usual. 1 - Alex Twal - I give him points every game but I...

And it annoys me unbelievably. Achieves nothing and actually jolts our attack. Does he think he's 19 still? Like Jarome but he's starting to look past it.

I agree but I think KPP hasn't been far behind.

Yep, died with the ball twice.

You can criticize the Tigers for two poor defensive efforts but we've been absolutely decimated by injuries and suspensions. This has destroyed all the cohesion we'd built up in defense and attack.

The commentators make me laugh. Talking up the comeback, down 16 points with 12 to go and, sure enough the bubble bursts when Munster strolls over......

Excellent? Surely, you're joking.

Why are you convinced Makasini is the saviour? Great potential yes but ready for NRL? No.

Taylan May head and shoulders Tigers' best.

What? Makasini did nothing in NRL.

Souths played the perfect game to be beat the Sharks. Good line speed, effective strong tackling and mistake free, well executed attack. I was surprised by the winning margin though. Thought they might struggle to score without Latrell but no problem at all with Walker, Gray and Johnson all...

Noone is questioning Benji's tough stance on Tavana and Toa and, to be honest any sensible coach would have done the same thing. With his 3 dumb, costly errors, Sione could have joined those two as part of the firm statement. He probably deserved to be dropped more than Sukkar but he had...
