It's becoming a long bench. Brailey is a must for one spot to rest Api. Three more spots available. Prop, backline, halves? Doueihi on the bench for covering a number of positions as maybe needed. Then we need some muscle, strength and stamina on the bench. Two strong workhorse forwards...

Now that would put their defence in two minds of what to do. Love it attack coach! Can Bula grubber kick, maybe next year? Still learning Benji's wrap around.

It seems so simple. Mark your opposite number. Keep a visual eye on him. If he crosses over, you cross over and remind your own players what's happened ---- talk! --- Look up! --- Number up! Especially if he is faster than you.

Three cost us the season. Luai, Doueihi and Benji.

My observation {without a replay] was Tupou is so slow and not willing to chase if there is a break. Just gives up because of his lack of speed. We need speed on the wings to chase down breaks from wherever they are from on the field? Not just battering rams to gain 5m. out of our own red...

12 - 10 second half with Luai gone, Latu on. 2 tries each. A big turnaround. They were playing the premiers so that was a gutsy effort. Proud of the effort and stuck to it for 80. Augers well for 2027.

I thought Madden was everywhere, managing the players and game. 3 - Madden 2 - Api 1 - Latu for 2nd half spark

It is so dependent on how Benji assesses each of the players. This year he made the call on Doueihi and Luai to be our halves and stuck to it---promises? Mistake. IMO he should keep his promises to NIL for next year. Luai gone and Doueihi spitting the dummy. No favours for Doueihi in the future...

Players replaced or they just couldn't cope with relentless size 'n power. Stuffing knocked out of them; no one tackled their legs like Api does. They just steamrolled through with guys hanging off them--momentum., and back peddling Tigers.

Souths have so many quality players; and still bought Haas.

When he needs a breather. Not before!

The Sharks pack were just too big and fast. Could not contain them. IMO our best were; Blake Van Drie, Archie Duncombe, Christian Taupau-Moors, Mitch Taotua. When they were off we were slaughtered, and the backline is too small and with no speedsters.

48 unanswered points. I've seen enough. I'm outa here.

Very true. We need to build from within. Stay on course with that mindset. Home grown comradery built over a few seasons outweighs mercenaries. That's why we need the best-dedicated talent scouts at identifying and nurturing those talents. And body types and speed need to be at the forefront...

Would like to meet some of you guys at this game. Put a face to your name. At the main entrance 10.45 am I'll have a Tigers cap on. Just for a meet 'n greet and go your own way.

BWG - Skelton has produced some of his best football over the past fortnight, crossing for three tries across his past two appearances while providing the Tigers with plenty of punch coming out of their own end. The powerful outside back carried the ball 20 times for 152 metres in the Tigers'...

Yeah it was me. That's was the team sheet I had. Plati was No 15. Sorry I got the wrong player. In that case Futialo was the big, slow and MIA player. Shame he had big raps coming from StGeorge. I think he was captain of their H.Mats.

IMO it's like they mustn't talk to each other----call out who they have to mark-----nail their opp. number the first priority and job. Call for help if there's danger looming. Stay outside your opp. number so you can see what they are up to. How common is it now to see a lob pass go to an...

He was 18 going on to 19 rushed into the centre position. No NRL experience. A very important position defence wise and put there out of necessity at the time. It failed big time. His current form is poor, possibly a mental hangover. In hindsight, the wrong decision. Let's hope there were some...

Glad coach Sultana has banished Makasini and Plati. They were rubbish last week. MIA.
