Round 21 2005 Wests Vs Cronulla

The day the Tigers as a team realized they could go all the way

Pretty sure it was 2013, Roosters vs Manly late in the season, very low score (something like 8-4), Roosters won unfortunately. That game just had brilliant desperation defence and was action packed. Probably the most mesmerizing game since the NRL's inception.

Yeah I was going to mention this game too, think it was a semi final…and maybe 4-2???

Yep that was it, a semi-final that finished 4-0\. A fellow forumer put the highlights of it up on page 1 of this thread. A classic of a contest.
Loved the way those Manly teams of that era played the game, skillful intimidating forwards who defended as a pack of demons and plenty of class in the backs. They were great to watch, always admired the way that team played.

I think the game v Cowboys in Rd 23 was when happy had an inkling

When you concede a try , kick off , have the ball hit the cross bar and we regather and we score it begins to dawn that the stars and planets are all aligning :laughing:

Yeah me too…hard not to be envious.
They attacked with their defence, it was brutal

Tigers Flogging the Raiders 49-12 - from what I remember of it every try we scored was a beauty.

oh, and this one - arguably Blake Ayshfords best game for us in Tigers colours.

Not even kidding.

Led by Jason King….that bloke was a lunatic!
Clearly remember a game when Adrian Morley was playing for the Roosters and he was ironing blokes out left, right and centre with shoulder charges and King winds up in a suicidal hit-up and got absolutely smoked by Morley-the force of it blew him backwards airborne! Then Matai took the very next hit up and got completely wasted by Morley's shoulder and spilled the pill. Those 2 runs and tackles were just bliss for a lover of hard RL. Would love to see a replay of that piece of action, might have to try to track it down.

On a related note, just found this video. I forgot what an incredible forward pack the Dogs used to have.

O'Meley, Mason, Bill-Williams, Ryan, Asotasi, Myles. You're not gonna lose too many games with that pack.

My favourite is any game we win

 

[OzLukeH]

Two of mine are…...

Us losing to the Roosters in the first week of finals....two teams absolutely belting each other before putrid Braith Anasta hits that unbelievable fg, the Simon Dwyer blowing Hargreaves' head off in the tackle of the century... Hey Braith, talk to the Tigers about their bad investment in you......

Can't remember the year, but the Tigers /Storm game where Buckets was unloaded on by Danny Williams. Slashing rain all night, and the 5k or so of us in the ground just went mental at that......

2008 Grand Final was a magic night. Storm getting violated 40-0, it doesn't get much better than that.

Yup it sure doesn't and I'd backed the eagles for a nice sum to win the comp….and the day they got uncovered for cheating!!!!FINALLY
