In honesty I shuddered when you posted that he was on but the opportunity for foot in mouth was way too good to let it slide. Sorry mate hahahaha.

I love Golden when we win. Luckily this year I have enjoyed his heart on the sleeve stuff more often than not.

Yep and now if we can beat the Dragons next week - the first game I will be attending in three years - I will consider us to have clinched a finals spot.

And saved a try on halftime in holding up Thompson with Moors coming in late.

Can anyone shed light on the performance of Wade mckinnon?

 

[Kul]

what a game

we should have won it early, but raiders should have beaten us with our poor handling
thankfully we came out on top

crowd was HUGE!

Can anyone shed light on the performance of Wade mckinnon?

Yeah he was solid without being great. The game will do him good.

He played alright. Made a few errors and wasn't huge in attack. He was a little Tim Moltzen in some of his kick returns (didn't offer much and was dominated).Was taken off around the 65th minute I think for Fitzhenry to come on. I remember him being an awesome tackle breaker a few years ago for the Warriors (he still made a few today though). Hopefully he can get some confidence back and that will start to happen again for him.

Not too sure what I'm seeing here, we should have scored quite a few more, but then they should have scored a couple more themselves.

What's the go with Beau and Lote picking up the ball from kicks then throwing hospital passes to Wade??? Run the ball guys!!!

Benji kicking on the 1st tackle on a fairly low percentage play in the first half, especially considering Lote was only hobbling around earlier.

Chris should have backed himself in the first half rather than trying to pass to Lote.

A lot of dropped ball with the line open, glad they got the win but they did it tough on themselves

 

[Marshall_magic]

Our execution was dreadful, but our defence was strong enough to keep us in it. We stuck to it and got a good win.

 

[bonstonker]

what a crazy game.
frustrating for us to watch at times but for non tiger fans,geez we give some entertainment.

how rhino isn't considered for origin blows my mind.

I thought he was poor. No real mistakes but he didn't look good. Fitzy was a real step up.
