How sweet it is to win against Mexicans, and again and again, within just few weeks :slight_smile:
I salute the Coach and players, what a transformation, Cleary is arguably the most improved coach in the NRL .
To 'I've seen enough' crowd, and doubting Thomases - this team is not a fluke :sign:
Brooks plays this season like we always expected he can play, is this maturity, Cleary, Marshall or all of the above,
he finally arrived :sign:
Another great D, our defence is arguably suddenly the best in the league :slight_smile:
Marshall greatly contributed, again, his restart when we got the ball back and field goal, it would only be better if he scored
after that fantastic Brooks pass.
Lawrence finally plaid like we want him to play, we waited for 6 years :blush: , hopefully this game will not be an exception :slight_smile:
We need more consistent goal kicker, and Thompson is better FB than Lolohea, shown again today.

Yep Sharon had his taste of what to expect this season and the dogs are turning on him and the princess is helping with team morale at the eels. love it love it

I knew once Hasler was sacked that they would have a bad season.
I bet Sharon is having regrets big time.

I think he had regrets once IC took charge. Poor advice from his manager. Big bucks does not mean great career path.

Manager got a bigger commission. Thats all he cared about.

Liddle and Reynolds should be good sharing hooker. Godinet needs to be dropped.

At the very least he should never be allowed to kick the ball. All have been terrible.

Not sure how we did that and thank God you don't have to draw a picture but 2 points is two points

Annoys me slightly the praise for Marshall apart from one try saver he was ordinary but he kicked the winner I guess

Thank you IC

Brooks was super , took control today when it counted easily my MOTM

Yeah not to bad from Brooks the happy tiger 13th ranked halfback in the entire NRL…

I think one of the the good things about these wins is that there is still a lot of room for improvement.

I think based on his inconsistency most would of agreed at that stage Geo

He is playing like a different footballer , confident and takes the big moments by the scruff of the neck

Good to see isn't it :sign:

Worried about Packer knee injury. 8 Day turnaround might not be enough time. IC hinted he was in trouble at the Press Conference. Sue & Grant have been getting better. Grant looks leaner and was very mobile and quite good for Magpies today & played 60 minutes.

I wasn't and I didn't agree ..yet plenty did I guess..I haven't seen them to ask…

Love these close wins this early in the season, builds confidence for later, and good to get 2 points on the board even though our attack hasn't clicked yet.

The Tigers of old just didn't win these games.

 

[Cairnstigers]

Just saw the short pass to Lawrence who goes in to score
Great pass and run
He has dropped plenty of those in the past but did well to hang on
Want more of that this season

 

[TurnStyle]

Now I can see what IC means when he talks about the team. Although some of our players were off, others lifted to carry them home. Best game I have seen Rowdy and Brooks play for a long time. Unbelievable.

So UC IC?! 😆

In the past the opposition defense was always on the front foot.
With our defense now… Brooks. And Rowdy has room
The passes he's dropped have always been in traffic... But he's scored many tries just like this

Remind me Geo , who since the dawn of time has been banging on about Brooks utilizing his running game far more often and how much it would benefit his game ??

 

[momo_amp_medo]

Proud to be a tiger, that defence is unbelievable

Unfortunately missed it …. can’t wait to watch replay when we get home.
Yep .... this team is a real deal.
Congratulations to the coaching staff, club, the players and all long suffering supporters.
Finally I can go through the week happy.
Now let’s keep this up.
Go you good things!

Not sure but I do remember you giving it to me over the years for backing him throughout his career…still only a pup..

I thought that when Melbourne went for that penalty goal about 20 mins before full time that they were making a mistake - should have went for a try, six points was not enough. Bought my mate beer when was over.
