we're grinding and playing ugly here. Will be a very very interesting 2nd half.
C'MON YOU TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!

Very good to be up at half. Right now Tigers have zero attack and I can't really bank on them scoring another try. Defense is OK though so hopefully that holds up. Will be an ugly half.

Our energy seems very flat . Also crowd is quite quiet. Need to louden up to lift the boys to a win

 

[PYMBLEPETE]

Great pretty even first half; really high quality handling from both sides. Cows slightly more dangerous IMO.

Austin looks so much sharper than Anasta!

Good stuff from Gavet but still missing a few too many tackles.

 

[stryker]

Cows look more likely, we seem a bit of a mess.

shocking game from brooks so far.. now i realised the importance of anasta with brooks out there. hopefully he gathers himself at half time and kills it.

gavet has been amazing so far. it was gavet's try rather than farah and all our props have been exceptional.

hope marty's not too srs and maybe just cramped quads or something.

rowe has been excellent in defense i think. both wingers have been quiet obviously.

lawrence has been pretty good- he would kill it in the backrow i think.

Anybody know how bad a hip flexor injury can be?

It's all about the energy

What would we do without Robbie Farah? One try and two try saving tackles, so far.

Lift the intensity early in this half and we will win.
Don't, and we won't.

Very much so, Farah commented on the lack of energy coming off the field at halftime. Hopefully we can pick it up a gear in the second half as the Cows look more likely with their second phase play.

with these 2 sides I doubt this will be a close 2nd half. One side will make a mistake and it will snowball from there to a 15-25 point margin.

Here's hoping it's them that make that first big mistake.

Some say 1-2 weeks some say 4-6 weeks so 1-6 weeks.

Could be a couple of weeks…depends how stiff and sore he pulls up once it cools down.

 

[Zaibatsu]

Gavet has been immense!

I hope Taupau is ok though, he's had another strong game, we definitely don't need him out…

Same as any other sprain/strain - depends on the severity of the tear.

Brooks needs to work on his general kicking.

 

[Tigerdave]

Martin back, must be ok

 

[softlaw]

Brooks to fire up in the 2nd half and lead us to a strong win.

Agree on both counts. Hopefully Akaoula makes a good impact also.
