Maguire press conference

[Yossarian]

Proud of the effort. What the West’s Tigers is all about.
Disappointed not to get the reward. It hurts but we’ll get a lot out of it.
Simpkin, halves and Moses good. Liked what Simpkin brought to the team.
Defence was good. Put it down to attitude.
Talked about Nofa moving to the left side. He’s ebbed and flowed in recent weeks.
Not sure on AJ injury.
Mentioned a few decisions that went against us. Questioned why technology isn’t used. Wanted Mitchell situation handled on the field.

He was not. It’s the closest I’ve seen him to being openly critical of game officials.

Nice to hear something other than “we are growing as a group”

 

[Yossarian]

Credit to the press conference organisers - you could hear most of the questions and they changed the backdrop between the two coaches.

Yep he normally doesnt do it, which I like. How he did it tonight was good. He didnt blame the offcials for missing the 2 incidents but simply questioned why the tech is not being used

Alluding to the officials knowing the Mitchell situation will be handled off it away from the media?

Also nice the paramedics could leave his side for once

Basically yeah. He hinted if Latrell gets binned it changes the game massively.

 

[JC99]

Good on him for sticking up for our boys. I hope they play like that for him again next week

 

[watersider]

Anyone see Bennett? 'Tigers were playing first game of footy I've seen them play in a long time'. Summed it up well.

 

[TheDaBoss]

watch us get fined for that comment and latrine get nothing

 

[Snake]

Is Bennett available next season ?

He knew they got away with it, in the presser he got asked what was going through his mind after the game, he replied "relief"

Well, he doesn't want to be called Ricky Stuart.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

He needs to be emphasising tonight needs to be a bassline. The effort isn’t worth Jack if they roll over against Manly next week.

I thought he said “best “ ?

Manly did beat the Titans 36- zip in Mudgee! We can't go into that game reminiscing about that trial game. With Tommy Turbo, they're a different team.

Maybe I misheard. He was full of praise for us, though.

As an aside, Cronk is such a horrible commentator, he was talking about how souths won a game playing well below their best. But Souths completed well and were in good form tonight, that's what pleased about the Tigers performance. And, unlike Cronk, Bennett actually paid tribute to both teams.

I was a little disappointed with Madge's comments. Fair enough to pay tribute to the effort, but he should be talking about finishing off the game better.

No. He should be stating what actually took place. And it takes place too often.
