Need to stick with the Eels early or get the jump on them early would be better. Statistically they have been slow starters at home this season while the Tigers have opened the scoring very early on a number of occasions. The Tigers will have to get off the line very quickly and stop Moi Moi and Mateo from offloading and keep them very quiet in the opening spell.
Once again ball control will be the key, the Tigers showed against Penrith once they started to control the ball they were pretty dangerous on the edges and I have a feeling the same applies against the Eels. It should be dry and with Farah, Benji and Lui all sharing the kicking, they should be able to throw up some variety and not kick down Hayne's throat all day if they are smart. When the Roosters flogged the Eels a few weeks ago, they either kicked the ball dead or into the corners away from Hayne and they also stopped the Eels offloads and gave them a touch up as a result.
With Ellis in top form, Heighno playing very solid and Fifita offering good impact off the bench, I think we could see Marshall step it up a notch for this game if the Tigers forwards aim up and go forward.
