Remember tigers said they've have a members player of the year and members would vote on it? Have people been getting emails about that? I can't remember seeing anywhere to do it once all year. Maybe I'm just not high enough paying member?

Luke Brooks looks a certainty for members player of the year

Who’d have thought Tyson Gamble would be the answer to Brisbane’s halves problem after all these years?

He was good when he was here, he never got a fair go though

You had big raps on him I remember . He was amazing today . A half that calls the plays and gets the ball to the backs. Didnt think that existed.

Imagine if Gamble goes on to become a good NRL halfback. The list of stars who are ex-Tigers is running out of space.

To be fair, he was already at the Broncos before his stint with us.

Great ...Holbrook will have the Coasties primed

Doubt it ... they’ve got nothing

**If we can somehow sneak a win against Saints I’d back Us to go 2 in a row**

Two in a row you say?? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Titans are hot garbage and the Dragons bubble has burst . I’d say we are a chance

We haven't seen a run of wins like that for years
How amazing would that be

I was calling for him to be given a proper go, he got 1 game against Canberra and we got flogged, everyone was bad that day, but Gamble was the only one dropped, never got another go, hardly fair.

He was with Redcliffe Dolphins when he signed with us

Don’t get your hopes up, it won’t happen.

Broncos may have turned the corner with that comeback performance last night, but keep in mind it was just against the Titans, who aren’t really known for their strong defence. That said, coming back from 22 points down against any team shows a strong mental aptitude, something we desperately lack. It would’ve been easy for them to think that’s just too much to peg back and fold it altogether, but they didn’t.

It would be great if we could pick up like that and actually win a game or two as well, but the difference between us and the Broncos is that they actually have quite a few talented players in their ranks, who up until last night just haven’t been performing well (Haas being the exception).

Unsure mate, it was 2017 when he was with Redlcliffe, so he probably was playing with Benji

Amazing how one player was made a scapegoat out of that. Remember it clearly, it was a freezing day at Campbelltown. I hope he kicks on, just not against us.

Broncos were down 22 zip with 22 minutes to go in the first half when they scored their first try. Great effort ! Similar to Tigers comeback against Cowboys.

Don't understand why the Manly players didn't touch the ball with a foot outside the field then.

Because it would’ve been a line dropout
