That's probably the strongest the side has looked all season. Tough ask at Lottoland though.
 
Good to finally see Mikaele, Giles and Pap back. Only need Lemuelu back now.

Having Doolan at halfback is still a worry. Big ask for young Garzaniti. Surely there's an actual halfback in the squad somewhere?Probably the smallest halves combo in the NYC, makes it hard in defence.
 
they really put in against newie and were unlcuky to not beat the side coming 4th. hoping for a similar performace against another top 8 side in the eagles.
 
Tigers up 10-6 after 27 minutes. The cubs have dominated possession so far.
 
Manly up 16-10 at halftime. Tigers coming up with some silly plays prior to the break.
 
Manly in again, 24-10 ktc after 53 minutes. Silly errors and a lack of options in attack hurting the Tigers.
 
26-16\. Manly definitely have more talent and power but the Tigers are hanging in there.
 
Pretty good effort by the youngsters today. The one-sided refereeing had them pushing uphill from the outset.
Kimmorley really seems to be keen on sinking the boot into our 20's with a few of his comments. Did he leave on bad terms?
 
Between the 30th and 60th minute Manly scored 20 points with a 7-1 penalty count in their favour during that period, some really good individual talent but not a great side overall but they dug deep.
