LIVE GAME Round 14 v the Panthers

[Suzie-Q]

Good morning WTFamily, from a brisk and sunny morning in the central west.

It's family feud day here, with hubby going for the black cats, and the rest of us backing the mighty tigers.

In all honesty, I'll be glad if we don't let them score more than 20. I'm not feeling at all confident today, despite the resident magpies singing loudly this morning.

Looks like the weather should be good at Parramatta Park, so if you're going, have a great day. If you're watching elsewhere, enjoy.

And as Tigergran always said, UTT 🐅🟠⚪️⚫️🐅

Cleary playing through a hip pointer, he rushed back from an injury in the 2023 game. Tigers 1-12

With Adam Samuela Taylan and Twally in the side I thing
we could have been in with a good shot.

Im looking for How we play.

 

[Spartan117]

Wow

Just checked the ladder after a night in Town


If we win by 130 odd today we could be top 4 again...

The only way we win today is with a good old fashioned ambush. A slow start = instant write off. The forwards need to be violent, force some HIAs/injuries/knock ons. The physicality needs to be 2 levels above the Riff. Grapple for early momentum and hold it for as long as we can. Some six-agains will be needed as well, hopefully Atkins is feeling kind today. If our D and scramble can hold up, i think 24 points should be enough to get us over line in a tight one.

Upset of the season on the cards.

Even if we did beat them, the Dogs beating them would be the bigger upset.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

The forwards need to be violent

In 2026? Yeah, right

Anyone calling a win the upset of the season is not the compliment they think it is.

What happened to Ethan Roberts?

I hope the coach is protecting him from a tough game and he will be in next week. But I think it's just he isn't one Benji's guys and has been given the Skelton treatment. Would rather play a bloke who is no better and leaving than develop the guy who is here for another year and could turn into a handy player in that time.

Rough call given Benji has debuted him, probably ahead of him being ready based on Reggie’s form and what was a total surprise to him at the time . I agree he played well with the opportunity he got. But clearly has more work to do. He’ll be there but all in good time

Looking forward to Cleary trying to not hit Makasini with another shoulder charge like in the Trial. With Mavrik alongside, that's two big hombres running at the pamfers half. Hope they hit him into the River.

Benji recruited him last season so he's one of his guys. The guy has played about 3 Cup games, is very young and has more experienced players ahead of him...can you hear yourself?

Even if we did beat them, the Dogs beating them would be the bigger upset.

With the players we have out, it would be a bigger upset than the Dogs I reckon. At full strength, no upset at all.

Anyone calling a win the upset of the season is not the compliment they think it is.

Why ? We are missing our 3 most potent attacking players plus our middle holds down the fort and has been origin level . In fact in fairness all 4 players should have been in the origin frame / conversation but Laurie and the panthers brigade think otherwise . (Haven’t won a series btw in all thier brilliance outside of the Madge year)

I dont get on the drink when I go to games, but today I was thinking I need to just to get through it....then Ancient Magpie gave us all a huge wake up call with what really matters in life. Im going to this game happy just to be there, win or lose, and no beer.
