LIVE GAME Round 16 v Dolphins

[Tim Sheens]

My initial impression was Api would go to halfback and Lanyon at hooker. Would have thought it was the better choice

No, Lanyon cannot play the 60 plus straight minutes at nine that would have been needed.

 

[Wezt]

Honestly good effort, but another game lost due to injuries.
We have what? 11 injuries now? 😭😂

Mate dolphins are without 5 origin players

 

[Tom Shines]

Daymn some of you have started early on the drink

Yes … 15 years ago since that Warriors semi final

 

[weststigers]

Benji needs to take the blame AGAIN for this one.

And Campbelltown. 3 from last 15. AGAIN some blame lies there.

 

[TigerTone]

what looked like a winnable game , was thrown out the window.

thems the breaks!!!

take care all....see you next week!!!

 

[Siberian Kitten]

Both teams are missing heaps of key players. It's been a battle of attrition.

Still hearing about all the Phin players that were out today, thanks Foxtel

 

[Tigerad]

Daymn some of you have started early on the drink. Many times our team deserves harsh criticism. Weren’t perfect today sure but effort was good considering

They got beat by 14 points to a team
Missing many players ou wax pathetic it’s why we never make the 8 of you accept this as acceptable enjoy is not being in semis again fir -6 years

 

[Fraze23]

For all the weeks that Latu has rode the pine and come on at lock, you can only wonder what would have happened had he of come on at halfback today.

Down on troops before coming into this game, losing two more in the process and a very questionable refereeing performance, they've done well to compete as long as what we have against an in form dolphins.

Injuries have buggered any chance we've had this season.

 

[Winston Churchill]

There is zero chance this side plays finals. The weakest the dolphins have been all year and they pump us. We deserve better than this shit

And the Club coundnt give 2 shits. They know the dopey fans continue to turn up every week like the morons we are. We deserve nothing but disappointment.

 

[nrlsurvivor]

Benji is an idiot for putting mason on
Luai is an idiot for letting mason kick

Wheres the leadership

That’s harsh on Luai the ball was spread all the way over to the right.

Tigers haven't had a leader since Farah.

 

[Tiger_heart]

Effort was certainly there, no doubt. This said, the fins also had quite a few players out. Hopefully we'll have a few back next week, but gee, it will be an uphill battle from here.

 

[Blaze]

Way too slow playing the ball by the whole side. Not getting the Dolphins on the back foot.

It does my head in… they can see the other team getting away with shit in the ruck, but they play by the rules and stuff themselves over…

 

[Jimmy]

Duke is so cringe bruh. How about we say No
Doueihi, Hunt, Twal, KPP, Fainu
Lose
Herbert, Madden
Our entire second row is out. Some perspective goes along way

 

[liltiger]

Dolphins have been in the comp for 4 years. They have so much better depth than us. We need whoever is looking after their roster. So sick of supporting a team who just treads water. We could have won this today. Benji needs to be looking at our training. Were being smashed with shoulder injuries this year. 1 or 2 is totally understandable. When you have multiple pretty much all in the backs then there might be something in our training. Gutted.

 

[Winston Churchill]

Next week against the Knights is MUST win

Seasons gone bud. The players have checked out and booked their Sept holidays already.

 

[Year_of_the_Tiger]

Doom and gloom here. We did ok against a form side - both sides players out. Decent effort after we lost Jock.

 

[Tim Sheens]

We win that if Madden hadn't been taken out of the match, and we got absolutely nothing from the clearly high and possibly late contact either.

A player has blood pissing from a head wound, yet crickets from all officialdom.

 

[Milky]

No, Lanyon cannot play the 60 plus straight minutes at nine that would have been needed.

He played 56 mins last week. Playing Api at 7 would have preserved a player from the interchange bench in the event Jock came back allowing us to stick to the original plan.

Besides, Api’s value at 7 far outweighs Mason’s. Lanyon’s value at 9 far outweighs Mason’s value at 7.

No brainer IMO
