LIVE GAME Round 16 v Raiders

[stephen]

Which player is on restricted minutes in the NRL? Just name one that’s not at our club.

It's hard to watch him on the bench, but right thing to do long term.

 

[Mighty Mouse]

CROWD: 9,328 at Campbelltown Stadium, #NRLTigersRaiders tonight.

Can we just retire campbelltown already

 

[Wiz]

Mate Latu is better than Luai, let alone the other runt that left.

Sam had his best game in ages and Sione is our second best middle and has earned the start

I was just thinking the same thing. I reckon Latu is better than Luai. Luai clearly bringing more than just his on field performance. I am glad we have both of them.

 

[Droppy05]

Cmon mate, he’s a good bloke. Looks like he can’t coach for shit, but that doesn’t matter

That's right. He is a good bloke and therefore should be our coach!

 

[Steveo07]

Good morning WTFamily!

Despite thinking I would be rested and relaxed, looking forward to a leisurely drive to Campbo, here I am, wide awake, listening to my chainsaw husband snoring away 🫩

So, we'll be heading off later this morning. Can't wait!!

[Vicious]

The better team lost tonight.....😮‍💨

Can’t win too many if you have all the ball and struggle to score a try,

 

[Lestronge]

And tackles like a lock forward!

Man once we find some continuity with him finally taking the 6 , we will be like who? Many of us have said Fainu is infinitely better than that pencil neck . It’s not even close IMO .
Just one guy is the great white hope ..

 

[old_man_tiger]

Benjis done a great job with building the family culture, playing with your bros clearly sparks something special.
Luallii Bros
Fainu Bros
Api and Tito are cousins

Should seriously try to pry Fonuas brother from Melbourne

In all seriousness, based on the current results and position do you feel "great job" is an apt description? I won't go on and on about it, just curious and feeling pretty down after 5 losses and 4 "coulda woulda shoulda" games

 

[Tucker]

Bula should have claimed the try and not played the ball. Would have forced the ref to make a call and the video ref would have looked at it. It was either dumb by Bula or he knew he didn’t score. I thought it might have been a double movement from Bula.

Yeah the double movement was the risk. I thought he did the right thing playing on to cover it.

 

[69-05-41]

Latu played 55 mins and was the best player on the field
FFS Benji make Latu and Luai the permanent half's pairing
Don't leave him on the bench

In those 55 minutes:
12-0 score
1 try assist
1 line break
1 line break assist
13 runs for 108 metres
16 tackles 0 missed
3 tackle breaks

 

[Garrry]

It's all over, but did the Stuart try come off a forward pass?


View attachment 24142

It's all over, but Stuart's leg was on the sideline when he saved the 40/20

 

[Wiz]

The club coaching staff in particular felt he was better than Galvin injury and attitude were the handbrake. I hear it’s the same with TDS and Haywood. Sounds like Api will get extended and TDS gone.

Interesting intel on the TDS / Haywood situation. You have an in with the club / coaching staff?

 

[cone]

And tackles like a lock forward!

His defence is beautiful and honestly super underrated. Halves especially young ones struggle with first grade contact but he seems to have no issue with it. He put a lot of big shots on tonight, so much better than watching Galvin arm grab and piggy back

 

[TT 01]

Haha that head but is a sin bin or send off any day of the week but because we didn’t lay down it gets missed

 

[Halbrowne61]

I’m just looking at our draw for the next 3 weeks.
Manly@ Brooky
Easts @ Allianz
Warriors@ Mt Smart
No relief at all there, we could well be back last ( again) after that little trifecta.

I said a great job building the team culture.
He is clearly not on the same level overall as Cleary, Bennett, Bellamy but he has managed to get more wins than the last 3 spoon years, that’s a clear improvement and he has until 2026 imo

 

[old_man_tiger]

Yes I admit to be being in a bad mood on Luai. But he hasnt stood up to ice a game in 5 winnable games in his last 5 starts, including origin.
We are better with him, but not contenders just by having him.

 

[simonsatiger]

Don't know if anyone else noticed and there was no replay aired but the winger in the hair pull incident was at least 5m offside from the kick. Funny how the video ref was happy to go back to the start of the play on the bula offside but only looked at the tackle on that one

i posted it clearly offside

 

[Droppy05]

Yep.

Most of the pieces are in place. We're getting closer. A few more upgrades in areas that are still costing us games.

Closer to number 4.
