LIVE GAME Round 20 v Titans

[liltiger]

That was ugly but gotta take it! Taylan best on ground by far. Turuva with his runs was great too.

Staines almost played himself out of a contract with that one.

I hope Bula is back next week!

Staines gone, Douhi re-signed for 2 years as a utility player. He's earned it the last 3 games imo.

2pts Benji but you have moved everyone around like musical chairs
No wonder its clunky
Benji your experimenting with positional changes has killed our attack
Why was Douehi benched for so long ?
Thank God Douehi can kick
One big positive TAYLAN MAY great game !

 

[Flippedy]

A wins a win.
Good on them.

Yep honestly who cares how we get the points as long as we get the points! There’s been quite a few games this year when we should’ve got the points but didn’t. I’m taking all the arsey luck coming our way now. Anything to keep us from the spoon.

 

[Winston Churchill]

No May today and no win. Wish the dude was playing all year, that quality in the backs might have gotten us another 3 or 4 wins in those close games.

Taylan earned a 7 year contract. Tonight. Make it happen.

Let's not get excited, 'you don't get married on the first date' 😉...
3 year, not top dollar, the better he plays, we pay more each year.... earn it...
But yes.. I do defo think he would be a great Tiger long term. .

And while we're at, let's get rid of some of the dead wood.....
Lets start with Staines....

 

[Speed2burn]

He was shit. Thank Christ AD was there to get us the win.

Luai still seems very disconnected with most of his players. Horrible for most of that game but he did have a couple good plays towards the end

For those concerned that Luai, etc, might leave if Benji gets sacked, maybe more likely they leave if he doesn't.

 

[Spartan117]

Good to get the 2 points for that win after a very scrappy game.

Happy days

He got the promotion of Taylan May to the NRL correct and in doing so he made a huge contribution in winning the game. It is often easier to look for the negatives than the positives when we don't play well.

 

[Winston Churchill]

Bula back next week should see the end of Stains until the following week when Skelton inevitably breaks down again.

 

[Betterdays22]

Only thing to take away from that is we probably avoid the spoon.

That and Taylan May having a decent first game

 

[1eyetiger]

I love the Tigers, however we were awful

 

[magpies forever]

Got to say, part of me was waiting for the final minute Titans try or field goal. BUT, we held on. Woohoo!!!!!!! Thanks Doueihi.

 

[Flippedy]

Grateful for the win boys! We would have lost that game in years gone by. Taylan is going to be a very good player for the club.

For sure! How many golden points or near golden point games have we won in the past? Not many that’s for sure. The tide is turning for us in this aspect as least.

No May today and no win. Wish the dude was playing all year, that quality in the backs might have gotten us another 3 or 4 wins in those close games.

And that is down to Marshall's foresight in selecting him from NSW Cup.

He also cut up the oranges for halftime, so hes a super coach right? FFS the standards are so low around this place.

 

[Betterdays22]

Leichardt should be our ONLY home ground.

We don't win that at Cambo. Simple

 

[Winston Churchill]

And that is down to Marshall's foresight in selecting him from NSW Cup.

He should have played last week in first grade numbnuts.

A win is a win. But that was fkin ugly. It shouldn't have ever been that close. The Titans had more desire to win, the boys played like they should be handed the win. I'm happy for the win, but not for the effort.
