LIVE GAME Round 4 vs. Eels

[Tiger_heart]

How Hateable ( is there such a word) is Gutherson ?

He is innately so.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Impressive defensive performance on our line & for the length we have been defending non stop for.

Going in 6-6, 44% of ball and huge tackle count in our 20 is remarkable.

If we score 1st in the 2nd half will be interesting if the game opens right up and parra fold.

 

[jadtiger]

Very gutsy effort in the first half with little ball.At least the ref won't have far to go to get a free night on the booze and a friendly poker machine

 

[tiger05premier]

No matter every happens this game we will be flat the next 2 games and lose

 

[Twodogs]

Couldnt really tell watching telly.
The ref was right there and no one blew up.
How can you be so sure?

Because Brown has his head bowed right down so it was impossible to tackle him around the chest.

Stupid application of rules. You run into the opposition and get a knee on your head, all okay, but tackle around the head which is hard not to tackle and it's a penalty. So we have players exposing their faces and getting creamed instead. Where's the players association on this?

I absolutely hate the six again play on rule. Regs give them out like lollies against desperate defence. If I wanted to watch touch footy I'd watch touch footy.

Before the six again rule there weren't as many penalties. So why are we seeing so many six agains? 🤔

 

[Tucker]

I think it’s what will cost us the win. Way too many errors and poor discipline in our half. Not the ref it’s us

Its definetly not the ref.
Every penalty is justified. Our blokes are basically spoiling the game by being meters off side.
Hold the line and move up TOGETHER.

They want the game as fast as humanly possible. Same reason they have canned scrums when the ball goes into touch.

Its been that way for years.
Dont hit them in the head. It is black and white.

LOL good to see all the Wests Tigers victims are out in force....bunch of bloody sooks.
They are off side by meters. Parra are playing too fast for them.

Only cause the ref is doing sweet F.A about Parra twisting in the ruck when we have the ball or we could play it heaps quicker aswell. Second half the penalties will be evened out and someone can explain how we were so ill disciplined in the first half and so disciplined in the second. It's all garbage. Sure we have been offside, but so have Parra.

How Hateable ( is there such a word) is Gutherson ?

yep definitely a word...

 

[Tom Shines]

How good was Utoikamanu early?

Last game and a half he is looking Origin quality…

that out he has in his contract is starting to worry me . The other clubs are coming after him..

 

[Twodogs]

Sezar was 2 metres off side. Stop bitching and enjoy the fact you have a footy team with some ticker. Solid work tigers. Stupid but gritty as F.

Hard to tell on tv because they never show it, but I do see players beat Usain Bolt if they were actually on side and don't get penalized.

 

[Tucker]

Have to play off side when you are getting smashed by ref and camped in your own half.

That makse no sense.
Keep on side and the penalties dry up.

How Hateable ( is there such a word) is Gutherson ?

Absolutely!! Can't stand him but wish our guys aimed up like him every game.

 

[liltiger]

I will say though it looks like Morris has worked wonders on our defence, it's just the One on one missed tackles that are causing us grief.

Agreed,all i ever want is for the ref's to treat both sides equally

 

[Tucker]

They showed the Sezer one, he was almost in the Parra line by the time the ball was released from dummy half.

our scramble is making up for it.

Yeah, every single tackle, a third player comes in, twists the ruck and then one of them lays down as long as possible. It's painful to watch and the ref lets it happen.
