??? When they were on the field all they did was defend . Both up to minute 30… and again when they came on . How many tackles did they make . How many tries were scored down the guts ? May was rock solid . He worked his guts out in defence closing down when they shifted and turned the ball inside .
I’ll say again … to people pay attention to when and how we defend. not just the tryline stuff , but midfield when nothing is on . And see how hard guys work .

They did work great. The middle was a wall. But Twal led the tackle count and still managed to do over 120m in attack.
 
A win against a team at their home ground that the media were saying this week are a top 8 side
With our starting 5/8 and both centres not playing is a great effort.
Winning builds confidence for our whole team especially for our very young outside backs.
Having 2 good big backrowers is making a huge difference to the way we look and are playing.
Go the Tigers 🐅

Yeah your right. Fainu didn't run heaps but he made 40 tackles and had no misses. Great work.

Honestly our forward pack is as good as any. Like how Seyfarth came on fresh at the end. Brings decent defence and effort.

Yeah not sure. I don't think Pole and May work as a front row in attack anyway. Twal was the only one with go forward through the middle.

Luai will be there. Douhie and Madden fight it out for halfback. Madden is a more genuine halfback. But can't leave douhie out of. The side.

Let's hope the Luai question is answered in the next few weeks.
Madden 7----Doueihi 6. They now have a 3 games opportunity to form a great combo.
And Latu to make it more complicated.
At the moment Luai is behind the 8 ball IMO.
Let's not forget Luai let Souths in for a try last week. His defence is not perfect either.

Luai could have 10 back to back doozies and he ain't being dropped. He is our 6. Hes a co captain too isnt he?

Benji has some big calls to make thats for sure.

But if you ignore the dollars, you could leave Luai out. Depends on if you want to win the game or the culture?
Big decision for Benji in a few weeks' time,
 
Latu and Madden playing 7 and 14
Luai at 6
AD at 13
Twal starting at prop with Pole to bench

Winger selection tough too once May and Toa are fit:
Turuva
Tavana
Maka
LL
Skelton
All doing a good job on the wing. Competition for spots is a good thing and will help us during a long season.
