LIVE GAME *SPOILERS* Round 2 vs Raiders

[Tucker]

Gotta hope latu can come in and take the 6 and move Galvin to 7 because bud ain't it and sezer (didn't get much of a chance) isn't it either

Sezer should be the 7.
Fainu and Galvin to share the 6

This ref is absolute rubbish.

Yeah, it’s his fault

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Ref was worse for the Dogs game last night.

Also , some nice waves rolling in ,,,

 

[SeanT]

I see a cpuple pf posts about the ref? Are ypu kidding me. The forwards are too skinny and are getting owned, bud ran once, against 3 defenders, toa and stains wpuld have tp be the worst edge in history amd tp be fair i think the fullback needs to grow some anger as well. Just cruising arpund like Latrell.

Galvin, api, and pole maybe. The rest needs to eat some concrete

 

[Droppy05]

Useless team and coach. Spoon 3 coming.

 

[Tiger_heart]

Not much to select from, did you see our reserve grade side play ?

Yeah, that makes us feel better... With no depth to call on, God help us.. ;-)

 

[Telltails]

Looking at what we've just seen, it really looks like previous years. We looked like the worst team in the comp from what I've seen so far.

That's because we are.

I don’t blame Stef there. Gough needed to know about his series of weak calls.

True, but I'd rather Stef make a bigger statement by lining up the bloke who hit him next time.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Yeah, it’s his fa

mate, are you a referee or related to one?

 

[1908]

Who was the last team to run last 3 times in a row? Was it the Magpies?

 

[bradexl]

Disappointed but 8-0 second half was reasonably respectful. Olam and Naden need to own 3 & 4. Sezer 7 Galvin did enough to earn 6. Don't know what the answer is but for starters need more intensity in defence and awareness when in attack 20m out.

 

[Zach]

Not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Interesting those putting the boot in. Not sure what you were expecting given the difference of experience and quality between the two teams. Galvin was great for a debut. I will be at Leichardt next week

im not sure anyone was expecting a win here, but far out, i was expecting to see some sort of improvement, anything to show me we have been working on bettering ourselves then the last season.....it looks like we have NOTHING positive added to the club and how it plays football.

The same rubbish, over and over again.

 

[cktiger]

Yeah, it’s his fault

He didn’t help.

 

[stephen]

Stef really saying what we all think lol

Haha. Stef always big on the talk.

 

[Tiger_heart]

Useless team and coach. Spoon 3 coming.

If only it looked like stopping at 3 ...sigh!!

 

[Tiger-ferret]

That loss is on Benji.
His inexperience is on display.
Poor team selected and prepared.

Also the use of the bench

 

[GNR4LIFE]

mate, are you a referee or related to one?

We’re seriously going to blame the refs?

 

[king_sirro]

Definitely a few positives there. That first 15 minutes without the ball zapped us.

Good signs from the bench forwards, Pole, Fainu and Twal were all solid.

Galvin was incredible. It's embarrassing that he's running the ball to the line and getting smashed because there are no running options.

For me Sullivan, Seyfarth, Staines and Toa are not up to it.

Scary thing is watching reserve grade before this game, the cupboard is bare when it comes to depth...

While overall it was a typical Tigets performance I do agree there were some positives. I think Benji will be a lot clearer in his selections.

Sezer easily starts for Sullivan.

Seyfarth didn't take his chance. As someone who has said all along he hasn't been used right, judge him once that happens...well I guess I'm wrong. He was very ordinary.

Sam Fainu better then I thought. At just 20 he will be a quality forward with a big motor.

Toa has the ability to be a star but has no heart. I'd rather Casey there.

If you take circumstances into account I think it's fair to say Galvin was outstanding. 18 year old half in a pathetic team who played and played and played. Good moments, not good moments, but just kept himself in the game. Defended great. Wow, I was so pumped for Latu Fainu who will be a star, but Galvin is the real deal. What a young player.

Staines and Tupou terrible.

Isaiah was strong, Bateman strong at times but juts a stupid meathead. He set the scene early by giving away that 4th tackle penalty. Just a dickhead really.

Klemmer...well how can anyone support this guy. It's only the paper stats guys that support him. He continually gives the opposition momentum. Slow play the balls in attack and absolutely the softest contact ever seen by a front rower in defence. He makes every tackle, so stats looks good, but reality is he goes in so soft he provides great momentum for the opposition. He is a cat. I have never seen a front rower tackle so soft.

 

[BalmainJnr]

I thought the guys in green who outplayed them were the reason we lost.

Canberra played a steady game.
We didn’t challenge them due to being poor in every fundamental aspect of the game. Unforced errors, no line speed, poor first contact, missed tackles, unnecessary penalties, largely no ball runners in attack and no attention to detail.

 

[Tiger-ferret]

Sullivan. It has only taken one game to see he is a dud.

I’ll give him one more game if he gets one
