Steve Folkes take a bow

We would have lost a heap of games this year if he hadn;t completely changed the mental toughness of the Tiges.
We played like busteds for a lot of that game, missed 10 points in kicks, arm grabbing, fitzhenry at his worst, players a mile out of position etc. etc and still won.
Impressive.
 
And we managed to overcome some bad luck - Payten's knock on over the line and the Cows second try from incorrect call on Fitzy's knock back. It is mental toughness. Tigers for the title!
 
We would have lost the last three games if this were last year, and by a considerable margin. There's only been one game where they've truly given up this year and that was against Souths. Even against the Cocks in round 2 we still came back and put another 20 on the board in the second half and never gave up.

Folkesy has instilled a culture of determination and grit into the club and when Sheens finally leaves, Folkesy should be handed the reins.
