We'll lose this I can just feel it.

For sure! Knights only win last year with the kick from the second ball on the field. Lost year before too, game we should have won. Knights 13+

 

[Tiger05]

They are heaps better than us. We might though turn up for one game and get some calls our way.

 

[Rabbits20]

Lol.

You sook when a non lol@souffs fan posts in the lol@souffs subforum about a game their team isn't involved in, yet here you are....

 

[Tiger Ted]

They r in much better form than us & at home should win this comfortably.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

I think tigers have this game actually. Watching the knights throw away the game against the dragons was unbelievable. Everything about their defence was so weak, effortless especially in the second half. They don't play the full 80 and I can see tigers tearing the game open at one point.

Their piss poor defence means nothing if our piss poor attack can't exploit it.

 

[Vozzy]

Plus we have piss poor defense as well.

 

[Clifferd]

If Tedesco plays we probably win

Other than that I got no idea

I think if Tedesco plays you guys win by a considerable amount. The experience on the paddock should get you the game. You guys can put points on the board it's just the overreliance on Tedesco that's a bit of a problem. Lolohea needs to come out of his shell. He is such a gun but he's too shy.

 

[The Charlatan]

Hasn't Teddy done his ankle or something, or was that just bullshit?

 

[Souths Till I Die]

f**k you would hope not. It's kind of a dog move if he's just gonna skip all the tigers games and just play origin because of a "ankle" injury.

It also depends on which Tedesco turns up

If State of origin teddy turns up I agree

However if Lazy Tigers Teddy turns up well it'll probably be close with newy winning

He actually injured it yep, I heard sterling say just after half time he hurt it

Couldn't have been that bad though if he kept playing on

 

[The Charlatan]

Yeah pretty sure I heard he was out for a couple of weeks, just in time for Origin 3 of course.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Apparently Aloiai was telling fans on Friday night he'll be back for this game. On Twitter tigers said they hope to have Lawrence and teddy back. If all 3 play we should win. CL and JA aren't superstars but it likely means Lovett is pissed off and Sue goes back to bench prop which makes our team immensely better.

The full 80 minutes? These two teams?
