[The Charlatan]

We're going to get f**king dicked big time this weekend.

Going to make sure I am plenty drunk to deal with this one.

 

[Front-Rower]

I thought public floggings were illegal to broadcast, especially on free to air television

 

[Clifferd]

Roosters are a bad match up for us. This will be no different

If we can keep the deficit to less than 30 we've done well

 

[Tiger05]

I keep picking Tigers by 13+. It's not going well for me at the moment.

 

[Vic Mackey]

At the coaches night I went to back in 2015 Jason taylor said when he was at the roosters the forwards would always say how much they loved playing the tigers cause 'they don't tackle us hard.'

He said he was trying to change that and had told this to the Tigers forward to motivate them. The way he was saying it he seemed frustrated so I'm guessing they just plain didn't care.

Wouldn't Be surprised. Josh Hodgson said something similar earlier this year in saying that the raiders love playing the tigers as of late because they are certain they can just smash us up the middle

 

[BrotherJim05]

Roosters 19+ is looking like a good bet

 

[Tiger Ted]

Roosters 19+ is looking like a good bet

We r due to cause a boil over.It won't surprise me if we go close to winning this one.I never thought I'd say this but geez I hope Brooks is fit for this one.

 

[benched tiger]

Only saw the first half last week and going on that effort i kept thinking any side with a decent attack would of put plenty on us.This mob seem to towel us up pretty easy every time.

 

[Rabbits20]

Roosters by 34.

 

[magpie_man]

I still have nightmares about the shellacking we copped from them at Campbelltown back in '04.
The only game I've ever left at halftime.

 

[Vozzy]

Yes that was 56-0 and was one week after losing 50-0 til the dragons. I had never been more down as a tigers fan after those 2 weeks. One year later we won the comp. Never seen such a turn around.

The roosters one was a weird game. We dominated for the first 10-15 mins and I think hadn't a couple of tries disallowed. The roosters scored to make it 6-0 then we nearly scored but a loose pass got scooped up by the roosters who went 90m to score. Then for the last 20mins I don't think we touched the ball and were down 40-0 at halftime.

It was really odd cause as strange as it sounds we hadn't been that bad.

Geez we've put in numerous abysmal performances particularly against the roosters.
There was another game against them @ Allianz approx 4-5 yrs ago on a Sunday arvo & late in the season where we were so pathetic I decided to leave game @ half time & went to the clock hotel in Surry hills so I could erase the horrendous performance from my memory.I ended up meeting & having a beer & great chat with Roy Masters.He couldn't hang around for long as he was getting up early to meet Tommy R so they could go for a massive walk in prep for the Kokoda trail.

The only game I've been to where I've left at half time was that Souffs game at anz 5 odd years ago. Gee we were horrendous in that first half, literally every set Souffs made a break up the middle and I think we were down 30-0 at half time.

I listened to the radio on the way home and little do you know we actually made the scoreline respectable in the end and only lost 31-18

Ya mum by 34.

From memory that was 2012. It was round 25 and we needed to win to likely seal 8th spot. Easts we're coming 2nd last and lead us 26-0 at halftime. Was utterly pathetic.

I remember going to the game with my gf at the time who didn't real like footy. She asked me a million questions during the game and at halftime said 'is losing 26-0 good?' I answered not so nicely, we had a massive fight and broke up a week later

 

[Ron's_Mate]

at halftime said 'is losing 26-0 good?'

I'm sure she found happiness with a Souffs supporter.

 

[super_coach]

We can't beat the Chooks when we are going okay, so you would expect this to get ugly. In saying that East seem to be playing in second gear at present so maybe getting them to drive all the way out to Cambo we just might get them on a off day.

I have negative vibes as I still remember Beau Ryan getting taken out while trying to take a bomb with minutes to go with the Chooks scoring to win by a couple of points. We will need all the luck and than some more luck to win this one
