Woods is having one of his better games. He is an overrated hack. Moses is just running it and letting Brooks handle the play and Brooks looks good.

You are 100% right though in that there is another half of footy to go.

 

[madunit]

His cover defence is always much better than it is today. Showing no urgency

 

[BuffaloRules]

Tigers attacking options in the opposition 20 have been ordinary all season...

Need to bring in some players that are going to address this for next year...

 

[madunit]

Brooks applying himself much better in defence. He's moving more freely too, so I assume he's had his hamstring and a few niggling injuries all healed.

 

[madunit]

Scores level and the dogs down to 12 men. These are the games you should win, no matter who you are.

 

[Clifferd]

So proud of the team. Great win to hang on

 

[madunit]

Brenko Lee and Greg Eastwood handed us that game in the end.

Credit to the side defensively though.

Brooks man of the match for mine.

 

[Clifferd]

Brooks or nofo.

Some absolute howlers went against us, no way in hell that Bulldogs try was a try.

Held in a tackle, passes off the ground and the 40 forwadd passes in the lead up

That "dangerous tackle" on Morris

Plus we bombed about 3 tries

We were the much better team

 

[Tigerm]

Edwards in the starting team - FMD.

At one stage on the TV screen, he was second in the tackles, not sure how he ended up. Woods MOM??

 

[BuffaloRules]

Suli is going to be a awesome...still so young but looks powerful.....

So no doubt they will lose him he is next off contract...

Woods MOM .. wtf!!! No way in hell was he our best . Brooks, Nofo , Lawrence , Taylor take your pick

Taylor...and i dont mean Jason.

 

[Front-Rower]

Woods will fit in well at the slow dogs

Wanka gets his typical game. He gets stats but rarely does the hard metres. Muppet was crap. Turdface was decent. I can't wait to see the back of these traitors though.

Brooks, Nofo, Suli, Lawrence and ET were good. Kev deserves a mention as well. He stuffed up a bomb but he kept going.

ET made some mistakes out there but geez he works hard. Sue and Ava belted it up.

Suli is a weapon.

I thought Brooks or Nofo, slightly leaned towards Brooks though, he is a strong kicker of the ball isn't he. I think Teddy is a good player, but jeeze he hogs the ball.

Suli is going to be a awesome...still so young but looks powerful.....

So no doubt they will lose him he is next off contract...

We have to keep this kid. He can't be put down. I'd love to see him bust the line but at 18 he looks like a man against boys.

 

[FlameThrower]

Congrats guys...Bulldogs star studded, big money pack, but you guys toughed it out...
There was a shot of Brett Morris, absolutely filthy at his team when that last try was scored..

 

[BuffaloRules]

We have to keep this kid. He can't be put down. I'd love to see him bust the line but at 18 he looks like a man against boys.

This might seem over the top and I am probably still a bit light headed from the unexpected win today but I'll post it anyway...

Suli reminds me of a young Mal Meninga...

 

[benched tiger]

You just knew the WT were a chance today when all the experts picked the dogs to win,we will lose to teams like Parra,Titans and the Knights but turn around and beat teams like the Cowboys,Dogs or Broncos when not expected to do so.
