They'll still be feeling it 4 days later though. You never know.........
Playing a backup game close together is actually good because it prevents the build up of lactic acid in the muscles and most players at this level enjoy it. But as you say mate, they would be feeling any bruises or niggling injuries.
Bring it on.

Proper shit from the tigers, ill discipline arising from being completely outclassed, Douehi’s foul on Bateman just plain stupid. Only positive is that the only tries scored by N QLD have been while the Tigers were one short. Tigers looked tired and slow. Favourites for the spoon now. I’m done with Benji as coach, going into the game with the same bench as the Rabbits game is a disaster, Twal going down early with this shit bench will cost us. I’d be surprised if we don’t get 40 -50 put on us.

I don't consider that a foul. Is he supposed to just run out of the way or something. That was a stupid penalty. I'm not sure if Turuva was tackled without the ball as well.

We are a stupid team though. Just stupid.

On the positives To'a is a gun.

It was dead set stupid, didn’t have to touch him at all he wasn’t getting to the ball

I don't think he did anything at all. Luai was stupid.

I haven't been pissed off in a while with our team but I am this week. Some dumb plays by Hunt and Bird are frustrating. I'm not sure if either player should be in our top team.

Just dumb footy from the team in general. It's hard to watch.

I’m over the coaching, the tigers don’t have a reliable system, you see the better teams they’re able to rely on their systems everybody does their job and more often than not it takes the panic out of the football. Tigers get flustered they leave whatever plan they have behind, we don’t play a percentage game.

Sure as shit Bula is gone as soon as he can get out, kid has had another outstanding game on the back of a shit tigers side, its got to be frustrating for him to give 100% every week only to watch the front line fall to pieces over and over.

Over Luai’s rubbish stepping and sideways running, I know he’s having a go and its ok every now and then but it’s an illustration how we keep running away from a game plan, it destroys an attacking structure for subsequent plays. Terrible

Mason lacking match fitness couldn’t keep up with the pace tonight he gonna need three or four games

Luai needs to get a haircut then fk off.. I don’t care in which order .. He’s obviously taken on the senior role to ease Mason into it? If his skills matched his seniority he’d be ok but they don’t.. Hes been suspect with his keadership for me for a while now (separate from the barking and organising) …as predicted we’ve been lost near the line all year..It’s a race to the bottom now

A shit try either side of the break killed our chances. Spirited finish but we dug too deep a hole.

On another note did Hunt get injured? Didn’t see him after his first stint

Totally agree. What pisses me off is Luai goes to pieces as well.

Sure as shit Bula is gone as soon as he can get out, kid has had another outstanding game on the back of a shit tigers side, its got to be frustrating for him to give 100% every week only to watch the front line fall to pieces over and over.

Maybe. Bula is a weapon.

I'm actually like Luai but he isn't given us value for money. I thought Mason was pretty good in that he was better than Galvin has been.

There is plenty to like in our team and plenty to get frustrated about. The coaching needs to be better. Luai and Api need to lead better. Sione Fainu was real good. I think Sukkar has something and he is an edge player. Staines was good. To'a is a weapon.
