Match Discussion: Round 2 vs North Qld @ Leichhardt Oval, Lilyfield / Wanngal

[simmo05]

A sold out 8th wonder on a glorious sat arvo what could go wrong.An anti climax in front of an excitable & optimistic home crowd is on the cards

My mrs reckons us tigers supporters have mental problems, putting ourselves through it year after year

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

13 days after the season started we finally get a run. Fire up tigers.

I'll accept any win. I'd rather a gal gadot but I'll cop a patty and Selma.

I'd like to argue but ...

 

[WA Tiger]

This is crazy anticipation isn’t it!!! How can you predict a score? ..ok win by 25

 

[Tiger05]

I'm okay with the first half but some more points would be good. If we score more than that next half that'll be good enough.

 

[WA Tiger]

We’re currently coming second on the nrl ladder

 

[Tigerm]

Pretty good for our first half of the season with the first team.
I think KPP is going to be a great buy.
The halves are going gang busters.
Api, never knock a champion.

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

I feel like we should be further ahead even though we've played very well.

Looks like offloads and second phase play will be the cornerstone of our game plan this year.

Good to see Luai addressing the defence at half time.

 

[Pezz70]

Lualilii shouldnt be in first grade, has three hands and can’t defend. We need to ice this game nth qld are no chance of making the 8

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

It's hard to get a read on that game. At times in attack we were great but at others we looked pedestrian.

The cowboys were woeful.

The defence looks pretty passive except for the 1st set. It almost looks like we're playing a zone defence.

Anyway a win is a win. I'm happy with that.

Souths will a much better barometer next week.

 

[Tiger05]

It was a pretty darn good win.

Luai, Samuela, Turuva and Skelton all performed exceptionally well. Doueihi and Api were great. Our middle forwards dominated without any real stand outs but geez I like Terrell May as a player. Twal played really good footy as well. I also think KPP is going to be a really good signing for us. We have two edge backrowers who are threats and their defense looks pretty good as well.

Losing Taylan was and will be a big blow. Out outside backs are really good with some depth but we look to have two starters in To'a and May out and that weakens the team a fair bit.

 

[Tigerm]

Our first game of the year in anger, I thought we did alright.
Bugger for Taylan, I hope he's good for next week?
But we don't lose much, when you can have Skelton on the team.
Wasn't Bula's greatest game IMO, I hope it was just a blip.
I think the halves are going to be special for us.

But always good to beat a boggie side from previous years.

Will be interested in Bejni's assessment.

 

[Tigerm]

Both worthy of special mention.

 

[Tigerm]

Anther solid display.

 

[macnaz]

Its pretty easy to pick our top 3 ,
Who were our worst 3 ?
-3 LL was aids ,

 

[Tigerm]

Good point.

 

[Tigerm]

Good point.

 

[WA Tiger]

There was a lot of dropped balls. Just hang on to the fkn thing!! I won’t mention names Twal and LukeL

 

[WA Tiger]

Its pretty easy to pick our top 3 ,
Who were our worst 3 ?
-3 LL was aids ,

He could contribute 20 points to an opposition team. On his own!

 

[glockers]

Probably won't happen, but Herbert into the centres and Turuva and Skelton on the wings next week would be my pick.
