turning point in the match undoubtedbly was in the 48th minute. Knights led 22-16, put a bomb up, whoever the Tigers winger was got in a mix up with hodgson, took the ball infront of hodgson after hodgson touched it, hence shouldve been a penalty to the Knights for offside. Knights wouldve either taken a penalty goal from 20m infront, or gone for a tap, which wouldve put the Tigers under a lot of pressure, since the Knights came out firing in the 2nd half.
Instead, on the same set of 6, Benji Marshall gets a 40/20, deep into our territory. Tigers score to level it at 22-all, and from there on in, they built a lot of momentum which eventually wore us down in the end.
Otherwise, a great game, especially with Buderus, Cross, Hilder and Gidley out. Without Hilder there (who was very good against the Titans when Buderus was out), we were easily exploited up the middle of the ruck. Not only to mention Adam MacDougall's side of the field. Fair enough, he set up a great try for Chris Bailey, but that was negated by the 4 he let in his side of the field. Opposition sides have noted this: When Doogs plays, they always run plays down his side of the field, as his defense leaves a lot to be desired for.
