Can't agree with comments rearding the Tigers being little chance this week.

This should be a fairly even contest. We've got plenty of points in us (for a change), but our defence in the past few weeks has been inconsistent, with several players guilty of laziness around the ruck that even the Rabbitohs were able to make the most of. Even without Farah, the Tigers are one team who can easily expose said laziness.

Whatuira was the centre though i think
Lawrence has only been a full time centre this year

plus broncos got us on monday night where we have been hammered 3 times already

I'm just saying he might have a busy night on his hands if they choose to employ this tactic again. And I have heard Lawrence isn't the best defender....brilliant in attack though.

How on earth are Hodges, Thaiday and Carroll playing? They all got injured last week.

I think it'll be closer than people think.

I find it hard to watch the delayed games on nine now. 9.30 is to late to start, and with all the ads your up till midnight watching the game. Not to mention ads totally kill the feel of the game.

Thaiday just picked up a little knock to the head, Carroll had his usual knee injury. Hodges is the only one in doubt

IMO Tigers will struggle if Farrah doesn't play.

this could be a close match if the tigers can stay with the broncs as the broncos start to slack off alot in the middle of the second half. if the broncos start good we should win

Hodges still in doubt apparently, though Marsh and Hunt are now said to be a good chance of playing.

I tipped the Broncos - It won't be an *ss kicking though,it'll be by a few points.

Ive not been confident, hard to with the patchy form weve shown despite winning last 2...anything can happen, wouldnt be surprised at either result, though a 24-0 result to the tiges would surprise.

Nice comeback from the Tigers but not quite enough, they will hit there straps when Marshall and Farah come back into the side. I think they are a certainty for the top 8.

it's a shame the Tiger's can't play with that second half enthusiasm all the time, if they did, we could be a force. it was a good test and ended up being a good game, no holdsbar football.

that was one of the best games ive seen this season. the tempo especially in the 2nd half was very quick, both teams throwing the ball around and scoring some great tries
