Going to be a cracker.

Eels are better all over, but IMO Tigers are better in the key position being the halves and hooker.

I think Eels have been more impressive out of each teams recent winning streaks.

Eels 28-18 Tigers.

Game of the round, im tipping the Eels in a close on... Hayne is just too good right now, but it wouldnt not at all surprise me if the Tigers won. Its that close

 

[sando88]

going to be a nailbiter for both teams fans

does everyone think the loser will have no chance making the 8? hope not

 

[Bodsy]

Should be a great game, hopefully I can get there.

 

[Tigers_are_Pro]

Tigers can afford to lose it more than the Eels.

The Eels need to win their next to game as they have the Dragons at Kograh as their final match, so it's unlikely they'll win that if they need to, in the case being they lose an earlier match.

The Tigers however, need to win 1 from 3 and can drop this with the chance of beating the Dogs or Titans. Neither are unbeatable and the Tigers should've beaten the Bulldogs earlier in the year.

Imo, I'm tipping the Tigers in a close one say 26-22, Robbie Farah will stamp his presence on the game and his class will shine through.

 

[DragonPunk]

Im saying Tigers by a Benji field goal.

God I hope this game lives up to the hype. If it does it will be a cracker! How good has the footy been lately?

Huge game for us, but Hayne won't be the key. That honour will go to Fui Fui Moi Moi IMO...he has a history of almost singlehandedly dismantling the Tigers alongside Mateo, who should hopefully play. Hayne and Burt running off Fui and possibly Mateo could be the difference as the Tigers don't cope with offloads well.

100% agree

Tiges gave away a lot of penalties today , so they don't cope with the refs as well.
If they invite Eels upfield enough times , Eels offloads and Robson/Mortimer close to line kicking will get us home.

Keith Galloway vs Moi Moi will be an outstanding battle.

I hope Mateo doesn't play, but methinks he'll be quite rusty. It'll also be hard for the Eels to drop someone as so many are in tip top form.

The game will be won in the ruck, the team who wins that will likely go on to win the game.

I think the backlines are pretty evenly matched, the forwards are fairly evenly matched, so long as Fui Fui doesn't go destroyer and the Tigers beat out the eels in the halves.

Will be hyped to no end.

 

[sando88]

would be very interested to see what the betting odds will be. i assume parra will be favourites

 

[runatme]

looking forward to this game hopefully they will get a good crowd

 

[Chook Norris]

it maybe be the game of the round, but i think Eels will win without too much trouble.. Eels by 13

 

[☆ИITЯO ßOY✯]

Golden point draw, nil all cuz theyre both sh*t teams

 

[Timmah]

16 posts in the first forty minutes :crazy:

This'll be a long week :lol:

 

[TimmyB]

Nervous as hell about this match. The first 20 minutes are just so damn critical for us. I think there is a chance the eels will blow us off the park. However if we go with them and it's close toward the end, I think with Marshall, Farah, Moltzen and Tuiaki we have the edge in terms of game breakers.

That being said, I believe the Tigers will win in a close one or the Eels will blow us off the park. So basically, I've got no idea!!

 

[steven_tiger]

Got a real bad feeling about this game, and the rest of the season.

I think Parra will expose our defensive deficiencies and soundly beat us.

 

[sando88]

tigers are more then capable of winning one of their last 3 even though they are really tough oposition. if we lose against eels we just have to hope we bounce back strongly and not fall apart like the middle of the season.

i think the odds should be parra $1.75 tigers $2.30

i have a feeling there could be a highly contentious call which decide the game
