'11 | R3 | Sat | Tigers 34-24 Raiders | Campbelltown

[Pete Cash]

Yeah, that is a given. I am hoping our guys can actually stop the roll on from the Tigers to limit Marshalls ability to turn us inside out. They should be playing with a bit more pride this week after being embarrassed by the Broncos.

 

[raiders fan forever]

I just want to see improvement we were inept against the broncos

 

[Vic Mackey]

A bit concerned about the size of out bench. Whilst our starting pack is actually quiet huge (probably bigger then the raiders) our bench forwards aren't. Woods is a fairly standard sized prop and whilst the shirnack brothers are very aggresive (especially Jason) they certainly are no giants.

Worried about this one, Canberra have a great pack and we have some key forwards out. Canberra's backline looks a lot weaker without Dugan and Campo though, so we certainly have them covered in that department. If our forwards don't get steamrolled we should go alright, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are.

 

[Raidersrawesome]

Canberra has to turn up , if we play anything like last week we will get whipped. The Tigers havent been super impressive either so this game could go either way.
and we definately need Dugan as well.

 

[_Johnsy]

Raiders will lose in a tight one.

 

[natheel]

hard on to pick tbh. canberra will look to really bounce back but on the other hand Tigers home advantage lends them the advantage.

Tigers by 8

Your club is paying Carl Webb money. Therefor you lose any argument on geniusation

Don't forget Chris Walker while you're at it :lol:

 

[MacDougall]

Tigers aren't really that strong at Campbelltown. It's generally their weakest home ground and a lot of the Canberra fans will make the trek. Canberra vs. Tigers at Campbelltown in the past has always had a huge sea of green in the stands.

I think Canberra will win. Obviously happy to be proven wrong but the head says Canberra are due against the Tigers. The Tigers off the back of a sloppy, unconvincing win. Canberra off the back of a poor performance at home. Tigers 3 forwards down against one of the best forward packs going round.

Really it'll be a miracle if the Tigers win. But the Tigers pull of a miracle every second round it seems so eh. Edit: I mean that I only see the Tigers winning off the back of a miracle. Obviously pre game doesn't suggest it would take that, that's just how I see it.

Canberra 24 - Tigers 22 in a classic with both teams playing amazing and completing at 80%. Marshall to miss the conversion from halfway to the sideline after the siren.

This sounds very specific. Is that you Ryan?

 

[mepelthwack]

Tigers won't have to worry about Campese walking 5 meters forward off the mark to play the ball this time but having said that I still think this could go either way.

 

[skeepe]

Dugan's looking a likely starter, Croker in doubt.

Faaaaark. What's wrong with Croke-dawg?

Still mentally scarred from the final last year.

 

[Raidersrawesome]

Still mentally scarred from the final last year.

Yep thats it :roll:

It does look like he will more than likely play

 

[raiders fan forever]

imagine if the same scenario happened this game surely Croker would have to nail it this time

 

[to_ddeath]

If you get close enough...emphasis on the word "IF".


T.

 

[skeepe]

Still mentally scarred from the final last year.

The only reason he was put in that position in the first place is the sheer incompetence of Jarred Maxwell to incorrectly hand the Tigers two points on a platter.

Maxwell's incorrect call directly handed the Tigers a win they did not deserve, so you can only imagine my delight at what transpired in their game against the Dragons. Karma is a bitch.
