Problem with Farah is they don't allow him to get out of dummy half anymore. There was one occasion about 30 minutes into that half when Ennis wasn't square by an absolute mile, still got involved in the tackle and the refs still didn't blow a penalty. As he said, they're just slowing the ruck down, just like the Storm last week.

Lui surely has to be subbed, absolute liability in defence and doing nothing with the ball. Ellis has been awesome, Hodgson will feel him tomorrow, as will Pritchard. Overall, Tigers have defended fairly well, a few arm grabs but seem a bit more committed tonight. Of course, that may have something to do with the Bulldogs being so terrible.

KG has definitely put his hand up tonight. I maintain as an impact prop off the bench, you could do a hell of a lot worse than him in Origin.

Those last 5 minutes are the worst 5 minutes of Rugby League I have seen in my life.

Keith Galloway has been awesome. Ennis is having such a rough time handling him. Heighington has been ok. Other than those two, the Tigers (and in particular Robert Lui) have been absolutely crap.

Might be being a bit unfair to a few players who have barely touched the ball.

Ellis has been his normal self

You'd be better to hook Lui and leave a gap in the defensive line if necessary. People are more likely to trip over a divot in the ground than be tackled by Lui

Is McKinnon the slowest fullback moving across the turf in FG history? Deadset running in quicksand, wearing lead boots while carrying an elephant.

Kicking games have been a big difference tonight as well, Lui doing his usually catching practice for the back three whereas KK & Hodkinson finding turf regularly.

Hasn't been the same since his injuries at the Warriors. It was sad seeing his speed go.

Agreed.


I reckon Miller has looked good tonight

We're still in this. Nothing gone our way so far
Huh?

Apart from where he ran onto a ball and made about 20 metres, he's done next to nothing and been as big a liability as Lui in defence, missed at least 5 tackles.

f**k LUI IS SHIT
