The Teddy cold drop was the difference in the end

Good on the Tigers. Defended great and competed all day. Deserve the 2 points.

Good to see Fox letting Klingons interview the players

Hello?

Because they don't stop the clock for conversions. Only when the ref believes the kicker is taking the piss or the ball keeps falling off the tee due to strong winds.

Tui LOLohea and the Tigers outplay Tedesco and Grandpa Gronk

Cronk was OK, while Tedesco played the best game for the Tigers I've seen him play. It's only round 1 though.

Roosters need a new winger. Thankfully there’s plenty of room left in the salary cap.

That’s f**king stupid in the last five

 

[Vic Mackey]

Roosters by 50+ Teddy 3 tries by half time.

Won't happen. He is going to run riot over the Tigers paper thin defence.

Yeah nah

Fool

Tedesco to turn face halfway through the game and reveal a tigers jersey underneath

Well played

 

[stryker]

Always good to beat those cheating scum.
Especially glad to see that over rated horse faced moron play so poorly. Tiges will go well without him spoiling plays and sharon woods slowing momentum down.

Ugly as f**k win, but early in the season wins are all that matters. Come September nobody gives a shit who won in round 1. Just get them 2 points.

For any top 8 favourite,these dropped 2 comp points, will be the difference at years end. Just like the NFL,NRL teams are approaching each comp game as if it is a GF. If you don't,you are not serious enough.

 

[Hutty1986]

Hello?

G'day.

 

[wibble]

Well, Roosters struggled a bit with the ball, as you'd expect with major changes to the team, but a falcon try is still a pretty unlucky way to lose. Crook was pretty good, Ferguson had his best game in years. A bit worried about the Roosters forwards.

Tigers also looked clunky with the ball, for similar reasons (round 1, new combos), but that was a fantastic display of heart and organisation in defence, compared to their recent offerings. Early days, but plenty to be hopeful of for Tigers fans.

Spot on ay

lol too quick for me.

Our forward pack is f**king trash, led by the slowest hooker in the game Friend.

Tigers played well, although it’s not like we tested them.

f**king woeful game really.

Worst part though had to be that commentary team. I don’t know who that main caller is but I’m assuming the actual caller got sick and they just grabbed the least pissed bloke at the Horse and Jockey on parramatta road
