I'm really liking what I'm seeing from the Warriors..

Yeah I know it's against the Tigers, and yeah I know it's just a trial, and it ain't the top Warriors squad turning out.... but the attack looks pretty energetic & keeping the opposition to zero is always good.

Whoever started calling Charlie Staines the 'Forbes Ferrari' should be shot. Forbes Fiat Punto is more fitting.

May the footy gods help the Tigers, because no one else will. If they deny the Phins the spoon this year, it would be some sort of "achievement".

That'd be Freddy Lussick - good to see him playing well, as that'll keep Wayde Egan on his toes (competition for places is great to have)

Another thing that's impressing me is the discipline from the team.

Even though it's a trial (and mistakes are a given) I'm seeing less silly errors & lapses of judgement than last year already.

They are easy on the eye in attack

Tigers get a lucky call, good position, here's their chance...

...and they drop the ball right away.

Sheens is gonna age a decade this year.

1st half of a trial game playing mostly their NSW Cup side. Probably a bit early to make a judgement.
Personally, I'm looking forward to reading a bunch of Souths supporters writing our team off if we struggle tomorrow with the gun halves combination of Dion Teaupa and Jarrett Subloo

Yep, and THAT is how you make the opposition pay for a mistake (that clanger of a dropped ball on Tigers attack).

Great stuff.

Scrub that last post - Sheens will age TWO decades this year, if he doesn't have a coronary first.

One thing I hate......people making a judgement on a teams year because of a trial. I have a mate teasing me about the Tigers already....lol.

Settle people!
