[I Bleed Maroon]

Tigers by 8, just because the Titans travel like shit

 

[Valheru]

Tigers are money here. I think they will have a fairly bright start to the season

 

[Someone2]

Foran looked good the other day and will carve up

 

[Vic Mackey]

Tigers by 8, just because the Titans travel like shit

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

So they just hate their own supporters then, noted

 

[MKCS]

Should be an interesting game, both clubs have recruited well. I'll give it to the Tigers 1-12 but should be a good one to watch as a neutral.

 

[This Year?]

This game will take Holbrook off the chopping block and invigorate Fifita for one of the 4 games a season he bothers turning up for.
Tigers will Tiger this for sure.

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

battle of the heavyweight midgets

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Titans looked very different with verrills and foran steering the ship. Tits by 8

 

[JamesRustle]

Sheens 2nd coming at the Tigers to get off to a dissappointing start. Titans 34-28.

 

[Someone2]

Titans by 12

 

[Vic Mackey]

Sheens 2nd coming at the Tigers to get off to a dissappointing start. Titans 34-28.

Scoreline sounds about right, expect a high scoring one here. 2 sides with some new combos hoping for a good start to the year. Id like to think our middles have a bit of an advantage and Api can get us home from that. Wests by 8

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Was hoping we would see some vintage sheenius and see klemmar moved to lock, a skinny 2nd rower like bateman moved to prop and brooks moved to hooker

 

[Perth Tiger]

Well it should be a much better game than the corresponding game last year which has to rank as one of the worst games of all time

 

[Black Panther]

Geez, 5 ex Panthers in the Tigers team.. Titans by 8.

 

[Grapple]

Tigers at their spirtual home will be hard to beat on a Sunday.
Whos' playing for Wests this year?
Doesn't matter facts, Benji coaching & spiritual home, playing Titans.


Tigers by 4

 

[footy75]

Tigers

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Why is this game on at 6:15 considering there's no 2PM game?

 

[Fangs]

Used to be a good game to watch back in the day.

Benji for the Tigers and Prince for the Titans. Matt Rogers, Preston Campbell, Robbie Farah.

Dean Collis, Brett Delaney etc.

I hope this game brings back some of those memories.
