Match Discussion: Round 13 vs Raiders @ Bankwest Stadium

[The unknown]

Would've thought he would pump out a few reserve grade games 1st but Madge doesn't screw around, I think he will come off the bench just to ease back in

Welcome back Rowdy. If you can replicate your 2018 form Matterson/Lawrence is a heck of a 2nd row combo

First home game at Bankwest Stadium, you lot should get the money. Good luck

Tigers by 10

If he fires as he has in the past we have a great set of edge backrowers. Chee-Kam can come on as well and he has a great running game.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Watching the interviews with the players/coach they seem to have singled this game out as a must win. In the past that’s never worked well for us, interesting to see how they handle it under a new coach

Nofoaluma staying on his wing and not rushing up and in with his bad defensive reads is all I want to see from him tonight.

I'd like to see that plus great hit-ups plus finishing ability. You need all of that to be a top class winger.

 

[Vic Mackey]

So apparently Thompson fullback and Mbye center

Looks like Madge already clearing the way for DWZ

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

We should win this tonight with all the players they have out. Unfortunately the weather hasn't helped and I can see being a low scoring arm wrestle.

Tiger 12 - 10.

My thoughts exactly, then Thompson back to the wing so tonight it's Nofoaluma v Fonua for a wing spot going forward. Both have 'ability' but unfortunately plenty of mistakes for 1st grade wingers.

I just hope getting DWZ doesn't lead to Thompson taking up an opportunity elsewhere....all things considered he's more valuable than either of the other two

Also I'm not really into hoodoos but Marshall has only lost like 1 game out of 15 attempts v the Raiders

That's damn impressive haha

And with Farah and Benji playing together we have won all 11 times apparently

He wasn’t too bad last week but they didn’t really target him

 

[Pezz70]

How was that first try a try, the inside player was in front of Croker who threw the ball forward on the inside which was kicked by whitehead who was in front of Croker when the ball left his hands and the kicked the ball. While they can’t rule on a forward pass they can rule on the offside player. Absolutely ridiculous

Useless, way off the pace, won’t finish in the top 10. Really really disappointing first half. There’s a few blokes in that Tigers backline that just aren’t playing to NRL standard. Marsters, Mbye, Fonua, Nofoaluma really aren’t up to it and Thompson has been poor tonight. Nofoaluma don’t know which way to run

Different coach, same old mentally piss weak side

 

[Front-Rower]

Different coach, same old mentally piss weak side

Same old key players...

 

[Das Hassler]

They just look like a side that has had one week too many off

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

Only the tigers could concede tries like those first 2. And just for old times sake lets concede another right on half time. This has been a really poor performance. We're just getting physically dominated. I'm sick of watching our small outside backs running one out off their own line, often sideways, and getting smashed. Surely the forwards can show some urgency and get back and take a hit up before tackle 4

 

[Old Time Tiger]

Terrible finishing of each set.

What team does Brooks 'own' again?
