As many have said, this is the best side we have fielded (on paper) for a long time.

If we are going anywhere, this is a game we should expect to win.

Us by 12, with Luai MoM.

Red For Go Tigers!

Are we going to stand up and fight for once in our miserable lives or fall down onto our knees?

Answer the question boys, no shut up, answer the question on the park!

RUOK TSP or are you insanely bored?

 

[Nutz]

We are screwed!

Eels newby winger Jordan Samrani worries me. The kid's got talent and is a great cash cow.

Can’t see too much joy in their side at all tbh.

They are going to have to pull off a “whole of side” effort to beat us.

They have a couple of imminent danger players, whereas we have strike all over the park.

I can’t emphasise enough the advantage of having Api coming back fresh and ready. They won’t be able to handle him.

And that’s before they meet our halves and backs.

Can’t see too much joy in their side at all tbh.

Yep, definitely screwed!

 

[Nutz]

I just couldn’t do it.

 

[Tigerm]

We’re in trouble, all the Fox clowns have tipped us.

 

[Ned Kelly]

I hate to say it but I think we are gonners

 

[Tigerm]

Hopefully the Bula doubters will keep quiet for a while.

 

[Ned Kelly]

With how things are going I'm going to call it early for the opposition every game.
Absolutely love I don't know what I'm talking about.

 

[Tigerm]

Clunky first half, by both teams, but as they say, look at the scoreboard.
May already showing he might be our best buy.

 

[Das Hassler]

That was OK...the first hit out for the spine so it wasn't too surprising it was a bit all over the place. I think the payoff for not kicking the early 2 will come as Parra didn't get a break from tackling in.that heat. Douehi is validating himself IMO

 

[Das Hassler]

I hope Benji and the senior guys give Starford T a kick up the arse for that stupid penalty after working so hard to get downfield with that early kick...that there is the difference between a winning and also ran attitude

Dire half of footy, but May was immense. Probably already our greatest ever prop. Such a great signing.
