Hardly had any time but Crokers had a few nice moments here

He should be getting more gametime than Hetherington at the very least.

 

[perverse]

lol... Tyson what the f**k are you doing mate. What a wild card tonight.

 

[Tom155]

lol wtf ref, how did you miss that?

Gambles brains match the haircut

 

[perverse]

It's weird to say about a game where we scored 7 tries to 3... but I suppose we did enough without being amazing.

 

[PhilGould]

Klemmer waiting until the 79th minute in a double digit loss to get his grumpy face on and try to put a shot on. Never change.

 

[Knight Tales]

Liking the body language of disappointment despite victory. They know they were very average tonight.

 

[Jono078]

Lot of the players don't seem happy after that game.

Important thing is we are now 1 point out of the top 8. Next week we play the Melbourne Storm and if we win that you can say our season might have some hope. By hope I mean playing 1 game in the finals.

They drive me to drink

 

[Zoidberg]

Marzhew stealing Best’s play of not getting the ball down.
Dive to the line!!!!

DIVE. TO. THE. LINE. GREG!!!!!!

$380. So close.

Why does Croker keep getting such low minutes each week? He's our best middle forward along with Thompson

It's maddening

Gotta give Simple Jack Hetherington plenty of time of the field to do dumb shit

I do like this young fullback for the Tigers. Very raw, but he's got some ability. Probably needs to get out of Tigertown to have a real career I think.

Yep very raw, ex junior basketball player who I’m pretty sure only started playing rugby league when he was like 14 or 15. He’s the type of kid our junior scouts would have told to take a hike

I try to get around the idea of Hethrington and he’s got some good attributes namely his foot speed and the way he runs onto the ball but none of that can outweigh his ill discipline and utter stupidity.

 

[Loose Cannon]

I don’t blame Hetherington for being mad. This is the year his age caught up to his IQ.

 

[mozza91]

Ugly win some good and some bad. And a shitload to improve on.

Ponga was superb. Playing probably the most consistent football of his career. Also that 2nd try of his should have been allowed but then again the Tigers one at the start should have been a try as well.

Our attack has improved a lot but our stupidity remains the same. Herthrington shouldn’t see any more FG this season after that shit. Offers nothing and is a f**king moron.

Will take the 2 points though, although we need to be about 10 times better to compete against Melbourne.

100% on the stupidity part, just some real lack of attention to detail. Elliott is starting to show good signs, tonight he received the ball 24 times and hit the ball up 14 times and passed it 10 times which is about the right ratio you want from your middle forward.

 

[Woody90]

My God I hate Hetherington. So much.

I didn’t think I could hate a player as much as Crossland but at the very least he tries hard and offers support.

Who the f**k slaps someone? What a cat.

 

[mozza91]

Gamble is so rocks or diamonds but I can’t dislike him because even after mistakes he keeps trying
things.

Plus he was alot more to his skill set than I saw at the Broncos, had some really nice touches amongst the dumb stuff tonight.
