No lower grades this weekend.​

 

[Ned Kelly]

So excited. James Tamou back in. Awesome! Leads by example with crushing tackles, mega yards in hard runs, big minutes. A real game changer.
Mbye at fullback a real danger every time he gets the ball. The centres pairing is equaled by none. Best team fielded this weekend.
(just trying to make up for my negativity of late)

 

[cerberus]

dogs paying $2.70

 

[Ron's_Mate]

On the poll we have 6 tipping the Dogs & one tipping the Tigers. I tipped the Dogs 13+. From what I've seen, the Dogs aren't that bad & they do play with effort, like the Warriors, and unlike our bludgers.

 

[benched tiger]

Well last week was embarrassing, and just when you think this club has hit rock bottom, they go and take it to another lower level ,the only expectations I have of this lot is that they know how to lose a game from any situation .

 

[Fordy20]

Cini named on the bench, with MCK in the centres and Mbye at fullback. Are we going to see a last minute surprise switcharoo between these three?

 

[stryker]

If Madge was trying to save his job you wouldn’t know it with this side.
Same lazy pieces of garbage who suffered one of the seasons most embarrassing losses last weekend.
Come on Michael, these blokes are losers. Fight for your reputation.

 

[benched tiger]

Yes it’s insane that Madge remains loyal too and keeps his faith in these players that continually let him down.

 

[Vozzy]

It's weird how he is loyal to the guys he doesn't want for next season. It's either he has been told not to over expose the young guys to much until next season. I'm more excited about the bench and the reserves because the more they train and play the more they must be part of next year's plans.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

f**k we look really bad without Laurie.

Nothing to play for, so we will probably flog them with this makeshift side.

Better chance of that if Madge misses the taxi to the game. The team has always improved in those second halves when he’s just told them to piss off and walked out in disgust.

This side is beyond dysfunctional. Everything is chaotic, I’m confident we can jag the win.

Don’t forget our Mad Monday started in March!

 

[Tigers1986]

Mbye at fullback - wow, marbles for brains, especially with Cini in the mix.

Dogs play with a lot of hunger and grit, more than we do. I reckon they take us 30-20.

 

[Tigerm]

We got this, us by 20+ with Brooks MoM

 

[Speedy Gonzales]

Dogs are specials

$2.60 looks juicy

as if our bunch of spastics are favourites

 

[Speedy Gonzales]

We got this, us by 20+ with Brooks MoM

You’re a brave man…I reckon dogs will do us comfortably and we will cement ourselves as the worst NRL team in 2021

 

[Tigerm]

You’re a brave man…I reckon dogs will do us comfortably and we will cement ourselves as the worst NRL team in 2021

We'll find out shortly who is right?

 

[Ned Kelly]

Cini named on the bench, with MCK in the centres and Mbye at fullback. Are we going to see a last minute surprise switcharoo between these three?

I would like to see Cini get plenty of game time.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

I would like to see Cini get plenty of game time.

So would I Ned, in the centres as well just to see how he goes in the middle, he's played wing & full back in reserves so to see if he's got any running game by getting early ball would be good.

 

[Tiger05]

I would like to see Cini get plenty of game time.

Yep. He deserves another chance. I'd like to see him at fullback and Mbye to the bench.

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

The payout for the last 2 years of his contract is probably a lot more appealing than another 2 years of coaching this lot

 

[benched tiger]

These team selections are mind numbing, when you persist with selections that have continually failed in the past you have to question the mentality behind it, I guess it’s like someone that plays darts, if you throw enough darts ,even the worst darts player will hit a bulls eye sooner or later.
