Match Discussion: Round 5 vs Raiders @ Campbelltown Stadium

[Das Hassler]

I hope this is the last time we ever see Packer anywhere near the first grade side

 

[Pezz70]

Back three have been much improved. With the addition of Talau. Ref gets us again with Chee Kam pass to Brooks

 

[Pezz70]

I’m really disappointed with the Tigers tonight, improved performance but still not good enough. Time to look for a new half. I’ve been Brooks biggest supporter over the years but he just doesn’t offer enough. He had a good chance tonight with a team that were playing well to make something happen and he was really quiet. Reynolds took the reigns and was good but Brooks can’t be a passenger anymore.

Twal 65 tackles!!!!

Douehi 281 odd metres big improvement

Well he only has 2 years left on his contract so its possible

May happen, just I thought he showed a lot of mongrel that we have been missing.

 

[Das Hassler]

Next week i'd like to see Benji with Reynolds. ..i'm about over Brooks.

 

[Front-Rower]

We need a controlling halfback. It’s so bloody obvious.

Talau I thought was good. Much better than what I had seen in Canterbury Cup from him.

Grant is young and goes good but he did get in Brooks’ way a couple of times.

Brooks’ needs to grow a set and bark some order if he is going to be there

Reynolds was great

 

[Tigerm]

Shit result for us, but a glimpse of a good sign for us.

Yeah but the nett result of his participation is just not good enough for a senior forward.

I was going to ask what Twal’s tackle count was. What an effort.

What glimpse?

Brooks needs to watch some Mitch Moses videos

I agree, Madge was quick to drop Marshall, let’s see if he can do the same with Brooks.

 

[simmo1]

Much improved effort but not the class to finish them off.

Agree with the Brooks sentiment above. This guy has been in grade for, what, 7 seasons? He should be guiding the team home in games like this. The new rules should be right up his alley, but instead he is dropping simple passes on 1st tackle.

 

[The unknown]

Why is it when we get our defence right, our attack looks incompetent (tonight)...but when we get our attack right, our defense looks shithouse?

 

[benched tiger]

Okay errors aside but we had no chance with that imbecile with the whistle gifting Canberra possession to set up the win.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Effort and intensity was there. We played the premership favourites who were smarting after last week and got every f*#king call their way

If we play like that next week I’m confident we’ll beat the cowboys and beat them well

He blew the pea out of that thing, Packers discipline didn’t help our cause though

 

[macnaz]

Gutsy heroic effort ... but they were on a hiding to nothing with a pointless boring game plan, 1 out rubbish of relentlessly running into their forward pack getting smashed and then expected to defend against a side that wasnt challenged or tired ... Raiders didnt even need to move in defence !!

 

[BuffaloRules]

Benji will be back next week and all will be fine..

Am I doing this optimism thing right?
