While letting in 4 unaswered tries is ridiculous...we are shot to pieces by 3 injuries.

Boys are digging deep to hold on which Madge should be proud of

Nothing to be proud of mate, the left hand side defence went to shit when the Jennings went off and Mbye shifted to the wing and Chee-Kam to centre. Chee-Kam found out badly. I am very disappointed with Tigers tonight, red hot first half and absolutely shit house in the second half. Both halves went missing and left side defence non existent. Really need to
Put the foot on the throat when they are on top. Went from playing really good footy to a plan, to an improvisational rabble. It just doesn’t work at this level

2 steps forward then 1 step back, but we got the 2 points so hopefully learn the lesson and move on

hopefully the injuries aren’t too bad

A win is a win. Very hard win especially that second half with the guys hurt.
I take away the interception, Feldt, reaching over Mybe (we need height) and the Marsters try which was a consolation try (IMO) and I’m happy, the defence was still pretty good.

JA was excellent. JR went missing.

Well the second half sucked, and whilst we didn't have much ball, field position, and the ref was just shithouse, I think it came down to our halves.

How many times did Brooks get tackled on the fifth? It's inexcusable because Reynolds has a non-existent kicking game outside of grubbers into the in-goal. It was good that Brooks was always attacking, but he needs to know better.

Reynolds was pretty bloody average. That kick on the second tackle, FMD...

At least they know there is a lot to work on, where as if we won 50-4 they wouldn't.

Against most other teams we lose that game. We can be thankful the cowboys didn't turn up in the first half. Granted we lost a couple in the first half to injury but where did the intensity go?

If we continue to concede that many repeat sets, field position, and possession we will get hammered by most teams all season long.

A win is a win, possession against us was +60% so we did well in defence.

I think Madge will be happy but nowhere satisfied.

It's got me f**ked how we switch off so easily.

Grant had a good game again. I thought McIntyre had a good debut as well.

How anyone could say Josh Reynolds went missing is having a laugh. We had no bloody ball in the second half
He went missing, missing tackles and just plain missing!

Go have a look at the stats. They had a little more ball than us, not much. We were impotent in the second half. It appeared they had more because they were dominating us massively. Very very poor second half.

When you have a look at the stats compare Reynolds and Brooks. Reynolds went missing 100%

Frustrating result but Cowboys had all the ball and with a 1 man bench they were always going to make a comeback.

Attack was shithouse in the 2nd half but thought the defence was OK. Only one of their tries through a line break and most others exploiting the lack of a specialist winger.
