payten

great to have him match fit and able to get boof back to the second row.

i think the dragons and roosters are going to find the tigers a much tougher opponent over the next 2 weeks if we can keep skando,boof and payten all on the field without injury.

i think we will get a real good guide of where we stand over the next 2 weeks,and will be good to see if we really are one of the top defensive teams in the comp and a chance for a top 4 spot or just a solid top 8 team.

Agreed,but don`t underestimate the value young Bryce Gibbs is off the bench either!!!

Payton has been a great buy.He was awesome yesterday and
has been all year.

What about that flick pass for rhino's try........


Not bad work if you ask me......

 

[CULLUS.ONLINE]

All the forwards are really stepping up!

Does anyone remember the begining of the season when the only topic of convo was how we had no forwards?????

 

[SouthernTiger]

totally agree cullus ... but the best thing about yesterday was how we played as a team and the backs got some ball with room to move

cheers

[tigerdan]

the best was seeing skondo do a big hit up followed by payten who was followed by boof, they got us to the 40m from the goal line on the 3rd, great to see the go forward

Payten seems to play like a halfback whos 30kg's overweight with some of the little moves he does somtimes :lol:

Our forwards are going great,I think Buckets is heading down the same road as Graham.Boof in the 12 Benny in 11 with Satts at lock,Gibbs,Heigho,Mears and Fulton/Harrison on the bench and there is no room left.
That rotation has size and speed,I think if we are serious then that is the way to go.This is my opinion any way.

I tend to agree with you. But, Buckets offers the team leadership and experience. Im not sure what sheens will do. How long can he hold out the young guns though ?

 

[tiger78]

Is Mark contracted for next year?

sheens will hold out the young guns until they can consistently outplay buckets and co.
buckets has done it consistently for 10 years,and so far i am yet to see these young players out perform buckets on a consistent basis.

the great thing is that you now have to earn your place in a tigers team over a period of time that is more than 1 week.

LOL don't say that!

That description makes me think of corey pearson!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'd prefer to say that Payton plays like an unusually skilled prop ;-)
