Round 20 v Tigers: Game Day Thread

Some of you guys are over reacting. We tend to be sloppy after the bye and the Tigers played out of their skin, completing 30 from 35.

Upsets happen all the time in footy. This was set to be a boilover the whole game, but we somehow held on.

Spine combo is still gelling. We aren't clicking yet but are just a win off top 4 pace.

Yeah I thought we were rusty. Lots of passes didn't stick at crucial times. The Tigers put up a great fight. I don't mind winning ugly. Good teams do that all the time.

30,000 out there today. Impressive.

I thought that after we scored very early in the game they thought it was going to be a walk in the park. But, silly errors, indirect passes, allowing the Tigers to offload and the Tedesco factor kept them in the game for the full 80 minutes. I'd rate it a 6.5 on our ability meter.

I think he uses connector pens.

They were the shit. I used to make pistols with them and fantasise about shooting my brothers.

They'd probably chuck me in therapy if I was a kid these days. I wonder if that would prevent the murders....?

I'm not sure if we have a win vs Broncos in us, but if we can snag one, we'll hop over Manly on the table. They play Storm.

They were dribbling shit all week about finals footy, we won and probably only need two more wins but finals shouldn't be mentioned in the media until we are 100% there.

We talked it up in 2014 as well, i remember how those last two games turned out.
We're the ones talking down the finals. It's the media beating it up, not the players.

Who talked it up in 2014? Everyone always talks it down, all the time. At every club. They can't just refuse to talk to the media or say no comment. It would be the same as showing fear.
