He’s right though. Every team plays to its strengths, and other teams know what they are. Being unpredictable would mean not playing to your strengths so much. Could also mean having weapons across the park. Hard to defend against, and even harder to get under salary cap restrictions.

Yeah but nobody does the flying wedge anymore or a chip kick on the 3rd tackle or a kicking duel. If you're not doing those things you're predictable.

Im not comparing the two teams. Parra have been much more successful than the Tigers clearly. I'm responding to you denigrating the Tigers efforts to rebuild. Seems that you think we should have kept Sheens, Pascoe & Hagipantellis.

I mean he is no Mark ONeill but Richo was successful at Sharks, Penrith, Souffs, all the while keeping his clothes on......but somehow we shouldnt have signed him as CEO because he accepted the offer? You are right, should have stayed with Pascoe...safer.
Take this shit to the Tigers forum you putrid f**king spud you are a punish.

Whilst I agree, I think we are predictable in A and as such opposition know how to beat up on us. Very true, D is our failing or more to the point consistency in D.

The most predictable thing about our attack is that we don't build enough pressure and try to score on every play inside the opposition 20 rather than be patient and put pressure on their defence - thats what we did in our regular season wins over Penrith. Basic football and pressure limits how much defence we need to do and places the pressure back on them. We need to be consistent in our predictability....

I reckon our worse habits are trying to score on the 5th. And giving away cheap meters rather then handing the ball over 2 or 3 mtrs out and bashing them on the next set. It's so hard to work yourself our of your own 5mtrs.
I'd rather run it on the last then risking giving away a 7 tackle set, especially now that line drop outs are basicaly 50/50.

I don’t think so. The Broncos have more talent but less experience. They got a decent lead then shat themselves.

No. Penrith dominated them for majority of the game. They tired them out. Brisbane where running on empty that last 20mins. They had nothing left in the tank
Penrith ran over the top of them. Brisbane defense kept them in it and a Spencer Lenui penalty. Penrith should of been 20 nil at halftime.

I think Penrith just controlled the ball. Broncos relaxed and made a few errors and then struggled to get the ball back.

Well that’s just… did you even watch the game?

Yeah I quite like Tiger Guys contributions. Hes got an opinion not like some who just have anti opinions. Not in the least confrontational either even though he cops plenty. No name calling. Knows his stuff not just pretends too. Yep. Thumbs up Tiger Guy. 👍
Yes, a criticism on myself is I made it personal. I’m actually apologetic @Tiger5150 . Sorry mate.
I’m just sick of discussing another club, 1 club in fact when I’m desperate for Parra chat.
Apologies mate.
