Skando will as he always has done,outplay Ryles who in selectors eyes is a better player!If anyone is claiming they have seen Skando clash with any of the so called big name props and not come out on top or at worst even,your obviously mixing your schooners with something you shouldn`t be!!!Skando is the greatest,and he`ll prove it again this Sunday!

He isn't the greatest, and if he dosn't out play Ryles then something would be wrong especially considering how match fit one is compared to the other :roll:

While on the topic,Bryce Gibbs is a young Skando clone and he too will have a big game clashing with the Saints young gun props Ashton Sims and Justin Poore!

Gibbs isn't a Skano clone if anything he is more like a Shrek clone, he at least can run and has already shown in the lower grades that he does have the aggression to put some fear in the oposition something Skando dosn't do!!!
Mate,your obviously watching something different to me.The Tigers can survive and IMO strengthen without Senter or O`Neill,but without Skando we`d really struggle!Was talking to a couple of Tiger players two weeks ago.They said Hodgo is a freak,but the player they most admire is SKANDO!!!

Where did I say they couldn't ???

But to say that Skando is infact the heart and sole of the club without Senter and Buckets being mentioned really is a joke!

On top of this a player they most admire is a hell of alot different to "Our most valuable player" which going by the comments you just posted when you talked to the players I think they too agree Hodgson is our MVP and not Skando!!!!

I hate to say it,but they give Buckets a big wrap as well. :? :shock: :eek:
Come to think of it,they must have been very drunk :p :p :p

Oooh cant wait for this game. How good did Kerr go last weekend!

The thing the Tigers have changed since the last time we played them, is that their line actually moves up in defence to meet the opposition. When we played last, i think the Tigers were the #1 club for giving up metres, hanging back to slide and giving alot of metres out of the oppositions half. It definatley will be a different ball game this time. Sheens is doing wonders.

BRING IT ON!

anyone who can bag skando-cant be going to many matches--he has been the rock of the joint--withers-i always liked him-limited skill but huge ticker--seem to be able to lift the team when they were down--but had one or two brain explosions--but i have a gut feeling that sheens knows more about football than me--but as for the thread--skando for the french league--get off the weed-he is week in and week out,the heart of the pack

This is not a Balmain vs Western Suburbs thing. Skando is sh1t and should have been sent to the French League a long time ago. .
Just as well you are not the coach! Next time I see you at Leichhardt you may have one of my faeces,where you may roll it in bread crumbs deep fry it and eat it. :lol:

I cant remember the side,but I do know we were in that game for half an hour....they got us just on both sides of the half to some very uncharacteristic mistakes.

We had a try dissallowed that could have gone our way too...and we have Wilson in form,and Payten and Boof back.

We can win this game if we kick well,and no mistakes......

The turnin point was when Wilson i think it was, was injured and didnt go off the field and Barrett being the smart player he is saw that and ran the attack straight passed him - that was just before halftime and they got another quick one after that!

nah Palsm definately Miles ... hopping on one leg. It was the turning point in one way but we were being monstered way before that. It was only a matter of time. However, our forward pack has greatly improved since then thanks to Laffranchi.

cheers

Thanks Red V.

Yeah as someone mentioned before....Payten and Boof certainly add something that wasnt there in the first clash, as do Senter and Mears.
