My one word is Klein. He did his best to ruin this game but we prevailed. When is this clown going to be held accountable for his piss poor performances?? He has been the worst ref in the game for years!

What was the crowd chanting with 3 minutes to go? Just after the viking clap (which was great by the way)

API suspended for 3 matches. Will be interesting to see if they fight it. I hope so.

My one word is direction…. Not only our halves but the entire. Everyone knows their job in the team. It’s so good to see this, haven’t seen it in probably 15 years.

think we’d need Cleary’s legal team to clear it. Was innocuous but not sure whether to fight it or not.

One word, PACK. The forwards especially defended as one from the kick off with 4 in the first and second tackle limiting Raiders progress each set. Good line speed and visible connectivity between players too. A comment from the commentary team commending how the priority when defending broken play was to first set the line then move forward together to make the tackle. Very un-Tiger-like but good to see.  

Wonder who we will have to face the Sharks next week with Api probably suspended, KPP in doubt, Bula injury? Perhaps Turuva moves to FB and we see Makasini back on a wing. Tony Sukkar in the 2nd row or maybe Seyfarth? Its going to make it tougher to win but this team is capable of anything at the moment.

An interesting aside that speaks of the culture Benji has been building was that when the final siren sounded Benji turned immediately to Madden and Hope and shook their hands congratulating them on a team win, in a match that they did not even get on the field for. Such a strong, emotionally intelligent and inclusive move from our coach.

Stupid rule interpretation but it was a classic hipdrop

Word - Reversal. We are 5 and 2. Normally at this point in the year we are 2 and 5 at best.
