Wow that goal kick couldn’t have been any closer. Tense way to finally get a win
Thank god for that. Who would have thought Ben Cummins would ever give us something.
Well done boys, take the win and enjoy it. IMO we made it a lot harder than we should have but never gave up and got the win thatnks to a great captains knock by Api. Api made some mistakes playing a position he is not used to and carrying the whole club on his back but not since Benji ahve we had a player who would grab a game by the scruff of the neck and win it himself. Bravo Api.
Good games by Simpkins, Twal, Stef, Pole, Bula, Tupou and even kepaoa.
Take the 2.
On a side note, does anyone remember "ex tiger" JJ Collins?
I don't normally like taking tomato sauce odds $1.50 but going to back tigers today
You really think Bennett is going to allow himself to get beaten by Benji? I think $1.50 is ridiculous odds.
Better than bank interest absolute heart attack stuff I never normally take anything under 6/4 odds. Probably won't do that again anytime soon
Never easy. Reflections on the game:
- we were dudded again by the ref, particularly in the first half. Definitely a forward pass in the tackle before the dolphins first try. So frustrating.
- really good game from twal and simpkin. Thought pole was good too, though it’s like he always steps up a gear around the 60th minute.
- the wheels have really come off nofo at the moment. Looked clueless under the high balls and in defence, and even his trademark way of finding his way to the line failed him today after the niu high tackle.
- it is great to finally get a bit of luck with api’s goal. If that had bounced the other way there would be no denying we were cursed.
Can't believe we won on the back of winning a short kickoff and a forward pass being called in our favour. Wonders never cease.
