@garry Pretty sure you’ve mentioned it previously but it would be a terrific boost for our club if the Flegg team do well. Wests Matts, Cubs, Harvey Norman women & hopefully the Flegg can give us some positive outcomes from the season.
Currently sitting in 3rd with a couple of players we can send back down to bolster the side.

Unfortunately I will be watching this game from a Corporate Box as a guest of a mate. The only Tiger amongst a room full of Roosters. Will be a long night.

It's only got to be a good thing for the young up and comers, to experience grand finals and expect winning.
We need to drive a culture of winning and high standards - only way out

Hopefully this is my first ever post on this forum. I'm not sure how to post but here goes. Have read all the other comments and enjoyed them. Very insightful. My take is that Noddy has picked just about the best team he can out of the limited troops available. To state the obvious the first 15 mins are critical. Their props will try to smash through us early like Cronulla did. To avoid them running up a cricket score ( it is the SCG!) James, Zane & our forwards have to do better than they did last game and I think they will. Hopefully the ref won't keep the Rorters camped in our 'red zone' like last week with restarts late in the count and that we avoid stupid mistakes and Adam kicks us out of trouble. If we can do this and our defensive line speed improves markedly we might at least offer stern resistance. That's the best we can hope for. I would take an honourable defeat in this match just to restore a bit of pride in our horrendously injury depleted squad. It's up to Noddy to fire them up ( esp Tuilagi). Getting Joe O to address them in the dressing room before his 150th game would be a start. And on the field the captain ( I don't know who it is) and senior players to keep discipline and line speed strong. We did this as recently as 3 & 4 weeks ago and won both games. So it's not totally out of the question for our boys to at least really ruffle the feathers of those Salary Cap cheats and give us fans something to be upbeat about. Never lose hope. If they go down let's hope they go down swinging. Go Tigers!!!

Welcome to the forum mate and a really strong first post.
I think we are in for a long night but hope you are correct.

Welcome to the forum mate. good start.
@robbierat1 Welcome in.Share your sentiments but no Jacko,no joy.JWH and Lodge are in the mood for a little bullying I imagine.Complacency would be the Rorters’ biggest threat,but we always live in vague hope.Go Tigers!

We’d need field position for that lol

Wear a sombrero
@tigersteve lol true if our forwards play like last week it may be 56 to 0
