Doesn't matter who they have as coach. That club has just got no heart. The players have got no ticker. There's no determination in the joint, basically. They don't care enough.

I think that covers it. :laugh:

Disagree. Maybe last year but this year we have tried hard as proven by our for and against not being too bad (-13 I think). We were in a number of close matches that we just didn't nail. Kemp had to go. Too much talent and not enough results.

how do u figure? i said tigers would lose last week and people said i was stupid, but i was right, u didnt call anyone a fool then...

and i think ur forgetting they've won nothing yet, all that matters is who wins the comp and tigers are still 5th favourite...

now dont embarass yourself...

That's all well and good to say, but the Tigers won 50-6! And Marshall & Prince pretty much did everything they wanted too. While I don't think the Tigers will win the comp, I'm less confident of that prediction now then I was at 5 pm last night.

FFS, what else could they have done to be anymore dominant???

At least Kyle has the respectability to admit he was wrong and say they were good...

OH BTW i think the 1st set score is Tigers 6-0....IIRC they were meant to be out in straight sets...


GO YOU BLOODY TIGERS!!!!!

LOL at Simon. Straight sets huh? How embarrasing.

tigers might want to work out some sort of defence structure before they even consider ever challenging for a premiership...
tigers to go out in straight sets...

tigers wont win another game in 2005...

they will crumble under the pressure, and even if they do win tomorrow they will go out in straight sets in the finals...

No one on here said you were stupid for predicting that.

LOL, if you guys are only concerned with who and who im not predicting you need to have a long look at yourselves. I wasnt the only one to say Tigers would go out in 2, they are well coached and make up for a lack of ability compared to the top teams with good plans developed by the coaching staff. It showed against Penrith and Melbourne that if you expose their weakness they can be easily stopped, Cowboys went in with the wrong game plan and paid for it...

You are right, many on LU were thinking along the same lines as you. I just don't understand why you were so defiant about it all. Do you have something against the Tigers?

I for one am really happy for the club. Wests and Balmain must have gone through hell when they made the tough decision to join forces and then after 5 years of poor results finally their true fans have something to cheer about. I also think it's great for players like O'Neil and Skandarlis (sp?) who have been so loyal to finally taste some success.

:huh: Should we just all shut up and wait for grand final day? :p
Nah, you guys can keep making fools of yourselves :p

Seriously, I was shocked by last night's scoreline. The Cowboys did not play well but the Tigers were awesome. I knew they could attack like that, but their defence was brilliant. Hats off to Tim Sheens and Royce Simmons.

and if i recall correctly um the knights where almost on the brink of beating the premiership favourites, with a pass not going to hand, considering the mighty knights finished last ......


i liked the tigers play last night and you could tell it was annoying the cowboys as the most over rated dally m winner thurston was getting very frustrated, go you good things!!!....

Up The TIGERS!
