Stick that up the people who think we will get the spoon...

And Simon before you comment just remember we are on the same points as you...

HAHAHAHAHAHA
I am guessing you are a Tigers fan?

You must have been more than nervous after the dogs came back to 36 all

Very disapointing start to the season for the Dragons. Where do you all reckon they might end up?

Near the bottem.. them and the Eels are perrenial under achievers.. I suppose you can throw the Warriors in to that category after their season last year but at least they are showing signs of a resurgance.

The Dragons consistantly get it wrong and I believe their coach isn't up to the mark.

It will be interesting to see who losses their job first - Nathen Brown, Brian Smith, Tony Kemp or Other.

Personally I think it will be Brown or Smith.

Actually quite the opposite, i knew our guys would hold on...

I have said all week we would win, and that wasn't cause i was a fan... I usually tip with mky head in my footy tippo's however this week i tipped them and it paid off with me being the only person to do so...

Haha sure you did..

Yeah I thought it would be close.. the Tigers always lift for Canterbury.. why I am not sure.

There is a great kiwi representation at the Tigers which I am loving.

Ill tell you why...

Because for years the bulldogs have tried to muscle in on the Macarthur Area where the majority of our juniors come from and its personal...

People who are outside the tigers dont understand some of the talent in this side...
Guys like Marshall, Fulton, Farah, Harrison, Halatau, and Gibbs are all top drawer youngsters and this year with game time they will only thrive.... IMO wooden spoon is out of the question....

Oh I see. Yea that does make sense as to why they lift their game

I have always liked watching the Tigers especially when they are on their game. They score some great tries and are nice to watch.

I am trying to count all the kiwis in the side.

There is Halatau, Marshall, Harrison and Whatuera.. any more you can think of?

haha blewy, Tigers WILL finish bottom 3, we know they always lift for the bulldogs. wests were hopeless in round 1, they are no chance of the 8, maybe they wont get the spoon, but they will be close...

tigers are not exciting to watch, give me teams like bulldogs, storm, manly, warriors, panthers any day of the week!

This team has so much in common with Penrith 2003..

A heap of youngsters coming through with a few good senior guys leading the way, A big win in Round 3 over a TOP side which will give confidence and self belief...

Mark my words this year will not be just another year...

Warriors?? Exciting???

Are you kidding yourself???

They are over-rated, you yourself even said this....

Make up your mind...

Are you going to tell me that you thought todays game was not entertaining??
What you'd much rather watch the bore of a game that was on Friday night???

International Debutant
Duly noted.

But I don't think they will have a Penrith season. Injury will tear them down, something the Panthers were incredibly lucky to avoid.

Im not for one minute suggesting that we will follow in Penriths footsteps, what i am suggesting is that any team which dares to take us lightly will pay...

The team is full of youth and exhubarence (sp?) and they will show what they can do this year...

International Captain
I was impressed with Benji and Prince is always impressive. Seymour will get the Queensland number 7 though. I'm not so sure they're going to maintain this for the season, if tehy do then hats off to them. But at best I'm thinking 10th-12th. If they really lift they might go near a cowboys of 2004, definitely not a Panthers of 2003 though!

Atleast they're playing better footy than the Dragons :lol:

The Warriors are exciting. Maybe not so much last year but the two years previous to that they were the most exciting team on attack in the game.

There are signs this year that they are coming back to their form of old.. they have a bigger chance of making the 8 than the tigers.

The Tigers are also good to watch when they are firing like today. Some of the tries they scored were sensational but IMO they won't find that same form again in the rest of the season.

Friday's game was also good to watch. The Broncos played some very entertaining footy

I think Prince will be somewhere in the mix for Origin
