Eels vs Tigers 3, 2, 1

Important win but I don't know how you can win with so little ball movement. I thought the Tigers were clearly the better in general play. Scoreline flattered us IMO.

    • 4 tries apiece. Tigers should have scored at least 2 more by my count. Though they got lucky with that ridiculous forward pass along the ground. We didn't dominate like the score suggests.

       

      • 4 tries each the Jennings try was a joke clearly no try plus 3 penalty goals to us. We were the better team 

        • Never said we weren't the better team. We took our opportunities and they didn't. Tigers made far more inroads though. They looked the more likely. It didn't feel like a dominant 12 point win.

  • Tigers marched forward in the first half because we were not dominating the ruck.

    Tepai turned them around in the tackles and stopped that. He hit hard and ran hard. Wish he would stay if he get that back

  • Eels were more structured, played a percentage game and won well. Tigers had to play catch up for most of the match.

    That's a good win considering we have played only 1 game in 4 weeks, we were always going to be a bit clunky with thw ball with that buildup.
