This is shaping to be an intriguing match up.
After playing some of the best clubs it will be interesting what attitude our players will take out against the Tigers.
The tigers are a bit of an unconventional team and it will prove a very different game to that against the bulldogs.
The tigers like to spread the ball and they have plenty of zippy guys and an improving halves combo.
If the Eels can play as well as they did against the Bulldogs there shouldn't be an issue however.
The Tigers will test our line if we allow their fast the play the ball to roll us back.
The possible inclusion of Robbie Farah also adds an interesting element.
If the Eels win it should see us sitting well within the top 8 after four rounds. If we lose we'll be sitting on the edge with 6-8 other clubs.
This game should reveal a lot about the character of our side and how they show up against so called easier teams.
My prediction Eels by 22

BA knows this is a bigger game than the dogs
I agree Will, JT will be all out to win this one.
Don't think we have beaten JT yet, must have some coaching credentials.
not saying that we should take them lightly.
these games are the danger games that we face.
a team that we are expected to beat somehow has had us nervous at times in the past.

Tigers have been good but they have leaked a lot of points over the first 3 games. My tip eels by 12
I hope our Defense holds firm shuts out the young halves from the Tigers and we go on to win it..
