    Just seen the game.

    Pretty tidy performance, except for the last 8 minutes.

    God damn we need to learn how to shut the door on teams. There’s no way the Dolphins should have got that close in the end.

    Discipline was very poor today, gave away a lot of penalties and set re-starts including 2 or 3 on the last tackle when there was just no need.

    Gee we had some opportune in that first 20 without getting any reward.

    It finally clicked and we looked like world beaters on the second 20.

    What I didn’t like on that final quarter was that we went into our shell a bit. The second phase play disappeared. There was great kick chase and we didn’t put pressure on at the tackle to slow down their quick play of the ball.

    Good to win though and keep the comp on notice that we can keep winning the close ones. For our AFL fans we are winning like the Pies did in season 2023.

    Xavier Coates with a piece of play that will see him on contention for both Mark of the Year and Try of the Year.

    Was a cracking game last night and I'm still shocked cronulla won

    This year it seems we are getting more 50/50s going our way (which they never do) and here we are 8-2.
    Meanwhile in Oz nobody rates us still even though we have the most improved spine of any team this year hence our results!!

    Mediocre yet exciting game in the end between The Tigers and Bunnies. Koloamatagi, Graham, Arrow and Latrell staking late claims for Origin spots. Korosau nearly carrying the Tigers to victory on his own.

    Personally would have had both Kolo and May ahead of some of those origin picks. Incredible energy levels

    Right now I'd be happy if they offered Koroisau a million a year based on that effort. At least he did something other than getting sinbinned.

    Yeah surprised that Max King got the nod with Utoikamanu an Olokolatu as backups. Thought May at least was guaranteed.

    Put Latrell on his arse twice too haha. Otherwise it was a poor display from them which they still nearly got out of with Galvin until he dropped it over the line. Probably the worst I've seen Luai play too.

    you know, the Tigers don't have any excuses, and maybe Lachlan Galvin is right. To lose by 10 to a very depleted Bunnies, if the Tigers are a serious team they can't be losing that. And they can't claim ambush given what Souths did last weekend. Especially after the absolute towelling they copped last weekend.

    Wahs to second! And yet i still don't feel we're a threat to the top sides. We're scraping through against some average sides.
    Comp looks like Storm, Bulldogs and Raiders at the top as the really good teams. A couple of good team below them in the Warriors and the Sharks (saturday result not withstanding).

    And behind them a lot of flaky untrustworthy teams.

    And then the Knights and the Titans. There is more life in the rebuilding Eels than either of these sides, and it's no surprise that AOB and Hasler are in very hot seats.

    Very predictable NSW team. Very strong NSW team. When you get to leave May, Turbo, and Luia out it's not exactly fair is it?
    Qld's rumoured team is very interesting, but not in a good way.

    NSW 3-0 unless injury continues to hammer them (Haas and Crichton already in doubt) or Daley is an absolute spud.

    spot on, will take our wins but they're hardly convincing.

    I think AOB gone by tomorrow, Hasler cant be far behind
