Gameday Tigers vs Warriors - [Round 4, 2025]

[wizard of Tauranga]

Even game so far… may the best team (Warriors) win!

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Frustrating, but we're in the box seat if we play smart. Solid platform up front and they have a lot of injuries to deal with. We have the right bench for the occasion.

 

[Wah's Up]

Tigers absolutely do not deserve to be even but it’s same old story, some average set ends and then switching off to concede. Hopefully the forwards can continue as they were after half time.

The crowd have been controlling the Ref

 

[sup42]

I read in here the Tigers were no good and flattering to deceive against poor opposition.

Well I am prepared to stake my footy rep on saying fook off these Tigers are really good whatever bs you believe from past seasons that no longer apply.....tonight's Tigers are sharp both sides of the ball.

Thing is, Tigers played crap teams sure, but that doesn't logically follow that they themselves are rubbish.

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Metcalf is fucking up our flow. Hangs on to the ball & runs into traffic himself. Or throws hospital passes when nothing is on. Kills our momentum!!

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Well, we have a bit of experience in grindy games, hopefully that plays in our favour.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

We are dominating them in the middle and worked really hard for our second try. So it is so annoying we give the lead up like that. But we just have to keep doing what we are doing.

Unfortunately we are into the wind this half

Solid platform wasted by Metcalf!

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Demetric is ripping it up.

 

[Adamnz support]

CNK looks lost in attack!!!

 

[Wahs_Ultras]

Tigers have only 1 forward on the bench in the second half

 

[Viking]

Why is Ali doing so little work? 4 runs for 44m is lazy. He doesn’t look to go in for carries.

 

[Mr Drag]

Solid platform wasted by Metcalf!

Looks a lost man!

What's sad is that if we win this and keep winning AW won't make any changes. Will need some losses with his poor play for a change to be made.

 

[Tookey 2.0]

Eh, a bit deflated with that try before halftime but I thought we controlled that game well for most of the first half.

Same old issues around us clicking. I'm not too bothered, and I feel it's coming, but yeah we've had quite a lot of possession and don't have a lead.. will be interested to see how these young bucks respond. Will they overplay their hand? Demitrics looked hungry tonight.

We should wear them down as the game wears on as it looks like they have 2 players off. But yeah, play smart and hard and we should come away with the 2.

How good has Kosi been so far...

 

[Damo]

Keep him fresh for the attacking sets, he doesn't need to do work.

 

[Makasene]

Keep in the grind, it's going to be tight. We are working hard for our points so can't let them off with break away tries like that.

Liking our more enterprising attack, quite a few offloads and spreading the ball.

Jeez, I'm finding it hard to keep backing Metcalf. He quite clearly is not a ball-player...

Kosi is going well, without a doubt! Has to keep it up.

 

[Mr Drag]

How good has Kosi been so far...

He looks bigger than May! Should be a forward!
