Yep good win. Any win at Leichhardt I will take any day
Worried for Kelly. Who might replace him if he is injured. Probably Blair I gather?
Hard luck for Alby, just before some rep honours too.

hey lads, listened on radio while i was out today. will watch the HD replay at 6pm.
we sounded great defensively, and like a real solid team and made most of the running for the day.
tigers have been the best attacking team this year until manly today, and we really spoiled there play.
in a year when alot of teams are attacking and going try for try, we are the ugly duckling who brings people back to the mud for a wrestle. it isnt like mellbourne dangerous wrestle, i mean like a streetfight, and its not the worst trait as the teams arent used to playing that way, they get frustrated and dont know how to respond.
also we are now into positive points differential, and our offload stats are quite remarkable.
we lead the league on 117 offloads, and second third and fourth are on 87, 85, 84 - we are 35% ahead of the next team in an elite comp...thats very significant and probably takes up 90% of our attack training and discussion.
Great win & we never looked like losing , Myles sin bin was right & I'm sure he would do it again if required , it would never have happened if Minichello hadn't fallen for the dummy & missed the tackle to start with.
Nelson only 1 hit up but was extremely strong in Defence & should be Minis replacement for the Souths match.
Great games from Taylor,Mead,Carter & Myles with a massive 48 tackles, thought James was starting to look good but gave away his standard 3 penalties..
Back on top & finally with a positive for & against..
If Alby is out Sezar to 7 & Blair 6
#itaintweaktospeak
I can't really fault anyone's effort today, except for James who gave away 4 dumb penalties. He really needs to work on that aspect of his game before it costs us.
Admittedly the Tiggers had a shocker, but the way a few of our lads stepped up today showed that we might be in for a shot of the Top 8 at the end of the season. It's the first time this year they played with confidence and prepared to back themselves. Our best showing to date this year (IMO).
Not too worried about Alby. He'll be back before we know it. Just as long as the rest of the team shows the same gumption as they did today while he's out.
Carter was amazing today... He dug in and gave us enough mongrel to draw attention away from Bird, who had an awesome tug o war with our old mate Bodene all game.... Very enjoyable to watch....lol
NEW! SOUTH! WALES!
The first 30 we played good attacking footy and then kind of nestled in to the grind
I thought taka had his best game of the season despite a few lapses on defence
Very good win with only James lacklustre meandering across field and his penalties marring it ... one of those was marginal but gee he is a walking (and I mean walking) liability. I think Kelly will bounce back with the rest so am not worried about that just yet.
Falloon and Sezer picked for City ... I hope they are both unavailable.
Four reasons to escape to Queensland: Sun, Surf, Sand & the Titans.
Only downside, apart from Kelly, was the utter bull that channel 9 serve up Sunday after Sunday...
From the delayed start, to the rushed finish...
Made me feel like a 2nd class citizen... oh wait, I'm a RL supporter...lol
NEW! SOUTH! WALES!
I hope Meady's Jaw is okay. Wasn't looking too good when he was grasping it..
