[The Original Idiot]

Tigers by 18. The less people backing up from origin the better. I think the Tigers will get to the semis again this year, but no one seems to be noticing their rise as much as other teams.

Exciting game - Prince was great, Marshall showed glimpses and Laffranchi continued his form in to this game. Hodgson was a little off and due to a couple of misses at kick, I got my 1-12 off SportsTab!

The Roosters are gooooorrne. Finch and Anasta did nothing to show selectors why they should be retained either - Ricky will be wishing this season just hurry up and ended.

[Super Cronk]

Finch and Anasta were, for a lack of a better word, crap tonight.

I thought the young fullback Foley had a pretty good game tho.

[DeeGan]

Foley is a good find, he was very good tonight. I really enjoyed the game - HOW GOOD IS ROBBIE FARRAH? Sensational young player who will force Buderus in to early representative retirement for mine. One of the best attacking hookers I have seen since...well...since Backdoor Benny sadly

Definately. Farrah is very close behind Smith and Buderus IMO.

and Payne?

I haven't seen Anasta play quality football for a long time.

[Luke]

Good game played by the Tigers. Prince was great and as was Laffranchi. And what a kick out of dummy half from Farah to Benji. Great stuff.
