gotta love the footy, would hate to be a tigers fan or a punter that backed them cause you'd feel ripped off

So the controversial finish is all that people will be talking about, but what about the brand of football the Tigers are playing.

3 weeks now of ridiculously low scores, and absolute bare minimum of tries scored and conceded.

We used have this reputation of dragging teams down our level and fighting over a bone, but the Tigers have taken it to a new level.

3 tries scored, 2 conceded in 3 games.

It was like a game of Union last night - the scoreboard mainly being used for penalty goals and field goals.

Will be interesting to see how teams approach them from here on.

I guess with the amount of ridiculous penalties that are being awarded this year, taking the 2 whenever in kicking range will potential give you 10 - 12 points.
Then you hope to score 1-2 tries from attacking sets that haven't attracted a penalty and that pushes you up to 18-24 points per game.
A strong defensive team would win most games if they scored that but they are not likely going to be great games to watch!

I wonder if the call would of been such a big a topic if the Tigers had been the one to win off the back of a wrong call... I don’t think it would of.

Everyone hates the Broncos, no one cares about the tigers but it’s always nice to see the broncos lose, especially to such an underdog.

Hate seeing Saints doing well

I hate the stain almost as much as I love the sharks, but their brand of football is great to watch at the moment. Frizzel and Vaughn are machines and their spine is killing it.

I hate to say it, but they have a pretty impressive squad this year.

I hate the Saints but my level of hatred for them doesn't come close to what I feel for Melbourne and Brisbane, followed very closely by the Cows.

The hate for Manly seems to be way down these days.

Well I still hate them and Fulton as well.
