1. When defending tigers compress defence when ball is down towards Tuqiri and Lawrence wing. Fitzhenry on the other wing is 25 meters infield.

2. Farah has a sneaky short side play on Tuqiri’s wing. Inside pass to Benji, with Tuqiri coming down sideline.

3. We need to kick high when on tigers try line, towards Fitzhenry’s wing. We need to pressure him with players surrounding him off high kicks.

4. Our Markers need to be on song and ready for tigers dummy half scoots. Tigers religiously scoot at least 1-2 times a set. Tuqiri does this often.

5. We need to angel our forwards away from Tigers marker defence; there marker defence is very strong.

6. Tigers score majority of tries from 30meters or more, our cover defence needs to be executed very well.

7. Tigers attack mostly on their left side, down Tuqiri and Lawrence’s wing

8. We should kick the ball out as much as possible, kicking along ground towards Tuqiri’s wing as he is very lazy to turn around to get to ball, mostly leaves his fullback to return ball.

9. Fifita must be watched from inside ball off both Farah and especially Benji.

10. We need to apply a **** load of pressure to Benji, when he is kicking, he kicks high and deep.

11. Last week the cowboys had good defensive sets when they ran up from their line as a team to meet the tiger’s forwards, we can’t have gaps because Farah’s and Benji’s short and inside balls will kill up all night.

That's way too many things for us to do. You're assuming we've been on our game all year...

Why don't we fix up our own game first?

17 men with testicles run out onto the field.

That is all.

And where is the club supposed to find them??? ................ be realistic, they can get 6 or 7 but the rest will have to make do testicle-less

Well considering Gareth Ellis' tactics as of late, we're better off fielding players who have no balls.

Poor Thurston, he copped 110 kilos of solid knee.

Mate you might well have outlined a lot of things that the Tigers do that teams would be concerned about but we're such a mess that we can only concentrate on getting our own backyard in order. We can't think about another team, only focusing on correcting every area we're shocking in. Of which there are many. Tactics fly out the window at this point. We're our own opposition most games.

Our defence will need to improve considerably for us to have any chance.
line speed and commitment to the tackle........please fellas
The big, skilful tigers pack will kill us with offloads otherwise, and then there is farah up the guts.

We need to fix our line speed.
Get numbers into a tackle.
Compete in the ruck.
Look to hammer them, not just tackle them.

Theres so many things we need to improve on. If we can fix up our own team first, we will negate most of the Tigers Strengths

Line speed is 100$ right Moe.

On our tryline, the middle moves up and the edges stay back. Melbourne dont conceide points cause they move up as a line and they dont let teams OFFLOAD!

We get numbers in, we just cant wrap but the frek'n ball.

the tigers r gona killl us...unless we stop dropping off tackles...morris is a gun...but hasnt look interested the past 2 weeks...this is making it hard for goodwin...not that they have got much quality ball anyway...barba needs to start at 5/8 and roberts off the bench...and Tim brown needs to start too....and swap morris to turners side....there is no way Idris will be able to tackle lawrence or tuquiri...im just praying they dont put 50 on us...and as a season member...im glad this is an away game...coz im really not in the mood to go to the game and watch us perform like that again!!

Warriors had almost double the offloads against us compared to Tigers last week.

Just a thought ....

Price used to do this sort of thing, we need to rush their kicker.
We will also have to copybook tackle Tuquiri around the ankles.

FFS where are we as a team when we are fearing the tigers this much.

We sort out our internal **** and whatever rift is within the team and we will start winning.

A champion team will always beat a team full of champions

Knowing what the Tigers do - and being able to do something about it, are two entirely different things.
