Really looking forward to this game. I came down to see the Tigers match last year, and they went with us until very late in that game through good pressure work. I think the tackling and forward pressure is something the Tigers have struggled to build up - but it's always been a bedrock of Wallace sides. Perhaps they were coming off a low base, as it's taken a while. But watching them this year, I'm seeing glimmerings of a fine working man's team on the up.
Anyone thinking this will be a cakewalk are getting ahead of themselves. Especially with Richo in such fine form (I hope his injury doesn't hold him back too much, we've so rearely seen Richo play to his potential in Sydney).
Also, I'll send a cheerio to the Tiger's grog squad. They're rough diamonds, but probably the best travelling fans we've had in Sydney in the last few years. The way they supported their team with positive chants in the face of appalling onfield performances recently has been a credit to the team.
Syd by 5 goals in a mostly tight affair if it's dry.
