Great game Tigers and happy for the players and coaches, finally playing for points and that they've got off to such a great start. Mon is an absolute star of this comp. Courtney dominant forward and our forwards hungry. We will gain loads of confidence from the win and the way they constructed it. I can't remember a game where we were so solid across all areas of the ground. Our skill execution, especially our handball game was awesome. Now just need to keep the consistency of bringing at this level. We have a real test up next week against the Dees midfield of Paxton, Hanks etc, but we have the pieces to the jigsaw this year to hopefully now test some of the top teams.
Plus we tackled and tackled hard. Mon Conti led our tackle count and lay some brutal tackles.
Our pressure was off the charts.
Yes, they had good players out and if they played the margin would have been closer but there wasn’t an easy ball to be had for them pretty much all night. Result would not have changed.
