Tigers Dogs game is entertaining.

I think we're in for a tough game against Dogs.

14 - 6 Tigers at the break
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Commentators losing their minds because Sezer is not binned following a Hip Drop Tackle.

Even saying that’s always a sin bin, only 2 nights ago at this very game that was a sin bin.

Should we tell them?…..

Yep she let Bulldogs get away with a lot over the last 20 minutes that has frustrated the Tigers into losing the plot.

That late tackle by Crichton on Sezer when he was held in the tackle was ridiculous.

We’ll have to watch the Bulldogs wrestle. They’ve really slowed down the ruck with a lot of work around the arms and the ball.

Banning the punch has created a new problem.

The pest.

You get idiots like Marni gobbing off all game and get away with it.

He put dirt in his pants with Hetherington confronted him.

Weak as.

What about the forward pass that everyone ignored?

4 successfull captains challenge.

A lot of frustration out there today.

200 games for Cameron Munster. He is apparently 29. Is he the oldest looking person below 30 getting around?

If Badger wasn’t bad enough to drop after our game against the GC, surely that game is. She’s terrible. Nickmam won’t agree though.

He's a coward.

Talking crap, knowing there's no consequences?

He's Ennis part 2.

Put him in the era against Roach, Davidson, Carroll he'd have the hell beat out of him.

And to follow it up by asking the bunker to look at the contact between Bateman and Curren was a double down.

Tigers did exactly what Stick said he was really pleased we did not do against the Titans.

Saw the Dolphins cowboys replay. Cracking game.
Much rougher night for Fuller. Really struggled under the high ball.
Both sides deserved a win.

Sharks and Dragons will be the first sub-aquatic game.
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

2023 was a fluke year for the Warriors. They’ve lost to Dragons, Titans (at home) and Knights without Ponga.

Don’t make the finals losing those games.
