An interesting game. Tigers completed at over 80%, more tackle breaks, about the same metres per set, more offloads, more kick metres, 5 less errors, less missed tackles, higher effective tackle rate, only one more ineffective tackle, yet had 51 put on them? I just can't work it out.
Solid effort from us but a false dawn for mine, we still have plenty to do. It again, without 3 first choice forwards and first choice 6, and our metre eating winger, that was a sound first up performance at our new home that will count for little If we can't get past an ordinary and under the pump Knights, who, like the Raiders, we have a poor record against. It's a very good time for the Kingihts to be running into a team like the Eels. Beating us after that performance will take a lot of heat off Brown and Co, but complacency can be a real momentum killer and that is my fear for this weekend.
