The Tigers would be tunnel balling it 50% of the time... Obviously that isn't the in the rules anymore...

And can we have one game where we don't let in an easy one in the middle of the field?

11th min TRY TIGERS to Chris Lawrence. Horrible defence from Canberra on the goal line. Austin well out of position... and it creates a hole in field as they drift to cover the hole. Really poor defence from Canberra. Converted.

Wests Tigers 6-4

Once again the basics of defence aren’t there out on that right side.

Embarrassing. No other team concedes tries as softly as we do. Not NRL standard.

That wind is going to murder our kickoffs, dropouts, bombs, basically any kick all first half. We just need to hang in there.

No excuses for this defence, though.

Austin such a liability in defence. Every play he finds himself in no mans land.

This line speed and defensive spacing are **** awful.
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.

Why do we always completely lose momentum when we concede points? No effort in that defensive set and we'll probably concede another try to one of the worst attacking sides in the comp.

I just need to come to the conclusion that no matter which position they play they are all just average.

I'm over this already. Why even bother.
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.

14th min TRY TIGERS to Corey Thompson. More horrible defence from Blake Austin on the goal line. It is awful from the Raiders. Converted Marsters.
