They're still complaining about the Api no try. that hasn't been a try for years. the rule is simple. as soon as their is separation then you must regrip (i.e. catch) the ball before it hits the ground or it is a knock on. no grey area in that one
 
I love how the tigers no try is somehow controversial because they are the shitty underdogs, we were denied one for the same thing earlier this year. He lost the ball and didn’t re-grip & control it….

We don’t look like we’ve got out of first gear, I have a theory that they have a hard time getting up for these games after plane trip to Sydney and bus trip out to a shithole suburban ground, it probably feels like a trial game to them after playing in front of 35k at Suncorp.

The agenda is to barrack and feel sorry for the underdog any time we play.

I thought Api should have got that try. Atkins is having an ordinary game. 12 for the Tigers was never on side when he tackled I think Riki and some of the 6 again calls and penalties and our poor handling is the only thing keeping them in it.

The Tigers didn't deserve the chance anyway, it was on the back of the Referee driving them forward with bullshit set restarts.

Atkins had given it, it was the numpty in the Bunker (who apparently can also decide knocks ons from front on camera angles) that took it off them.

I think we also have a bad habit we really need to get out of, of playing down to the level of our opponent.

although TBF, the Tigers have shown more resilience this year. it even took the Panthers a while to put them away last week

Just in a good mood so far
 
I would 100% give the Api try, but we have had some poor calls. It limited our possession and has basically affected our energy having to defend so much. This is how the 6-again works as a game management tool. By tiring the Broncos out, the Tigers begin to look better than they are.
