Says general sold out
Did this last time I came up
Just fleecing us tigers as there was no way GA was full
I had to pay premium at the gate to stand
And no one was there kinda
We get a good crowd there 16 odd but no way near full
pee off

Just saw a vid of Chol actually keeping his feet, throwing blokes off in attempted tackles and kick a goal....where was this when we had him???

[lamington]

He would do this one in 5 games then we think maybe this is his breakout game only to not back it up

[Tiger Khosh]

He then proceeded to drop a crucial uncontested chest mark on the wing when Gold Coast were chasing a goal in the last couple of mins.

I bought reserved seats last week $69 each

We're only selling sessions in a handful of bays

No way the rest of the boys are sold out

Anyone from OER going?

[WilliamPowell]

Yes, heading up Saturday morning 

[Tiger Khosh]

Now this is really a danger game. Seem to have a tendency to play crap against them and they have been much improved this season.

Whoever is playing on rankine, whether that’s Rioli or baker going back or whoever needs to be defence first. Rather have them get 10 possessions and shut him down then get 20+ and have him kick a bag and possibly win them the game.

King beat us up last year in the last qtr and they got us up there.   This time he is missing but they have Rowell and few others that missed playing. 

Without Dusty, Cotch and Noah I'm nervous. 

Need big games from a few players including Short, Baker, Nank and Lynch.

Tarrant to casboult, Gibcus to Chol, Grimes to Rankine, Broad to Ainsworth and Vlas to play loose. Think out backline actually matches up well even without balta and out forward line should be too much for them to contain. Mid should be ok with Prestia back but yeah agree but light on in that area.

Hopefully Vlaustin has had his only bad game of the year (terrible vs Eagles) out of the way and can be as good as he usually is.

I’m expecting to win. We are a better team. But if we play as bad as we did vs eagles it’s not going to be a good day.

First we need to bring pressure and tackle better. We are so bad at tackling
Graham was terrible. I can’t see him play that bad again.

Vlastuin out suspended

Vlastuin out suspended

Deserved the week. Ends a terrible game from him.

[pmac21]

Interesting selection this week.
Out Dusty, Vlastuin
In Prestia, who else (Miller, Martyn, Stack, Mansell) the options. 
Soldo to get another week against Witts, too tall for Nank. 
Castagna stays as sub, Lambert plays. 

[JP Tiger]

We will need legs & speed to play up there, expect wet & slippery but also warm & draining for our players used to cold.  With Vlaus going out it opens the door for Mansell or Stack to play HB, whichever is the fittest (endurance wise).  I'd leave Lambert at home (will run out of legs) & bring in RCD for Dusty & one of Martyn, Cumberland or Sonsie.   Will be great to get Prestia back in.   
We can win this one & well if we go about it right.  Grind them hard & make them go the long way around all night, outlast them & they will fall away late.
