Try OHC, even though we've not given him many opportunities you can just tell he's a proper finisher

Agree kph. And now we’ve got a nice little lead going into half time.

I think when I saw OHC had joined Tigers as I winger, I was hoping he'd be scoring from 20m runs rather than 2m...but well taken nonetheless

Him and porter seem unable to do a simple draw and pass, and feel the need to hold the ball (usually spilling forward in contact).

Very odd for such a basic skill
Kelly seems lost as to what to do and his basics are letting him down. He doesn’t have the footwork or speed to get away with limited basics.

it’s all about confidence …he’s a very good player who’s having a dip just try and keep some positivity as a group

Giving away possession and penalties for fun. Scrum is abysmal as is our attack Ben Youngs slowing the ball down for fun. A really dissapointing 40mins from Tigers only positives are Pollard and OHC with the amount of possession we squandered we should have been ahead more only saved by their poor goal kicking. We need a big 40 mins as it's dire so far
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

Looks like two bottom of the table teams in this game currently

So far an aweful game with two dire sides trying to workout which one is the worst

We should really accelerate away in the second half, but we've been very imprecise...

Disagree. He got blindsided by a great tackle from Seb Atkinson that forced a knock on and then carelessly chased when in front of a kick. Otherwise he's been solid. Took the knock down from OHC and took three Glaws defenders to bring him down. Just before half time it's him taking the ball close to the line and throwing a perfect pass to Steward that gives the platform for the try. That pass to Steward is textbook 12 play.

Steward has been fantastic, that long pass to OHC was pin point and his defenders beaten stats must be nearly in double figures.

We are far to inaccurate though, got to tighten up. McKellar is trying to get us to play more and we aren't supplying the platform for it to work.
