Luke Capewell 1. Nathan Merritt 2. Jamie Simpson 3. Colin Best 5. Fetuli Talanoa 6. John Sutton 7. Chris Sandow 8. Scott Geddes 9. Craig Wing 10. Roy Asotasi (c) 11. Luke Stuart 12. David Fa'alogo 13. Michael Crocker Interchange: 14. Issac Luke 15. Eddy Pettybourne 16. Shannan McPherson 17. Garret Crossman Capewell at fullback, Merritt to wing, and Ben Lowe is out, as is Kidwell from the bench. And crap that it looks like Crocker's legs are getting a little extra attention from the trainer in the dressing room. We NEED him. Last Edited By: babzee Jul 4, 2009 1:33 AM. Edited 1 times.

First touch and he gives Tigers an opportunity. And the Tigers score from a Farah kick. Tuiaki -- he's soooo tough. Kick is good. Tigers 6 Souths 0

Posts: 2394 (Jul 4, 2009 1:50 AM) Just Me More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	OK! We get piggy back penalties and a great run by Merritt. And we can't put it across. DAMN! Inches away! And another penalty against Tigers so we get position again. Did we lose the ball again? Yep -- scrum to Tigers And we get it back on another scrum. And a bunch of beautiful offloads. Wild play going on -- a chip and chase and we got it back almost by mistake ANOTHER penalty by Tigers We're right on the line TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! Capewell! Good speed and a good fend!! And a good aggressive decoy by Crocker Last Edited By: babzee Jul 4, 2009 1:53 AM. Edited 1 times.

Six again for Tigers Crocker smashes Benji And Tigers score -- maybe. Spinning away from Crocker at the line. Video ref checking for grounding. TRY Tigers Kick is good Tigers 18 Souths 6 "Souths are just not adjusting their numbers" I'm hating this so far.

The boys are all standing there watching Benji prep to kick and no one is talking. Sheeesh. Kick is no good Tigers 22 Souths 6 Come ON Souths!!! "Souths need an injection of enthusiasm, and here comes Issac Luke."

Tigers just roll down the field at will." Capewell made a dunce play but we kept the ball and got to our kick. And Tigers knock on. At least we're making some meters TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! Another for Capewell! GREAT pass by Besty off a quick play the ball by Wing.
