What was the final score?


when i left it tigers were up by 10 with 2 mins to go, they mightve got a late try as well.

the tigers were down 12 nil and then benji marshall played the game of his life.

MOTM.

the tigers played some brilliant RL.

No chance IMO, unfortunately it's too late in his career now. He has a young family, he'll be on a very good wage at Leeds and could be very well set up for a few years to come so I don't think well see him in the NRL, which is a shame.

As for McGuire, the only thing professionally stopping him i can see is money and that he is in a long term contract with leeds, allthough whether there is a clause in there about letting him go to an NRL club I do not know.

Is Marshall now playing at 7? what about Mcguire at 6 and Marshall at 7 for the tigers?? would they be too similar in style of play or do you reckon it could work?

the NRL "intensity" myth is going to get blown out of the water this season...


they were only intense because they played slow,boring,up the middle,percentage RL..


they are'nt playing like that anymore

Haha, you will never lose that chip on your shoulder.

Barrett has already commented on the difference in intensity on his coming back to the NRL. I'd bet we'll hear it from Ellis sometime this year also. It's the plain truth.

unfortunately it is the truth, but that doesnt mean Super Leagus isnt a good entertaining product because it is, the problem is you will only get a handfull of games that will match the NRL for intensity (last Fridays game was one of them!)

benji is playing 7 now

hes been up and down but today he was brilliant

this could be the biggest sheens masterstroke ever.
if mcguire came to teh nrl they wouldnt give him the 6 straight away.

they probably put him on the bench or centres to see his impact

though with john morris as the tigers 6 i think mcguire would be a better option

i read a story that peacock was going to souths next year under a loan but then mclennan changed his mind.

so it could be a chance.

That would be the only chance of him going.

As for Mcguire, i wouldnt put him in the centres TBH he's actually matured into an out and out 6 IMO

He's way too small for a centre I reckon, especially in the NRL.
Although for some reason i'm sure he played on the Wing a few times when he first came into the Leeds team 5 or 6 years ago, could be really mistaken though.
