It was entertaining to watch the Tigers playing good teamwork footy. The Tigers are finding form at the right time year, with some strong opposition in the next coming weeks. Other try scorers were Shy Mariner 2, Walley Gaeta, Lewis Dywer, Zac Hunt and Josh Cooney.
Youth League
They are finding form as well with a strong win over Grenfell 28-4. There was a bit of niggle in the game but the boys settled down and played good footy running in six tries but only kicking two goals. The score could have been better with the Tigers bombing a couple of chances. The boys have a bye this week.
League Tag
The Tigeresses were in control the whole game running out winners 24-14. They lead 20-6 at the break and the second half there were a few changes and the girls seemed to have gone into cruise mode, with Grenfell hitting back with two late tries to make the score more respectable.
This coming weekend the Tigers take on the strong Condobolin outfit in first and league tag at Tom Clyburn Oval, so head along and show your support.
