Half time

Tigers 0 - 6 Bulldogs

Bulldogs have had most of the possession, territory and chances.
Tigers' defence held out well for the most part but eventually the consistent Doggies pressure on them told and Frank pritchard ran into an inviting gap to finally break the Wests' line.
Steve Turner converted it.
Tigers were near the Canterbury line as the half time hooter went.

[G Las D]

Next game shown here straight after the Tigers/Doggies show is from Perth where Rabbitohs take on Broncos.
It'll be interesting to see the turnout and conditions.
According to Freddie it is bitterly cold at Campbelltown. That probably means it has just dipped below 20 degrees!

[G Las D]

Tigers were never in this game.
The best you can say of them is that they worked hard for the most part in defence.
Having said that McKinnon had a nightmare at the back knocking on or losing the ball repeatedly.
Farah kicked through at the play of a ball for Tigers to get a slight consolation.
Without Benji Marshall they looked lacking in attack and variation.

Now it's over to Perth!

[G Las D]

It's absolutely tipping it down in Perth.
Peter Sterling opened up the show under an umbrella which was turned inside out just at the end of his piece to camera. Ace!

[G Las D]

Ah yes, Bourbon Rat, according to your link it's 7.3*C there now - shirt sleeve weather!
