Capt Lee stars in State Cup Balmain Ryde Eastwood Tigers skipper Lee Bennett led by example with a man of the match performance on Sunday at Wenty in a fiery State Cup game over the Wenty Maggies. The Tigers pretty much had the game won by half time with a 10-6 lead and went on with it soon after lemons to race away 16-6. Fans will have a better chance to see the State Cup Tigers when they play a curtain raiser at the long awaited and long overdue first home game at Leichhardt Oval HQ by Tigers Firsts on Sunday week May 25 when we host Gold Coast and welcome back Scott Prince to Tiger Town. It will be a triple header with the Tigers under 20s also in action over the Gold Coast Tiddlers and should be a sell out in contrast to the disastrous previous “home” game at the Olympic stadium with a hand full of fans and supporters to see the Bananbenders in action. Firsts had a bye last weekend as did the junior cup sides becoz of the Australia-NZ centenary test at the SCG on Friday night in which Tigers Dene Halatau had a blinder for the Kiwis and was a stand out to help the Kiwis win the second half 12-6. After the game this weekend its back to the Tigers den. See ya there. |
