Tigers $1.09, Titans $7.75 (Centrebet)
Tigers: Tim Moltzen, Beau Ryan, Blake Ayshford, Matt Utai, Lote Tuqiri, Benji Marshall, Robert Lui, Bryce Gibbs, Robbie Farah (c), Keith Galloway, Liam Fulton, Gareth Ellis, Chris Heighington. Interchange: Mitch Brown, Todd Payten, Matt Groat, Aaron Woods
Titans: Jordan Rankin, Steve Michaels, Esi Tonga, Clinton Toopi, David Mead, William Zillman, Preston Campbell (c), Luke Bailey, Matt Srama, Matthew White, Anthony Laffranchi, Mark Minichiello, Greg Bird. Interchange: Brenton Lawrence, Will Matthews, Bodene Thompson, Luke O’Dwyer
THE TIGERS CAN FINISH THE ROUND IN THE TOP 4 if they can muster up a win by 13 points or more. Pre season many expected the Tigers to be in the top 4 but they have not been there at all this year and have had to fight tooth and nail after a slow start to 2011. Whether they would admit it or not, the Tigers must be feeling confident of a win tonight which would make it 7 in a row.
If the Titans can cause a massive upset, they will be safe from the wooden spoon. If not, they will go into a clash against the Eels next week knowing that the loser will take the unwanted accolade for 2011.
Mike’s Best Bet: None
Starting Bank: $2000, Current Bank $2744.73
