NRL: Benji Marshall and Api Koroisau spoke to the media following a disappointing night in Wollongong despite a promising start.
Entering halftime leading 14-12, the Tigers conceded 44 second-half points in a sensational collapse that saw them complete just four of 11 sets and run for 222 metres.
Seven of the Tigers’ 11 errors came in the second forty, while ill-discipline plagued them, as has been the case this whole season.Halfback Jayden Sullivan was sent to the sin bin for a professional foul on Luciano Leilua in the 49th minutes. He was the Tigers’ ninth sin bin of the season, the most of any NRL club.“We find someone to get sin-binned every week. give away silly penalties. We lost our head unfortunately we’re in a position where we can’t do it to ourselves and we do,” he said.
“I thought tonight we showed glimpses at the start of the team we want to be, particularly the first half. However, he reiterated that his side were their own worst enemy on multiple occasions in their loss to the Dragons, particularly during the second half.
