I think the jury is still out in regards to the tigers. Problem is, you don’t need to be a ‘great’ team this year. Just a good team with a healthy list and form at the pointy end of the season is probably enough. No team is starring in 2019. It’s another open year.
You haven't needed to be a great team for a few years. But the Tigers were a very good team the year they won it all. They were a superb team last year until they ran into us. If it weren't for some of their injuries earlier in the year, they'd probably be well entrenched in the top two.
Maybe they're not a great team, but they're very very good. These jerks deserve some credit.
