'Desperate' Tigers bounce back

The Tigers were desperate to finish a troubled week with a win when they travelled to Townsville on Saturday night - and it didn't happen. But Benji Marshall got the next best thing in one of rugby league's toughest road trips - a real dig from his players. Down 32-6 early in the second half, the Tigers looked set for a hiding. But in an amazing fightback, they piled on four quick-fire tries in an amazing 14-minute burst to reduce the deficit to 32-28 before time ran out. One more try and it would have been the greatest comeback in league history - that doesn't look like something an unhappy team - which some would want us to believe the Tigers are - could produce.
