The Dogs were still in the contest at half time, trailing 24-12, but the Tigers put their foot on the pedal in the second half and ran away with the match.

Crookwell Dogs coach Bruce Nixon was understandably filthy with the performance, but said there were still positives.

"We allowed ourselves not to get into the game," Nixon said.

"We had a lot of early mistakes and we lacked urgency.

"It was just one of those weeks and we just have to rebuild.

"The pleasing aspect out of the game was that we could still come back and score tries against the run of play."

Nixon however, was full of praise for the Tigers.

"Their structure is so strong," he said.

"They know where they're playing and they've got good players in the right places.

"Once they get it right, they are hard to beat."

In worse news for the Dogs, they dropped to third on the ladder after the Batemans Bay Boars beat the Jindabyne Bushpigs.

"At the beginning of the season, people were writing us off, but at least we're in the semifinals," Nixon said.

"Whether we end up in second or third is not in our hands anymore.

"We need to use next week's game against the Broulee Dolphins as a build up into finals."

On the other hand, it was all smiles from the Tigers which remain undefeated and coach Evan Rees said his side is so difficult to beat due to their chemistry.

"The boys have been together for about four years," Rees said.

"There's a fair bit of cohesion in the team and they just love playing footy together.

"They're all mates on and off the field.

"It's just a matter of making sure we're humble in victory and keep working hard."

With finals football looming, Rees is making sure his players are fit and ready.

"We've had our fair share of injuries, but every team has that problem.

"We just have to make sure the boys are ready for finals and fresh from injuries."

Despite the comfortable victory, Rees knows if the Tigers play them in the finals, it won't be easy.

"We learned a lesson a couple of weeks ago when we played them.

"We're still expecting a tough match against them if we come up against them in the finals."

The Tigers play the Bushpigs in their final game of the season.
