But he proved just how valuable he is to the Tigers after Benji Marshall selected him as halfback against the Eels.<\/p>\n
It took Doueihi a while to warm up but a terrific second half display almost clinched victory for his side.<\/p>\n
Tigers trailed 12-0 at halftime but hit back with a try from Fonua Pole.<\/p>\n
Doueihi then inspired a turnaround with a superb solo try, shrugging off two opponents before bundling the ball over the line after a lengthy run.<\/p>\n
