The club's three wins from three matches has it clear on top of the ladder, toppling the 2017 premiers, new additions of Cowra and club-mates Barnstoneworth Saints in their opening trio of games in the top division, and are the only undefeated team in competition.

The outfit has found the back of the net eight times in three starts.

However, it leaves Millthorpe unsure of where they sit early in the season.

Their draw hasn't been the best with them coming up against newcomers Cowra last week and Barnestoneworth United this week, but the team's goal-scorer from the weekend Nic Smith said that the team just wasn't connecting on the field.

"We just didn't play well at all and couldn't string enough passes together to even look like scoring,' he said.

It was in the first half in particular that the Tigers took a hammering but were able to keep themselves at equal pegging with Barnies at one goal each in the second.

"We were pretty disappointed at half-time when we were down three nil,' he said. "The boys got a bit of a spray before we went back on and although we did score one goal we still didn't play as well as we could."

Some simple errors were on show from the Tigers as they struggled to find their mojo but a header from Smith in the second half gave them at least one point on the card, and a bit of a fire in the belly, however their awkward ball skills didn't make it any easier.

The Tigers are hoping for an improvement against Waratah United this weekend.

"Hopefully we can bounce back and play a little bit better as we've done pretty well against this side in the past," he said.

Over the weekend, Saints defeated Ex-Services FC 4-1, while reigning champions Waratah FC defeated Barnstoneworth United 2-1, launching into their premiership defence after a 0-0 draw with Saints in round two.

Their opening game of the season, with club-mates Waratah United, was deferred until a later day.

Meanwhile Cowra has continued its strong entry in the ODFA competition by taking down Waratah United 3-0 on their home turf.

It leaves the new club with two wins and a loss, taking down one finalist from last season and pushing another in its opening three weeks.

Cowra play Ex-Services FC next week, while the Tigers have to overcome Waratah FC to rebound from their difficult start to the season.
