In the round's only match, with the rest being postponed due to the COVID-19 lockdown, both sides struggled to score at the Newcastle Basketball Stadium.
This was shown by Ben Bagoly's troops only converting 13 two-point field goals, seven shots from downtown and just seven free-throws.
The only two players to reach double-figures for the black and golds were Bruce Ozolins and Billy Campbell, who scored 18 and 12 points respectively.
This round 12 result sees the Tigers drop to fourth on the ladder with a 6-3 record, sitting behind St George (8-1), Hills (6-1) and Camden Valley (6-3).
The Tigers are next scheduled to face Hills at the Shoalhaven Indoor Sports Stadium but with the current COVID-19 lockdown imposed on the Greater Sydney area, that fixture, along with the majority of the rest of this weekend's Waratah League, has been postponed.
