"We had a few key focus points that we wanted to attack and that's the way that we would beat them. We wanted to play on instinct and play on where we could," Moore said after the 15-point win.
"It's been a tough first half of the season, but going into the game we simplified things a bit and just went out with the mindset that this was the start of our season.
"We've got a new coach, it's unfortunate what happened in the first half of the year but that's out of our control, there's nothing we can do about that and we just have to try and launch our season from here.
"We all know how to play footy. We just had to go back to playing for each other, enjoying each other's company out there and playing with a bit of spirit."
The Tigers, especially early on, played like a giant weight had been lifted from their shoulders as they blitzed the Eagles in their best first quarter of the season.
"There is a bit of that sense of relief, but that's all done now," Moore said of the coaching turmoil of the previous few months.
"We just have to concentrate on the second half of the season. We'll just go out there and play footy.
"That's what we're paid to do, that's what we enjoy doing and I think tonight we just showed what we can do when we play for each other and really look after each other out there."
Its one thing to play with a little more freedom of movement and flair, but it's something completely different to be able to dig in and see off a late challenge as these Tigers were able to do.
"They're a good team and we did miss our opportunities to be further ahead earlier," Moore said.
"They've got some experienced players out there and they kept coming at us. We managed to hold up down back which was great, but we have to play that each week now. It's no point playing like that tonight and then turning up and not doing the same next time."
