@tigerblood93 said in Maguire Explains Douehi Positional Change:

Bet it’s a smokescreen for Madden to start with Brooks and mybe of the bench to cover liddle or play lock of the bench. The whole week everyone’s been talking about mybe and douehie and not a mention of madden playing. He’s got wraps on him so smart if that’s what’s happening. The interviews make it look suss aswell, I really think madden is starting.

I hope Madden starts. It will good see how he handles 1st grade.

Honestly speaking I think Simon Dwyer is a big part of the problem, along with the other assistants.

There I said it.

Good luck firing him.

Why would they fire him? He’s just the stats man I think. Our current schemozzle is hardly Dwyer’s fault.

Well all you suckers on this great forum that death ride the Club,the Coach and the Players…good old TT had to work until about 11.00pm last night and had to miss the Mighty Maggies game,however while at work TT ran into one of his mates daughters who happens to be leaving at 4.00am to head up to magic round with her husband,she is a Raiders tradgic as is her hubby…
TT gave them $20 bucks and said "you put in $20 and we will have $40 on the Mighty Tigers all up the Raiders…at least TT puts his money where his heart is…I think it could be a good bet,although the faiders are on a slide they have to win to be a chance at the top 8 as well as saving some face after resent games…

Interesting comments by Gus on brooks that a lot people don’t get

https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/round-10-gus-backs-madges-controversial-changes/id1210505372?i=1000521398066

Yeah Gus said he liked the make up of the team.
Said Brooks tries his guts out and is very talented. Said he isn’t whats wrong at the tigers.
Also said he’s a fan of Moses and likes him in 5/8
When asked about Douehi and that he’s been our best. Gould said but we haven’t been winning so coach has right to change the team around.
Said we need to win as doesn’t know where we go from here.
He likes our team.
And tipped us to win.

Nice comments from the guy who runs the Warriors.

I would think he has enough issues.

What does that even mean?

So because he took up a job to help the warriors he has no idea?
I guess all of his knowledge and achievements are invalid now.

I applaud him for taking on the warriors job. Not many credible people in the biz would have.

Just saying it’s easy to make comment on what other clubs should do when it’s not your club.

Well actually he didn’t comment on “what Tigers should do”, he said he had a theory what Madge might be going for with the changes he made. It was more about a possible explanation for Madge’s decision rather than advice or a suggestion on what he should do.

I just listened to the podcast 5 mins ago.

Did you catch what Gus said to the Qld supporter when he told Gus to sit down.

Went back and played that bit 3 times and still couldn’t catch what Gus said.

No I stopped about half-way through, I didn’t have time for all 55 mins.

Allowed.

Allowed.

Good to see you said it Aloud

My prediction is Madden will be a turnstile but then again I still look forward to Santa coming down the, non existent, chimney 🤷‍♂️

It didn’t hurt this week.

As soon as I saw Mbye named in the centres on Tuesday I knew all hope was lost.

Loaded up on the Titans to kill the pain.

Pfft…Go load yourself up to a Titans forum and beat it nerd.

Pretty sure you’re beating it right now.

All good. You just keep putting your money on teams to beat the Tigers to “ease your pain”.

The thing is that you and I both know once you put your money down you are hoping the Tigers lose or at the least happy enough if they do. Don’t bother trying to refute that. You know that’s the case. So sorry, but you aren’t a real fan.

No need to get so worked up Mr.Madge admirer.
Have a good rest of your Sunday night.

All good mate, you’re not capable of getting me worked up. You’re not a real fan.

We’re not a real club so don’t expect real fans.

What …I’m my own imagination …or my own imaginary friend lol …surely I’d pick better mates than Hobbo and Geo in that case hehe

3 Laurie - looked dangerous all night
2 Doueihi - looked like he cared
1 Stefano - I hope this kid stays with us for his whole career

he has some cheek about him2,enjoys the pot stir

Does anyone think Benji has gone?
Did he actually say goodbye?

@mike said in 1st tackle six agains:

The rule should be changed to a penalty in the first two tackles then six again after that. Six again on tackle 1 & 2 only advantages the defending side.

The rule should be, if 6 again is awarded to a team & the other team deliberately holds down on the the next tackle, there should be a sinbin. That’ll stop deliberate holding down on that ruck for the defence to get set. Happens league wide. Even the Tigers have been guilty of it. But today, the Titans constantly did it. Referees are too gutless to send someone off cause they’ll be criticized afterwards. But they are getting criticized now, so, in for a penny, in for a pound, and do what’s fair.

We’ll have to wait until it happens to the Roosters before any action is taken.

I’m not sure what Gold Coast see in esan to rush him in so fast. He is a turn style at the best of times yet alone in a brand new team

Was at the game and watched AD closely (have always been interested in his development).

What stood out to me most to the point where it was visibly obvious - towards the end of the game he was sucking in the big ones, looked genuinely exhausted - but the very next play would back it up with a big break, good line speed or barking orders to take control of the set.

When we win he is always one of the most animated and when we lose he is always distressed. That is future captains material - leaving it all on the field and playing with passion for the jersey. It contagious and I know if I was a player that’s who I would go to war with.

I wasn’t at the game but I watched it on Fox
And I agree, he was spent but he never stopped.

That’s what it means, when Madge asks players to play for each other.

AD led by example
I loved what he did at Fullback, when he filled in at centre against Manly.
Young but powerful and determined.

Can not teach passion for the jersey and Adam has it.

Honestly the side look like they are responding as best they can. They care about each other and the coach. The more Cini’s we can bring in with good attitudes and to give the other boys someone to rally around the better. The spirit is there, they just need to build systems and execute.

Still entirely unsold on Maguire as a tactician though.

One thing McGuire is not is a tactitian.
Trainer, sure.
Coach, yes. Mentor, yes.

He is 100% not a tactitian. Sheens was the best tactitian coach we had, and that had really mixed results. Long term it did leave us underdeveloped.

You missed the most important before tactician and that is person management skills. Sheens A plus, Maguire No
