Swap him for moon ster

Being completely honest and realistic.

1- shake up in coaching staff. Madge is staying that’s sorted, then we need new and innovative assistants to bring new ideas and networks to the squad.

2- 3 quality signings, I’m not talking $1mill players. I genuinely just want 3 starting players signed. Making our 17 much stronger overall.

I don’t want squad fillers or bench players, I want improvements on current roster spots.

3- Some accountability from the head office staff in someway shape or form.

All very realistic before the start of the season.

Zero tries.

All heart though.

Rock of the team.

Averaged almost 40 tackles a game at 90% plus efficiency.

10 line breaks, 4 line break assists.

6 tries, 4 try assists.

I am not sure what more people expect of the dummy half

…in his first full season.

He has now played 63 games. He is no longer a kid. Its time to poop or get off the pot.

40 tackles a game is pretty standard for a 1st grade hooker.

10 line breaks in 20 games? Unimpressive.
4 line break assistsassists in 20 games from a hooker. Poor.
4 try assists in 20 games from a hooker. Poor.

You asked "what more people expect of the dummy half". I expect crisp fast accurate passing from the dummy half, preferably from the ground. I expect this FIRST before any line breaks or tries or anything. This did not happen at all. Almost every game there were shockers along the ground, behind the player. This is SUCH a big part of our forwards getting a roll on. If they have to pause or stop to tak ethe pass whilst 300kg of nasty are about to bash them, your go forward is doomed.

Liddle was poor this year. No way to sugar coat it.

Agreed. He has always been slightly over rated by Tigers fans.
We need a huge 2022 from him.

In our top 3 best performers of the year.
Without him, we looked much worse.

If his year wasn’t spectacular then guys like Brooks and Nofo shoulda strapped the beanies on and not even bothered taking the field.

This forum ridiculously overrates him. From what I saw, he’s a poor man’s Ben Barba

Yeah but you’re a fan of Nofo and he’s woeful 😂

That’s not a nice thing to say about our leading all time try scorer.

Charlie Staines scored 6 in 2 games…
Wouldn’t call him good either.

I doubt he’ll end his career with nearly 150 try’s like our Nofzilla

Maybe more forward ran metres though.

Yeah, he is a bit frustrating when he crabs, but outside of Stef, there isn’t a better ball carrier in the side.

It’ll be a good battle in the pigs.

He has probably seen the workrate of props like Packer, Tamou & Musgrove & thought, “I can do that”.

I can’t stand the 6 again rule, there was absolutely no need to speed up the game. I don’t mind the emphasis on head contact and the 2 point FG however the 6 again rule is rubbish. The old fashioned grind is all but gone with the exception of the odd game here and there. Nothing more annoying than a 32-30 scoreline, give me a 12-10 any day. I honestly don’t understand the need to constantly be changing rules when the game wasn’t broken.

My pick for player of the year. Closely followed by Daine Laurie. Both showing what Madge says we are trying to build. One using size and momentum the other speed and agility. Both gutsy players.

Thought his defence improved this year. In our current squad id be starting him and blore on either edge and dumping Luchiano the gap leilua

Thanks @HUGGGARZ for doing this and putting it all together. The end result looks about right, despite some joke 3,2,1 posts along the way. Personally I like the current format as it always ends up being just about what we see over the season. Thanks again for doing it.

@rozelle_rudy said in Maguire post match comments insanity?:

I’m one who has been a Maguire critic. Regardless of his success at other clubs, he’s taken us down the ladder. Maybe his style and ideas just don’t work at this club.

I don’t think they’ll sack him now. They’ll give him another chance to get the squad he has built working.

If 2022 is shaping as another bad season, he’ll go before the end of it.

And as I pointed out in another thread, that’s just the start of repeating the cycle all over again.

“Negative,” Ikin said when asked if they would make the top eight. “I’ve got them in the bottom four.

Ikin may be right and we do end up bottom 4, but I wouldn’t put a high probability on it.

The thing is, most of us who follow the WT closely believe we have upgraded our squad in quality and depth. Moreover, I believe our current squad is significantly better than the 2019 version, which came 9th.

So, how is it that we can have a better squad and still go backwards on the ladder ? (Assuming we don’t have a bad run of injuries.)

I may be a bit too simplistic in my reasoning here, but if we improve our squad and still go backwards into the bottom 4, that implies that at least two of the teams that finished below us last year have improved their squad by more than us, and I just don’t see it.

It also implies that the teams that finished 7th – 10th have improved their rosters at least as much as us, which means that they can maintain their distance above us. Of those teams, only the Titans look to have really upgraded their squad, while Newcastle and the Sharks’ hold on the 8 seems pretty tenuous to me.

It seems to me that if most of our senior players play to their ability and our younger talented squad members kick on the way we hope and believe possible, then we have every chance of making the 8.

There are a lot of “ifs” there, but I can’t believe we will go worse than last year (as long as we don’t have a horrific injury toll).

SURPRISE!!!

Mbye will carve us up

I suspect he will circle the game in his diary. Noticed he wasn’t in the captains run team photo, couldn’t wait to get the hell out.

@boonboon said in keepers:

Tom Mikaele. When most today made ni effort he made 140 meters and 33 tackles.

A few handling errors here and their but he makes more meters per run and per minute then any of our forwards and has had a 93% tackle effectiveness.

To his credit, his ball security has been good the last couple of games.

Lee will probably give him a 4 year contract and he will go back to leading the error count.
