LIVE GAME Trial 2 V Roosters..

Live Game Discussion
Its a team sport , there is a game plan too execute , im not knocking Rua he has alot to like about him and he is clearly trying too get himself a top 30 spot , but last night I thought he bombed a chance by ball hogging and was hooked straight after .

You have to try and get that out of his game. I reckon Farah was never as could as he could have been because of the hog plays.

He looked good though.
 
I think the club should have a word with Shawn blore dain Laurie and say we understand you have friends in the Penrith team but if you want to go to the game and watch them live please where a west tiger polo or dress shirt so every 1 knows your fully committed to the tigers

Just stay home and watch it quietly.
Don't post about it on IG.

I don't like it.
 
If it's speculation that's fair enough but he also has a partner he's been with a while here in Sydney and could be loving life here for all we know, guess that's up to the club to figure out and not us forum dwellers

Direct player swaps are rare yes, one a year is not much.

There is absolutely no sense in him staying at the club with the players he has in front of him and the players coming up closely behind him, No matter how hard or for how long I look at it.

Unless he turns into a top 5 hooker this year... Which he is lightyears from doing.
Time will tell, But I'd be shocked if he's here for 3 more years!!

That's what happens in trials mate when someone's trying to impress with limited minutes, don't dissagree but thats the reality of it.
 
Wests tigers are playing again tonight, gamble and walters going good v cowboys
 
Tamou, JO and Liddle should be out of our starting. They stifle our defense each time they touch the ball. We have cattle to replace them.
 
If you watch his highlights reel especially the game where he gave Panthers fullback Edwards the big don't argue to score you'll notice he's well balanced when running with a fair bit if toe.
He's solid in D and really looks like a football player.
He has an aura about him that reaks quality. I've been watching footy for over 40yrs and I believe I can pick a good player when I see one.
Normally they stand out like dog's b.
It's a big call but watch this guy force himself into the side.
I agree with what your saying I said that when we signed him the only downside I saw in his game was a couple of times last year when he turned his back on the attacking team and they came down his side to make a break or score but that is an easy fix just a young guy coming into grade
 
We looked a million times better when Hastings was running the show and Madden was running the ball. If Newcastle seriously are willing to pay the majority of brooks contract then there is absolutely no reason we should be keeping him here. We didn’t look like scoring when brooks was on. Hastings and madden worked so well together. It has to happen, please let him go to Newcastle.
Obviously you missed most of the game, as I thought Brooks had a great game, and the Hastings/Brooks combination went really well. Madden had some good touches in last 15 minutes. That was Madden's best effort is first grade from what i've seen, he needs to keep doing that, and I hope his defence has improved.
 
Player Passes give you those sorts of spoils....
Mixing it up with the punters...

They looked happy to be there supporting the boys.

Shame the boys got outclassed everywhere on the field. No direction without Cleary... Luai sucks.
 
In what way though.. the best you can do is release him without paying any freight on his contract..just opening a spot on the roster..

Wouldn't imagine he would be on big coin..

All of that... Not many young, half tested hookers about though - Especially in Qld.
Would give us some bargaining power in a player trade I feel.
Give a club extra motivation to push a decent player our way, In a position we're not as stacked in.

You could say the exact same for Liddle though, and he's contracted for less time and he probably feels more deserving of regular first grade considering his age and time in the game

Good chance Simpkin/Liddle plays off the bench while Korisau starts and Simpkin is probably going to be more comfortable doing that than Liddle
