Not a fullback imo.

Overrated and inconsistent.

I think he can be. If it doesn't work out he moves back to centre. He scored 10 tries in 12 games last season in a Broncos team that punched way above their weight.

He's 22 and and will only get better.

I wonder why @THE_POM didn't post this here ...
Hope he hasn't been scared off with the stupid pissing comp going on with some on here..

Anyway - Great news if comes off and can only help us with Bateman joining so he has a fellow countryman..

Did someone mention "Sayfart"
Bid red is all effort but not as good as plugging up the middle as Alex imo.
Alex just needs to get some body movement, he's like a lamp pole....hurts if you run into it but easy to sidestep.

They're both Alex 😆

They're both Alex 😆

Both of Lebanese heritage 2 haha

 

[tony soprano]

Surely you jest .....

I guess at least seyfarth has scored.

I've seen a couple Lebanese red heads.

I still fail to see how Twal is in our best 17. I’d trade him.

Twal has something to offer. He'll give us 60 minutes a game and in that time he'll make metres and he'll defend exceptionally well.

The problem is how many middle forwards do you have on the bench ?

Starting:- Klemmer, Stef, Joe O
Bench:- Pole

If you have two middle forwards on the bench it's Twal up against Blore & Matamua.

He'll get plenty of game time if he isn't injured because other middle forwards will be injured.

I think he makes the team initially but it'll be interesting how he goes over the course of the season.

Yeah bro @tony soprano you
can still tell their leb though 😆

Seyfarth has that Dundas Shamrock
Irish/Norweigan blood in him

 

[innsaneink]

I think Twal needs to be there to stiffen up the "softening up period"

Been some time since this was a thing

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Seyfarth would be on a modest contract. He is the type of player needed in every squad to fill out the 30 player roster. Remember his game against the Broncos when I believe he made 50 tackles and more than contributed to the win.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Not every player needs to be a superstar, you need guys like Twal in the team.

Yes and no, seems like a good guy but he’s very pedestrian.
Maybe he’ll take a medical retirement and get a new position in the pathways group. Had involvement there already.
That might be a possible outcome.

Yeh I watched that, mountain man effort.
I reckon it depends on the type of game that's to be had.
If they are going to try and take us on up the middle then Alex would be good.
If only he had another dimension to his game, like an offload.
Papa has that.

I don’t think Farnworth would understand what JB was saying. He’s only a countryman by heritage not location.
Maybe The Pom has taken offence at his critics. Someone on here told me on the qt that he can do that sometimes.
I hope he rejoins us at some stage. Looking at his stats he has a lot of support on here. Low postings but high reactions says it all.

I read how he has Italian decent.
Weird how he didn't get a spot
in the Italian team at the RLWC

Seyfarth does have an offload and he did it in the Broncos' game. He probably was encouraged to use it.

Defending our 1st set

Negative ....negative ...negative ....just wait until your next WC game ..then you can whinge all you like

Just reading Wikipedia says he was a full back in junior footy.
Also born in Burnley and didn’t come to Oz till after he finished school so maybe he’s more English than I thought.
Although having heard JB interviewed before I still think there would be a communication gap.

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

no harm in trying. I doubt very much Parra would release him.
given they have him contracted for 2023 with a PO for 2024.
They didn't release Steph or Papali'i early.

No, it’s only us who let contracted players walk with no compensation our way.
All they have to do is scream and yell.

Herbie would be awesome
