I wonder if we are re thinking our plans re Blore in particular and perhaps Seyfarth. I know it's a low bar but Blore has had a real impact of late so has Seyfarth, Blore almost looking like the best forward in our team atm in patches.

He was a star junior and as much as people vent against Sheens - he did say that he needed some “miles in his legs”.

I suppose we are seeing the benefit of playing consistent footy. I always thought he was an edge but is almost the new prototype being more mobile with ball in hand and great defensive technique- he’s a keeper!

He gives his 2 bbobbs worth. Thats for sure.

I rate Sean Keppie, he plays tough, is mobile enough for a man of his size and has a decent passing game.
My concern is how he would affect the balance of our forward pack as he’s a little similar to Alex Twal and Fonua Pole, can we afford too many similar type players in the one side ?
An extremely mobile tackle busting edge forward is more what we need as a point of difference.
Could Stefano possibly transition into a big, mobile, tackle busting edge forward, similar to how the Storm use big Nelson at times ?

Re. Stefano. Great question. Absolutely. Under a different coach maybe. Stef is the real deal.

Writes Phil Rothfield is all I need to see of that ’article’ 🙄

Then you should see the doosey he's written about player unrest today.

Peter Peters makes it fairly obvious who his source is for this news.

It seems Scott Fulton v Sheens / Benji / Farah in the battle of survival.

I wonder who the senior Tigers official is. Surely not Farah as he is very close & possibly still managed by Sam Ayoub.

I had a listen to that about 5 mins ago, taken with a grain of salt as it will be heavily Fulton slanted being Peters is his god father. Didnt make for great listening and seemed to confirm suspicions of a lot of people on here and in the media. My initial thoughts were the club official was farah but i dunno, but i wouldnt be getting Ayoub offside with him managing some of our guys in particular Bula.

Could it be then Ayoub V Fulton. And the victims - collateral damage - the fans?

Yeah possible seems like a lot of trouble to go through to get an average player, why would we even involve ourselves in that with Ayoub. We absolutely love imploding on ourselves.

Bullshit!!

Fair dinkum some people are gullible!

Im guilty of that from time to time Snidest 0.

Wait, when they sacked Madge they said they’d bring back the “fun”.

Turns out running a distant 17th is even less fun than running 13th.

Rothfield likes the word 'unrest'. Used it in 2021 to describe Madge and the players. Used it in 2020 with Paul McGregor.

Api did seem visibly pissed after the game though.

I'd be more concerned if Api was laughing after the game. To me, it showed he is emotionally invested and not accepting of the performance.

He's the recruitment officer for WTs. If he is close to players his role is to get them to WTs. As for Keppie, I agree with another poster we have Twal.

Twal is just a joke.

Twal is just a joke.

I'm not sure if you are serious. Twal is the epitome of a team player. Love his work.

Yeah, he definitely cares and I agree 💯

Please, just a joke about not scoring. That's it.

Chammas said on the footy show that three powerful player managers don't like the Sheens/Benji vision.
He also said the managers will take the good kids out of the Tigers if the Sheens/Benji vision doesn't change.
All three are apparently close to Fulton if he is to be believed.
