Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Early tip for round 2... Seyfarth will be our starting 13. Heighno & Robbie love him & Benji trying to mould him into a Yeo type.

Great news. Finally get to see him used properly. If he doesn't perform when his role suits his strengths then that will be it for him. Personally I think he will do quite well as our middle link man with a high workrate. Good to see the coaches actually recognising players strengths and weaknesses and using them accordingly. This allows Kit or Faagatu to come off the bench and slowly groom them.
 
The gap between Seyfarth and Yeo is the length of the Flemington straight I’m afraid. Kind of like throwing Wakeham the 6 jumper and trying to mould him into Cam Munster.

How do we know though? Seyfarth has never been given the opportunity to play this role. IMO Yeo is wildly overrated. Eisenhuth filled in for Yeo and played his role just as well as Yeo does.

I think Seyfarth will surprise a few as a 13. His ball playing is very good, he is super fit and doesn't miss tackles. Efforts off the ball are great too. Needs to improve his go forward of course, we all agree on that.
 
I can just picture Richo doing the rounds of the membership base in Westem Sydney with our packages in the back of an old Ute.

Not tied down properly, stuff flying out.

He’s breaking the speed limit a bit, windows down ( no air conditioning) sucking on a warm melted diet coke slurpee.

On his way out here/ in the panther player catchment, he’s got one eye on big young blokes walking past for a surprise offer of a train and trial.

Hurry up Richo, I’ve been waiting for weeks. Step on it.

Don’t stick your fingers up at people wearing other NRL jerseys either.

I might have to patrol the garden to keep thieves and members of other clubs away.

Set the cat on them and as they laugh, pull out my trusty blood stained axe from behind the red bin.

Working from home for this, it better be good.
That's a lot just to protect yet another hat and scarf that won't get worn.

I did think this was a possibility with Pole rumoured to be moving into the impact role. Seyfarth is a high work-rate, high effort type who will ensure we don't rush Laulili'i, and to a lesser extent Matamua and Fa'agutu.
 
Doueihi's upper body is looking fit .. View attachment 9936
and is ahead of schedule for his return .. !!

Considering how long he was off his legs it really shows his application to getting himself right which is a big positive. So often you see people come back over weight etc after 1 let alone 2 significant injuries in a short period. Well done to him, let’s hope it translates.

There's really no harm giving him a chance, I think pole provides more impact as a bench foward. There's like 3 juniors that have a mortgage on the 13 jersey, may as well try and strike gold in the meantime. Said it before reckon seyfarth is the type of player that improves marginally every year until his body gives up. He will leave everything out on the field and if you put some time in with him you will get a very solid first grader.
What I have seen of his ball playing hasn't been terrible
