David Klemmer #264

Gun signing , done usmproud every time he runs out for this club
call him up for SOO now , he deserves it , better than most going around , Freddy needs to get his head out of his arse and get back to grass roots footy , origin calls for hard men , hello Klemmer calling
 
David Klemmer so far in 2023

13 games
50 mins per gams
Ave 152 metres
26 tackles per game
1 missed tackle (99.7% tackle efficiency)
15 offloads

Just from watching 16 weeks of footy, I haven't seen too many props matching run metres nor tackle efficiencies than Klem. That is what you call a true footballer that knows their game accordingly.

Freddy selected Hudson Young again lol. For what? 20 minutes from a back rower like Game 1? Win or lose, Freddy is fried.

Freddy you don't know your job as you think you do.

Punt him 🥾
 
Sorry but I had to start his own thread, it needs discussion.

So many Tigers supporters look at the stats on paper and support Klemmer. Good metres, great tackle efficiency. All looks good.

For those that do, please go back and watch his contact in defence today. Yes he makes every tackle, but at what cost? He goes in so soft that the opposition land in their front and gain great momentum.

As for attack, its Aaron Woods all over. Good metres but lands on his back for a super slow play the ball.

David Klemmer enforcer? Hahahaha.
NO.

Unfortunately we don't have depth to not have him in the 17, but he needs a rocket and needs to be dropped to the bench.

Agree. On attack as well the start of his hit ups look like he is running in wet concrete.
Unfortunately our depth is horrible. When he is fit I’d be getting the Fainu brother (Sione not Latu) into the forward pack. Twal start, Klemmer bench and Seyfarth left right out.

I have been arguing with my lot about this for a while. They are now starting to listen.
 
Tigers need enforcers. Fainu brothers look up for it.

Klemmer needs to be better. We already have Twal playing the no-mistakes game. If he can't step it up, Twal is cheaper...
 
I defended Klemmer, Twal and Uto before. No more. Stef fires up when the game is done - how about doing somet
Enough is enough with the softness of this club. The fact the energy and effort from 2 kids in Fainu and Galvin stood out so much is testament to the fact we've been fine with mediocrity too long.
Big job for Benji and Richo.
 
Klemmer & Twal offer the same service.

I don't think we need both in the team.
Happy for Twal and Stef to start.

I like Twal more than Klemmer.
I'd let Klemmer go and aim to upgrade.
Xavier Willison would be the #1 I'd want.

The difference for me is Twal's first contact in defence is much better and he has better leg speed to get quick play the balls. While I agree they bring a similar service, for me Twal is much more effective and important to us.
 
I wonder if Isaac Moses (Klem's manager) is trying to get him out. In that stupid Buzz column today, Buzz hinted at talks of a swap between Lomax & a reputable front rower. I reckon him & The Mole get a lot of info from Moses. FYI Moses manages Klemmer, Bateman & Galvin.
