Adam Doueihi #227

Gotta wonder what this dude is thinking at the moment, wanting that fullback and halves money lol

Current fullback and halves firing better than he ever has.

Huge depth in the halves

I cant see any place for him in the team even at 14?

3 bench spots to forwards and the number 14 to TDS/Simpkin/Bud

Yeah, he is in the poop. Should have knuckled down and focused on grabbing a centre position when he had the chance. It was his only hope.

Is anyone sure of his contract situation? I’ve heard he is off contract this year but also that he is signed for next. James Graham podcast said he is here next year?

He’s getting the chop?

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Or England.

Roosters are interested

 

[Fraze23]

I walked past him on Wednesday in the city. He's a big fella. Has a decent frame to build on. If I were him I'd be hitting the gym and trying to become a ball playing lock.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

His tenure here will eventually be seen as what could have been. Was captain in waiting. Injuries crueled him.

 

[Speed2burn]

no reason why he couldn’t be a decent ball playing lock. I’d say his #6 days are over

He’d wanna improve his defence.

Laterally his defense has always been suss. Front on I’m sure he could manage fine

One obvious reason is he is a massive cat in defence!

Don’t be alarmed, I’m not a massive fan of his, but if he’s under contract still he’s worth a shot at 13# in NSW cup

Yes injuries have given this poor guy grief , I think we may keep him but at a very reduced price , I don’t think any club will pay big dollars for a risky signing like he is now , but also we may just let him go and go risk free and get another player upgraded or purchased

 

[Bob]

do we need a 7 in NSW cup? As high as I can see his bread rising

Simpkin will be released and you have Bud ahead in the pecking order? How so? He still has everything to prove.

And Doueihi has nothing to prove??

Fair dinkum - he proved before his injury that he is not NRL standard... and now needs to prove that his body can even stand up to park footy after the latest injury!

Bud is contracted for 2025 - Doueihi is NOT!!

He's proved more then Bud, which is my point. What has Bud done to even be in the conversation looking forward.

2024 is the last year of his deal.

One game you are using for Bud....

Meanwhile in his 6 games prior to injury in 2023 Doueihi proved that he is simply NOT NRL STANDARD !!

His efforts were embarassingly weak - and in particular his defence was far worse than anything Bud has produced for us in his limited opportunites!

Bud definitely has more upside than Doueihi who was fully cooked before he did his knee again!

 

[Snidest 0]

The Doueihi reality through 2022 and 2023 is that he played in ONE win in the 17 games he played!

In the remaining 31 games played in his absence - the team has won SEVEN games!

Meaning Wests Tigers win/loss ratio with Doueihi in the past two seasons was 1/17 or 5.8%

While our win/loss ration WITHOUT the fraud is 7/31 or 22.5%

Given that he played over a third of the 48 games in 2022-2023 - this is a valid sample size and a true indication of how much of a liability he has been to our performances!

He has to prove that he can win games - or even just be part of a winning team - because he has been an Albatross on the side when he is available!
