Chad, I’m struggling to get past the reality that Adam only made two passes in the entire game on the weekend
Yeah I heard him say that on the radio. I had a distinct feeling disgust. What a fool. I was embarrassed for him.
There is a deep insight in this comment.
The Tigers are a club that for years gambled as a way of making decisions.
Benji as coach with zero experience is the best example. But there are loads of others. They gamble that payers with a crazy amount of injury will have a better run at the Tigers. Reynolds is an obvious example.
You even see it with previous hero’s and juniors versus Faatape. Faatape (apologies spelling) played solid in his early appearances. Instead of letting him stay in role we dropped him and gambled on others.
Second to that we have a history of shafting people. It started with Sheens years ago. Then it was verbal commitments on money not followed through, then it was trying to push people out who were on contact (clashes included).
We then wonder why players shaft us.
I don’t remember players shafting us until we shafted Sheens. At least not like our recent run has been.

I think people need to realise that personalities in the media are incentivised to say dumb things likely to provoke a reaction for engagement. Pay no notice of the rent-seekers and youll be happier for it.
Dont know if this is the case with Tallis or he is really that dumb. Either way he is irrelevant

Lobb isn’t explosive quick over 20m but does wind up over 40m+. I think Willett is similar.

Tevita Pangai Junior,
On field for first 24 min, and showed more than Steph does in full game.

There is a bloke in the Facebook group who is delusional about Stef’s ability, he reckons Stef is far better than Collins in every facet. He got quite offended when I said Stef isn’t even in the top 10 props in the game. Then he wanted me to name them, I named 14 and could of kept going
It depends which Stef we are talking about as it’s a big difference between his best and his worst games.
When he’s at his best, playing with aggression and running the ball with purpose he is a top 5 prop in the game, problem is we only see that a few times per season at the moment,

I played for The Entrance Tigers when I was a has been from Balmain u'23s. Spook Spencer was coach. Toughest years of my life. Stood toe to toe with Kevin Hastings at Wyong and ended up with 16 stitches. Knocked him out in a charity boxing match 6 months later. Runner up in 2 grand finals. God I hate the central coast.

Unfortunately I think that 20m speed is way more important. Very rarely do players get in the clear to for long distances in the NRL.
I think both Lobb and Willett are going to be too slow to be NRL wingers. I do think Willett could become a good rangy back rower if he grows into his body.
I think this will be close, I believe Turuva is coming to compete for the FB position. Olam's Knee is holding on. I think Bula would be great in the Centres.

Lobb has the acceleration of a fully loaded semi.

Taane Milne just destroys any chance of a last minute draw with a horrendous conversion attempt. Pathetic.

Not as bad as dummying to an open Alex Johnson before completing a double movement straight from the textbook.
