I can totally see a scenario where Tyrone May is our back up half/Number 14 next year

If either of those options are real, then we are doomed

I would be making a big play for DCE, although I don't know why he would consider us to finish his career.

6. DCE
7. Latu

Moving onto the following year, Latu shifts into 7 and Andrews goes to 6. Allow Latu to learn the trade with an experienced player guiding him.

Man putting two young kids together for an entire year is going to be disastrous. With all due respect, it is not like they have Panthers quality players surrounding them and a gun pack.

27' is looking worse by the day

It’s literally the season prior wtf are you even talking about ? There heaps of halves off contract . Nikorima for example could do a good job .
If AD gets the ball anywhere in the middle third of the field , you can pretty much kiss goodbye any chance of getting good ball as an edge player . Even when we were winning he was simply holding the ball and finding space between the 3 and 4 man . Anything any closer and the play would just die .
I get the loyalty from the Lebanese community . It’s awesome you’re all backing your own . But if you want the wests tigers to be successful it will never happen with AD in the halves.
Reconcile with that all you want . And when AD retires , he will regret not just this situation but the fact he never moved into the forwards . Because if he does leave and go to say the bears for example , he will be in SL by 2029/30 . At best he will get the Jackson Hastings treatment , because no coach will give him leverage like we do at the tigers with any of our juniors . As soon as he under performs he will be 19th man or playing against Newtown most weekends . And that will be a real shame ….

I'm from the Lebanese community and have been saying AD is not a 7 since the game against the dogs last yr when he won it for us almost singlehandedly and everyone was singing his praises. He is a good player and can play a number of positions, however at this stage he is not anywhere near elite in any one position. You may be able to unlock him at 6 if you have a clever 7. Unfortunately he is not a 7 and he more likely fits into that 13 role. Its funny as i have been saying he is just a older slower less fit version of Galvin, and its likely this will end up being the same issue with Galvin in 5 years time if he persists with his belief that he is a half.

💯 agree. What’s pissed me off the most about this is guys on here have polarised the argument. Made it binary . You’re either with AD or you’re not.
I’ve said it 100 times . AD if he bought in would be an origin lock . I said it 5 years ago when he played for Madge and couldn’t make a tackle … and was told to jump off Luke brooks penis ….
I have real belief in him .
But his behaviour yesterday was unacceptable . Especially as a leader . Regardless of the details re - it should have been luai .
Once again I’ll say it . Not the dummy spit , not the voicing it should be luai it’s not fair “ , not even the walking out on practice ; all perfectly understandable behaviour from an emotional guy .
But the running to the media , the holding the club to ransom stuff about an instant termination . That’s the issue. And any grown man with a lick of self respect and dignity knows this to be the truth .
At the very least he will never ever be a captain of the club . Much like Aaron woods , he lacks the emotional intelligence , and simply can’t ever be trusted . Especially as Brett kimmorley confirmed yesterday this is the second known time he’s done this .

Choc backed Marshall 100 percent and really poor behavior of Adam. With his dummy spit put heaps of unwanted pressure on Andrews. Jerome much better outside Andrews compared to Adam for first game. and with Jerome leaving early too backed club to give Latu and Andrews a go next year. They reckon Moses behind it all.

just listening to Hoopers podcast on Fanatics tv..feelings aside of the POD, Hooper was told on Wednesday night about Adam, so it looks like it was pre arranged. Its a great listen today, Choc Watmough speaks really well on the pod today about it

Choc is quite possibly the worst poker player I’ve have ever played against. And although I would love to take his money again, there is no way I can listen to his dribble.
 
I’ve been wondering since the AD situation first dropped whether this was all about trying to get out of his contract so he can get a big money deal at Perth. Perth did just loose the half they wanted from Souths and this feels like a very Moses way to get out of a contract.
Plus AD would know he’s not in our long term halves plan.

- benjigate , i have also heard adam has requested a release, issac moses contacted the club, which is why its leaked so quickly, adam feels like jarome should be dropped and adam should play , believe shaun m stepped in and has told adam to take a week off believe twal or seyfarth was the other team member who had words

- saukuru signed a dev deal next year with parra

opinion, benji should never been our first grade coach, the roster , the club , the man management is too much of a responsibility to place on a rookie coach

What a surprise
Issac Moses involved where a player wants to break their contract
The sooner AD is moved on and Moses is boycotted the better
 
I hope the club moves the players on who sided with Adam, poor culture. If it is twal and seyfarth it’s not that bad, seyfarth is shit and way overpaid he’s worth like 200k, twal has been good but not worth creating rifts in the dressing room over it
