Adam Doueihi #227

[Tiger Stripes]

Benji set the standard at the start of the season with the comment that if you’re not all in then there’s the door or something similar. I recall Benji telling AD in the off season that he was the 7. I think AD is drawing a line in the sand and perhaps challenging Benji on his word and integrity (standards).
I don’t believe personally that AD has permanent hold the 7 jersey regardless of what Benji said but perhaps the Luai situation has him asking questions as to why he was moved when he remained loyal?

No harm asking the question.
But the reaction to the answer exposed the real Doueihi.
Not good for Andrews or the team.
IMO, Today's game could go either way. They could go hammer and tongs OR implode. Fingers crossed.

There’s many people with different opinions, getting rid of AD is maybe a bit early , because what happens if javon , had a crap game and it looks like he is not 1st grade standard, ( not going to bag him on 1game ) but just throwing it out there , we have a terrible go with our kids coming through, so maybe see how things pan out before pushing players out , and remember he is on a small contract

We have scored 24 points or something over 4 games ..I got no problem with shaking things up there … the question of who makes way though is a different one and not as straight forward to me ..

Cancer spreads if not cut out, no other club would accept what he has done regardless of any ability he has.

If we let him back we get what we deserve and prove the culture hasn't changed one little bit.....

He new what he was doing, why was he doing laps of concord anxiously before "confirming Benji's team selections"

What he did was premeditated and Shat on Benji , club, teammates and sponsors in the biggest possible way....

If he had concerns he should have raised them privately within the 4 walls of the club.

He dogged everybody and if he was a man he wouldn't even ask to come back......

Should Javon have even been named this week ? NO on Benji
Should Doueihi have been moved to lock ? NO on Benji
Should have Doueihi reacted the way he did ? NO on Doueihi
Should have Twal and Seyfarth reacted the way they have been alleged to have acted ? NO on Twal on Seyfarth
So many bad decisions being made by supposed leaders of the club ....can we ever move forward successfully as a club without accountability being taken by someone
Every year it's something different .....but you never see it happening at the top clubs
It's really embarrassing

Your first 2 are incorrect. But bcoz we’ve had some respectful banter, I’m gunna say why.
Point 1; JA is in form, if you’re gunna pick a bloke to debut in a team that’s getting beaten don’t wait. It’d be nice to have the pack humming and none of AD’s antics that same week but we ain’t that team. My example to you is Benji. Debuted at 18 round 20ish came off the bench early too. We won, but his second game we got flogged. Two years later with that experience he throws flick pass I still watch probably twice a year. Yep just watched it again it’s gold.
Point 2; yes he should have. Bcoz doobs is a shite hog of a half that is only any good when the pack is dominating and he can hog it and use his big frame to score. Otherwise peaheart turnstile. That came across very opinionated but I implore anyone who doesn’t agree with Benji’s decision to move doobs to lock, go and read @Jolls breakdown in deep muff dive thread.
Personally I’d have him in Ron’s Cup.
I find it hard to understand how people can still support Doobie after all the times he has stuck the boot in, try to hold us to ransom, throw tantrums, and then go and sign up with Isuk Measles. But I try not to be biased.
How’s the fire ants going up there?
And the toads, and the jellyfish. 😎 Any cyclones today?

 

[the enforcer.]

Sorry if someone else posted. I wonder if Doueihi has been asked to change positions while playing a game , and refused. This whole situation has a stink about it.

 

[Buttface]

Pretty happy I’d say. He’s getting an opportunity that he’s worked hard for and without the usual fanfare.

Yeah I hope so.
He deserves a good day out, hopefully he can focus on his routine and play well.

 

[happy_tiger]

Why shouldn’t Benji have named Javon ? He’s killing the cup . What else can he do with 2 of the top 4 halves unavailable .
Why shouldn’t Benji have moved Adam to lock ? He’s 105kg and 195cm tall fffs . the guy is Huge and not doing a good enough job in the halves .
In actuality it shows how much Benji values him , because any other half would be wearing the magpies jersey . But Benji changed the team to accommodate him . And it’s still not enough …

Look mate .....I don't think any of our juniors should be getting blooded at this stage ....no matter how well they are going .....we are destroying our juniors ....look at Makasini .....Lualilli etc
Doueihi needs shoulder surgery .....playing at lock is just dumb

 

[Telltails]

Agree.
I wonder if Doueihi watched the Souths game last night. They spun the ball to the outside backs all night, scored tries and won the game!
Our backs only get used from our own 10m line to get bashed. Never in space or from an attacking position.
Doueihi is our handbrake for any attacking options out wide.
Wake up Doueihi or move on.

Pass the ball AD

I think that's what has got his knickers in a knot.

Doueihi actions were wrong .....but playing a bloke needing shoulder surgery at lock is dumb
As I said in another post to Lestronge.....I wouldn't be blooding any juniors now as we are wrecking all our junior talent too early
Both of those decisions are Benjis .....

That’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it … others have different opinions just as valid ,,,,

Doobs needs shoulder surgery does he?
Is this fact bcoz I have only read it as spec on the forum for why he plays shite.

And all I can say to that if it is true is, Bloody Nora. I’m trying not to swear.
Get this injury prone cancerous cretin out of our club asap. He is nothing but a selfish pine riding money suck.
We haven’t destroyed Mak…..yet.
And Lualulii is just a midget who’s gunna struggle to stay in first grade for the rest of his career.

I hope Benji keeps making those good decisions then.

 

[innsaneink]

What if all this is a smoke screen to take talk this week off Javon's debut? 🤔

Naah
Douehis name.is dirt now
Thats one hell of an extreme smokescreen if it is
Javons buying douehi beers for life

I'm not a Doueihi fan either .....but asking any bloke that needs shoulder surgery to play lock is dumb
Why should Andrews be expected to deal with the crap this team has dealt up since Rd 8
Bring him in next year to a fresh start with a healthy side Rd 1 2027
Why should he face whooping we are going to get today .....just messes with his confidence

 

[innsaneink]

The irony of all ironies here is Benji threw a tantrum himself when Potter benched him. He played, but it was the beginning of the end of his first stint at the club.

I think this highlites the mentally weak culture thats been around the club for decades

Still next levels between “refusing to play” and “throwing a tantrum but still playing” ..

An NRL season is one hell of a grind. It’s easy to come out and look like a million bucks in the first couple months while the marquee sides are finding their feet. Post Origin is when you separate the men from the boys. And like clockwork, we always get found out as boys.

Hard to disagree with that G, it's a reoccurring theme and the truth hurts, soft as butter at the business end and always some internal trouble rearing its ugly head.

They have to find an answer to get the season preparation right so the team doesn't peter out and look at why so many injuries are happening if a solution is possible.

After last night it could be hard to find an answer with all the nasty injuries across the teams, make you think this years champions will be a team with their best players not on the sidelines.

 

[innsaneink]

We should all be pumped and excited to watch the Start of a promising next big star for the black orange and white, instead we got fans complaining, senior players complaining etc... We should back the coaches decision, the players and fans ..🤬 I hope Benji is proven right today and justify bringing in Javon in

Whatever happens today wont prove or justify anything re Javons promotion.
He has already done all he needs to do...he has earnt this already.
Theres no guarantees today. We are long outsiders...he may have a great game...or he may do it tough with the rest of them
I wish him well.

If Doobs needs surgery again he should do the respectful thing and retire instead of extorting money from us.

No way, if you ask me “do you wanna wait till next year to play NRL when we might be better or play this week even though we might get flogged?”
I’m playing and I’m taking the fk over too. JL better get out the way and do not over call me. I’d be bringing the ego, the tude and the riz and I’d be shoving it down their fake Viking throats.
But that’s just me I guess. 😎
I hope Jav has a day out and Doobs never plays for our club again.
