OFFICIAL Adam Doueihi #227

[jirskyr]

Clubs gunna try and pretend none of this ever happened

Weak.as.pee

Your comment is interesting - I am reading all these comments but I don't have a huge emotional reaction to this Doueihi situation. I don't think there is a clearly right or wrong way to handle what AD has done. I personally think AD has handled it poorly but I don't think there's a simple solution for the club - the next steps all have pros and cons.

For example if Benji names him in the side this afternoon it almost looks like capitulation. The Blake Austin video you posted was bang on. If he makes an example of AD and puts him in reserve grade, it makes the line in the sand clear but the team's already hugely underperforming, I worry it's just flogging a 2026 dead horse.

I don't think it's necessarily weak or wrong to try and move on. It's possible that AD had a strongly emotional response to the situation and it's possible he said some things that are fair. Without being there it's hard to speculate.

Another perspective is; If Benji plays him at seven, does that imply that Douehi has some kind of dirt in Benji or the club that they want to bury?

Nothing wrong with having a strong opinion and being deeply unhappy about things at the club, but he didn't just walk out on his team, he leaked a bunch of dirty laundry to the media and threw Benji and the club and his teammates under the bus.

Benji was very diplomatic publicly and protected Adam - Adam has shat all over that.

The only response is to drop him for walking out. It's not how you handle things. regarding Adams grievances, the door is open to discuss any time he likes with or without his manager.

The Wests Tigers don't entertain me on the field, but at least off the field we can always guarantee drama. No need to watch MAFS or anything of the sort when you can open up any news source and find us doing something stupid there.

True, but win or lose, Id rather watch a football game

 

[Telltails]

Well they all look very happy at training today - no signs of any angst between players.
So let's see what sort of response that gets from the media given they are the ones that are driving the narrative

Exactly how it is going to look.
Douehi back at training is the beginning of the end for Benji. Douehi at 7 would be coaching suicide

 

[tigertragic]

All we know for relative fact is

Douhie was selected to play lock off the bench

Douhie left the talk with Benji and refused to play (not in the right frame of mind - reminds me of the Mitchell Moses /Galvin mental state play by I Moses previously)

Douhie got Moses on board

There was a meeting on Monday and Douhie was back at training

Everything else is unsubstantiated media dribble

Based on this and the Douhie supportive media dribble, Douhie can’t remain at the tigers and should have been sanctioned and or terminated immediately

nitpicking I know... but if this is the level of intensity we train at, then the on-field performances explain themselves.

Glad to know it’s “all smiles” while the fans sit through yet another season of total embarrassment.

Easy to take a short clip out of context, but we are careening down the ladder at a rate of knots and they are having group hugs.

 

[Speed2burn]

So the latest is Luai has been supportive of Doueihi and even offered to step down so Doueihi can play 6.

lol the circus continues

Yes, yet the results on the field will be there to remind us all that it did happen and is still happening.

Yeah he does .....don't tell anyone though ....Benji can't coach .....shhhhh

DT Reporting that Adam is set to start at 7... our club & Benji are both weak as piss !!!

What a mess

So Proszenko and Nicolussi have the teams list at 2:30, and can break this? Wild

Tigers name Adam Doueihi at halfback for Eels clash

The No.7 is set to come straight back into the Tigers’ starting side after standing himself down from last weekend’s game following a disagreement with coach Benji Marshall.

I think that’s taken out of context. He said that in round 6 or whatever when, madden and AD were carving it up and he offered to come back from injury from the bench or reserve grade.

I think some commentators have just used those quotes again now. In one of those “technically correct headlines”

Just guessing though.

Crocodile smiles at training today

“Doueihi has earned an immediate recall”. Earned…Earned…..Earned.

Must have some juicy dirt on the club

 

[hsvjones]

Andrews deserves another go this week at 7 and would have AD 6 and Laui at 14
