OFFICIAL Adam Doueihi #227

Its better to not have senior players than senior players who are not good for your culture.

He's shown he's not a good role model for the kids coming through. Imagine this guy telling you stuff when all youre thinking about is that he did one of the lowest acts without getting any punishment.

Adam doesn’t have a spot for me
He won’t be in the six or seven
Twally owners the lock spot and by daylight , nobody in our team gets close , Brailey helps if twally needs a spell
Latu and Andrew’s need their chance but I would still bring ina genuine 7 even if off the bench swapping with Latu if needed , just until he gets those games under his belt with no injury

I don’t think we could afford to carry another half on the bench with Brailey looking likely to be our 14.
As I see it Latu and Andrews either start the game or they both play reserve grade.
Don’t worry we will know in Vegas,
Because it will all come down to what position they play Doueihi.

Yes, the 'spitting the dummy' episode was very poor and not good for team 'culture'

However, could he contribute to the posititve culture in other ways, for example, I've heard he is a very hard trainer and meticulous with his preparation, not just fitiness but skills training and his approach to getting over injuries is very good.

We don't know the full story of what goes on within the club so I'm more worried about his contribution to the football team. AD has shown he has above average talent and skill then most players, he just needs to do it more consistently.

I think we can't afford not to give someone like AD a chance, even if he is a d*ck, if he fails then bye bye.

That’s a fair assessment for mine.
Despite the dummy spit ahead of the Canberra game and his lack of nous when playing as a proper 7 this year, if he didn’t play this year, we would be sitting here with another spoon. He almost single handedly won us enough games to avoid it.

Hate it or love it, our best games for the past 2 years or so are when AD played in the halves and played well

Not sure what the future holds.

Can I jump in early O and say I’m expecting him to start at 6 or 7 ?

Absolutely.
It is a really weird situation. As a footballer he is one of our best but I don’t know where he ends up next year. No real long term position for him.
I’d start with Madden and him and set the kids the target of dethroning them both.

I saw enough of Latu in the last 2nd half to give him a shot 1st up next season if the body stays sound through the summer, the attack changed for the better when he came on.

Take your pick for the other half.

Latu does change the pace of the game and attack when introduced mid game. Can he do this from the opening whistle? Not sure.

Yeah, it's unknown territory but it's his 4th year with us next season, time to find out, send him over to the USA hamstring guru to improve his chances of staying sound.
