Man he’s been at the club 18 months. It’s not long enough for him to form deep rooted ties . And whilst yes , Ihes telling the truth , 5 years and a premiership down the road , and loyalty reciprocated by the club ie. external of benji , will lead to loyalty . He’s been shafted both of his...

He didn’t though . The faithful guys nailed it this pass episode when they said the truth . “Benji ball “ was originally built around Galvin . Then when he left , AD stepped back up into the role , and the rest is history. AD best asset is running between the 3 and 4 man , and long kicking ...

There’s no difference . Each has a job to do . The only allowance is on contact and losing ground . But actually initiating first contact with your shoulders , and giving your teammates an opportunity to help you effect a tackle . Sorry but there’s no difference . Seyfarth dropping off tackles...

I just reckon he was split . Also the Italians put a shit tonne of pressure young kids to all declare for them if they have a choice ie. play for us or you have no future in Italian football . But with thier mediocrity now in European football , and the fact he wasn’t picked despite this , they...

What ? Do some of you guys have a lobotomy , when your favourites are/ arnt playing . Seriously if AD was on the field , we would have put 30 on them . And I’ve been a huge critic of him over the years . Especially defensively ( see a pattern here ) . But I’ve also always said he has origin...

I don’t mind the 6 agains. Where I get frustrated is inconsistency . Of the 7 6 agains we received against us at least 3 were for offside . Not being back 10 . And if they were offside , then I’m ok with those decisions . What I’m not ok with , is the team spent large chunks of the game...

I knew it ! You’re not even looking at the other side of the ball , and shoehorning a concept to fit your narrative. Every single one of those tries would have been scored if AD was at half . This is exactly what I’m talking about . People did it with Brooks , they did it with / against Bula ...

What ? Mate it’s nrl , there’s enough hours in the day for all of the above. The idea that they’re mutually exclusive is a fallacy . I’m not asking for Gillmeister or Nigel plum here . I’m asking for when you make contact you stick . And if you do get beat , much like Api , you’re forcing him...

?? He’d be coming to play right centre .Latu and Javon are the Long term halves future.

Missing tackles and then chasing them down is a weird way to reframe like you just did . I find these types of conversations mental . So many of you are so desperate to have a prototype half that you’re willing to literally not see any of the person flaws .

I think you’re right . I will say this . What he has done is caused the fast forward button to be pushed on thier implosion . I think with the way the team was built , basically panthers lite , it would have eventually died a slow death unless they got thier juniors to populate most of the team...

He goes fine . He does his job . Makes his tackles , but needs help with bringing down big bodies . If your point is they’re one and the same , then you’re wrong . Madden needs help always . Rarely completes one on ones, and is caught arm grabbing way more than an nrl player should be .

The biggest difference was getting our numbers right in defence. Only once did they make a break because of this and it wasn’t a numbers issue , rather Seyfarth has lost all ability to play long minutes on an edge . All thier points came from really poor defensive misses . Jock is horrendous...

Not a single 6 again today . How does that happen in modern football ?
