Defs worth persisting with. Hopefully he is positive about the move and bulks up a bit. Doesn’t need much extra, just a few kgs and time spent on the middle.

One thing I didnt understand, especially at the start of the game, Doueihi was positioned outside Latu. The whole point of a ball playing lock is for them to play the middle and free up the halves. As the game went on they got Doueihi inside Latu more, but it seems we didn't really have a clear plan of how we wanted it to work.
Also this crap of moving Toa around the past few weeks is horrendous coaching. We cant get a simple game plan working, so why completely complicate our right side?

The next Golden Boots, the grandkids will be talking about the day the great AD kicked the Tigers to victory against tremendous adversity (ie their own incompetence) in front of 40,000 Tigers fans in 50 years from now. At least that will be Moses' story for a commission extension.

That did not go unnoticed. Im sure he will leave if he gets a decent offer somewhere else.

I honestly don't understand our attack.
We are confusing ourselves more than the opposition.
AD has that Yeo bug in him about being the linkman and probably our coach wants him to but he has to run straight first! You're not really attracting the D if they don't see you as an attacking threat first. Run first!
Based on performance we have better centres May, Toa and Makasini on potential alone. Better fullbacks Bula, Turuva. Halves Luai, Fainu.
Tigers need to sign a 13 and it won’t be Douihei. Horse has bolted. AD is a serviceable starter who can cover slot if positions well. I’d sign him but he will have better options. Titans, Cowboys, Dragons he would likely start at.

Yup it was weird - he needed to play lock who linked up with the halves, not a free roam role to do whatever he liked. They need to put structures around it, AD can't just be another half otherwise it's too predictable.
And yah, not quite sure what's happening with Toa? Him linking up with some of those plays looked awkward and uncomfortable for him.
Who's fault is that? We have a large body player with a propensity to gain weight and do not strictly monitor that. it's the fault of training and conditioning team. We are not a professional club. What other club would allow this?

Think we made it very clear to him that his time was up at WTs...thats when Moses got involved..and nobody was too concerned
But he's been a revelation over the past month..plus his goalkeeping..
And were getting sellers remorse
He’s playing with one arm for a while now.

Players looked so flat. Literally and physically. Standing still when they accept a pass. We need to run onto the ball and play the ball faster like we did against the Roosters a few weeks ago. For me, we need forwards with some ticker. Pole managed a quick PTB which lead to Skelton’s late try, but mostly we just get dominated.
