OFFICIAL Adam Doueihi #227

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
Mate if Peter moussa who’s notoriously conservative thinks he’s right to go , he’s right to go. It’s not park footy. You can’t force someone who’s injured to play . The rlpa have strict guidelines against it , not to mention if the guy suffers a career ending injury , you don’t have any insurance because it’s voided because of negligence .
Also his injury is a dislocated shoulder , popping it out usually comes from hyper extending it , reaching out to score ,grab someone etc. I’m not a physio but I think the risk is less about the impact , but more about the volume of work . They’ve obviously as a club assessed it’s fine . We have a good medical team here , very respected . Benji would have and has a duty to run it by Peter prior to making the decision .
 
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
I think most fans are excited to see what Javon can bring and aren't upset that AD isn't playing half. We are upset that senior players keep hijacking our season and taking a dump on our club and coach. I hope Javon kills it.
 
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.
I wonder if because of the lack of depth, the injuries we've had, making us play guys out of position some for longer minutes, if the guys are just physically fatigued and mentally burntout. I cant remember the last time we had a roster
Where we could rotate guys to give them a game off here and there.
 
Just hypothetically… if he says he was in the wrong, it was all an emotional reaction and is now extremely apologetic for his actions .. do they still push him out the door?
Personally id give him the benefit of the doubt and move on, for all i know his missus may have walked out on him that morning. He might be battling depression. He would be told in no uncertain terms though the doors always open if theres an issue to discuss in private, but a stunt like tgat again, theres another door he will be shown. Though i cant blame anyone who says to just punt him either.
 
Whats dumb is suggesting he can play one position but not another due to percieved reguired shoulder surgery...i know one is.more taxing than the other in regards to defense but i thinks.its a silly argumemt
This is where the reasoning doesnt add up innk, cause Benji was going to have him defending in the exact same spot he does at 7 and was going to push Andrews out side him to the centres in D. 🤷‍♂️
 
All this BS about his shoulder is complete garbage. Once you do your shoulder there is no further damage to be done.

Tiny did his twice before going for surgery on the third time and not once did he dog contact or refuse to hit with his shoulder. AD is cat that has never been any good defensively.

KPP made him look good until he got injured, now KPP isn't cleaning up his mess AD is bog average defensively again......
 
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.
Well yes. If you shoulder is so bugged you can’t play lock you should think about giving it up. What’s next, a tackle quota like baseball pitchers have pitch limits? “Sorry guys that’s my 15 for today…”

This is his 2nd door

Would it hit the media like it did if anything like that was happening?
 
just read some pop up 2min read thing ,SMH reporting Adam was ok about playing lock ,doesn't want to break his contract , will be at training monday,.
Peeved that Luia should have been moved out of position ,and AD didn't want to be the fall guy for the clubs woe's ?
 
I honestly can’t be too critical of Doueihi’s behaviour given the circumstances. The club has set a precedent with Marshall and Farah doing something similar which resulted in Sheens leaving.
Another example was given by Noddy this week when he was coach involving Doueihi.
I thought this was exactly the reason Richardson was recruited?
Isn’t Pat Richards Head of Football?
Doueihi could simply be a victim of precedence?
Not how I read it

Welcome to the 7 jersey son.
 
Benji does not shirk the tough conversations

Benji to Luai -
I don’t think the Batman venture is working and I’d like you to go back to your normal game at 6

Luai no problems team first

I think we need to talk about next year and the possibility of you moving on early to allow our young blokes to make their way up

Luai ok, surprised, but it’s business and team first

Benji to Adam -

I’m going to play you as our ball playing lock this week so I can give young javon a chance his been killing it in cup


Adam no your disrespecting me I’m going home

The difference between two players supposedly playing for the same team

Goodbye Adam in my opinion

If that is not the most self involved reason for dropping out I don't know one.
Apparently his team mates that supported him thought we needed him to play in this game - he wasnt dropped he chose not to play. How do they feel about that?
The whole story just exposes him further. Own your crap AD on and off the field. You get plenty of credit for what you do well but you got plenty to work on before you become MVP in any team.
