i've been really impressed with lawrence over the past two rounds. his scoots have been really strong and he has been breaking tackles though is yet to make a clean line break. while he looks to have lost some of the stuff that made him a kangaroo once upon a time i think he's actually been in...

He is up for grabs at the end of this year and boy would he be a great long-term buy. He's an 80 minute tackle busting, line-breaking machine, I think he's only in his early 20's. Im pretty sure he and Ben Murdoch Masila have close ties. I think they are from the same school/area back in New...

It's up on the Tigers website

Tim Simona will still have to clear concussion tests throughout the week but expect to see either Lawrence or Lulia (my guess is Lawrence) dropped should Simona pass those tests making way for Akauola on the bench. \ \ Akauola's spot is well-deserved. He's been in great form. I hope he does well...

they also kept referring to Akauola as "Bullock" repeatedly

no dissrespect taken. so what would you do if farah was out and luani was to replace him but couldn't play a full 80 at hooker?

I reckon if he's not 100% they might save him for manly at Leichaardt the next week. A win there would mean so much for the team, as well as the fans and membership numbers which they need. Given all the drama surrounding the tigers of late, a tough win at leichaardt against manly could do...

playing with a lot heart like they did against the bunnies will help. if they can win against the warriors and can turn it up again against manly, look out..

"if"….

i hear good things about akauola and innosesio. let's hope they give it to their big boys

Buchanan is a stats man but he just doesn't make enough impact with the 100+ metres he averages per game. If the current pack carry on like they are for form, i don't see him cracking it unless he finds a new level in his game. He'd be a decent replacement for Woods come origin time as they...

In his first year 2 seasons ago he had a handful of games and he was sub-pa. i remember being disappointed because he was so great in the other grades. then he had a breakout season last year and the rest is history :slight_smile:

If Farah is out, i'm gonna guess that Austin might get named on the bench and one of the bash bench will get dropped (my guess is Ava). Given it would be Luani's first game and match fitness might be question, and that Fulton is out, Anasta might slide into hooker to give Luani a break, with...

It's worth noting that Luani has been training with the first grade squad as a specialist hooker since pre-season. Compare this to last season where he trained and played as a 2nd row/hooker under Iosefa. I expect improvements in his game given that he's been able to train with the squad...
