Looking at jersey 22 in our first grade side is there a chance Mapap could debut for an injured To’a? Can’t recall seeing him in the 22 previously but I could be wrong.

fair call. Yeah Terrell is a weapon. Over the off-season more power specific training and he’ll be elite class!

Interesting take. Funny. Stats say otherwise. In the Roosters game, his supposed outlier of performances this year he had 6 hit ups out of 11 receipts for 62 metres In the Warriors game he had 11 hit ups from 15 receipts for 90 metres the second highest hit up tally of our forwards.

I’ve heard players speak about the threat of Samuela out wide with the ball. He is being marked and well, we need to start using him as a decoy close the the line. Now if only we had a hard running centre that could capitalise on that play…

No he found his way onto the opposition’s tip sheet.

I don’t think that was that try. It was Clarke in the position of Boyd when To’a came rushing in. That was a try by one of the outside backs or Harris Tavita.

It’s funny, I actually saw very similar outcomes of both games, in both games we were completely out muscled but we still managed to stay in the game despite showing any real spark in attack. I think I timed the first tackle where we put the warriors forwards on their back in that round 4 game...

It’s each of one way, half a dozen of another. You could say we played more expansive in the first half of the year. The one difference was having Lachie Galvin in the side, is it a coincidence that the side isn’t playing as add hoc as it did starting the season without him? Another factor that...

I hope it’s something we address in the offseason.

That’s my excuse. We were thrashed I feel wholly and solely however there were chances and we crushed them on the spot and that could have made the game far tighter. Still if the objective is to win a tight game at the death we haven’t shown any aptitude to be able to achieve that this year. But...

And made about 5 crucial errors that when on the front foot could of kept us in the contest.

I think you said it in your opening point. It’s all about the chase, an adjustment like that has to be completely broadcasted to the team so they are on the same page. I agree our halves are not thinking on their feet that way its hard thing to do on the back foot and I personally don’t have the...

Don’t you have more chance of winning a tight game then 1 that you get blown away in?

It’s not really a mega deal though. 5 years ago it would have been and 5 years ago there was players on 1.2mil contracts. Now it’s pretty common to have your best player on over a mil. I would admit tigers had to offer about 300k on top of what a top 4 team would have offered and about 200k on...

Trust! He Cleary didn’t trust Luai to cover Boyd and or put the stop on Niokora.

Have you ever noticed what happens after an attempted 40/20 kick that doesn’t come off? The opposition get a heap of easy territory very quickly. That’s why it is such a good skill to have in the bag. But the better option would be to kick in field rather than attempt a 40/20. One play that...

So on that note you’ve wrote him off completely? He was poor this week, personally I think he should of been rested with us playing out of the country after a 4 day turn around.

With his speed, leg drive aggression and energy would it be too outrageous to consider TMay (the Tiny variety) as a future lock, potentially making room for big Mak to make the left centre position his own in the near distant future?

You’re not understanding the context of the article. It is a ranking within a club not a ranking per position. Bula is outside our captains the next highest earner in my opinion maybe at other clubs he wouldn’t be.

Yes you can’t step forward unless you are immediately playing the ball in the same motion, the key is to also get up from the tackle moving forwards as well. I’d say because we are so dominated in the ruck that we don’t have the option to do it that way. Pole is probably the only forward that...
