No way this roster is better than Ivan's or Madge's. Let alone light years above in talent. Remember Ivan had Teddy and Moses. Madge had Marshall and Farah. Both of those coaches played the most frustrating, losing football I have ever seen. Which is not too different from Benji. At least...

I want Benji to succeed, truly. He bleeds for the club. He’s green, he’s learning, and I want him to grow with us. I want the fairytale. I know I’m not alone in that. I also want him to have a proper roster so he gets a fair shot and can be judged fairly. But right now, he doesn’t have that...

A dozen? By my count it’s 6 or 7. Luai, Api, Terrel, Turuva. You could arguably count Bula, Pole and Sam Fainu. The rest haven’t proven at all that they should be anywhere but reserve grade.

And that’s a stretch. Practically 10 of our first 17 would be in most team’s reserve grade! We will only ever be a top 8 team with a top 8 roster. Maybe hooker, one front rower, one winger and one half are covered. That’s all. We should be looking to upgrade everywhere else.

Problem is we don’t have anyone in our ranks. Need a bucketload of recruitment.

Yes the rest of the team are bog average. But Luai hasn’t contributed anything individually at WT to warrant any praise.

The coaching is not visible at all. But Jack Gibson himself wouldn’t be able to magically make most of these players first graders.

“come back”?

You’re joking. He is our best player. By a country mile.

Agreed.

I was so excited when we signed this guy. He is the biggest star we ever signed and still think it was an unbelievable coup to get him. But with the first season nearly done, he has been entirely underwhelming. He isn’t a disaster, but because of the hype and the price tag, unless form...

Badly.

How did the bunker confirm the second try when the play the ball was rolled? I rarely blame refs but this is some bullsh!t

Skelton having a shocker.

Latu 😠

Great tackle Twal on Cleary

Makes me think of those bars that have tap versions of espresso martini or other cocktails and still charge $25. That really irks me. If you’re going to charge that much, at least make it from scratch.

Look our starting forwards today include: Twal, Seyfarth, Sukkar and Douehi. Miles off a competitive pack. We don’t have an established back 5 or a halves pair with chemistry. And we need an 80% goal kicker. We need to recruit way more than just KPP if we want to be top 8 IMO.

If we are talking about going out dinner / experiences: Went to Olympus the other night. Thought it was fantastic. Always partial to Cho Cho San - Delicious. Thai Pothong is the family go-to for Thai. Old special occasion favourites are China Doll, Spice Room.

Hope so. Today would be the day for Luai to break the shackles.
