I don't blame him. He is far more consistent than Stef.

I concede your point re the quality of the rest of the pack - and I didn't forget about that. It should, however, make zero difference to his output if he's playing in the best pack in the comp or for the WestsTigers. He will never be 'top dog' in the ranks of front rowers until his mindset...

I've read many of the posts here, but not all. Obviously there are some on this forum supporting Steff and others who want him gone. That's all good - it's what a forum is. FWIW, I think Steff has above average ability and can be a damaging front rower on his day. But 'his day' is never against...

Well, we are not expected to win, so no pressure on the boys. Just hope they rip in and give it a red hot shout. Anything can happen in a 2 horse race, but this one looks a hurdle too far, me thinks. Make that 3 hurdles too far.

As another poster said earlier, on his output from the last 2 games, he is definitely in the second tier of props going around at the moment and so worthy of the $850K per year. But that's 2 games! Overall his output this year has been very poor. Conundrum for sure. I would prefer to be keeping him.

LOL - maybe that's because Latu hasn't been able to get on the field! But I agree with the sentiment that Samuela in particular has been an absolute standout.

Not sure he is lazy. He's just not capable of doing all the things he needs to at this stage because of his size and conditioning. He's still a baby. I'm sure he's working hard and if he keeps at it, he'll could be great.

His effort has been better the last couple of weeks. I think he is a good footballer who will get better. (Second year syndrome and all that).

We generally struggle against big aggressive packs. Don't like our chances.

Seyfarth is super fit. I like him coming off the bench. Adds a lot of energy.

Isn't that what Reggies is for? He looks way off the pace to me.

Yeah but it's a stupid post.

A couple of the line breaks right through the 'middles' was more concerning than down the edge. It was atrocious defence!

Shout out to Reuben Porter for yesterday's performance. Certainly Steff earned the accolades and it was great to see young Jordan Miller in action, but I really thought Porter did his job very well without any fanfare. Just a good, solid and 'old fashioned' type of prop forward. Speaking of...

All these head knocks that Alex Twal is experiencing has to be a major concern. I can see an early retirement looming!

I don't blame Galvin for not agreeing to an extension. He will want to see how we are travelling by this time next year I would think. So it's up to the club to put a competitive team on the field next year that can show considerable improvement and point the way to the future. If this doesn't...

Yeah, but you can blame him for his overall poor performances. He wants big money but is playing like a run of the mill middle at best. He needs to step up and earn the big bucks.

my wife when she moved over from England - before we met obviously - travelled around Oz with a girlfriend in a shitty Mazda 1500! And made it! So, moral to the story - books and covers and all that. And that was 40 odd years ago when the roads were even worse than they are now. Off topic I...

He was fined, however, which indicates it was deemed foul play.

It's definitely the latter. Mikaele is offloading to no-one most of the time. Tuilagi is still sluggish in defence but the men either side of him fix the problem. None of these guys mentioned above would be any different in our team now than they were when they left.
