Weird people don’t see it

I worry these wins are masking that issue

And idk if we can play with this intensity the whole year

So can’t rely on AD every game

We need patience and structure and we should be toweling teams up on the score sheet by way more.

Should’ve pumped Brisbane and the bunnies too!

"I worry these wins are masking that issue".

A Tigers supporter worried about wins!! Surely that's a good sign.
 
3. Turuva was sensational tonight. Best game in WT jumper
2. Twal
1. Luai. -- Chimed in as a 7 really well at the critical moments when he comes in from the right hand side to let Adam run, and his combination with Samuela is lethal. Idiots on here will only focus when things get flat on the right. He iced the game for us.

True but he has a point. We don't want the forwards really good work gp to waste. Attack is still clunky in the red zone. Douehi is improving. Luai needs to stop the sideways movement. Forwards like May need to just get a quick play the ball to spread it.

Reckon we have left two tries minimum in the last 2 games out there.

His combo with Samuela only produced one good play tonight. 3-4 other times he joined sideways with no momentum for the team. The 2nd half he went better with Doueihi on the right. No one's doubting he has talent. For 1.2 million he needs to do more. Hopefully next few weeks together and he bring his game up another level.
 
Turuva - Reliable out of yardage and gets us going forward. Amazing finisher as well. Had a great game tonight. When things were tough, he put his hand up all night. Great performance.

Sam Fainu - He's everywhere and barely makes mistakes. Creates a lot of tries off the back of effort plays.

Doueihi - What can I say...there's points in him. Particularly impressed with his efforts in defence compared to previous seasons. Probably could have iced the game with a final pass to Bula, but I give benefit of the doubt around the time he had to catch and pass.

Api - Always clever around dummy half and gets our guys coming onto the ball.

Twal - Still not sure if he's a cyborg, but continues to deliver each week. This week was a huge physical effort in attack and defence.

Luke Laulilli - Come a long way and he's almost first picked on the wing behind Turuva now that we'vehad a chance to see all the wingers get a shot. Very strong out of yardage and hard to stop near the line. I'm sad to see him go. Great talent.

Terrell May - they tried to make a statement by putting hits on him and he absorbed it all. A true top dog of the pack.

Taylan May - really powerful ball running. Incredible player.

It's out of these guys for points for different reasons.
 
Tough call to pick the best three & it’s great to have a tough choice.
3. Turuva He took so many hit ups & seemed to be everywhere.
2. Twal. He was outstanding 57 tackles 0 misses & that pass to Roycey.
1. Royce. His try was a thing of beauty, that step on Weekes & his speed was not something anyone expected from the big fella.
HM. AD He had a great game but I really think he needs to consider passing more often, he still has a tendency to be a hog.
Terrell May had a huge game, sorry Terrell but Big Roycey stole your points from me, I just couldn’t leave the big guy out after his try.

'3 - 4 other times' means you're not seeing the rest of his game.

First try he comes in from the right to get Adam running one on one to score.
Second he's passing deep in the line to give Bula loads of time for his short ball to Taylan
3rd he takes out 3 players with his amazing straight run and pass to Samuela. (who had an amazing pass of his own).

We scored 3 tries with Luai calling shape and organising at first receiver. I love that our 2 pivots can swap things around in both positions. He earned his pay packet this week.
 
3 AD
2 our pack
1 Luai

Adam has been good off the back of our pack. But I hope the hit from wicks and the comment from his coach resonates with him. We keep leaving points on the table because he holds the ball instead of passing. Probably another 12 points in that game.

Turuva all day he got smashed all night did the most dirty hit ups Aaron Woods would be proud

The most dirty hit ups tonight

Second Twal hard work all night

Third AD and if someone took the blinks off or if he was more aware about his team mates two more try's

Aaron Woods wouldn’t know what it’s like to run like that.
 
3. Doueihi
2. Turuva
1. Twal

Terrell outstanding.

Sam classy and strong

KPP strong

Laulili powerful and looking more conformable.

I've gotta say, I think Turuva's physical effort last night was the best individual effort ive ever seen from a Tigers winger. His powerful carries got us out of so much trouble. Sometimes 2 runs a set. He was an absolute beast. Doueihi got my 3 points because of his influence in the scoreboard, but omg Turuva was pivotal

100% 💥👍.
Ads ,he is playing out of his skin ,but yeah could probably let the ball go a little more, he should draw the defence in and pop the pass instead of the big dummy...teams will start to work him out otherwise.
Awesome win ,all an all dominant team effort ☝️🐯

Yeah I was fairly happy with Luai's game last night. Still needs to play through the opposition a little more, but he looked sharp and strong. Oddly, I actually think he looks a little better when he drifts over to the right
 
3 Jarome
3 Twal
3 AD
3 Turuva

I thank the punting gods every day (the only gods I believe in) that we are blessed with Jarome.
Api couldn't transform this club on his own, he needed another winning voice.
Jarome was brilliant last night at halfback.
Sure he wore a 6 on his back but he played 7.
