Alex Seyfarth #232

Unplayable.

What's interesting is that it took 16 minutes in a match for coaches to see this. His size limits him and he's also a poor tackler, nevermind his very limited attacking runs.

I don't get what they were doing in the offseason to not be able to identify it. In the stgeorge trial it was the same. Most here saw he can't defend, how did it get to this?

They rolled right through him until he HAD to be pulled.

He has the build of an edge player. He’s too much of a string bean to play in the middle. Opposition forwards think Xmas has come early when they run at him.

It took me all of 10 seconds to see us in defence waiting in a line for Canberra attack. It was groundhog day. No enthusiasm. No one moving forward. But that could be me. Just dumb.

Trains hard though.

We got rid of Joe Ofenhengaue and retained this bloke. 🤮

Its not just you. Nothing gets under my skin more than seeing our side standing back 10m waiting for the attack to come to them. Every single tackle you can take at least 5 metres from an attacking team. it just takes desire and a will to win. Each new season I pray for this defensive juggernaut to emerge, but ive been waiting more than half my life.

First thing i said today at kickoff was "let's see our line speed". Same as always, non existent. I just don't get it.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

No heart...thats the thing. No feeling..
No love.... no passion

Barely nobody willing to hit hard in defence.
I reckon we could sign Jaz Tevaga right now if we wanted him and he at least tried to defend with line speed and hit hard.
We need more than just him, but he’d help in the short term.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Would he?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Is he even playing first grade?

Yep I said that too. We don't have anyone trying to nail a guy. Just flat out smash someone. No one tries.

Poor old Joe got dudded deluxe.

Absolutely. Mind boggling decision!

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Everyone is waiting for Luai. Good luck with that. Benji. You got your man..

 

[Vicious]

No that’s the point, we have no possibility of signing someone straight away if they are already playing NRL for another team.
Plenty of very good players stuck in reserve grade for other clubs that are much better than our NRL starting players.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

I agree. Lets play the reserve grade players. Love your thinking. Outside the box. Jack Gibson material... if they want to come..just they want big money to come to us..
Thats the thing. They.want compensation

 

[Aceshigh]

1 run for 16m.

And we have F-wits on here arguing for him to keep being selected. Unbelievable.

He certainly is an enforcer 😂, probs against the reserve graders at training

No idea how he's still selected for first grade, never mind starting.

This is not a new problem.

Back on topic.
There are no words that adequately explain how out of his depth Seyfarth is in an NRL game.
