Alex Seyfarth #232

I think he has too much Kyle Lovett about him. Dominate junior but ultimately was too small as a forward and too slow as a back.

Some people write off young blokes far to early.Yes its possible he is a complete dud(most never reach their potential)but i wouldnt give up with him just yet

I'm not trying to be negative ..but even in some of the players we've been unimpressed with they've shown us something ....haven't seen anything on field yet ...I can't believe we let McIntyre go ...he has so much upside compared to Seyfarth

I've seen Seyfarth play through SG Ball. Imo he is a second row forward. He played his best football in the second row, with a very high work rate and a good turn of pace in the clear. I'd like to see him given a go in the second row.

Respectfully Paws ..if he can't cope laterally in the middle 3rd ..he will get eaten alive on an edge

Very few players come through to the NRL without being found out in some aspect of RL. He needs to work hard and from what I have read he does. I believe a forward of his height, stamina and good pace can do damage running wide of the ruck especially with the ability to unload, I believe he will be good for us and was good in ISP.

Apart from learning to read the game ...getting speed either flat line or laterally is probably the toughest things


And the one thing that would help him become better laterally would be reading the game quicker ...give yourself time and not being reactive
 
Is he that small? I’ve seen pictures of him and he’s looked massive. He’s listed at 194cm tall and 100kg so he’s not a small guy.

There’s no downside in signing him, dirt cheap, has shown he’ll do well in reserves and has the potential to become a solid first grader. Was thrown in too early, it’s hard to make impact as a young forward in the Nrl.

Only a year deal so if he doesn’t improve we can move on from him.

He’s massive dude . He just doesn’t have the muscle mass yet . That really can take until youre 23-25 ish to really bulk up , especially for us anglos .
I had high hopes for him last year, I too watched him the year before in CC cup, and he was dominant. I didn’t even notice McIntyre was on the field just for reference .
I’d say , hes seen , that some of the things that made him dominant in lower grades , Or his deficiencies not being exposed, won’t fly in NRL , and will adjust accordingly .

One thing is Seyfarths favour, he definitely is not too small. He has a big frame, much bigger than Packer.
 
Agree with Tiger5150.Madge knows what it takes to make a good side.Storm-huge forwards,Souths when he won premiership wih 3 big poms.Easts fell short because they were missing.You need the big boys up front,Seyfarth is big and getting bigger.

I always thought he was a backrower. I don't always agree with trying to turn these types into front rowers. He just doesn't have enough size to dominate the middle of the fiel yet. Put him on edge and he might be a bit more effective.
 
Have we become that disillusioned as supporters that as soon as anyone does anything good we must praise them and apologise for every saying anything negative

Keep the apologies coming.

One for each so next week we can have the TAKE BACK your apologies threads.

No apology from me. I said he was good. Big mobile and has an impact because he is a different type of prop.
