Honestly if this is heart give me a team of zombies

 

[Tucker]

Our centres are both carving them up now.

 

[Batmans Parents]

Just remember that we had individuals, who are still posting on here, claiming we didn’t need Angus Crichton because we had Seyfarth.

Haha .. who was that ?

 

[Tom Shines]

nrl.com has him at 2 runs for 17m. The ghost of Adam Blair rises again.

He’ll be picked next week

BENCH AT BEST

 

[TYGA]

Seyfarth is a real goer. Hard working player and a good athlete at his size. Lacks game awareness, errors and bad defensive reads on an edge. Mason and Seyfarth will become excellent bench players in short bursts. He should not be starting at second row.

 

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

He has good scramble defence. His contact is getting a little better. Still missing heaps of tackles. Non-existent in attack although did have a hand in a try.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Most players just carry on when they cop a smack in the head and the claret flows....he seemed like he was ready to pass out and wanted assistance immediately

Useless...another long term signing fmd

I remember a few years ago, Sam Mcyntire walking off at half time, head covered in blood. He was in no hurry to get back in and get it cleaned up.

 

[Ron Brodrick's Spirit]

2 runs for 17m, one of the runs being from dummy half.

This tells us that either Seyfarth has the self-awareness that he's a liability with the ball or his fellow players have totally lost confidence in him and refuse to give him the ball except on pre-planned plays.
Either way we can't keep playing with 12 men.

On here the delusion remains strong with his zombie followers who want to give him "flowers" for effort.
That's like congratulating a husband for not beating his wife, it's the expected bare minimun.

 

[JC99]

There's a reason we signed KPP, a right side second rower

Benji knows Seyfarth is no good

What I don't get is why he's picked ahead of Sukkar at this point.

 

[boonboon]

I have been a Seyfarth booster because I like his effort but last night was one of poorest displays I have seen by an nrl forward ever

 

[Bellend]

Seyfarth last night proved he is not a starting first grade player, like the bloke is a goer but there is no end product that warrants the minutes he plays.

I have always said Seyfarth is a decent bench player and he is,the problem is we are starting him due to lack of a better option.If he is on the bench each week because we have a better starter much of the vitriol directed at him will cease.

 

[Fainu Brothers]

Sukkar please, big red bench or cup

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Seyfarth last night proved he is not a starting first grade player, like the bloke is a goer but there is no end product that warrants the minutes he plays.

He is a middle defender option at best anything else and he adds no value.

He over plays his defensive work when wider and it costs him and us often in other ways (positional, meters, lethargic, reset etc).

He does currently hold the record within the NRL as the worst meter gaining forward in the history of the game for minutes and games played.

We need to stop getting distracted from effort and focus on quality of the effort.

That kid has some ticka hey.
I remember we let go the only player who could tackle above his weight grade and I know for fact he wanted to stay. He is no superstar but a decent footballer you could rely on.

Non-existant in attack, except he crossed the line for us.

I see him crossing or being close to crossing and he seems to have that sense for the tryline.
That's rare in the front row. That's what we need in the front row.

Yes he moved in with that tackle on Papalii, but it's Papalii and he probably would have rampaged through if he did not move in.

Credit where credit is due.

 

[Needaname]

Well he was replaced with a Prop for the last 20mins of the game. Hopefully that’s saying something.
There was also a point in the game following the Tapine try where Samuela moved across to defend with Mason on the line, once we were back in attack the original formation was back.
Hard to say Seyfarth needs a rest coming off a bye but I think to the Bench is a change at a minimum.

Thought Twal had covered Papali’i he needed to trust that and stay on Tapine in my opinion.
