Absolutely you would like to think this would happen much more regularly.

I believe that too and have suggested he may be moved if a suitably good replacement was signed. Regardless, Seyfarth is nothing more than a desperation fill-in as an edge forward.
It started when Luai went back to 6 and Talyan joined in on the left edge... Samuela and Luai both started playing better... The 3 of them formed a great combo... I thought Bula chimed in on the back of this.
Earlier in the year when he wasn't playing that well I was convinced he should move back to the middle...
But I think he's more of a weapon on the left now with Luai and May... If he continues on the trajectory of last year, 2026 could be his year

100%. I remember his first few games for us were in the middle. He played really well, missed few tackles and ran hard.
He's also really good on an edge though and has some skill about him. Now that he has Taylan May running on his outside, I feel like he will offload more and create more line breaks. The number of times I saw his hand free this season with no one to pass it to - those opportunities could have turned games in our favour.

Again ....see lots of comments on players and their attack .....if they could each lift their defensive completions by 5 % ....we will be in a far better place come the end of season 2026
didn't, we pull that 5% thing this year or last ,not many looked sold, poor darlings, lasted about 3 games.
Hope they keep it ,its the minimum amount to lift at worst

It's GEL
One thing that has consistently pissed me off is the changes in our team. Particularly the backs.
You get a Center, a 2rf that know their positions well and the spine knowing that they are there... they will score.
Easts, Manly and quite a few teams know this well. Get good combinations going between players.
No look passes work when you don't need to look to see who is playing next to you!
It's not even new to this club. Farah and Fulton had a move called "bread n Butter" Farah would pass out of dummy half knowing that Fulton would be looking for the ball.
Seyfarth can do this. He has had a poor 2025, but he was also a starting 2RF for most of it. The role was too much for him. However as a bench forward he isn't a bad option, and an option who has played along side AD, Api and the team.
The more combinations we get going, the higher up the ladder we will travel.
