Alex Twal #206

[Harvey]

Our attacking structure needs to move beyond the under 6’s mentality of trying to get the fat encouragement award winning kid across the line

Api will feed him a pie just right
of the goal posts this year 💯

It was an off chicken pie and he promptly coughed it up
Sums up this club

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Sums up our club, would be lucky to get a run at most other teams. Plodder.

Peeps always go on about how solid this lad is but I think he is better than solid!! The last few games he has really lifted us in the middle period and got us going!! I think he is better than a lad that doesnt miss tackles!! his hit ups are immense and damaging!!

He is so underrated

Never misses a tackle and has been making a ton of metres off api and find a fast play the ball most of the time

An amazing game from Twal - possibly the best he has played. Ran for 173 mtrs 67 post contact. 15 hitups. 36 tackles at 100% efficiency none missed. And he did all that in only 55 minutes. Incredible game.

Api bringing out his best.
Looks fired up for a change.

Cops a fair bit of flack from certain users who like to trash everyone, calling Twal a "plodder" but he's a proper worker.

Trains hard and has a go, on the field.
Good to see him getting noticed for the positive stuff.

Hopefully a try comes his way soon.

He does plod. He’s just consistently plodding which has a place in any team.

 

[simonsatiger]

He is not a plodder he is a weapon!!

He was right up there with are best last night , we lose nothing when he comes on , and the one thing that u can be sure off he won’t miss any tackles

 

[bigsiro]

Last night's game he was great, but in all fairness he has been plodding for some time.
Shame he doesn't have runners going with him, which is likely because he doesn't look to pass.
He is tough and a tackling machine. When he runs hard like last night he can be an animal. If he just added offloads he would have a more complete package.

100% agree, much improved , even looking for offloads.

I met Alex at the member’s night a couple of weeks ago. He has definitively become a leader off the field at the very least & is a true gentleman. Great to see him hitting some strong form on the field & I hope it continues 🐯💪

 

[upthetigers]

He is just not a tackling machine anymore the last 2 games he has been great!

Misses one important tackle every few months, and today was the day on Sullivan. However, still one of our better middles most weeks and today no exception.

 

[Nafe82]

He just seems so strong, nearly always standing in the tackle, if he'd get a mistake free fast play the ball or keep the leg drive, just think he could be better.

Needs an offload, and someone there to catch it.

 

[stevied]

I think he is close to the most underrated, underappreciated player in the Tigers squad. He rarely misses a tackle and it's easy to not realise the total metres he clocks up each game. Recently he has run with more vigour and leg drive, making him a real force to be reckoned with. He does have an offload but I think he's been told to tuck the ball under his arm and charge forward. Nothing else. He should start with Stef on the bench.
