There’s something endearing about him not having scored a try

Or not offloading to a support player steaming through with the line wide open when we’re behind by 2 points with 10 seconds remaining in the game

We have players who can steam ......

What game Tony ....

I was just being sarcastic because he doesn’t know how to offload ... I was just running a scenario where that would be shown up

What about the last game at Cambo against Manly. Alex pushes off a would-be tackler around half-way, charges up field, steps inside Turbo Tom, who comes again, and as he is tackled, offloads to Mbye to score under the posts.

One of my favourites.

Sorry ....I'll buy you some credits for your sarcasm meter

I was just browsing Fox Sports Lab and noticed that Twal made 0 errors in attack last year. That’s pretty impressive. Yes, he’s more cautious with fewer offloads but you need pretty good concentration to achieve a stat like that with no errant play the balls, no passes dropped etc. Especially impressive given big minutes usually result in some errors from fatigue…Stefano’s stats also surprised me with only 3 errors .

That right there is why stefano is miles ahead of mikale

I do like Twal I just wish he had more offloads in him but he’s a solid defender and tackler if more of our players tackled like him our defence would be much better

I wish he would pull off a bone rattling tackle

We might see some more fire once the bloke can get off the end of season nudie run!

Welcome to the forum new boy....

Alex is one of the least of our problems. He is a dependable rock, safe in attack (error free) and defence (very few missed tackles and most are effective).
Put some flashier players around him, he does a good job for the team.

I love Twally. Mine was just a joke Happy. I agree, one of the first picked.

 

[innsaneink]

Some footwork wouldn't go astray... Needs to keep adding to his game

 

[tig_prmz]

Just because he's one of our best players right now doesn't mean he can't improve. He has a lot of improvement left in him.

That’s one thing I believe Melbourne do very well. Before slater retired remember him mentioning parts of his game that he was working on. I also believe it’s why some leave there and don’t go so well.
