OFFICIAL Alex Twal #206

[Merlot]

I said it in another post. He's the new Skando. A true stalwart.

There is a strange mental toughness you get as a forward from a few seasons of only winning 4-6 games a season and somehow coming out the other side. Skando had it, and I feel like Twal has got it now. He's 28 and he knows his job. It just feels like he's at that age where a decent pro can have a couple of really good and consistent seasons in their prime.

hope your right ,Skando didn't blossom for long ,just when it counted

He’s always had the ability to offload
From what I’ve seen he’s been told in the past to just do his job and reign it in.
Hopefully we can now see him play a more natural game.,

Another offload for The Giant Sloth. 🦥

His 1st half was some of his best footy I’ve seen him play. His 2nd half, let’s not talk about that

 

[Batmans Parents]

I could live with him being in the team if it we weren't always giving him the ball on the 4th tackle. It is the most boring, predictable BS we have in our arsenal and it accomplishes nothing

Even in the 2nd half - just that one drop really when he had been back on for 5 seconds. As you said exceptional 1st half - was the best forward on the field from either side in half 1

I don't have the heart to rewatch but think he was exceptional but for a crucial error when I think the game was still in the balance. I was still confident until they scored that set

It’s a running joke of the game - we hand it off to Twal late in the tackle count like he’s going to do something with it.

Why is he always there - it’s been 4 coaches and 100 odd games…
Get out of the way Alex!!

 

[hank37w]

Must be approaching 150 games.

Coz he must be guaranteed a first team starting 17 spot. He tries hard but just won’t make any stand out plays, I call him the new Joffa.

Is it a tactic to generate a quick play the ball for our kickers? Idk I haven’t dived deep enough into it

I thought he had a good 1st half none the less

He put in last night, I was fuming with that mistake when he just dropped it cols that led to Walsh setting up a try, though one mistake shouldn't determine his whole game, he does a job, he's a good fill until we can find someone better.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Alex went well. Still finding his role. Could be the next Ben Galea.

 

[batboy]

Could be the next Ben Galea.

In a couple more years,
He may well be like Ben Galea (Retired)

 

[BrissieTiger67]

He caught a great wayward intercept on the try line

He doesn’t normally make mistakes, usually too pedestrian to do that.

He’s always had it in him, I’d like to see him unleash!

First 2 minutes.

I love this guy … he’s no star but always gives his all.
