Alex Twal #206

[Telltails]

We need to keep talking about Twal. His performances deserve consideration for selection. If players like Max King can be plucked out of nowhere last season Twal makes him look pedestrian - with ball in hand and in D.

Exactly! Twal is offering far more than King did but he won't shift Yeo as a lock. He could sneak into the prop rotation. He adds value with his reliable defense as well as his improved running.

I agree, something really likeable about the bloke. Honest, hardworking toiler. No fanfare, just does his job.

Twal never delivers less than a 7.5/10 overall and in defense I would say never less than 8.5. Whereas Stefano can have dire games where he goes completely missing and perhaps plays 4 -5 games a year that would be origin prop quality 8-9/10.

How this Wests Tigers cult hero went from meme to machine

For years, Alex Twal was best known for the things he didn't do but, after helping the Tigers surge up the ladder, the cult hero forward has become one of the most improved players in the NRL.

Worth it to watch the Twal try again.

That flick pass was a thing of beauty. Sonny Bill Williams eat your heart out.

Twal:
“You have a coach [Benji] who puts belief in you and I knew if I put my head down, worked hard and ticked my boxes I could build my game”
Twal is currently averaging career-highs in runs, run metres, tackle busts, offloads and tackles per game

Stefano will never be more than a 7 or 8 out of 10. He does two great things then follows it up by being lazy. There are bad moments in every game he plays. The kind of player who makes 5 tackle busts, then 2 plays later doesn't chase a kick and misses a try.

Everybody loves a wholehearted player who does his job week after week. But I will say that his game has improved a lot over previous years, whether it’s Heighington putting in some work with him or just his own efforts, he’s certainly one of the first picked every game.

Beginning to wonder if Twally is following Terrels diet tips and they're doing extra training together, getting better with age.

I think he just decided to eat raw meat. Same size just angrier, runs and hits harder. He’s a machine.
