I'm sure Sheens will have a good nights sleep and review the evidence with a cool head, and then apologise to Fifita for the TV footage that obviously showed Sheens at his stressed worse. (that's what I would do)

IF that was the reason that Fifita got hooked then yes it was an overreaction. I thought he was quite good tonight and once again added that impact and aggression of the bench. Hope hes there next week because he is great impact.

again i think you guys are over looking the fact that galloway was warming up on the side line holding the number 10 card before that error occured….. if any forward deserved hooking tonight it was gibbs
The Fifita issue didn't look good on TV and I'm sure we have not heard the end of it. Sheens is probably blowing up because who does he throw on? They all had shockers. All as bad as each other. Put yourself in his shoes. What do you do? Once again carrying too many injuries into the game and wet weather does not suit our style (nor the grass left long deliberately). It looked like the timing was completely out.

No big deal really, Fifita went ok in a forward pack which struggled and he'll be there next week ready to rock again.
Fifita went on after 15mins coz we had defended our back-sides off. he came on and defended from the get-go and still managed good meters. he should be the first one picked on our bench every week. when he comes on after the tigers have had a good start and an even share of posession, he destroys teams with that big "don't argue" fend. great player. great future.

Yeah its so easy to be a super coach from cyberspace.
Next time you'all want to bag the coach, captain or team how bout you annex your CV to enhance your credibility.
Please - don't be one of those obese losers waving a flag that make me cringe.

Its also easy to take a broad swipe generally at a group, rather than directly oppose or discuss a POV.
You still going on abouit this "Ive played/coached so I know more than you" type crap?
Its tiresome and been done a thousand times before you

No, no, no, no, no,
my point is that reasonable minds can disagree.
if you, me, ricky stuart, bellamy, wayne bennett, jack gibson or tommy raudonikis was in sheens seat we might not have done what he did. maybe we wouls have. my objection is to the peanut gallery criticisms of sheens - the only guy who is fully apprised of all the facts. 😢 :wink:

There's nothing tiresome or crappy about drawing a line between criticism that is ignorant and that which is informed. IMO if you haven't played rugby league at a competitive level your views are of limited value.
You can pull your $120 NRL jersey over your fat gut whilst typing out your learned critique of the coaches 1-17 but to me your diatribe sounds like a sparrows fart. :laughing:

You can not blame people for getting upset because their team who so sensationally won the 05 title has been bloody hopeless ever since.
If Sheens plan A falls apart, the team just falls to bits out on the field. Sometimes we win those games, but that is because we have two freakish talents in the side who come up with game winning plays out of nothing. Farah came up with two of them tonight and they were both off the top of his head - nothing to do with Sheens.
Sheens' inability to provide us with a halfback since Prince left is an embarrassment. He had plenty of warning - not like Scott pulled a SBW….
Injuries have been very unkind to us but it is the adaptation to a situation - the rolling with the punches that Tim can not do. He simply panicks and shuffles players around weakening positions all over the field.
We are still making all the same mistakes we were in 06...nothing has changed.
We were lucky tonight and with the current form we are showing we cant win the title, not at the moment anyway.....

The Tigers won tonight because the opposing team was prevented from scoring more tries (and penalty goals) than the Tigers scored against them. Yes, the Tigers didn't score 38 points as i predicted - but as I predicted Chris Lawrence was the first try scorer, thank you NSW TAB!
Well done coach and team!

There really is a rose coloured glasses view of Fifita on these forums.
He had some good moments but realitsically he was guilty of running across field as much as anybody else out there in the orward (Except Heighno as always). He just does it fending 3 or four players off. It looks impressive but he still makes only 3 or 4 forward metres from those hitups.
His fitness is an issue like Galloways is atm with lazy marker defence. They killed us at marker last night and he and Keith were part of the reason

Fifita's lack of concentration and respect for possession during that play the ball was poor.
But, **IF** he was hooked because of that, then its a disgrace. He was hitting the line hard. He outplayed Gibbs and Galloway tonight by miles.
