Both have a role to play.
I must admit I thought KG was going to be something special when he came to us
because of his size…maybe another Sirro...but he's developed into a solid club player with good work rate but not huge impact,& because of that he is unlikely to play SOO.Durability is a major concern..he seems to be out more games than he's in
Fifita has more potential at the same age,but all depends on how he develops over the next few critical years.If he improves his error rate & ability to offload,he could go all the way.
THey both add value to WT
 
Galloway is better than King, Snowden, Poore, Perry, Kite - who have all played SOO this year or last!!!

Why write him off as an Origin player in the future?? You blokes would sell your dog for a dollar!

Not for a dollar Red, but maybe a few :smiley:

I agree with the comparison, but Snowden is going to probably leap everyone else on your list, possibly even Keith. 1 more year and I'd say Snowden will be the 2nd/3rd Prop in the Kangaroos. He and Shillington should have a long rep career ahead of them if they keep up the hard work…

Keith just needs a solid 12-18months injury free and I'm certain he will go close...
 
Do you have anything to contribute to this thread?

Your personal hatred of me mustve caused you to miss it.

Personal hatred? There must be 3 or 4 steps in the development of our 'personal' relationship that I've missed…. :smiley:

I don't hate, resent, envy anyone, let alone someone I don't know. I think your content is superficial, dismissive and mostly uninteresting, but it doesn't affect my day, other than when you make a specific attempt to humiliate or demean. Even then, I've been done over by experts in the field, so it's water-duck-back :stuck_out_tongue:
 
That's the only explanation I can find for him getting so little game time.

I was sitting in Bay 14 so had a good look at the bench. I kept waiting for him to come on. He'd get up, have a little run, stretch and then sit back down. I thought, ah, there saving him for the 2nd half when the Roosters forwards tire. Then, they'll give him 30, 20, 10… he gets all of about 7 minutes game time. I thought at 15-2, surely we would bring him on to rip into them.

I'm mystified and bemused. Did he have the flu? gastro? something? Any ideas?
 
Ridiculous decision, can't believe Murdoch got on before him.

I just don't get it - you have a guy with his impact and he plays 8 minutes. WTF?

There was a period early in the second half where we could have finished them off, he should have been brought on then…
 
I was in bay 12 Pratten park (nice avatar by the way) and kept my eye on Fifita as well thinking along similar lines to you, perhaps it was a punishment for something he did during the week, or maybe Sheens believed the rooster may target him, it is hard to work out. Fifita's body language looked very negative as well sitting on the bench, I don't think the same thing will happen next week.
 
Only thing I was disappointed with tonight was Fifita's game time.

I kept saying to those around me " you wait till he gets out there", must be something wrong.
 
Sheens Ran with a rotation of Gibbs Galloway Payten and it was working..

Dwyer Fulton Murdoch in the backrow….at 15 2 it was a good time to introduce Murdoch ...then with Daniela and Benji going down I think it threw the interchange a bit so much so we played the last 8min of normal time with 12 men...
 
I was expecting him to come on in the first half when we had them on the back foot, the last 15 minutes or so
 
I was wondering the same thing why was Fafita not on the field and a 19yr old being blooded in that game go figure but I stopped trying to figure selections out a way ago.
 
I was also thinking along same lines. I thought that when Big Keith went back on for his 2nd stint after only being off the field for about 5 min that something might be up with Fifita. He should of at least went on middle of 1st half to get his head in the game not in end of 2nd half when he was too lazy at marker and let in that try from Pearce.
He needs to learn that he needs max impact when on the field. He is not playing U/20's anymore.
