I wrote on here a long time ago that Api is this generation's Cameron Smith. Got laughed at. He can control a game as well as Smith and even has a kicking game just like him. I genuinely think he is that good.

Dont get carried away.
Api is doing a great job.

2 day turn around is a pretty big ask, but I suppose it's possible depending on minutes played, injuries etc.

Depends on how Api pulls up after SOO1 as Sheens may name him on the bench and give him limited minutes. Simpkins only got a run on Saturday night at the back end of the game and Api stayed on.

He is over 30 as well isnt he?
Played a lot of footy over the past few years.
He may back up, but is that a good thing? We need him firing if he does.

If he can turn this basket case into a competitive top 8 team I reckon he has a valid point

Didn't have to wait 13 years for Steve Smith to make a call on him being the best since Bradman. We knew like 5-6 years in. Api is also that good, not far off Cameron Smith. He may not win a premiership here, but he will dig us out of this hole. Remind me in a few years if he achieved nothing here. In fact, I bet NSW will win the series with him as a star. I bet you're all over him then.

Well I’m a QLDer for starters so no, I’ll be shit talking him lol…
He is very good, by seasons end I anticipate him being one of our best ever signings. But Cam Smith is another level. I honestly think a lot of RL people still haven’t fully grasped how good Smith was.

Origin, Hooker!!

Nope.
He ain't Cameron Smith in that respect. No way should he be turning around to face the Raiders.
NO nope nada. Last thing we need is a super injured Api.

Name him at 18 and see how he goes pulling up start Jake at 9 and Will smith on the bench

Smith is the greatest player ever. He should be the next immortal. Penrith were coming for them in the second half of the 2020 GF. He calmed them down and won them the game.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

A prime example is Api holding the 9 for NSW is absolutely massive for the Club. It shows & entices players they can keep their rep jerseys if they sign with the tigers. Well deserved reward for the skipper. Stoked for Big Stef too.

I cannot type the name Will Smith without thinking "getting jiggy with it. nananana- na na na"

I agree with what you are saying. Name Api, but don't have him start.
Please don't let Api get injured now.

Keep my reserve grade five-eighth's name out your f--in mouth.

Anyone else think Api will be around Wests Tigers beyond his playing career? I just have a feeling he will move into coaching or something similar. He seems very invested in the club.

It's a possibility. He's still too young to contemplate retirement. Would need to get through at least one more contract. In the pre-season he was talking about how Robbie Farah was teaching him things he hadn't even considered. Sounds like he still wants to learn and play the game.

 

[Bubba]

Api has finally clicked and the team has clicked on to him and his magnificence.

Add Jahream Bula and now Luke Brooks has clicked along with Wakeham.

Our spine is fine.

 

[hammertime]

If we can spend some money for a really experienced half, then we'll be blazing in the spine. Wakeham doing a pretty decent job though.

 

[AdelaideTiger]

Amazing to watch this bloke go about his business in person yesterday. Particularly on the defensive side of the ball. He did not stop running all game, tackles so hard for a smaller bloke. But also just organises the middle so well.
We are so lucky to have him.

Coaching yes, but maybe not necessarily with us. Think that’s a fair way off yet, I’ll be happy if we get him to extend.
Played a solid game last night, lots of tackles and an opportunist ( if not lucky) try. Only weak spot I thought was dummy half runs.
That’s where a fresh Cook could do some damage. Think it’s almost certain they’ll go back to 2 hookers next game.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Huge credit to our man. The extra efforts from Api a few times tonight, 48 hours after playing 80mins in Origin shows why he’s the Captain of this Team. His Efforts and Leadership is unbelievable. It's the little things that matter.

Well Done

 

[Wiz]

What a great signing. He’s better than I expected. I feel sorry for him we’ve only won three games.
