OFFICIAL Apisai Koroisau #263

[tig_prmz]

Luai and Fainu were quite poor but Apis service out of dummy half has been shocking.

Loopy balls, and he always seems to take a step or two instead of passing off the deck.

Needs to simplify his game for a bit..

Api has fallen off a cliff the past month

He has a an extension in the bag. Drop off isn’t a shock.

 

[Demps]

Had a poor game.
Hopefully plays better next week.

He's bled for the club.
Deserves some respect.

Respect from whom?

He's been poor most of this year.

 

[Lukic]

We're all hoping he plays better and I don't think anyone has any ill-will towards Api, but it's becoming rather apparent that extending him isn't going to be a very good move either.

The more and more I think about it, it's just total madness to me that you would extend a player who you've already got under contract, when you know their best is behind them or if they're a truly special player (e.g. a Cam Smith). I get chucking on an extra year or two for a guy who's in his prime or entering his prime, but Koroisau's a couple years past his prime now and his play could fall of a cliff rather suddenly.

This is some real roster management 101 stuff we're getting wrong here.

Still, one of the best to ever pull on our jersey.

We haven't deserved him, hes been the best in our team for years and now we got people complaining we're stuck with him.

We had Brooks for 10 years and he couldn't even tie Apis shoelace.

Fans exaggerate everything. Everyone's given him a heap of respect but he's been poor for a while now. He needs to improve.

Ay, probably collectively, as a team.
Which we have, since last year.

Needs to continue.
Api has carried this team since he got here.

All 3 of them were very poor imo.

Yeah, but respect doesn't equal prioritising a would be 34yo rake in 2027. Cameron Smith might have played until 36, but he was an outlier with a very different skill set.

 

[Muffstar]

I thought Luai was ok today. Latu was very quite, he needs to run more.

The position of the Titans on the ladder does not reflect the quality of their playing roster. There are so many talented juniors in the Northern Rivers and Gold Coast playing RL or RU. Traditionally we always struggle against them.

He gets paid big $$$. does not need respect. Just has to deliver.

That's exactly why we should have learnt from that mistake.

I think Latu is just finding his feet as a 7.. today he played a role, but I didn't see him "play what was Infront of him"... Maybe we needed that stability today... With an offseason under his belt I think we will see a much improved player .

The problem with Api isn’t the 2025 version, it’s the version 26 and beyond. If he’s starting to decline already, that’s a red flag. And if TDS kicks on, the club will look like idiots.

that;s what made a sloppy win ,so much better

They have a couple of maroons forwards also who only a couple weeks ago humiliated the blues aswell. Brimson, Campbell and Sami are quality in their positions aswell. I feel they should be doing a lot better than their ladder position

Yeah, Smith didn't often have to play with blokes on our level. Anyone at Storm not up to scratch was either improved or moved on. Had a decent coach, too.

even Blind Freddy can see Api digressing over the last few years , Coach may have just realized also starting him from the bench today.How they didnt sell that to TDS leaves me baffled
