I think Api's been below his best since the suspension, it's changed since then, doesn't seem as fit and decision making not as sharp.

I suppose the ins and outs don’t help, losing KPP, Fainu, Twal and Hunt in the forwards takes me back to the wooden spoon years when looking at our pack

The proof was there to see at the beginning of the season with most of the same side winning, can't remember a team list since then that hasn't been disrupted from another injury.
It's such a shame with a consistent side we would be on much more points and a great chance in the finals, that's the luck of a Tigers supporter unfortunately.

Yes, it would be stupid to play him again this year.
Get him right for 27

He’ll still be playing in the World Cup for Fiji when he’s recovered.
Not particularly about tonight - but Api is one of my favourite ever Tigers.
Absolute champion, no talk all action. Doesn't throw his toys out the cot on the field, even though he has had every right to over the years. Works his backside off.
STILL doesn't get the credit he deserves.
Actually one player I wish would leave the club to go win another premiership before he retires.

250th game this weekend.
Hes done so much in his career yet in my opinion, he's one of the most underrated and often unappreciated players when they're discussing the best.
Hes been an elite 9 for the majority of his career and we've been lucky to have him and are still, very much lucky to have him. We owe a lot to him, he has bled for this club.
Thank you, Api.
No matter what happens with the Tigers, you'll always be remembered as one of our best players and I hope when you retire, we keep you around because you're a incredible footy mind.

Not only game 250. It will also mark the most amount of games he’s played for a club with 80 games for us.

Api is an exceptional old school talent, but he won't be with us next year. He's made it pretty clear he wants to finish his career at the Bears.

To be fair, he hasn't really moved the needle for us, and he'll be 33.
Adam's grovelling today has also shown he doesn't want a breach of contract because that would mean losing the rest of his pay for this season.
He'll be gone too.

Never say never. He said it himself, in that interview. Whilst he could play past the age of 35 for Perth, I highly doubt it.
He played for the North Sydney Bears NSW Cup when he first started in the big league back in 2013, and he's often mentioned that he loves the club.
There are some great highlights and a few future NRL guns also playing in this video -
