Big LL

[BalmainJnr]

The only back rower in the comp that needs the half next to him to act as his defensive minder.

 

[Krammy]

A year on.....and he is still the exact same.

Never dropped. Fades BADLY 30 min mark...tries scored on him yet again. Exactly that point in time.

Yet Madge leaves him out there. Un be lievable.

We all see it week in week out. It truly puzzles me why he is not rested or come off the bench.

Good with ball
Gets gassed early
Doesn’t like to tackle
Too fat
Unfit

the entire forum was pretty much fighting me when I suggested as much when we signed him. Never had, nor do I think he ever will have an 80min tank.

He looks busy, to be fair he always is very busy, but isnt always effective.

We need to carry a 2nd rower on the bench to rotate 11-13. Blore and Tuki hold the keys...

He was that gassed tonight he actually passed the ball ..

With the exception of the first line you’ve just described me perfectly

I don't know what Tuilagi has to do to get a run.
Those of us that watched the Magpies in KOE know that he was the stand out forward. He's had to sit back and watch others get given a go before him.
It must be demoralising.

I’d give Dias ? a run

Liam Fulton would roll in his grave. If he had one. That boy could tackle.

He runs hard I'll give him that. But he's very raw.

Full of moths ........but I'm used to them

LL has been sensational this season...but he is badly burnt out. Two really poor efforts on the goal line tonight, little impact with the ball.

Madge has played him way too many mins IMO.

He should be playing Jason Taumulolo mins...not 80 a week.

He means a lot to us going forward...let's not burn him out.

Thoughts?

Off the bench impact only? It’s been coming …. Hope Madge sees the light.
Our back row is crap.

If Blore and Tuilagi don't start next week, I think I will give up for the year...and I've not missed a game in decades.

Knowing Madge...you can be sure he's already penciled in MCK to start.......

Agree mate, this is the lowest team I’ve ever watched in a Tigers jersey. Finding myself loving Doueihi because he actually tries like a first grader. In reality he probably wouldn’t make most NRL teams in the halves.

Joe often have a go's been really disappointing the last 5 or 6 weeks.
It seems like after the excitement of joining a new club wore off he's gone back to being the Mr. Mediocre he was at the Broncos.

 

[bigsiro]

If he is going to stay then it would only work if he played in stints, starting
on the bench and coming on as impact player.
But boy that arm-grabbing defense tonight was truly embarrassing.

 

[Demps]

Bench forward.

Do they tell him to load up on cheeseburgers all week?

 

[aturkey]

He has been... sensational? How? He is not damaging in attack and is consistently slow and tired in defence. He is part of the problem. So is Tamou. So is Talau. So is Ofa. They are stealing their paychecks.

 

[earl]

I like him. He makes most first grade teams in the comp if not all of them. He is an impact player which we desperately need.

I'd be trying him off the bench.
