Young players are inconsistent. At what age did JT become a consistent first grader, around 23?

@ said:I have some interesting signing news coming through for the Tigers. No it's not Cronk. Stay tuned. You will be happy
@ said:@ said:@ said:Having Brooks and Moses in the team makes it extremely difficult for our opponents. Against the Dragons, Moses was targeted because LJL provided little threat on the left.
Is this tongue-in-cheek? Lack Jittlelon played on the weekend and we scored 26\. Broses played Rds 2-4 and we scored 2, 6, 14.
Also Broses both on the paddock make it very easy for our opponents to target weaknesses in defence.
For me there's not much consistency, that's the issue. Rd 1 was great, last week was good - how to distill those performances and weed out the poor ones.
JLJ has played 13 games, won 6 for us. Not so bad for a backup.
Did you see Sterling's reaction when he was informed Brooks was out of the Dragons' game? Pretty much as expected the Dragons shut Moses down and our attack was non existent. LJL had no spark.
Yes LJL is strong defensively (to a point) but when the ball heads to the left who provides the threat? While LJL can defend, didn't he slide off the JT tackle which resulted in a try and then let Hess get to the ball in the in goal for another? No half is perfect and each brings strengths and weaknesses. If this had been Brooks many would be all over him. Ash Taylor was steamrolled at least once by Papali for a try on the weekend.
Broses bring more collectively to the team than can LJL. That is reflected in the number of clubs he has been to without success.

Are you writing LJL in purpose? I have to ask, I had a dig at you about it, you have continued undeterred.
I agree JLJ is pretty uninspiring. The only point I was making is Tigers have been inept in attack with Broses on the field, and also they have scored a good number of points with Moses+JLJ.
I absolutely agree you want to focus points for attack, my primary concern at this time is the consistency, it's all well and good to have two good halves if that's only in theory, if they cannot string performances together on the field.

Could be his cousin, Lack Jittlelohn?
@ said:@ said:@ said:TBH I was more liking the way the tigers were gonna line up for 2018 without Moses or woods. Better roster options on the open market then those 2 wannabe cap space hogging merchants. Hope he backflips on the backflip
Let's just wait and see. Unless you've got drum confirming otherwise, it's all we can do.
My source isn't back at work til Tuesday so guess will see what happens between now and then

Woods signing might rule out getting a top flight 6\. May have to look at Roberts or even the prodigal son returning
@ said:Any truth to the rumor that I have been told that Benji Marshall will be here as soon as Moses gets his release?
