Jacob Liddle #198

[batboy]

Always cracks me up...
Simpkin goes OK in Ressies, And he's far superior to Liddle
Liddle absolutely brains them in Ressies, and He's far inferior to Simpkin.

Liddle by far outplayed Simpkin in First Grade, And Reserve Grade.... Hands down
That might not always be the case, But If we're playing in the park tomorrow and I'm picking one or the other,
I'm picking Liddle... If I'm looking to win of course.

I can see now why we don't make the 8
look to the future Liddel has had 64 chances to prove he can go 80 mins he can't

Good to see u back Jedi, and all your pearls of wisdom. With no context. 64 games marked by injuries. Mostly from poor management in blooding him to early, hence the double shoulder reconstructions and some by sheer bad luck when Talau kicks him in the side of the knee!
Last season was I think his first full season. Yes u are correct he is not an 80 minute player, yet.
As I have stated neither was Cook, he came if the bench for years, even recently Farah was coming of the bench for him, and he is the Australian hooker!
Yet don’t let me get in the way of u death riding liddle, u seem to excell at it. Or revel in it, not quite sure.
Anyway I can’t tell u 100% he will be a great 80 minute player, time will tell. What I can tell u is he is the best hooker at the club at the moment. Have u seriously seen the shoulders on Simpkin? And u want him to be the starting hooker?? Wasn’t he injured late last season with a shoulder problem? Not ready physically or mentally in my opinion. I hope the club looks after him better than they did liddle, and take their time.
I hope Simpkin turns out to be the player some people think he will be. But I have seen more in liddle at the same age as Simpkin is now.
I remember when liddle was playing in the 20s and was the best hooker in that comp, he played up against the cheese at the cowboys in one game, and the cheese owned him that day. But that was based in physicality, liddle always had him for skills.

Not to mention many off the bench (Probably behind class hookers like Dene Halatau, Matt McIlwrick or Elijah Taylor)

Here's a stat (That hasn't been mentioned yet) for all the brain surgeons on this forum, Prior to 2021 Liddle has started at No 9 - **10 TIMES IN HIS CAREER** TEN!!
Over 5 years in between plenty of Injuries... TEN!!
Most in a very ordinary side...

Off the back off 6 Games last year, And a major injury prior to that.
- I'm prepared to give the Kid the benefit of the doubt.
He's a footballer, The fact most here can't see it means very liddle to me
(See what I did there),
And I would guess the staff running our squad would think the same.

so it is other players fault liddle can't pass and the fact he has played 64 games over 5 years.
Get a good hooker in and move simpkin to bench and push Liddle on
Hopefully Sheens relapses Liddle can't play 80 mins

I wouldn't have spent all that time explain it to you, If I knew you weren't going to read it.

You do you buddy...
I'll do reality (And common sense)

keep supporting Liddle mate in your eyes the perfect 9 good luck

Where did anyone say Liddle is the perfect 9? Statements like this are just argumentative.

NOONE

EVER

If anything, At best it's been he's got some work to do....

Unless we're getting Smith, Grant, Api, Cook, Reed, Even McInness or Hodgson maybe...
Liddle is it.
Why bang on about it...

Wh cares if he can’t play 80 mins. Hardly any hooker in the game plays 80 mins.

I reckon he cares.

I base this on the doco when Farah was coaching him, reminding him how he wants to be an 80 minute player.

why go after Api or Hodgo if Liddle is the answer ...
As you said in the doco Farah and Madge push Liddle for 80 he can't do it
Sheens may see Liddle different to Madge we will see

Who said he’s the answer? He’s just the best of what is available to us.

I wonder who the 80 min hookers are..

We don’t have one .. it’s up to the coaching staff to manage that..

 

[Speed2burn]

Will this thread beat the Luke Brooks one?

 

[isaaktigers]

Well I mean it’s hard to play 80 minutes when you go for a 60-70 Meter tries and make first tackle hit ups.

Should be coming in second to complete the tackle.

Also, yeah he’s unfit.

Let’s hope he trains his ass off.

I can see very Liddle in this post apart from being Number 1 ticket holder in the Liddle fan club

Liddle do you know there are a few people on here that rate him as competent. Not saying he is a superstar, not saying he is terrible. There are shades of grey.

#keep him

 

[Red88_Tiger]

The Pom mentioned liddle wants to stay and fight for a spot. Terrific attitude.Would be nice if we had that across all positions

 

[Cobarcats]

Wests Tigers can provide the following Injury Report following the club’s final trial match against the Sydney Roosters.

Hooker Jacob Liddle suffered a knee injury during the first half of the side’s win at Central Coast Stadium.

Scans on Liddle’s knee have revealed a posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear, with club medical staff expecting the 25-year-old to miss between four and six weeks with the injury.

 

[Cobarcats]

Poor bloke, he must be gutted

 

[Tcat]

Some people have just got the worst luck.

We can't catch a break...
As soon as it looks up for us a bit, We're starting the comp without our best Hooker.

 

[PJ_]

Someone else will step up.
He was a pace behind last yr.
Jake, rua and peach can cover for the yr w api coming nxt

 

[Glenji95]

Feel for him but he’s very injury prone I know he’s only out for 6 weeks but Liddle would be on his last legs don’t think he’ll be here after next year

Simpkin will be alright until he comes back Peachy will cover in the meantime as well

 

[batboy]

Simpkin will be alright until he comes back Peachy will cover in the meantime as well

Yeah.... I know.
Neither are as good as Liddle though.
Peachey is also being used in the middle, And would also be a Utility - We have no one to replace him in either role.
We've got it stacked against us this year as it is, Without this kinda luck.

 

[upthetigers]

Hope he is in a good place mentally he's just had no luck at all

 

[hobbo1]

Punt him …

 

[TheDaBoss]

Reckon bennet might get him for 23
