Yep. He must've been 'over-coached' too 🙄

Maybe not H but that’s what he got so now up the coaches to correct his shortcomings and play him wherever is best for the team, not the individual.
And the sooner he reverts to his natural hair colour the smaller the target on him will be !

He had 5 runs in an hour of footy and was woeful in defence. That's an awfully long lapse in concentration or the dude just ain't got it....

If the coach has no viable option then you have to stick. That was the case last year with Wakeham. There was no one else! Benj has an option for this coming week - Sezar.
He may not be electric or have a great highlight reel, but he won't miss his defensive assignment like Sullivan did and he will be good for Galvin to have alongside him. I'm a bit nervous about this week against the sharks. They have lethal outside backs. It could be an absolute bloodbath if we can't fix the defence out wide.
He should change his name AGAIN to Samson - he’s lost all his strength .. not from cutting but bleaching
Maybe if the rest turned up and had a real crack from the kick off, we could then make a fairer assessment
He went missing big time but so did most of them

Spoiled for halves this year albeit not much game experience outside of Sezer, but can't wait until the season is gone for the halves to click. Prefer the approach of changing it up early.

He was signed before Luai wasn't he?
Just watch an old game with Pat Richards, Gareth Ellis & Co. to realise what’s been missing for a long time - absolute passion from Go to Wo … the moves, oh the moves. The sawn off witches hat, most likely thieved from a DMR shed and hacked down in seconds to elevate Pat’s monstrous kickoffs. How did we become so mediocre (limp even), like a team of strangers that don’t know each other, don’t support the ball runner, don’t move up and knock off the opposition attack before they build up revs.
Just the old-fashioned, telegraphed run-around - yes, that old chestnut, albeit in frame by frame slow motion predictability, preceded by 5 five tackle wasting half-hearted so called “crash plays”. Can’t remember the last time we chip kicked over the top - oh yes I do, amazing lot it was Brooks in the demolition of the Cowboys, then he crawled back into his shell again…🥱
How hard can it be to back up the ball runner and be in a position to accept a rank offload? Seems Bulla and Api are the only ones capable of anything un-robotic.
I’m hoping Olam can bring a lot of passion back on Saturday night, I’m sure he will, just needs a few more willing comrades around him. I think Olam will inspire a win against all odds this week 🤞
No more Slender “crash plays” please, if you can’t measure up at the Urinal then you aren’t going to penetrate the try line against those who do measure up.

Sullivan is a five eighth his strength is running & hopefully he comes good he was out of position & will improve. When Latu Fainu is fit
I would put him onto the bench to cover the halves and hooker positions. He is more solid than Galvin who should have another year in the NSW Cup. I think Latu will partner Luai in 2025 with Sullivan on the bench & Galvin in the centre’s or back row if he bulks up.

Agree he is more suited as a 5/8 but he thinks he's a half. Galvin out called him for the ball and his defence is not up to NRL level IMO. He will be eased back into reserve grade very soon. There are better options for the bench.
I rest my case .. Olam (the wrecking ball) was superb and absolutely motivating. We finally off loaded and backed up each other. Api absolutely in a class of his own! Great upset - Leichardt Oval the real hero! I got up and watched it again this morning.

Olam looked like a man with a point to prove ! I was dubious about him but if that’s what we can expect it’ll be worth watching.
Sezer nothing sensational but seemed to
bring some calm into the play, and his kicking was consistent whilst I’m sure he helped Galvin.
Interesting mix of youth and experience. I’m intrigued what we do with Fainu coz he was the hot item. And Bud can play a part, but only off the bench, at least while everyone healthy.

Olam was nearly twice as good as I expected. Doesn't say much but clearly lifts the players around him. And, as dogshit was Bud was last week, he looked quite nifty at dummy-half
Olam was excellent and Faataape has exceeded expectations. He’s not brilliant but he’s had some really tough defensive assignments in his first two games and he’s done a fine job.
