I hear your point Sirro and I can't remember if it was you or another that pinpointed a form drop from round 10 when Olam was hit heavily by a Manly player... Okunbur I think..I hope your right, but I wouldn't say no way. IMO Fijians and PNG players can lose confidence when hit the way they hit others.
I can't remember who hit Sivo, but I remember he got hammered once and he has been a shadow of himself since.
I'm really hoping that Olam had a back issue and got pissed when his rehab didn't go as he wanted. If that is the case, we may land on our feet with a fit and fresh Justin. I'm doubtful though.
We need to solve this. Like honestly, there were several games where our entire team did a form drop from being hit. Us vs Sharks in the first half it was neck n neck. Second half after a few heavy hits the sharks run away with the game.
Something an Easts or Manly Phys trainer said "hey the physical is tough, but we like the Physical!". It's psych.
The Tigers need to start liking the physical. Getting in and having a bash, I only see this in us vs Parra. We need to coach this in and have the right mindset.
