Alex Twal and **David Nofoaluma** say the club's on-field start to the season is disappointing but the squad are confident of turning their form around this weekend.


**“He’s been successful where he’s been in the past… I personally think he’s a good coach.**
.

That line is not very smart. It tells me that some of the players think otherwise. Whats more its hardly a glowing review of a coach. More like a throw away line that does nothing but highlight that the coach may not be perfect but he is ok.

Cheers Nofo, got a good read of where the players are at from that.

I watched the interview on Ch9. I have not watched a lot of Nofoaluma being interviewed but it appeared he was less than enthusiastic. Probably buckwheats.

After watching that interview Nuffie has been added to my most punchable head list ..talk about smug .. got his 4 year contract .

We can thank inspector gadget for that

Whose that?

Our chairman

Oh yeah? is that proven anywhere? Do we know what deal Madge wanted?

Dunno ?‍♂️

Really, I would be curious to know if our front office demand certain deals of players and over call the coaching staff.

Nofoaluma's deal was put together by Hartigan...

Then isn’t he a goose

Same bloke just re-signed Jake Simpkin to a long term deal...

360 also mention Madge continually looking for more $$ from the board on performance but gets knocked back

Not sure what you mean, “on performance”? Is it for himself, the team or something else?

Payments to refs for a fair crack.

Thanks. I guess the problem isn’t so much the Nofoaluma deal it’s continuing to play him thinking his the best winger we have. That may be true at this stage but it doesn’t guaranteee that we can’t replace him with someone more suitable for Cheeper, that’s the challange now. Let’s hope Gebbie and Fitzy rise to the occasion!
Nofa long term for $400k is really half as bad as MBye for 800k.

Also nice to know it wasn’t a deal enforced by Madge.

I agree with you @hobbo1...from posts on here around the time of Nofa being re-signed I would say Our Chairman did have a lot to do with it.

I reckon Madge had a lot to do with Nofa being re-signed.
If you remember there was talk of the possibility of Nofa going to the Storm and Madge saying Nofa's not going anywhere.

I thought the suggestion was Hartigan was happy for Nofa to go, but Maguire wanted him to stay? I thought I read that on here ....not that that means anything lol

You are correct @Tiger-Tragic

Remember this ..?


It’s a bold move, but the kid is a goer, when he got belted on Sunday his instinct was to jump off of the canvas and play on, he’s got heart, he’s built like an OX, throws a great pass, and loves to take on the line...he’s playing hooker in a team that gives him NOTHING to work with, and he’s already starting to run the onto the ball and lead by example... I can tell you without an inch of doubt he will only improve with every game as everything he does is classy and he has time that the classy players all seem to have as he’s a real footy player, same as Sam Walker... I really hope they build the club around Jake, I just think he’s a winner, that other players will want to play with.. his rise along with Daine Laurie and Cini and Madden is the only thing I have been consoled by all season.... Cini is a deadset footballer, he has got the lot, these 4 are THE BIG 4 that we’ve been looking for for 15 years now, I only hope that someone at the club can see this... these kids with Blore and stefano and seyfarth and amone and Mikaele and Liddle are the Tigers way to the top 4 ...... without a doubt, plus a coach that coach them to bring out their potential!
