Milone

[Goose]

I don't like to continue to stick the boot into anyone, especially a young bloke who has a reputation as a guy who works really hard and is a coaches dream, however I think he is really out of his depth.
he did have a couple nice touches really early, but he let us down from the point he bombed the try. The unnecessary 5th tackle penalty and lack of awareness on the Glen unders line for the try being the worst moments

Pretend Milone is injured! That way the NRL will probably allow an exemption to play Seve. As for Lovett he is a coaches pet, they can easily get rid of him but the coach is a stubborn fool. Funaki or Akauola can't be any worse and I believe they are both in the extended NRL squad.

Taylor doesn't rate either player. As for Pat Milone and Lyle Lovett, damn me those boys are out of their depth.

Time to blood in Seve on left centre & Simmona left wing lethal combination, and the right centre nofa, & right wing kev. That's how the backline should be, take a note of this coach.

 

[krayola]

He's a walking target. No need to scout any other area of our defense if you're the opposition - do teams even run at the other side of our defensive line when he's playing?

Every time he's played he's been out of his depth. Yeah, he's willing and so are Santi, Buchanan and Lovett but none would get consistent selection at a remotely successful club. The effort is only useful if you have a remarkable skill to complement it or to make up for your shortcomings and none of these guys do at the moment.

WT are known as a club that have good up and coming juniors, coming through the system.
We lack depth in positions we need to fill unfortunately. (Centre, Back and Front row etc)
Hence we play Milone,Buchanan,Lovett.

And that right there is something he cant blame on previous administration or salary cap on. These are Jason Taylor's decisions.

I feel sorry for him out there tbh.
Surely Lulia is in our top 25?

Experienced NRL and Super League player. Reasonable tall, solid and although not quick can find the line. He has also over come adversity so you would think is of strong will.

We mightnt have the best depth around but this guy should have at least been considered by now.

 

[diedpretty]

Stuff the cap situation - the club needs to show what a farce it is by picking some players outside the 25 if necessary - take the fine and make a huge media whinge about it - maybe then something will be done about the joke it is.

 

[Demps]

LOL,
Nathan Milone re-signs until 2017….

Can see that coming.
Worst move.

He's garbage.
Is he even fit enough to play 80 minutes?
He looked smashed out there.

if milone,buchanan and Lovett are re-signed for next year I wont renew my membership.it hurts to say it but after 16 years of paying good money to support my team its time to do something else.

Milone's position is untenable tbh, so it has to happen.

That says alot and I don't blame you mate.

 

[balmain boy]

Pretty sure Milone's contracted for next season. Was in 20s last year so most likely signed a 2 year deal for nsw cup.

Milone's a passenger, and it simply looks like he may not be in our future whatsoever. AM still yet to see him play a good game in 30 odd matches.

Seve and Heleta are younger (not by much though) but have a heap more potential to fill a void in either the short or long term. Both have committed to the club and one should be given their chance in the next week or two!

 

[GNR4LIFE]

When you're dead last you're going to have pluggers like Milone, Lovett and Siro. Its the nature of the beast when you have no money and no hope. Get use to it.

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

He is not as bad as Lovett

And hasnt he made some dumb ones
Like moving Lovett to centres instead of CL
Well done Master Coach
I dont think being smart is listed in the job ad when we are looking for a coach

Loses all respect and credibility from me anyway

Definately not NRL standard at present moment.

Like Seve to get a run but not against the roosters. Maybe Lawrence back to centre for one week to stiffen up the defence as we are devoid of other options.

Like Seve to get a run but not against the roosters. Maybe Lawrence back to centre for one week to stiffen up the defence as we are devoid of other options.

Exception for Seve to be blooded in, yep maybe not against roosters but hopefully some time soon.

These are the options-
\
\
Stacking left side option:
Left centre= Seve
Left wing= Simmona, maybe putting simmona on the wing he might not get injured as much.

Right centre= nofa, if not injured at the moment
Right wing= kev
or kev and nofa can swap around doesn't matter.
\
\
\
Balancing both sides options;
left centre- seve I prefer, but put simmona on the left if he cant play right centre, because seve can play left or right centre.
right centre- simmona or seve.

left wing= nofa I prefer, pat Richards only because he has to be in the team because of the coaches or his salary or maybe his kicking game.
right wing= kev.

if you're going to run out of the line.. DO SOMETHING! JT must be filthy at him
