My comments for each player so far.

Laurie is anything BUT safe at fullback!!Hes looking increasingly brittle under the high ball...his defence is flimsy..and his positional play is poor

The last few weeks haven’t been great for him. Been exposed big time.

The way we are writing Talau off makes me laugh. He's going to be so damn good soon. If he was surrounded by other good players he already would be. Imagine how good he'd look at the Roosters. I hope we are one day the sort of club that can bring good young players through without expecting them to solve all our problems instantly.

We have some seriously good young talent with Talau, Kepaoa, Uto, Blore, Mikaele et al.

He is garbage and would struggle to make NSW Cup at most other clubs.

Wow, give the kid a chance. I understand the frustration that is currently being felt, but like most good things in life; it is a long game and not short term.
We have been rubbish since Tim left & changing coaches every two years is no way to develop a culture or team.
We have Madge & if we are smart we will stick to me, bring the likes of Tim & Brett in to help will only make us better. We seem to be getting the back office in shape (forget what Fox is reporting, remember the media survive on bad news & shock value. As a old mate of mine (who was a sub editor at SMH) if it bleeds it leads.
I agree we have a lot of good YOUNG talent that will take time to mature, but thinking a 20 year old is rubbish at 20 is ridiculous, Talua will come good, talent is never lost.
I have been following the tigers since 68 (9 year old when Dad took me to Leichardt oval) & I always seem to have a great week when we win & the reverse when we lose, but remember it is only footy.

What talent? Speed- sadly lacking, Tackling-- poor. ability to beat a man--poor, catching high balls-atrocious, all round errors- atrocious, football smarts-- o.
Good points,- somebody with power loves him.

He has been pretty poor right. He is an error magnet. Maybe he can turn it around but he needs a lot of work. He is a liability out there a lot of the time. I've seen him play like that in reserves as well.

Walsh throws all his passes forward

The refs and commentators to in love with his dreamy eyes to notice.

Talau has played 27 games for us, more than a season and he seems to be getting worse. He has had enough time. This IS how good he is, and its not good enough.

Agree, I thought he was below average last year but he’s plunged to new depths this year. Slow as a tug boat and has dick fingers.

Hoping AJ Kepaoa can show the same form he was showing the night he got injured when he comes back

That looked extremely promising

The half a game he played at his natural/actual position of centre?

Agree.

Looks like he's put on weight since surgery.

Laurie is anything BUT safe at fullback!!Hes looking increasingly brittle under the high ball...his defence is flimsy..and his positional play is poor
He needs to bulk up a little and improve his technique,because atm hes nowhere near Walsh...and nowhere near NRL standard

Corrected:

Walsh is only a laugh at the FB, he is nothing BUT safe at Fullback! His looking increasingly brittle under the high ball.. his defence is flimsy,,, and his positional play is poor!
He needs to bulk ups lot and improve his technique, because ATM he is nowhere near Laurie.. and nowhere near under 7 standard!

The last few weeks haven’t been great for him. Been exposed big time.

It’s classic WT syndrome. Hard to soar like an eagle when you’re surrounded by Turkeys.

His defence is less than satisfactory...hes often out of position..and he overplays catcging the high ball
..sounds a bit like Benji!

He was our best player most weeks for half a season in his first full season. There was always gonna be a dip in form. You’re looking at the wrong blokes mate, only reason his defensive prowess is being questioned is because the blokes on the edges are turnstiles

Concede that...but hes been less than average for the past month
I want him to succeed like everyone else,and no-one is calling for his exit..but he needs to improve..fast..id he wants to stay at this level

Even Teddys’s defensive stats aren’t impressive, it’s a lonely old place back there when you’re one on one in space. His bomb defusal and kick reception have been fantastic. I’d say his big improvement area is positional play but he’s only 20 odd games into a career.

My fear is all the losing will affect him eventually, and the signs are already there.

It has to be the hardest position to play in a bad team. I could imagine it's very lonely back there when your geting pumped

Not just that, our scrambling defense is almost non existent, the guys on our edges (won’t name names again) just turn and jog back when they get beat.
