My mistake
This team is truly awful. Failed to move up in defence for the entire game. No urgency or desire to win against a very average bunnies team. Thank goodness Talau is leaving . Simpkin makes too many handling errors at dummy half . Wakeham same as ever.
Reilly sharp in attack with two tries . Defence no worse than the others. Sione Fainu and Rua looked good when they finally got a run. Tuki Simpkins tried hard. A lot of these guys should be let go next season

Yeah from what I have seen, some games he’s good and some games he misses a couple of tackles.
Was average in Defence today, attack good though.

Terrible performance by the Maggies. Bring back the Tigers into the NSW Cup.

You're right another terrible board decision
Why not have Wests Magpies and Balmain Tigers as our two feeder clubs ?
I know before it become just Wests Magpies there was an argument saying we need all our best emerging and back up players playing together.
This doesn’t apply to any of the Qld based teams, Melbourne Storm and the Roosters who all have two separate feeder teams.

Whilst I understand your point V, hasn’t our recent discussion centred more about having a consistent image of Wests Tigers right through the grades ?
One team - one dream ! No Magpies, No Balmain , just West Tigers for all team’s from top to bottom.

Agreed, bring Balmain back into the KOE cup.
Or make Easts Tigers one of our affiliates.

Be good if we could piss Balmain and Wests off altogether and get our feeders from elsewhere.

Is John Tuivaiti from Balmain SGBall earlier in the year? Good to see Kit get a run in Cup. 1st time?
What’s going on with Sione? We keeping the powder dry until he joins his brothers and we have a triple threat?

Yes, yes and probably.
No, Tuivaiti is a fringe NSW Cup/Ron Massey Cup player, you're probably thinking of John Tuipulotu who played SG Ball for Balmain last year.
Yes, first time in Cup for Kit.
Was at last weekend's game and Sione played, but not sure whether he picked up an injury etc.

John is from Balmain
Nah, you might be thinking of John Tuipulotu.
John Tuivaiti is 25 and played his lower-grade rep footy with Manly.
Played NSW Cup with North Sydney previously.

Yeah Tuivaiti wasn't from Balmain. Apparently he goes ok though. Tuipolutu hasn't seen much Gametime, injury and the odd game in Massey or shield I believe.
Guess with Miller, Laulilii and Faagatu he's falling down the order

I thought he showed a lot of promise when i seen him play. A different body shape, taller, leaner with potential to grow. We have ample stocky types. Samuela Fainu like body.
