OFFICIAL Pathways - KOE General Discussion

[Demps]

Savelio Tamale and Sione Finau are both quality NRL outside backs playing NSW Cup for the Raiders.
Any struggling club with any brains would be poaching both of them.

Agree

However, if we could only get one.... who's the one?

Kris as well. He's too good for KOE.

Sav Tamale as he is a top class attacking centre who was only being played on the wing at NRL by the Raiders.
He has his struggles defensively, but all our outside backs also have their struggles defensively and cannot attack either, so he is a massive upgrade on anything we currently have.

Well at least with eligible players that qualify as I think you have to play less than a particular number of NRL games in the season to be eligible to play KOE Cup

Is this a g up. Down 26 to 4 with 17 to go.

Got no halves

While both Liles and Stevanovic showed promise in Jersey Flegg, neither is KOE standard. Hopefully we don't see them again this season, they belong in Ron Massey.

I don’t know how the Raiders attract and stock pile talent so well. I love the city of Canberra but it’s hardly a destination with the cold weather to attract decent players capable of playing first grade who are happy to bide their time in reserves.

Gee up. Got thumped

Disappointing performance. Our halves struggled without Javon & Madden and our edge defence was exposed numerous times.

Skelton was putrid. To’a poor and went off injured. Makasini some good carries was ok.

Our best was Vaka Aho up front, Heath Mason did many good things with a couple of errors mixed in & Tristan Hope who tried his guts out.

Nothing in today’s performance to lift spirits. Just Vaka Aho who has taken his game to another level in Cup this season.

Vaka Aho has toiled away on our lower grades for the past few years, he deserves a crack at playing NRL.

He’s only on a Cup contract so would need to be upgraded to T&T like Lanyon was. I hope so. He’s no worse than Bunty atm & still plenty of upside imo.

he likes a confrontation he runs harder than what we are currently seeing in first grade.

Stats read well from last night too.

Aho 47 mins 153m run 89m post-contact 24 tackles 92% efficiency.
