Chee Kam 100kg 192cm,Mc innes 91kg 177cm.

There's no way mck is actually that size.

Tigers website.

Those numbers aren't always accurate but MCK is a pretty big dude. Certainly could play lock given his size however he's too poor a defender to be considered there

Still like Twal for lock. What gives the impression the coaching staff thinks he was a failure there?
Those questioning his passing. He was involved in a number of movements that led to tries as a link man.

Twal needs to be on prop rotation. We need a mobile lock. ***Last year when Liddle was dummy half and Harry was lock is when we looked the most dangerous.***


I see this repeated a lot here and I think it is deeply flawed. Each time this happened last year we DID look great (particularly in attack) but each time it happened it was late in the game and when we were chasing points to chase the game.

If we had Harry (or similar) at lock for the whole game, we get pumped up the middle and we lose by a thousand.

It was my observation. It was pretty clear to me that there was a huge difference when that was the combination.

It worked in small doses in the last 20 minutes of games ....80 minutes .....

Dale Finucane ?

Throw the kitchen sink at him.

Haha I only just noticed he is off contract this year as well. Yep id take him in a heartbeat.

Solve our lock problem instantly.

In my opinion either him or Jake Turbo are the missing piece that would make us top 8 maybe top 4. Leadership, defence, mental toughness, will to win. All boxes ticked. ✅

Jake Trjobevic is a step up on Finucane ...he can ball play at or before the line ...that is a massive advantage

The only way he or his brother will ever leave Manly is if they get 2-3 years of the spoon.It is not a money thing with either of them

Yeah realize that ..was just putting it in perspective ....Jake is the best 13 in the comp along with Taumalolo

And we will probably never get within cooee of signing either

Unfortunately you are correct

We still are in need of a lock. Surely that has to be the priority now.

Or move Luci to lock and sign a dynamic edge second rower

Why would you do that when you just went out into the market and signed a lock. Do you watch other teams or just our games?

If you’re talking about Joffa he played prop for the last 6 weeks of 2020 and put up his best numbers there. Also played second row and bench. Who doesn’t watch games mate haha



Come see me when he starts at 13.

its so obvious.

That’s what Anthony Seibold thought ?



Thats as good as saying thats what Jason Taylor thought lol.

You’ve lost me bro. Joffa played lock throughout the worst period in Broncos history last year and ultimately the coach was sacked. Unsure where the skinny punching bag JT comes into it but I hope Joffa finds some of his earlier career form at WT. personally think it’ll be at prop but who knows.

Not sure about that..Carrigan was there lock in most Games ..Ofahengaue when starting was at Prop bar 2 games in the back row..the rest where off the bench replacing Props..think he started 1 game at lock when Carrigan was out..

Not much difference between how he'd play at 10 or 13 for us I reckon

Yeah he started 1 came at lock, 3 in the second row, 4 at prop and 7 off the bench. All his games starting at prop were in the last 5 rounds where his stats improved dramatically.

Thank you, by correcting me you have only enhanced my point. I think he’s a prop haha

Correcting you? I agree I think he is a prop, we may play him at 13 this year but that is because we don't have a 13.

I thought he played more lock than that under Seibold but knew he’d been moved all around in the forwards. My original point (now a couple of pages back) was that his best position is up front.

What’s the difference ? Madge has stated before that size isn’t A variable when deciding things like lock.they base it on agility, ball skills , engine , work rate etc. for instance Taumalolo is absolutely huge , and he’s the perfect lock .
I know 1 thing . Twal is not a lock . Only because his link play is diabolical. So if Joffa can get through the same work as a front rower , whilst providing that link play when necessary , at more. higher of volume than anyone else , then joffa is the man for the job. I wouldn’t even care if it was stefano or Musgrove , or Simpkins or Mbye (won’t happen , just making a point )Who ever can hit the metrics required to do that job to high standard gets the 13 jersey.
You have this image in your head , about stuff , when it’s not a really applicable. If they look like victor radley or Taumalolo , it’s irrelevant . I know which one is prefer.


What’s the difference between a lock and a front rower? How long have you got? Depends on your game plan and the type of guys you have in your team. I’m interested which one would you prefer? I’d happily take either at WT.

In how Madge has his middles hence being called middles rather than prop and lock . They’re all one in the same , except the lock needs to be fitter , and more ball skills . Which Twal fits the Bill by the way , except he hasn’t developed the ball skills, so it was a huge detriment to the team . If packer was way fitter he would be a great lock , as he has a decent offload and can ball play . But he’s a slug so there goes that. Todd Payten would have been a marvel in today’s game with his ball playing and link play . Hi
The storm just won with Asofa Solomona wearing the 13. Sharing with Finucane who’s not small either . .
This fascination with body types is wrong . The staff are onto it, it’s attributes that are way more important . It doesn’t matter a pinch of poo , if you look like dean widders just before pre season , if he can do the job . Or if he’s some freak of nature and has a body like a raver at 4am in the morning after a few weeks of shards . If he has the skill set that the team requires and can perform that’s way more important .
For the record I’d take JT 100 times out of 100.

By the way , stop editing your posts after people reply so you don’t look bad . It’s annoying .

I edit my posts only if I make an error or omission and I notice it. The timing is irrelevant. Couldn’t care less what forumers think of me.

Edit: which post has got under your skin?

None . Just pointing out a thing that you do , after the conversation he moved on . You’ve done it I’ve noticed like 5 times in the last few days . In debates with people . It’s fine if no one has replied , but seems Suss if your changing it after someone has replied to you, especially if thier response undermines what your saying .
Just an observation , just pointing it out . Not trying to argue .

Mate radley plays 10kg above his weight. I've seen him drop Tapau front on and Tapau would have 15-20kgs on him easily

Agree on Jurbo but he looks lost without his bro...had a quiet season by his standards imo

I'd take either of them over Jason T, I thought he was well below his best last year, and I rate Radley very highly. But I don't think I would take either of those kids over Jake T, still under rated and just literally has it all for a 13. The only knock on Jake from last year would be his go forward in SOO was very average, but I place most of the blame on Freddie for that debacle.

Jake Trjobevic is a step up on Finucane ...he can ball play at or before the line ...that is a massive advantage


The only way he or his brother will ever leave Manly is if they get 2-3 years of the spoon.It is not a money thing with either of them

Yeah realize that ..was just putting it in perspective ....Jake is the best 13 in the comp along with Taumalolo

And we will probably never get within cooee of signing either


Ehhh you reckon? I'd take Murray or Radley over either of those two, and we are no chance of signing them aswell

Nah Jake has a huge set of kahunas ...he'd kill his entire family just to jump on a loose ball ....the other two are pretty boys

I love his tackling technique, if I could choose a superpower that would be it.

Lol , Really ? There’s not something more practical you’d choose?

Haha half joking, half poking fun at my own deficiencies when I played

Chee Kam 100kg 192cm,Mc innes 91kg 177cm.

There's no way mck is actually that size.

Tigers website.

Those numbers aren't always accurate but MCK is a pretty big dude. Certainly could play lock given his size however he's too poor a defender to be considered there

Still like Twal for lock. What gives the impression the coaching staff thinks he was a failure there?
Those questioning his passing. He was involved in a number of movements that led to tries as a link man.

Twal needs to be on prop rotation. We need a mobile lock. Last year when Liddle was dummy half and Harry was lock is when we looked the most dangerous.

That's because it's Harry and he's a weapon. Not many of his quality out there

Mate radley plays 10kg above his weight. I've seen him drop Tapau front on and Tapau would have 15-20kgs on him easily

Agree on Jurbo but he looks lost without his bro...had a quiet season by his standards imo

Jake T definitely had a down year. Was ball playing too much which often didn't lead to much and his running game seemed less effective. Don't get me wrong he's a good player but there's quite a few better locks in the Nrl I reckon

I'd take either of them over Jason T, I thought he was well below his best last year, and I rate Radley very highly. But I don't think I would take either of those kids over Jake T, still under rated and just literally has it all for a 13. The only knock on Jake from last year would be his go forward in SOO was very average, but I place most of the blame on Freddie for that debacle.

All depends what your after Radley /Murray /Jake t all better with the ball then Jason t but Jason t is the best ball running forward in the game

Only Taumalolo can average 200+ running metres a game and that's below his best. He's one of the best players in the world.
