Chammas wasn't on 100% footy

You're right, was Weidler.

What's your bench look like V Raiders?

Need to fight fire with fire. Raiders will rip and tear.
I’d start with Steph and Twal and bring Klem, and the 2 Fainu boys on after 20 with the mindset of killing anything in green.
The 4th spot…Simpkin

Pole at #13?

I don't see a problem with that bench at all.

Yep and not a ballplaying 13.
Hard and straight up the guts.

 

[The Chad]

I'd agree- best way to play a team like the Raiders.

Horses for courses.

I think Sam Fainu is a far more important signing than was ever given credit for. He'll sail close to the edge, but he likes the contact.

If Sione is inspired to play a similar game, and can do it effectively- we might have that 'edge' we always seem to lack in those hard contests.

Similarly- if we can manage the tough game in the middle- players like Sullivan can attack the tiring defences better.

This could very well be the key to success for the Tigers.

Along with a good general field & attacking kicking game (Sezar..)

Attack is still an issue. If we can't score points, it is demoralising over the course of a game and we fade.

Don’t forget AJ

Good article however I was trying to figure out who the magnificent high performance centre was, then I realised he was referring to a building! 😂

Me too!🤣🤣🤣

He can be chief dunny scrubber

Have to agree with above , we need to come out and hit them very very hard in defence , turn them around , get them on there backs and also stir up there big red fella he can’t help himself he’ll crack and do some dumb stuff , attack we need all of Sezer , API , Sullivan having sneaky runs and putting kicks into corners deep in the red zone ?
I want Klemmmer and Bateman in there faces .
to win this comp you need 100% commitment , need to be brutal in defence and have a solid attack , we can do this

This article is bizarre. If Dolphins can get Finefeuiaki, then Cowboys might want Howarth and if they get him, THEN Storm MIGHT be able to go for Stef. You'd think with the season just starting Journo's could find something more substantive to write about.

Bennett makes sense to me, given his links to Richo and Benji. I am all about it.

Begs the question - How many journos does it take to come up with crap? In this case it took 3 to come up with this gem.

The issue is how and why and when we give Api a spell.
IMO, we should be giving him the middle 20 of the game , if that . Thats basically a 40min. Break including halftime . We should really minimise his time off the field and make use of the halftime break . We never seem to do it .
Too often we lose the initiative in the game in this period , and we API back on and find the attack flows again .
The way we use our interchanges needs to be better in a Whole . Des basically replaces his players according to metrics and algorithms. Im not saying do that , but it just seems our replacements external of the front row rotation were haphazard , and almost like “oh yea Jake’s sitting on the bench”

No thanks... he'd keep dropping the brush into the water.

There will be no AJ slander on here, please

He's done tremendously well 2 get in such good shape
over 2 seasons. Similar style to Mo Fotuaika, not
overly short but plays low & powerfully, can find the
try line from 5m out. Don't know if he'll be selected
but we need 2 do a smash & grab job in Canberra,
I'd definately start Pole @ 13, split Klem & Stef, I'd
give Klem the 2nd stint or 20 mins in the middle 3rd.
Tuckers bench would be good, we'd have 2 chop
and change it with other teams though. Wouldn't
be mad with Galvin @ 14 either, Api can knock out 80
