They might be in Ron Massey. Were never going to contribute to WT or Wests Magpies this seas

No doubt - he is gone … seems they will just try to appease him now the last few weeks of the season

So why the hell was he named this week? Clown show.

Why... unless they are trying to negotiate a player swap i just don't get it.

Who is the better half in this game that gives us the best chance of winning for a significant game for the player who has consistently shown up - then you might understand the coaches dilemma - no Latu no Madden and that leaves a rookie or Mason.
API deserves to have the best team on the park for this game and unfortunately Douehi is the best option.

Wife (Eels fan) & I haven’t missed a Tigers v Eels game for as long as I can remember. I told her if AD is picked in the side I won’t go. I can’t support his selection. I have backed Benji since day 1 but his selections have me asking why a coach would sabotage his own career. It’s embarrassing. I can’t believe I invest every year buying memberships into this club.

This vaping business is being blown out of proportion, as long as they aren't doing it at training and in club gear theres nothing anyone can do. People will do what people do in their private lives we can't control that. Similarly with guys doing rec drugs we all know its rampant everyone who has been out and seen players at clubs ect knows what goes on as do the clubs.

That being said if they are vaping, smoking doing lines or drinking at work they should be sacked/reprimanded depending on the severity. Same rules that apply to any work place apply to them, and if they are vaping and or smoking don't sign them in the first place as they are taking their job as an athlete seriously.

Blown out of proportion - Gold!

Junior Tupou is definitely smoking that shit.

It’s Ben Gardiner time

Why should the club trying to appease him?? Any other club would have had him sign a non disclosure settlement and get him out the door. It might have cost a few extra bob but you kill the problem. Now it’s going to be the media’s go to story for a long time.

You think we would be experts at handling crappy situations, but it’s amateur hour again

100%

Should never have been named! Benji just gone into negative aura

I don’t want to make it about race, but is it a coincidence that every player who has walked out has been white? Maybe it’s coincidence. Or is it the fact the islander faction are way too cliquey?

Liam Martin would be great
Tough man and a professional
Samuela to middle improves us there

Controversial to say but I feel we need to reduce our islander mix. Diversity has its benefits

Just saw the team this week
Diabolical bench but I think I just found our diversity…….. and I don’t like the look of it 😳

You tell me mate … why is he at 7 this week ?

 

[Wiz]

Douhie will be playing for a new contract these last 6 rounds. I don’t whether that will make him play better or simply hog the ball more.

Well, talent for starters.

So you think shuster is not talented

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Yeah, but talent also requires drive.

Be nice to hear the clubs spin on him playing 7 this week. If they think it will gloss things over, they are wrong. This is not how a well run club would have handled the situation. The funny thing is 99% of the media had painted AD as the bad guy in this drama, so if the club had taken a harder stance they probably would have got a fair go from the media.

I get the feeling AD must have something on the club that the club doesn’t want to see get out the gates of camp Concord
