The Problem with the Tigers attack is

I agree there's a question-mark over Reynolds but he has to earn his keep. I think he 'could' be a real asset but he needs the game time to relax into it instead of trying to be an instant success. Chopping and changing with Marshall wont give him the confidence he'll need to make a difference. To me, he's the sort of bloke that needs to feel a part of the team and be a real team contributor.
 
Give Reynolds a go but if he isn't up to it put him in ISP. He does deserve a chance and I think he should start and be given a full game. He looked good at times last season. Still I can see him being another McQueen type signing.
 
Don't hate Farah, in fact, when he's playing well I really enjoy watching him. But he's not the future, Liddle is. Give Liddle the time to grow into the team. If he cant play 80, sub Farah in. If Liddle's injured play Farah. Farah is, or should be, no longer first choice.
 
It sure does, but Farah is still playing well compared to his teammates. I felt like he, Brooks, Matterson and Garner looked pretty decent in an otherwise miserable performance. Lots of players deserve criticism before Farah.
Nofo was bad, Packer and Matulino were dominated, Mbye looked asleep, Reynolds and Benji were diabolical. Yet our problem is somehow Farah? I don’t get it.

It’s not like Liddle set the world on fire when he came on..
 
To be honest, I wasn't particularly impressed by Liddle's performance in the trial and I think Farah did ok but that's not the point. Liddle needs the game time, and to get it Farah has to be somewhere else.
 
I reckon we should field the best team we have. At the moment Farah is better than Liddle. Liddle needs to earn his spot and he hasn’t done that yet in my opinion.
 
Liddle put Garner over. In a similar situation Robbie went himself and was stuck playing the ball on the last.

Dumb & selfish.
 
I guess that's where our opinions differ. Yes Farah has experience over Liddle and always will have until we give Liddle the opportunity to gain it. I would rather watch Liddle make mistakes and grow into the team than watch Farah make the same plays we (and other teams and coaches) have been watching for years, only slower.
 
Biggest issue we can't play off the back of what Robbie offers now

We can play off the back of what Liddle offers

Look at Cook …he is the absolute difference between Souths running 13th or 3rd

Liddle has speed ...genuine speed that we can play off the back of ...and you can play Marshall over Reynolds if need be as it gives Benji time
 
It's not about hate its about the predictability that Farah's game has become.

It's about the total lack of speed in our attack.

It's about giving a young guy who has been hyped by everybody who been connected with our coaching staff for the last few years as the future his opportunity.

I'll take all bets if Liddle had started the game and was given the amount of time that Farah was we certainly would have scored more than 6 points by the time he was replaced.

Last season should of been their swansongs

If Robbie and Benji play 20 + Rds were are in big trouble

If you rated either against the other 15 clubs where would they rank seriously (take your black ,white and tangerine sunnies off for 2 minutes )

Its not 2005 anymore , it’s not 2009 anymore ,it’s not 2011 anymore or even 2015 anymore

Sentiment is nice but it doesn’t win footy games or help us recruit better players in those positions

Benji started playing really bad after about round 10 last year, why we even signed him again is beyond me, Ivan must of known he would be leaving and Benji and Robbie would be someone else's problem
 
God help us when Jacob Liddle actually does something in first grade. The love for him is OTT, you can only assume its based on a hatred for Farah.

100% agree, same goes with Benji, it is 2019 not 2009
 
Really think everyone should take a breathe…if they play poorly when the season starts proper then maybe...but for now we have no attack and if you do base it on yesterday not much defence either..

Simple game plan needed to beat us collapse our middle score tries on the edges blame Nofoaluma..repeat..
