TEAM LIST Trial 1 vs. Warriors

[Vicious]

Your reserve 2nd rowers are Kepaoa and Laulili...Matamua has shown nothing in first grade and Seyfarth has been nothing but a guy that has a go.

You're an optimist. I'll give you that.

Scott Sorenson was nothing but a guy having a go for many years, now he’s a 2 time premiership winner.
I don’t know where this misconception that every player 1-17 has to be a superstar comes from ?
With a Salary Cap to abide by, not possible to have 30 superstars in your squad, although some dodgy NRL clubs have a red hot crack at it,

Seyfarth showed genuine progress in his game in the back end of last year. One of not many. I think he's yet to hit his ceiling.

Ha! Salary code to abide by. Thanks for the laugh.

Yeah I saw it like that too, an increase in his aggression and his running

 

[hammertime]

Bateman, Papalii, Kopaoa, Laulili, Seyfarth, Matamua…could be worse.

We're missing Fainu from that list.

We just need that strong #3 to emerge behind Bateman and Papalili

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

We just need to believe in each other. On the field.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Then we are strong. 2005.

Developed a pass as well

I think Laulili will be better for it after a full preseason - he has pedigree as an Australian Schoolboy and in a decent environment and a few early wins you never know what can happen. I think Kepaoa was a decent backup second rower this year (just a terrible centre and even worse winger), as was Seyfarth towards the end.
Matamua is a stretch, I agree. Here’s hoping.

True - forgot there. I think the depth is decent if we can get some early momentum.

 

[Bigscreentv]

I don’t think Kepaoa will ever play centre again at the tigers unless we lose 4-5 centres due to injury.

 

[Todd Packer]

Fainu.

I’m certain that Samuela Fainu will have it covered

 

[hammertime]

As a comparison, the Bunnies still have Chee Kam as depth. I'm willing to give AJ one more shot. If he can hold the ball, he'd be decent.

Im not saying your wrong but what are you basing that on? I'm sceptical after seeing Fainu get dominated physically in his own age group despite being the biggest on the field

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Developed a pass as well

That was the standout of improvement for mind was his ability to offer something that other forwards didn’t which gave us space.

He actually showed some promise in limited time before being pushed into the backs again.

Having a dedicated off season to train as a backrower and hopefully Benji sticks to him as a backrower this year then he has a chance to step up.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

And we know all this after he has never played a game for Wests Tigers? You guys are good.
