Wests Tigers v Manly TRIAL ..*Spoilers

[jadtiger]

Whatever happens tomorrow just be thankful we don’t have to support the drag queens....some of their supporters have already lost faith in Griffin after getting thumped by souffs

Wasn’t pretty was it.

It was beautiful..
Just a shame it was Souffs .

Latrell Mitchell is worth a mention. Looks 10kg overweight but can still beat a man with minimal effort. Don’t like him much but got to admire his skill level

He needs to change his eating regime and training habits or he could easily become another Owen Craigie despite his talent

Did you know Greg Inglis was 110kg in the height of his best fullback years.

Despite what size you think Latrel should be he is a naturally big boy and would of spent his entire life learning how to still have balance and acceleration as a big body. With match fitness he will be fine. Not sure why people think he needs to look like David Peachy to be effective.

Latrell will be talked about as a top 5 player this year... he's only showing half his skill set with his playmaking at the moment. Once his running game picks up again he'll be unstoppable.

Best way to try slow him down is to kick to him all night and hope he tires out and isn't as damaging up the other end of the field

Sorry, why are we talking about LM at all, never mind on the Manly v WT thread?

Other people were talking about him so I threw my two cents in lol. If you haven't noticed these threads rarely stay on track ?

Agree,he is a talent, but can he retain that speed which is crucial as a FB? He looks a little slower to me,but that may just be due to his fitness.

1,6,7,AND 9 . Its not each individual that we need to star, its the combination of all 4 that is important. This will only happen with game time. Don't expect miricales too soon.

I didn't realise the Wests Tigers have a NSW Cup side?? Who are the Magpies playing then???

They don't. Just another stuff up - funny that Manly could get it right on their website.

I think I agree with you although it would be an awesome sight to see him in peak physical shape. Having said that an extra 10 kegs just makes him more imposing coming at u at speed.

Yeah I’d say so. I think it’s just his body shape. His never looked typically athletic but I think he looks fit this season. I’d be surprised if his heavier than last season.

Yeah . . . in the far depths of my mind, I vaguely recall the faint possibility of maybe one of the commentators briefly mentioning something sort of along those lines.
I think they were talking about Latrell, but it was so brief and general that I can't be sure.

He is coming back from a hammy tear
It could very easily give him grief this season
Especially with the extra weight

Hmmm , I don’t remember Greg resembling a bush a grade front rower though . Maybe during preseason , but not 2 weeks before round 1. I’m sure everyone is telling him the right things , it’s up to him now. At some point natural ability gets over taken by hard work , for every player . It’s harder to get out of bed , harder to get to that kick etc. Age , wear and tear , Fitness , all play a part.
Look I wish he was wearing our colours , but I think we are watching a guy who in 10 years people will ask what happened to his career. He will win stuff , sure , but he’s got immortal potential , and anything less than that is a bust . Especially because , he would have been the reason for it . Not injury, or bad team fit , or coach or anything like that . And it’s kind of sad to watch . Just like it was with Owen Craigie.

My neighbour was a mad keen StGeorge supporter
I say was because he moved out a month ago
He knew this day / season was coming
Poor bastard
R.I.P my old friend
May God be with you all

We know his pain only too well?
