Willow do you think Rankin is the answer at half?
Mind you I haven't been paying much attention to his career….
I reckon if kevvie is out best available team would be
1\. James Tedesco
2\. David Nofoaluma
3\. Tim Simona
4\. Jordan Rankin
5\. Josh Addo Carr
6\. Mitchell Moses
7\. Luke Brooks
8\. Ava Seumanufagai
9\. Robbie Farah
10\. Tim Grant
11\. Josh Aloiai
12\. Chris Lawrence
13\. Sauaso Sue
14\. Dene Halatau
15\. Curtis Sironen
16\. Joel Edwards
17\. Michael Chee Kam
-Rankin good player but isn't a winger and shouldn't be picked ahead of JAC - switch to centre where he has ESL experience - good ball skills knows how to setup his outside man - not dropping him means we can still use him as a goal kicker, has been an improvement over Moses
-Addo Carr at wing because he's the 2nd best winger at the club
-Aloiai in for Curtis to the bench - really happy with how he's been going - 110% effort in every play . makes the bench a bit stronger/more experienced
-Edwards in for Felise purely for defence - gets a 2nd crack looked unfit in the first game back and wasn't great in attack but was solid in D
-Chee Kam to the bench because he has deserves it - also solid defensively and is agile/fast for a back rower, can see him making a few line breaks/creating line break assists for his centre - can also cover backline injury
Most importantly no milone, Lovett or Buchanan and a decent bench for once
I'd also be letting Brooksy know that if he dogs it in defence one more time he will be dropped until he can prove he is up to it. Some of the tries he lets in he doesn't even commit to the tackle and looks like he lets them through on purpose

Pick our NSW Cup side, and then run them out.
Couldn't do any worse than our first grade side. Haemorrhaged points after half time, almost looked like they tanked it.

I cant believe JT last week dropped Addo-Carr and kept Milone.
Addo Carr scored 3 tries in the lower grades. To me that was a statement right there by Josh.
Now that Simona is back to partner Naiqama, Both Milone and Rankin should be dropped.
Speed machine Addo Carr on wing and Nofa on the other.
Brooks is now in his 3rd season with the Tigers. I really thought he would smash it this season.
I feel he needs to mix his play more. To me he needs to dummy more often at the right time especially at back ends of both halves when opposing forwards are tiring.
A good half back scores many tries. To date Brooks has scored one try being an intercept.
Brooks is too predictable. He needs to mix it up. In saying that the kid has enormous potential.
Brooksy has to go on the field with a Tedesco mentality and think he is the best on the field.
Brooks, Moses and Farah need to find the ingoal alot more for repeat sets.
Instead they are all trying to score a try and opt for miracle passes. Not a good percentage option.
I think we are the worst in the competition in this area.
This passage of play (repeat sets) is so vital. JT and Milford are masters at it.
No wonder their sides are on top.
If the ball goes dead then 7 tackles to the opposition shifts all momentum.
Tigers need to learn to be patient and build pressure on their opponents.
Please practice this endlessly at training and perfect it.
In a game of snooker if you play safety on a better opponent, as in starving them, this frustrates them forcing frustration and errors.
Opting for the same strategy the Tigers do not roster a quality side like the Broncos and Cowboys.
However completing sets and perfect six tackle options will see the Tigers dominate territorially.
This will tire any opposition. With the 8 man interchange our speedy backs should humiliate any team.
The Tigers arguably have the speediest backline in the competition.
Tedesco, Addo Carr (if JT lets him play), Nofa, Naquama, Simona and even Brooks and Moses have deceptive pace. Play smart Tigers and these boys will deliver.
IS THIS SUCH A HARD ASK?? DOES ANYONE AGREE?
CAN SOME ONE PLS TELL ME??

Good side. I would like to see what Rankin could do in the halves.
