Yeah, our second halfback from Scone, really crucial time in his career and I think his last 2 performances should ensure he has an NRL deal next year.

In memory of Geoff Chisholm (1965-2022)

Hastings out for the rest of the season. Broken Leg.Β 

Carrigan should go for an extended period. Classic hip drop - real dog of a tackle.

Yeah that’s different from saying he could have cost us the game. There were multiple mistakes made by a few different players in the first half so I’m not sure why AD is being singled out.

I’m reallly struggling to understand the dislike for him on here, in my opinon has the potential to be one is the best 5/8ths in the NR

If you don't believe mistakes cost games I cite the Titans game (Madden didn't ground the ball and conceded a try) and the game where Laurie dropped it over the line (we would have won). The vast majority of points against us (and other teams) come from... Β mistakes.

Most on here agree with my assessment of his first half (poor). They also agree with my assessment of his second half (very good). I'm satisfied I'm being reasonable.

He's light years from being the best 6 in the game but he's already one of the better centres.Β

That is terrible news. It certainly didn't look good.

Can add the peach to that list. Poor dummy half work early on but made good yardage with his runs. Solid D as well.Β 

Agreed. He was very ordinary at dummy half - his passing game is poor - but when he started to run a bit in the second half he was much better.

If he lost 10kg he'd be better again.

None of the incidents you have mentioned bear any relation to anything AD did or didn’t do in the first half last night but you carry on with your agenda.

Moving your most influential player out to the centres where he would touch the ball a fraction of the time would be one of the Tigers worst decisions in recent years, and that’s saying something.

Thankfully the club management disagree with you so you, and others who dislike him, should get used to AD at 6 for a very long time.

You're beyond reason. Life's too short.

Who was the other one? As a side note my local team was the Aberdeen tigers so I may need to change my assessment of madden based on this…

I disagree completelyΒ 

His second half performance swung the game in our favour.

The Fox panel after the game were signing his praises.

The joys of a free society is we can disagree.

His first half could have cost us the game. I've not read one comment saying he played well for the first 40 minutes and I re-iterate you can't be sensational playing poorly for half the game.

I prefer to make my own assessments rather than rely on Fox - for any thing on any subject.

Yeah youre entitled to your opinion but the fact you think AD could have cost us the game in the first half shows clearly that it’s clearly not an objective opinion.

It’s simply an example of confirmation bias, you see what you want to see to validate your position,

Β 

Β 

AD could have cost us the game in the first half, thing is he contributed greatly to us winning it in the second.

I must have missed him getting sin binned then because I can’t see any other way he could have cost us the game with anything he did in the first half.

Β 

Two dropped balls and a forward pass early in the count......kicking on the first.

Β 

4 times he turned the ball over to Brisbane early in the count.

Adam Douehi sensational tonight and an inspiration.Β 

I don't want to sound like I'm singling him out but his first half was terrible.

His second half, like last week, was very good. You can't be sensational playing poorly for 40 minutes.

I almost lost my mind at the Benji-style kick on the first.
