Douhie cleared to play. 

I reckon Latu will get off too … but I reckon Doueihi and Luai will be our centres on Saturday 

 

Luai at centre? Doubt it.

@joel Here’s the problem Latu  has no idea how to tackle never has how many concussions has he had ! The club needs to employ an assistant coach  that has the knowledge and experience to teach these younger players the right way to tackle .. obviously this is not being done at present and to be frank not much is being done by the assistant coaches about anything hence the appalling way the team is playing . This situation alone highlights the void at the club atm with coaching !

What a joke of a decision. Thompson contributed to the accident by trying to bump off Latu. That’s a bad as the Korebeti ‘shoulder charge’ all those years ago at Leichhardt.

Doueihi has apparently pulled the pin on playing this weekend after being told Andrews and Luai will be the halves.

He should be in the halves with Andrews and Luai to the bench to start the game. 

That said, you play where the coach tells you. 

Defeats the purpose of going the the judiciary now if he doesn't play. 

Never a quiet day at Wests Tigers.

I disagree with Doueihi not agreeing with the decision of Benji to play lock or bench. He should always put the team first. 
But this again shows ups Benji inexperience the way he handles things. He has blown up the season and made us a laughing stock all over  again. Doueihi believes he is a half signed for unders and now will get out of his contract to Perth!

If he wants to behave that way I’ll personally drive him over the Nulabor.

Oh God, this club. AD behaving like this, immature, unprofessional, shoddy. All descriptions that suit him AND the club. And it looks like it was leaked pretty quickly. Bottom line - you play where you’re picked. End of story. 

But all that said, it’s a weird call by Benji. Now we have two left footed halves. AD’s shoulder looks like it’s not great, Twal is very solid at lock, so putting an unreliable defender there is odd. Luai to 14 made more sense. 

After being too conservative Benji has done a 180 and looks like he’s throwing anything at the board and hoping something sticks. 

Knowing how mentally fragile our team is, this is a sure sign the boys will be a rabble on Saturday v Canberra.

But surely this was discussed before they went to the tribunal? Anyways this is Marshall’s doing I reckon as AD isn’t a poly and part of the bro crew🤷‍♂️. Just another chapter in the WT journals here 🤣
