@doug-heffernan I have not changed my mind at all. Did it change your mind on him when we got done 74-0 against NQ? Because he played that game.

 

Let me try and articulate my point a little better. I want a forward pack that is so good Twal isn’t in it. That excludes most of last nights guys too. I don’t think Seyfarth, Blore or James are great either.

I think as fans we tend to over-rate our own players. I’m not suggesting you’re doing that with Twal, but generally speaking it’s something we’re all guilty of. 

When I look down our team list without bias, I see Api who is truly elite, Klemmer and Stef who are very good middle forwards and Bula who has the potential to be a superstar. 

Outside of that is there anything really special?

I love Bateman and was one of our best in the first half of the season but lately has been pretty poor.

Ice has been a huge disappointment. Yes he hasn’t been getting the ball he’s used to, but even when he gets the ball in good position he’s not the player he was at Parra.

Nofo is absolutely hopeless, To’a isn’t consistent enough to be a 1st grader and Naden has fallen off a cliff. 

We need to upgrade in a number of areas to become a force in this competition, and that includes our bench.

 

Just my 2c

 

Yes all or most of this is true…. That’s why this organisation has to relocate and reboot. It’s the only option!!

IT’S BROKEN 

 

No thank you 

 

In memory of Geoff Chisholm (1965-2022)

@tiger5150 That's hilarious. I figured the 5150 in your nom de plume, was the uncertainty of your IQ being 51 or 50.

@forever-9th Ah,I knew it. Don't know what a "nom de plume" is. Its ok, go back to bed, you're tired.

Froggy, not sure this is the place to question fellow posters intelligence. Not the "vibe" we are going for.

I get it, It's been another long year- and we are all tired and cranky

But just a reminder - we aim to be a respectful and supportive place - which requires all of us to moderate ourselves.

Let's keep this place respectful please

In the context of rumours of Papali'i going back to Parra, some good positive statements in this interview. Could be twisted but in my opinion seemed genuine.

Parramatta seems to be heading in the direction of Melbourne in that players play above their potential but outside of those systems meh!

papalii hasn’t performed at his Parra 2021 form at the Tigers but he didn’t at Parra in 2022 either. He needs a good half. 

Whilst he hasn’t reached his 2021 peak let’s not kid ourselves. He is the best backrower we have had in a long time

@tiger5150 pretty sure Aiden will know how to utilise him to the best of his ability. Hopefully our coach doesn’t do a season ‘23 preseason and not go with Seizer at 7 and go with the two rookies. Surely not again 🤷‍♂️

if nofo is on say 450k a year we may need to pay 350k to get storm to take him, we'll worth it if we can do it just to get him out of the club

@jedi-tiger I’m not exaggerating when I say I’d just rip up the contract. If he’s in the club there’s the temptation for people to play him. Just write it off and move on.
