Now, now Frank, your anti-TMM attitude is showing again.
Is he wrong though?

Our potential swing on the ladder this week makes me sick.
To finish the round in 4th: We win.
To finish the round in 5th: We lose, Penrith lose against Canberra, Brisbane lose against Newcastle.
To finish the round in 6th: We lose, only one of Penrith or Brisbane wins.
To finish the round in 7th: We lose, Panthers beat Canberra, Brisbane beat Newcastle.

According to Webster he played his way into the team when they played the bulldogs. Perhaps a bit reckless to go for shot he did but I think Galvin surprised a few in that game by being tougher than given credit for

It's so tight I think it's pretty similar for all clubs 5th to 10th.
In reality our current ladder position is slightly inflated - the sharks with their bye 2pts applied are ahead of us right now.
If the bye was added before the round that would be the case, but if we win in this round we’re 2 points ahead when their bye is added
Backing Tanah Boyd for a revenge game against his old crew. The running on the weekend gave me a bit of hope that he's a bit more than a Temu Adam Reynolds.
Surely the only way is up from the 0 try, 0 try assist, 0 line break assist, 6 missed tackles, 72% tackle efficiency, 33% goal kicking performance on the weekend.

I didn't even notice it was that bad, was too busy face palming at how bad everyone else was.
If he gets the nod it’ll be taking the line on those 3 times that gets it
yeah fuck, the small memories i havent supressed of this game are boyd actually running the ball on occasions. had no idea he was that shocking. we cant win the comp this year and im unsure about chopping and changing, leaves me leaning towards keeping tanah in the 7 jersey because frankly i dont think tmm is any better.

From the eyeall test i thought he offered a lot offensively, semed like an instruction from Webby for him to utilise his running game more
He has a bit more zip than I expected.

Hard to be very good when you don’t know what position you are going to fill and then it’s different each week
He was very good at 1 for Bronco s
Hasn’t excelled here due to being mister everything
The way I see it is Tanah brings a good kicking game to implement Webby's plan, average defence for a half, and minimal attacking creativity where he's not able to make something from nothing.
TMM has an average kicking game that means he won't be able implement Webby's game plan, but has better defence and is better on attack, and at times is able to create from nothing.
I think that with all of our outs, Webby is coming around the the point that while Tanah is better suited to his game plan, the players we have currently aren't able to implement his game plan. We're struggling to stop the errors, 6 against and dumb penalties. Tannah's kicking is pointless if we're not able to grind teams down. I think Webby's coming around to this way of thinking....instead of having CNK at the back he's has Taine there for the last month, and swapped TMM in for Boyd against the Dogs when arguably, that would have been a game much better suited to Tannah's kicking.
With Ford out as well, I think we essentially have 3 games here to try and come up with some outside of the box thinking. I think we'll see some crafty selections (I think Kayliss will get a run), and some trick plays and allow us to offload.
Let's face it, the way we're playing at the moment even if we did get top 4, we'd be out in straight sets. I would rather us have these next 4 (3 round robin and 1st final game) playing positively, trying to attack and win games instead of winning ugly with heaps of penalties and errors, then not firing a shot in the finals.

He was great at 7 last season. Was probably the form halfback for that period in the NRL while some were saying he isn't first grade standard, he isn't a half, or he can't lead the team around etc etc
"that period" and how long was that period again? Pretty sure it was less than 10% of a season. Again I'm desperate for him to be the player some people says he is.
