[Dannevegas]

Not to mention he looked more like a stunned mullet by the end of the season. His confidence was shot as he had no idea on what to do in defence. It looked like if he had two options, he would choose the worst/high risk, low reward option.

Credit for his awesome 23 season but he’s living off that reputation atm. He’s been pretty average outside of 23. 20 year old Tamale making him look like a little boy was the final straw for me. Ive said this a few times but we need a few young arrogant pricks in the backline lol, Leiataua and Kali are good candidates as long as they can get fit.
Players like Dwz, Berry, Pompey and Charnze tend to start moping around when they’ve been showed up.

 

[Five&Last]

Maybe should spend more time working on things that will help him out on the field.

Don't you know that everyone who power lifts becomes as good as Isaiah Papalii
