Josh Aloiai

Honestly has there been a game that anyone can remember that Aloiai played well in?

He was MOTM for the bunnies in round 4

He has a few good runs here and there but then he goes and drops the ball two tackles later

He dropped it FOUR times tonight that I remember

Cannot stand this guy, why are they interviewing him all the time, not a Manly junior

Stick to boxing Josh or maybe A grade on the Central Coast somewhere.

When Aloiai was re-signed he was showing he could be a decent bash and barge prop for us, no-nonsense, good leg-drive/post contact, says all the right things... The only issue at the time was that we'd only seen glimpses of him due to ongoing injury/suspension.

Re-reading page 1 of the original thread, it's has reminded me that he is not the player he showed glimpses of

link: Josh Aloiai re-signs until 2025

To be fair he was only fluctuating between starter and bench prop and wasn't really expected to be more than just a dependable, competitive prop in the forward rotation. But nonetheless, he's been a liability more often than not from mid 22' to now. The more games he strung together the less we needed to see

After the lawnmower man put his name back in the headlines, he has morphed into an increasingly slow, lethargic, error-prone version of himself. Dry as a bone at the moment.

It's really hard to envision what our recruitment model was over these last few years with Mestrov punting the Fultons being described as a 'change in our recruitment model'. Revisionist me would say he shouldn't have been re-signed, but it clearly was warranted at the time. Hopefully he doesn't stick around unit 2025 though fmd

get rid of all the tigers players would be a great start.

 

[winnyason]

Full **** player

 

[LeonardCohen]

It was poetic that the last play of the game was another handling error from Aloiai. His best attribute at the Tigers was leg speed and he seems to have lost it. He’s had his knee strapped since the day he got here and appears to be unfit.

I usually don’t come on here during the game but came to say the same thing. He needs to go. Bully is worth a shot at 13.

This should have happened 3 weeks ago, Bully deserves more minute and the verbal diarrhoea needs time playing for Workers, very inconsistent player.

 

[globaleagle]

Don't worry...

He'll make up for it "10 times over" next game.....

 

[robbiea]

I would like to see players dropped when they have shockers.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Someone in the outfit decided that Marty Tapau wouldn’t last forever and so we needed a new Marty.

Job done. Marty’s legacy lives on.

So hi to Marty II.

Q: Why are we laughing?

A: It beats crying.

 

[Peter C]

If this useless bloke plays next week I’ll fume is seemenbold kidding

100% he'll play next week, why?, because our depth is so $hit

I would "rest" him next week, but that's the problem isn't it. No-one else is demanding selection.

Shame Sipley is still suspended although I'm not sure he is the answer either. I think Sips needs to be managed throughout the season to have an ocassional week off/in reserves to keep him fresh and hungry for success. Seems to play better when he is not guaranteed a spot in the 17.

 

[KNUCKLES]

That was Des.

Yeah but Des doesn't sign off on the contracts though.. people still at manly are responsible as well

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Still kills me that we let Fonua-Blake go… and as well as getting NOTHING from the Warriors in return, we got Oshay as his replacement.
