Martin tapau in last 2 weeks

Doctor phil no. Can we do a lounge session to talk
No Dr Phil session, my Mum died of a brain aneurysm a few days ago man, and I'm still getting over my dad dying 3 years ago of cancer, and three weeks later my brother in a motorcycle accident - whole family wiped out now.

So yeah, I'm struggling - and that's why I meant life's too short. I wasn't having a go, I was just trying to share some perspective.

Anyways, rip away - I don't have the energy - you win. No lounge session necessary.

We have had our differences old mate, but that is more than anyone should have to bear.

Best wishes and hope you get back to form quickly ...

Ryan, buddy, mate, fellow Silvertailer,

Every one of us on here are with you in thoughts.

Deepest condolences to you and your family , life's tough at times, believe me I know that from what we are going through.

Hang tough buddy, and yes I agree Big Marty definitely isn't a pussy, been one of our best in the last two games.

Sorry for your Loss Ryan,condolences to you and your family mate
 
Thing I don't get here
Kapow is the last bloke alongside Jake to have a crack at....coming in for extra attention ATM due to - Stop Kapow- stop Manly ....and teams like Storm who get a jump and win 90% of wrestles with numbers, will continue to make him their focal point.
The other fowards need to lift and aim up
Hey Ryan - thoughts are with you mate
 
I agree that other forwards need to step up and support Marty. That said, Marty is an aggressive leader of the pack and we need him to lay the platform. He has struggled to do that recently. I was surprised he had the metres he had today, because watching him at the game he just didn't look anywhere near his peak form self. He was not hitting the line with venom and determination as we've seen him do. It looked psychological more than anything watching him around the game today.

I should also add that our disjointed disorganised attack, which is easy to spot as we start playing laterally, doesn't help Marty at all.
 
Tapau is a marked man, similar to what happened with Fifita in SOO.
Without support play and decoy runners, his brute strength will do damage but good teams will be able to nullify his go forward. Especially teams like the Storm who will attack the ball when he's fighting for post contact metres.

Frankie W, had high hopes for him, tall rangy backrower. He has to be playing to instruction surely.
Nobody could have such a weak workload without the coach having told him to stay out wide. Hope Sirro comes back soon.

Tommy T, There is still a fair amount of immaturity in his game. He's a precocious talent with untold potential but he's still working his way into the NRL grind. Getting the errors out of his game and building consistency. I was kinda glad he wasn't picked for SOO this year, I think it may have been too soon.

Anyone at some of the latest games can see that the boys are grinding, players down on form, niggling injuries, etc. These are all building up and dragging us down. We just need to stop the bleeding and get the toughness back in the line. I think the Riff game was the one that broke our back.

.....

At the end of the day it's just a game.
There are way more important things in life, my heart felt condolences Ryan I can't imagine what you're going through at the moment. Be strong and know that our thoughts are with you.
 
@Ryan words are not enough @:cry:
