Tom Trbojevic was a Legend

[CRPSI eagle]

I’m looking hard, I can see Tom but not the legend.
Let’s save that type of status for those who have earnt it and deserve that accolade.
For those that have played and won grand finals but most certainly not Tom who only averaged 10 games a year.
just my opinion, time for Tom to retire.

He is weak…paid to much..injured majority of the time and highly overrated

Did people expect him to take 3 hits up a set, jump into first or second receiver for the other 2 plays then put up the kick and chase through and catch it himself ?

It’s wild that people expect him to have a top level performance, let alone dominate a game, behind a non existent pack and halves that were nowhere to be seen last night

Pleasing part tho, ran out with no leg strapping. Ground was wet underfoot, so that would of hampered his running somewhat. A dry track should see him running stronger and faster next Sat night.
Sounds like a form guide for a racehorse...LOL.

It isnt wild with the money he is on. I dont expect him to do all of the above, but others might.

But hang on, he was sometimes taking 2 hit ups a set... no need for that. That is the coach failing him and the team, it's obviously in their game plan.

Neither Jake or Tom are worthy of the current contracts anymore. That is just life as you get continually injured ad get older. IMO opinion Tom will never be more than 70% going forward.

People forget Olakau’atu is on big money as well, his consistency isn’t great at the moment, and the Eels rookie backrower overshadowed him big time last night

How many times did Arthur give him ball, let alone good ball.

People that think that coaches do not make any differences to their players or their team or their Clubs culture .
Also need to look at the way Some coaches over achieve with their Modest Playing Rosters

The Quality Coach Proof has Always been ...
Winning is not only about what Quality players you have
Winning is all about lifting your players to their potential and having them playing a Quality style that wins games

The Moral of the story
Coaches do make a difference
They either underachieve or Overachieve

Arthur was Dreadfully poor
How many times has Seibold seen him at NSW cup Level ?

Our best option to cover DCE would have been Turbo 5/8 Brooks Half
A Fit Hoppa to cover at Fullback

Arthur was terrible.

Tom was a superstar. I wonder where he is now?

With sadness I say we are not a top 8 side. Our middle defence last night was at times embarrassing against the side that was running last. If we keep putting in efforts like that we are a chance for our first spoon.

But, but hold on ...... our owner thinks we are on a ****ing premiership window ....
