Just keep to those match stat sheets MX. Your ignorance is bliss.
Im not the one posting stats in here (for a change

You posted the stats on Merrin and Tamou in premierships and rep jerseys. As if those stats mattered today.
Kev is posting that our most expensive player plays less minutes as if that is a good thing. We all know he is easily capable of more.. so its obvious the coach thinks those minutes he is losing are more valuable elsewhere.
The best forwards get more minutes unless they're impact players who go out at 100 miles an hour and get tired quickly.
First Hook benches him. Gives him the last top 17 number. Neither is a big deal on their own. Bench is still important. But slowly taking away minutes from him shows his importance is dropping.
If he rated him as highly as some fans do I think he would have gotten the RCG treatment. Named to start. Benched. Then brought on to play 60 minutes straight. Tamou is fit enough to do that.
Im not holding Tamou up to some impossible to achieve standard. Im holding him to a standard he proved he was capable of over several years at Cowboys which he is yet to show for us more than a couple of times.
That player's still in there. He's at the age most props are in their prime. He's not like Brent Kite where it's a lost cause.
