Pre Season Game 2 V West Tigers Game Assessment

i do like that the edges didnt looked panicked facing an overlap like they have over the course of the last few years

It was like we even trained for it, and we all know it isn’t the coaches job.

Doorey is a reserve grader at best if he plays more then 5 games we are in massive trouble.

Got no idea why we gave him another 2 years another puzzling extension that didn't make sense at the time.

I assume he took a pay cut for the extra year but that's not the point.

It clogs up top 30 spots with garbage you dont want to be using

Doorey is a sloth. A lot of the players look much fitter this year but he’s not one of them.

Doorey is garbage. Shit defender and poor hands. He’s almost 25, only played 33 games with a win percentage of 24%. Genuine reserve grader.

For a team that didn't review attack you'd think they'd be exceptional at defense....

He missed 2 tackles, Williams missed 3 tackles, Hopgood/Matterson 2 each, all 3 have shit load more experience in the middle at NRL level then Doorey, who is only just moving into the middle position.

Doorey had a good shot on bird

He just can't defend, been happening for a while

Yeah I reckon Doorey is a smokey to be a regular off the bench. He’s always been powerful but just lacked the agility for edge defence. I assumed he didn’t work hard enough for the middle but he went hard in this last trial. If he can play like that every week he might become a first grader.

What’s his WPYSA18 or whatever the f**k you called it?
Everyone has seen he can be an awesome edge runner, his problem since we signed him at least has been he makes poor initial contact in defence and has no fitness so is constantly left on the ground.
I don’t think making him a middle will fix it enough plus it negates his strength in running. I reckon what we’ve seen so far in his career is what he’ll achieve going forward
