May I diss them?
Yep
May I diss them?
Unless he throws his whole body into the tackle, his tackles are mostly weak and ineffective. He has minimal upper and lower body strength/power. This is why his defence is useless when almost standing still = turnstile.
From either shoulder and regardless of what direction, unless his body is angled at between 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock and he his throwing his full body weight (almost diving) into the tackle, higher up or lower down, he is mostly ineffective.
Joseph Paulo has gotten too set in his ways to improve his defence much further. Hope he can prove me wrong though. I doubt it
Pauli Pauli and Penis Head have far more potential upside to continue improving their defence over the next few years. They have much more intense upper and lower body power they can access. Once they have improved their tackling techniques, their defensive approaches, they will be far more devastating and effective than what we've seen from them over the past few years.
Gower can do what Joseph can do and already is a much better all-round player too. Same with Edwards, same with Watmough, same with a few other forwards.
Joseph Paulo must be moved on. We do not need him. His cap $$$ can go towards our next 3 or 4 or 1 purchase.
Just my eyes. Give your guide dog a pat for me. I love Labradors.The coach trusts him and the stats back it up. What's your evidence other than fixating on a rare missed tackle or the fact he can't hit like Moeroa?
Joeseph Paulo was re-signed for three years wasn't he? Which I thought was a very dumb move
i don't get why commentators jerk off over this Valentine Holmes and always use his first and last name whenever he touches the ball.
it's rare he does a hitup from dummy half and give the forwards a break like every other winger
lazy plodder
If his name was John Smith he'd never get a mention beyond being a solid youngster.
There has been serious suggestions towards Tupou joining us from a few forumites but Tim Simona is all from a Big League article as far as I know.
If you were the love child of John Holmes and Rudoph Valentino you'd wan't some PR to compensate you.
