Benji again was brilliant, one of the best players in broken play, he really needs to improve his consistency with his in game kicking and goal kicking.

this i also agree with, i would even suggest taking the goal kicking off him, its too much next he will be running the water and coaching at the same time...

dont get me wrong i am not a benji hater, i just think the poor guy is depended on way to much then he should be, they expect his brilliance every time he touches a ball... any team he is in needs a quality support ball player that will take the pressure off him. he needs to be able to play a natural game and not try for majic every golden touch.. let him raom. inject himself when he wants to he will be a far more deadly player...

even at club level i belive farah and whoever the decide on no 7 next season needs to take more ball time... but then farrah is just as inconsistant as benji....

As a die-hard Tigers fan I agree that they need a more dominant 7. Thats why I think Moltzen is the answer over Lui. The Tigers problem is Marshall wants to go one way and Farah wants to go the other. They need a 7 that is confident enough to tell them both what way to go. Plus stats don't lie. 8 wins from 8 games with Marshall at 6 and Molten at 7

Totally agree Bobby, Moltzen is the tigers best option at 7, only problem is he such a junior player, would he really be able to command Farrah and Benji around the park?

And surely the Tigers can find a winger/centre who can kick halfway decent... most of them need something to do since they do so little in games!

Perhaps Benji is the _most talented_ player, with potential to be the best, if he maintain himself at his peak?

(Not advocating this POV by the way)

...Awesome win by Sunderland. Especially the goal by Onuoha.... great to watch over and over, that one.

What a turnaround in the A-league... one team went from top of last season's table to the bottom this season (so far), while the two bottom teams from last season are currently the two top teams this season.

Who thinks Kevin Muscat could be in trouble... or should be in trouble.

I've always thought that when someone does something like that, then they should be suspended for as long as it takes the injured player to heal.

yeah i believe that as well but odds on it wont happen..in his statement, he said it was mistimed.. very mistimed... i think that is still an understatement...
