"There was a couple of times he ran out of the line when dolphins were started the set. Just found it funny how he would do that but we have forwards who couldn't even make a tackle let alone provide line speed. "

Although everyone notices and remembers the line breaking forwards it is players like Timmy who take first hit up into solid line of defence. By attracting a couple defenders and getting quick play the ball it allows the line breaking forwards do their thing on 2nd and 3rd tackles.
Timmy doesn't always bend the line, get offload or get quick play the ball but does on occasion and is consistent.
A lot of forwards have 1 good week 1 bad week but Timmy puts in every week. I have no doubt BA has some KPIs such as hit ups per game, and metres made that Timmy would be achieving most weeks.
His leadership is another huge bonus and although not the most vocal on field leader, his work off the field with younger players and dealing with media and sponsor commiments is outstanding.
Think you have get over your Timmy hate snake.
As for 12 year olds in bankstown, a group of 20 kids picking on 1 or 2 people at a time while carrying weapons isn't tough in my eyes. Playing over 200 first grade games in toughest footy comp in the world seems pretty tough to me though.
