This bloke has great potential, unfortunately at the Eels, the coaching used him as a mindless battering ram. Hopefully the great coach that is Bellamy, will have him realise his real value as a wide player with great attacking potential.,
That's actually not the truth, it was Tepai himself who wanted to move into the middle to claim Anthony Watmough's spot after he retired. I specifically remember his presser saying that he saw himself as a middle, not an edge. BA agreed to it because as great as Tep was running great lines as an edge forward, his edge defence was poor. He frequently overcommitted to chasing ball runners into the middle third, instead of staying out on his edge.
Furthermore, he ran great lines as an edge, but he had zero passing skills. He turned himself into a battering ram.
"Yeah like no other club would want that either. Why can't another top team or Perth do it? Cause they wont leave. Ivan ain't doing much with this squad in 2027 with that idea."
"Age hits forwards so hard so quickly. World beaters last season suddenly look like plodders. I'm sure Junior can still fire up for the odd game but I can't see him coming good. His contact was several years too long.

Absolutely, those two tore us apart & clearly had identified our weaknesses.
100% with you on Moretti, not sure what's happening with his mins or is it just he's coming back from injury? As you…"
"Semi Radradra was the player we got the last time we went down that path.
See the thing here is when the Roosters Melbourne and alike continue uncovering these types and we sit on our hands and moan why we are where we are.It's great having numbers…"

Dead set right My Bob, Tepai is still only 25 and should thrive under a smart coach. His wide running was absolutely murdered at Parra.
Wide running? That would explain why Melbourne have signed him as a middle forward then...
Oh ok iamnot, so you have a direct line to Bellamy, er sure ok.
