Solid considering how he had to fill in. And a great one on one tackle defending our line for the game.

Should be very happy with his effort

Looks a first grader hey.

Hopefully can get a couple more games throughout the year to help his development

Yeah I agree. Potential is there.

Can tell he’s the type of player we’re looking for.. wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a key player for the Sharks in the future

Signed until 2023. So they definitely see him as a key player in the future. Good times

Pretty solid game from Tieg last night. Didn't get alot of minutes but didn't let anyone down. Over 10m per run too.

I think he'll probably be the first to get dropped with Talakai going back to the bench if Dugan and Ramien are back next week. Though wouldn't mind seeing Nikora put to the bench and Talakai starts.

He filled in at centre when Ferris went down didn’t he? Thought it was another solid game from the young fella. Not looking out of place in firsts that’s for sure.

Yeah Nikora has to go, we have better options atm.

was solid, nothing flash. teams still need players like that sometimes

wouldn't go out of my way to pick him but not upset if he is there either. tempted to give him more games in place of Nikora who could use a spell

Don’t write off Nikora yet. There is a good footballer there we just gotta get him through his second year syndrome. In saying that, I’d put him on the bench and start Talakai when our centres are back.

Sorry Matty I disagree. If Dugan and Ramien are there against the Eels Bomber must start Talakai in 11 with Wilton taking the bench spot.
He’s not contributing at the moment. He took a pass there at one stage in Brisbane’s half and he ran slower than my ten year old and just succumbed meekly in the tackle. First half, he overran a Johnson pass and spilled it. Can’t have him in the 17 against the Eels.

Agree to disagree Chadleton. But if every player that had second year syndrome was dumped like you suggested then some we wouldn’t of had a lot of very good players in our game. Second year syndrome is real and good clubs help they’re blokes through it.

Chadleton? That’s a new one!

Mate, it’s all about what’s best for the team at the moment not the individual. Bomber has some bloody hard decisions coming up including leaving established players out. Let’s see if he can make the tough decisions. Nikora, Chad and Moylan do nothing for this team at the moment.

I'm not writing him off, he just shouldn't be in the team atm.

Not writing him off, but he needs a reboot. Katoa, Williams, et al style

Agree, not in the 17 for me. He doesn't have the punch. Needs to put on my muscle

Agree Chaddles. It's not like they are doing heaps wrong, more like they are not bringing a lot to the team. There is no 'X' factor about them. Nikora is SJ's one trick pony. Chad is Chad, Mr Predictable with tunnel vision, and Moylan, while he can at times be unpredictable, is predictable in that he will break down with monotonous regularity in the fullback role.

If Bomber gets it right he will leave Willy K in the #1 where he is coming ahead in leaps and bounds, and to my way of thinking loses nothing to Moylan in that spot, and doesn't pull a hammy every second week. Chad is the fly in the ointment and a Bomber favourite, and this is his big decision. He does a reasonable job, but he is holding down a spot where some flair can win you games, and he seldom provides it whereas Moylan certainly can in the halves.

Moylan in the halves and Chad to the bench is win win for mine, and I think Talaki has earned a run-on spot with Nikora to the bench.

agree with Chadwick, Bomber needs to make a call and give nikora some time out of the 17, starts this weekend.

he's not performing this year. hopefully he will come good. needs to work on defence big time.

I don't think Bomber is going to drop anyone from the starting team at the moment. Nikora hasn't been at his best, but I cant see him being dropped.

Black Chadder is right. Reboot Nikora's game with a bit of time out
