NEWS Interview with Tesi Niu

[Fitzy]

His debut was our 59-0 drubbing no wonder why his career was doomed from the get go.

They're almost clones.

Broncos haven't developed a consistently good outside back since Yow Yeh.

You've obviously forgotten Maranta.

 

[Jedhead]

They're almost clones.

Broncos haven't developed a consistently good outside back since Yow Yeh.

Big Oatesy is heartbroken.

 

[Locky24]

Tesi is still dog shit.

 

[Wolfie]

I think that's a ridiculous take, and an absolutely awful way to deal with human beings. He's not a robot, his mind may be adrift at times, but he's still the best fullback option at the club, it's really as simple as that. No different from any of the other bad players we have who have patches of rubbish form, or just lack the ability to begin with.

I can't be any clearer I don't rate him, but I hope he is getting nothing but support from the club. Football form is a completely different issue and if he's doing what the coach wants, he'll keep his spot, as soon as he isn't, he'll play a level below. The shock death of his father is neither here nor there.

People react to death in many different ways. Some people just never get over a loved ones passing. Its not something you can say is the same from person to person.

 

[Wolfie]

JYY I think would have become a centre, he's bulked out a lot as he's aged. One of my favourite players ever, I'm still crushed by what happened to him and I hate that the club had to let him go during COVID. I hope he's doing well for himself.

Still my favourite JYY try

Still my favourite JYY try

This was the try that really announced his arrival. Credit to Thurston for trying as hard as he did, imagine if JYY put these moves on Boyd haha

 

[LittleDavey]

Still my favourite JYY try

That's one of my favourite tries ever, and definitely my fav of JYY's. The way he attacked that ball, turned JT inside-out... JYY was so light on his feet, so smooth yet so deceptively strong and aggressive like a bull at a gate, just threw everything he had into every play... I have zero doubt he was going to be one of the all-time greats

 

[Jedhead]

That fend on Benji Marshall.

 

[LittleDavey]

Actually it's my equal fav. The other was his grubber for himself around the Canberra winger...just the way he moved, ducked out one side to put the kick in then back around the other side and the poor Canberra bloke just didn't know what to do.

Anyway, way off topic, sorry mods. I like Tesi, if he keeps working hard I really do think he can be a solid player. There's glimpses of something there, and the fact he had an interrupted preseason too, he gets more time for me. I've got my fingers crossed for him tonight though haha!!

 

[Locky888]

Like a broken clock Tesi gets it right about twice a season. He over-hyped himself when he talked himself up and expected more coin but failed to deliver on substance.

 

[Emanon]

Losing a loved one is never an easy thing to deal with. So it is understandable if he is having trouble adapting to it.

But at the same time, surely the club has to have a copy of Webkce's autobiography War Horse lying around somewhere that may be able to help.
