Yeh, i admire Tolmans work ethic, but someone has to tell him to give the others a go lol. He does touch the ball more than necessary. Not sure if he needs to stop pushing in to be the receiver, or whether its more that the other players are not doing that.

It was Hasler who instilled it into him and now needs Pay to de-still it out.

If Tolz keeps doing this first half of next year, our coaching staff need a good look at themselves

We have a few players who's bad traits cancel out their good ones. Quite a few actually.

Tolman has evolved his game and now it’s taking every third and fifth tackle hit up. I know he is a work horse but it’s seriously out of hand
It’s pays fault he should of told him by now to get out of the fucken way when the attack play is on seriously.

But why do our play makers keep giving him the ball?

He swoops in, crowds out the guy it looks like is meant to receive it. You just groan every time it happens. He's like a seagull swooping in for chips.

Last night there was a perfect example, we are in the attacking 10, I think a couple of metres out, jmk picks up the ball to pass and Tolman is literally in the passing lane, jmk could not pass the ball and ended up almost handing it to Tolman who ends up wasting a tackle, Tolman, get out of the f%$#en way!! Frustrating to watch....

Death, taxes and a Tolman settler in the opposition 20. Hopefully no longer than one more year of him burning tackles to no avail

TOLMAN is systematic of our problem scoring points. Like the cowboy games, when there are 6 sets near the line, there are at least 3- 4 settlers. Each one is not really expectating to score. With the last tackle being the kick, this usually leaves only 1-2 tackles asking questions on the defence. Look at the great attacking teams, there are asking questions with 5 or 6 tackles of each set.
What needed is more a strategy change in our coaching

Because he does a prime Gallen and pushes himself in between the dh and first receiver. We're also unorganised as fuck so it just happens lol

Some of those runs close to the line he takes any other forward would score but he has zero penetration and it dies.

I noticed that last night and was so pissed off
The dummy half had no option at all but to pass him the ball,
Almost like a scabby 5 year old desperate to get involved
It’s Pays fault for allowing these ridiculous runs by Toleman to continue
Blind Freddy could see it’s not on

He heard the kennel were all complaining about the 4th, so he changed it.
