Was sub in the last against Port. Will be interesting to see what his role will be this time around. Go Little Big man Tiger.

If he plays a full game, I would like to see him take on Kane Cornes to assist in negating Cornes tagging role on whoever he is initially matched upon.
 
Everyone at PRO gave a groan when they saw the replay of his injury
Didn't look good at all, and the amount of blood, flog! :eek:
 
Exactly what Nathan is - battler. Should be top of List for trade bait but he is good bloke so stays for 5 more years !!!

LMFAO. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo pace whatsoever. Can't player a player like this against one of the fastest teams in the league. Was shown up again today. Thanks Nath but time to go. Oh BUT you have another year on your contract unlike Whitey who we wouldn't give an extra year on his contract. Whitey loves RFC but he is having the last laugh at D.Richardson (flog).

Gee Nath would be sore and sorry tonight. Hope it heals soon.

He copped one physically but like any professional footballer he will overcome that whack soon enough. Like the other 21 Will he heal soon / ever from the mental scarring of the collective insipid effort of today? I think individually Axel will but question remains is he a preliminary final midfielder?
 
Maybe not Axels best game but did plenty of the unsung grunt when it was needed. Probably worked a lot harder that many of his more illustrious peers. When you are playing in a team with the bulk of players around failing miserably to perform no one is going to look very good.
 
Ouch, poor bastard just can't get a decent run ever since Wallet crucified him and his Achilles.

Hope he starts around. His work ethic and attitude would be great to have in the twos

Lock Lambert in then I guess.

What are the rules for the LTI list and the 8 weeks? Does he have to miss 8 matches if we promote a rookie in his place, or does he only have to miss 8 weeks from today?

If it's a 6-7 week foot injury, I'd rather put him on the LTI list for 8 weeks and have the choice between Lambert, Arnot, and even Thomas as inside mid options in his absence.

Last year we failed to do this with Ivan's 6-7 week injury off memory, and we paid the price with Miles.
