The Doueihi Take Every Ex-Star Commentator Won't Make

Footy IQ breaks down the Adam Doueihi situation at the Wests Tigers — and takes a different angle to most of the coverage. The guys argue that most every current NRL commentator or ex-player in media was a 300-game star, and their idea of what "being a team player" means is shaped by never having to sacrifice their spot — a perspective most guys in Doueihi's position never get. We cover the full timeline (the Luai release fallout, the team-sheet snub, the judiciary hearing, the 56-10 loss to Canberra) and make the case that Doueihi could repair a lot of the fallout simply by admitting it was an emotional decision and that he's genuinely invested in the club.
