And he played just about every game and rarely performed below par. Won us a game or two with defensive efforts from memory in a lean season. I’m not going to be down on a bloke for not being thrilled at a club running last with a bullshit management who torpedoed the coach. FFS.
Idk. I actually found it funny when Sheens tried to play 05 style for the first two weeks of last season. Then he realised “……shit“. One thing is not the same as the other.
Seen the footy IQ that he had in the squad and reverted back to Madge ball. Then went and started to tie his own noose.
It certainly seems like you dislike him... I knew who you were talking about long before his name was mentioned.
We finished with the wooden spoon - he was a part of it. I don’t see how we can be worse off. His highlights package is a combination of his tackle on Nathan Brown, looking like an overgrown Bruno Mars and having a chin to challenge Nathan Cleary. Further to this, I wil not miss his chicken legs.
You always bring up his tackle on Brown. Fact is it is just one of his dominant tackles, a skill very few in our squad possess. His highlight package also includes changing momentum in our favour when coming off the bench in a few games last year and number of offloads. In fact more per carry than any other player in the NRL last year whilst keeping his metres per run and errors better than the league average.
To re-iterate....
Great post BB.
That's true but I was disgusted with his lack of effort on a number of occasions last year. We can make the same argument about Munster for Storm last year, who had a below average backrower in Loiero and Olam out of form, but there is still individual responsibility. Top players taking it easy only sets a bad standard for the young guys, in fact it's better to drop them to cup if they don't change their attitude in games
Look, not everyone can or should be the center of attention.
Olam did not have 15 try assists? He had 2, counting his one in reserve grade.
He made no secret of that mate. Told us all there was no lofty ambitions, it was a 3 year plan and they’d only be signing players Benji wanted moving forward. The only people who seemed to not know it were his bosses who freaked after 5-6 weeks.
I didn’t see this but we all see the game differently. Thought Paps was an honest player and he won us at least one game against StGeorge with desperate cover defense.
Well, Benji and club management agree with me. Which makes you wrong.
That doesn't make me wrong, that is a classic example of an appeal to authority fallacy.
Lol 3 things have got to go right for you to be wrong…
Lol, i suppose if Olam goes well here and our team performs then Blore could be great for Melbourne but the trade still be a win for us and thus me wrong as well.
