Blair's at 5!!!!

He's a back rower. His job is to run the ball and make tackles. I don't see how our structure can make this difficult for him?

You can talk but none have played at the top level so a 5 is better than a 0

None of us really have a right to question how hard it is play with WT after years at the Storm. If anything, I think we tend to over-simplify things, and while I acknowledge footy can be a simple game, without knowing the coaching and team structures we simply cannot make a qualified judgement on how well a player is fulfilling his role in the team.

Anyway, I am glad Adam is man enough to stand up and say this. I'm sure we all think he can play better, and for him to acknowledge his performances in this forthright manner can only be a positive. Let's hope he lives up to everyones' expectations, including his own.

he sucked last year as well.even bellamy acknowledged he was down on form and confidence.
that was during a contract year that also finished with a 5 game suspension.
i brought this up last year and the response was form is temporary and class stays forever bs.
at what time can i expect to see some form on the board.
and why the hell sign someone on big dollars when you don't know if they can handle this so-called massive change in style.

How ridiculous, obviously the club and the player believed (and still do) he could handle the change to a new style.. Inglis under performed big time last year at Souths and now look at him! Blair will eventually be fine

Inglis is a pretty poor example. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand why he didn't do anything last yr, it was because he was lost out in the centres getting no ball. He should have been fullback from the get go at Souths, as he didn't have the luxery of getting fed by Cooper Cronk. Lucky enough for them they had someone with enough brains to play him where he needed to play. He is afterall the second best fullback in the world

2\. Only because he has the capacity to recognise his own ordinariness. Can't get any worse though. C'mon Adam.

I think you will find come Semi Final time is when he can really have an impact, almost every time he hits the ball up he is looking for support and most of the time we haven't given him many options there. In close games I would expect to see him slipping a few of those away, when we have Ellis back I am hoping that will be the catalyst to see a bit more from Blair.
 
Look I gave him 12 rounds to prove himself. Giving himself a 5 is showing how he is not facing reality. He has been a 3 at best but Sheens must take some blame for not letting him know where he is compared to expectations.
He can't have fitness issues it must be attitude - or maybe he was always crap.
