Dead set he deserves a massive wrap. Was ignored for years by Sheens despite wanting to help the Tigers. Many fans on here claimed he was a dinosaur and would be no use to us. The fact that he made jokes on the radio, people thought he was a clown.
Sure his comments about Farah were tough. However sometimes the truth hurts. Tigers players were soft and everyone knew it. A few home truths, might have hit the mark in regards to our pack. I loved his comment last week on NRL 360, against opposition packs "it was personal every single week for 10 years". He had smoke coming out of his ears whn he said this. Just raw passion. Our pack is now exactly that, a group that hunt as a pack and make it personal. Who, other then Blocker can we put that down to??
Since coming on board he seems the master motivator. A throw back where its all about passion, fire and just reving blokes up to the max. The fact that some of the guys are scared of him I think is great.
Everyone has given Potter, plus our 2 assistants massives wraps this year. Rightly so, however maybe Blocker has been the man whp has made just as big an impact. Our pack are talking the talk and walking the walk. They are not scared of anyone and are just flat out belting teams into submission.
