OFFICIAL Esan Marsters [Discussion]

Multiple times today he was caught flat footed, it is clear he is NOT a center.

More of a worry though was he was out hustled several times....sharks players wanted it much more than him. 34 yo Josh Morris wanted it more than Esan.

Maybe he can be a bench forward, but he needs a massive rocket.

If he is still our first choice center next year = we won't make the semis again. Simple as that.

Show him the door, he's a dud. Looks uninterested most of the time.
I'm sick of watching his pathetic football

I don't think Marsters has the ticker to play in the forwards. Has the size and ball skills, but definitely doesn't have the drive.

He could take Lawrences place in the 2nd row.
 
No doubt he has underperformed this year. I've never thought of him as a centre - doesn't have, and never will have the speed but he is a mobile backrower - problem there is his defence as he arms grabs a lot which you just can't do.

Garner has dibs on that
 
Also meant to say that in regards to having another overpaid small second rower who can play centre if needed, the Verdict is NO.

Defended him all year but he was pathetic today, rather bring in Mbye or Talau to partner Momo


100%
Marsters is rubbish

I’m a big fan of this guy, but he was pitiful today.


You’re a big fan of Esan.. he doesn’t even like himself so that says it all about ya... why not support the coach and one of our most successful ever players today? Poor form!
 
Esan was ordinary. I am sick of him getting into dummy half, stepping 3 times and making 2 metres. Run onto the ball like every other back in the comp.

He will NEVER and *cannot* tackle
 
If the rumours are true about him being unhappy at the club, he should hang his head in shame, for having his nose out of joint, yet letting in the tries he did today.

That’s exactly what I’m saying. Nobody can think to defend him here, it was woeful and I carefully inspected his 1% plays pretty much all game, so am therefore qualified somewhat to make comment, playing under a coach like Michael Maguire, with it all riding on our final game of the season and that’s what was dished up. Has the potential to start a poor culture and obviously already should’ve received his rocket for this year... if he isn’t showing more hunger and desire by the end of training in the next few weeks then cya. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200,000.

@Tigerboy That was a very poor performance today from Marsters ! His urgency on such an important contest says it all to me about his attitude to be frank very poor !
