I'm genuinely interested in answers.
I don't want to see "Oh, I like them all…." or "That guy who plays for the U20's, he sux !!"
If you had to chose, who would it be?

For me, I gotta say **Wade McKinnon**.
He might grow on me over the 2011 season if he can keep himself uninjured but he is currently my least favorite player on the team.
P.s. I'm sure he's a wonderful person, but this isn't about that... lol.

:rant
 
I would say Geoff Daniela just for a dig at you demps - but I would only be joking!

I really don't have a least favourite as such - but I would say I don't have complete faith in Beau Ryan & I believe Mark Flanagan is overrated by the coaching staff and I was annoyed that he obstructed Jason Schirnack's more deserving path to first grade in 2010!

Flanagan is not a bad footballer - but he lacks the impact of Schirnack & is one-dimensional in attack!
 
dangerous thread.

Daine Laurie and Corey Payne were the 2 players that had me screaming at the TV most since the merger

I like the current squad alot, the player who frustrates me most is Lui, he had me pulling my hair out alot! The fact i see potential makes it worse.

LOL! Joke poster?

Don't u ever say a bad word about GEOFF DANIELA !
I wish he was starting winger outside Ayshford.
 
I dont really like to bag our players so Im not going to say anything. There are obviously guys who are more frustrating than others but I dont hate them
 
Tough thread …. I'm happy with everyone in the squad. If I had too choose, I'll say Andrew Fifita looks to have a poor work ethic off the ball and I have no confidence in Beau Ryan.

I saw him at the Catholic Club in Campbelltown at the bar and just hey mate how's it going in a friendly way and he just basically told me to f off
 
Yeah it is a bit of a nasty thread….

Anyone who plays top grade footy for the Tigers gets my support. Sometimes things dont go right on game day but its when you see somone with talent not really putting in that I get peeved.

At different stages of the year everyone is guilty of this. However at this stage of the year no-one fits the bill so I have no answer either.

2010 it would have been the Fitz and before him Dane Laurie.
 
I am not a big fan of Flanagan either. He is too small and we have other/better options in the squad. I get excited when I see a junior on the bench, like MM in the semi final. I would love to see Jason Shirnack getting a start rather than Flanagan.
 
Hmm like most I don't hate any of our players but if I had to choose a least favourite I would have to say Wade McKinnon. I just want to see him get back to his top form from a few years ago.
 
id have to go Bryce Gibbs (because whilst it was the italian festival, He,TNT & Payten we're taking autographs, i went to get a photo taken and just as i asked, B.G got up and walked away :rant )…
&& get ready for it... i know im gonna be eatin alive on the forum now... BUT Blake Ayshford....
... he is starting to grow on me abit, but i dunno, he has never been 1 of my favourite players, i wouldnt say i hate him though :slight_smile:

My mother inlaw reckons that ayshford looks like a serial killer :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
 
I'd probably say McKinnon too. I thought he was a bit of a douche when he played for Parra, and an even bigger douche when he played for the Warriors. Haven't met him, it was more to do with the way he carried on when things didn't go his way with the refs. A few good performances will earn him a page or two in my good book.
 
Why…... ???
Like, who's your least favourite dwarf: Dopey ? Sneezy ? duh!!

And for the players who read our forum, what does this say about their team's fans?
We just sit here behind anonymous keyboards and bag them for the hell of it.....

There's a million good things to debate... and we get another negative thread to throw dirt around....

Such a waste.....

:smiley: Dopey…

Much like this thread

McKinnion is the only real fullback we have....lets see

Moltz....nup
Brown ....Maybe
Mullaney...too early
Meaney...5/8 now Sheens..lol
Keppa...possible
BENJI...why not ...i dont like him ...I LUUUUVVV HIM.......
even saw Daniella mentioned but between him and Lortay out the back ...bomb TRYYY
 
Are we trying to come to a consensus as to which player will become the new Fitzy in 2011?

Come on fellas, anyone who plays FG for us deserves our full support.
 
I don't have a least favorite player, perhaps this thread should have been titled least deserving player in the top squad or something along those lines. I certainly don't have a least favorite player but there are some players I feel are more deserving of spots than others.

Anyway, Beau Ryan is a top bloke but if you're going to play on the wing at around 85kg then you should be able to absolutely lay smoke down the sideline rather than stop and come infield everytime you get the chance to get on the outside of your opposite winger, so Beau's lack of pace I find frustrating.

Same with McKinnon. He used to cover ground very well a few years ago before his knee reco and hamstring problems. He looked genuinely slow against the Eels and I don't think he's any chance of catching someone if they get around him. Brown offers pace and an ability to hit the line harder than McKinnon.

The recent selection of Utai on the wing ahead of Brown, Daniela, Latu and Tagive is also another frustrating sign. I hope he goes hard against the Roosters and proves us all wrong, but he's not lightning quick either so he's really going to have to have a high workrate and hit the line as hard as he can when he's taking the ball up.

He's like a small pallet of pavers on stumps, so he shouldn't have any problems hitting the line hard :laughing:

It's trial time also, Sheens knows what Daniela, Brown (I read he is injured this week?) and Latu can do, maybe not Tagive so much. Utai has been out of the game for a few years now and might need all the match fitness he can get. If he starts getting picked from Round 1 onwards after a bad display in the Foundation Cup, perhaps then we can start questioning Sheens, which we all excel at quite well here.
