No problems with Skando as a p[layer and he will try hard and give his all. Problem is he is not better than Moors who has done the same in terms of effort and commitment in every game he has played for Wests Tigers.
The selector is the issue, not the selected

this is about the player and his performance.
judged on the minutes he played.
and those same players can play worse than what skando did monday night.
they already have multiple times this year.

What game did you all watch? Skandalis was one of the best forwards on the park

Does it matter if he played for wests or balmain? sheens picked him to do a job & he did it. some of you wouldnt be happy if we had ingliss in the team you would still be un-happy, hopefully we beat manly on the weekend & keep winning.

This is a 50/50 call .
In terms of Skando being picked i dont blame the Selector
In terms of Ftizy being picked i do agree and blame the selector.
Moors might put in the same effort but its the attitude that is different. Skando is like Hindmarsh and Ellis , might be busted but will take the next hit up or tackle the next bloke.Others shy away when injured and clutch everything they can but our loyals stay to fight the battle.Hodgo was another example.Worst decision the club ever made to let one of their favourite sons go.

Skando's time is up, no issues with his dedication, but when your time is up, your time is up. I believe we have better players in Skando who are younger and more dynamic. If you want him on the field get him to run the drinks out and bark instructions to the players, bit like Joey at SOO.

I could understand "his time is up" comments if he was embarrasing himself on the field, letting the team down or some similar nonsense…..but with a tick over half an hour on the park in season 2010...with none of the above occurring, these comments are just plain bullshyte

If it brings us closer to Sheens being shown the door I am rapt Skandalis & Fitzy are back.
Many posts here remind me of earlier (justified) Cayless threads… Skando seems to have been selected for same sort of role, but he played better than Cayless did in any of his games so shouldn't be copping the same sort of criticism so quickly.
Throughout his career Skando has been more about consistency than barnstorming/enforcer/mega-metre minutes. He knows what needs to be done and usually manages to do it and I thought he did quite okay for us last Monday and played similar to how he always has although Manly will be a bigger test for him. But right or wrong he has been named over Moors/Fafita and if he plays, lets at least get behind him - he deserves at least that much.

For God's sake, the tears of sentimentality are ridiculous, they could wash away a small village. Is he Mother Theresa or Mary McKillop in disguise? The issue is one of recruitment, that's what utterly lost in this admiration fest
Sorry Citizen but my thoughts had nothing to do with sentimentally much less any tears! Quite simply, ANY player that pulls on a WT jersey deserves at least the support from the team's fans - wheres the admiration fest in that??
I suggest you stop reading your own agenda into my comments.
