It's basically abnormal behaviour as most folk would post some sort of criticism once but not daily and or as incessantly as what appears on here and not just about the Hutchinator either
The Butcher Brothers and of Course Coach Robinson to name a few cop this incessantly too.
Furthermore, how can it be 'basically abnormal behaviour' when you accuse 'most folk' of doing it. If 'most folk' are guilty of the same behaviour that you're describing, it can hardly be abnormal - it actually makes it normal. By your very own poor choice of phrasing, it's you and a couple of others who behaves abnormally with your constant defence of the undefendable.1985: 1 try vs Parramatta, 1 try vs Manly, 1 try vs Wests, 2 tries vs Souffs
1986: 2 tries vs Illawarra, 1 try vs Balmain, 2 tries vs Norths.

Can't read either - " It's basically abnormal behaviour as " most folk would post some sort of criticism once" but not daily and or as incessantly as what appears on here and not just about the Hutchinator either
Certainly is abnormal the daily and incessant criticism posts by the same folk - the minority which includes you

I think our fans expect too much at times.
The salary cap is finite, and you will always need average players to fill gaps. Not everyone can be a superstar.
I think Hutch is an adequate utility. He can fulfill a wide range of roles on the field, and do them to an adequate level. In my opinion, that is nothing worth critizising, as there aren't many players around that can do that.

So I, being the argumentative stubborn prick that i am, decided to counter that move by naming Hutch the handbrake.
I will continue to refer to him as that until Sally stops calling him the Hutchinator.
Now the handbrake seems a great guy, and I have nothing personal against him, but i reject statements like yours because I think he is inadequate as a first grade starting 17 player.
He has shown his ineptitude many times, and i feel that he reduces our chances of winning just by being there.

He is a 1st grade rugby league player and I am a member and a fan who pours my hard earned into the game.
If he wants to play professional sport than he should expect some fair criticism along the way, it comes with the territory.
Look at Teddy after origin, he copped what many would say as fair criticism but most of us would say unfair.
Facts are he may help cover injuries etc but we won’t miss him if he goes.
And before queen Sally chimes in with “how many NRL games have you played” blah blah blah. I clearly concede he is a decent league player and definitely better than me but just because he plays professional sport doesn’t make him immune to criticism.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, this isn’t North Korea.
