    A dismal performance yesterday, rag dolled when returning the ball, and jarring every time he got involved in attacked.

    Bombed a try for Tupou by passing too early, and you just know even if he's sniffing around for a Sonny Bill offload, and manages to catch one, he'll do nothing in terms of getting through the line or sparking anything

    He must be moved to Roger's wing, or along with poisoning any attacking play he gets involved in, he's a real chance of coming up with a Tuqiri-like clanger at some stage in the finals
    Totally agree! When their winger made the break Mini was coming across in cover defense and should have got there comfortably and made the tackle! But instead he made their young winger look like Usain Bolt!

    Stop being nice, Mini is past it! Either sit on the wing or move on!

      They usually do when anybody dare question Mini's position in the team.

        No.
        So, it's Mini's turn again for the weekly whipping boy.
        Geez, ist week back. He's gone to the top of the class.
        Lol yep here they come!

        If we are to be any chance of winning the damn thing this year it has to mini at full back.

        Sheck would get eaten alive there in the finals I fear.

          A few here fail to acknowledge the way Mini put his body on the line yesterday.
          Solid, in a team that struggled.

            I don't think anyone's questioning his commitment. Was there anyone who didn't "put their body on the line" yesterday?

            It's more about his inability to not only create anything in attack, but the fact that he just takes the spark out of any attacking play that he gets involved in, even when his role is to be nothing more than a link man. And his kick returns are the least effective in the comp.

            To beat the good sides in finals, we need a fullback who asks questions of the defense, and Mini doesn't.

              Not arguing this, Tony, but Roger ain't there yet.
              Mini is the safest option we have this year.

                Look, you are probably right however I believe we will have the worst fullback out of any team in the top eight (Bulldogs equal worst with Barba out).

                This is a massive disadvantage given how crucial the position is.

                His positional play is still good however as tony pointed out, he bombed a try due to his inability to ball play, which is a massive requirement for a fullback in today's game.

                When was the last time he held a pass when a hole was there to run through? 2005?

                When was the last time he broke a tackle or went through the line? 2005?

                It's 2013.

                Was a great player and that's how I want to remember him.

                  Any news on whether Mini has re-signed for next year yet? The last I heard we were looking at a one year extension.

                    Told Gibsy and Brandy last week that they just need to cross a few T's and dot a few I's. Nothing signed yet but not far away.

                    Interpretation: If we win the GF I will probably call it quits on a high note.

                        Yes lets put the slowest player we have on the wing, bravo.

                          You should just go the Burrow right now you filthy grub. Get behind your captain and your team. This is real life not Supercoach. So many farwits like you constantly bagging our team. FFS we are in a match to win the minor premiership next week and all little bitches like you can do is complain.

                            Teriyaki,
                            IMHO you are out of line. All Vasco did was offer his point of view.
                            His view I do not agree with. I agree more with your thinking. But mate, lighten up on the insults. We are all Rooster fans, after all.
