Who improved and who disappointed

[ROC181]

I mean the fullback with more errors than anyone else in the NRL. The one who cost us the game against Penrith that ultimately cost us a GF position. The same one that went from blunder to blunder in the semi against the COwboys.

I don't expect you to remember when he started as fullback but he had his problems. People were kind to him - though nowhere near as kind as they have been since 2006.

Your pathetic attempts to ride Roger as some kind of revenge for the treatment of your boy won't make any impact at all.

No revenge here mate, just telling it like it was. RTS went missing in 2014. Even an old man like Mini could score more tries than him. Let hope he wakes up cause I don't think that Trent will give him 26 rounds to see how he goes. "Here's hoping Roger blitz them in 2015!!!"

You have really lost the plot Tobin. Maybe you should stick to hanging around the dressing rooms and looking at the player's coqs.

[Johnny Tobin]

my first ignore for ages. Well done.

We'll see.

[Johnny Tobin]

lol

The fact you find that amusing really speaks volumes.

[Guest]

Ignore is for soft coqs Tobin, um I mean Newman. You are a stooge mate but if you feel like a big man spreading rumours and destabilising the team go ahead. You are a very special man. The Insider lol.

P.S. Someone quote me just to annoy Tobin

You mean the Mini that was our top try scorer for 2014 with 17 tries...you know that old bloke? Roger only scored I think... 7 and was 5th. He better be great cause the pressure start as off round 1 in 2015. He's had enough training for the last 2 years so no excuses.

Mini played a lot of wing in attack, and I recall RTS having a hand in a few of the tries.

All said and done, the legend has moved on, and Roger deserves first crack at fullback.

Spot on.. How many tries mini score on RTS's wing was my first thought to that spiel..

Hey I like the young guy and especially how he played last year which is why he made the NZ team but this year, he was MIA. I even recalled that great caller, Rabbs , saying that during the game v the Cows, he wasn't sure that Rog was playing in the 1st half. This year he scored 7 tries. Not good enough from someone in his position when Toupo scored 15 and those other scums from the vermin and Manly close to 20.

I don't think I can recall any highlights from this year but here is hoping for many in the new year.

There were a couple.
I would'nt argue that he had a better 2013, but I don't think he disappointed.Perhaps people had very high expectations for him.I don't see him in the Barba/McGrady style. (one hit wonders)

I hope Trent gives him a full year at fullback.

[Roostarz]

It's pretty obvious why RTS didn't score as many tries...I reckon he'd have managed 20 if he played on the wing for 80.

He was disappointing though. Outside of the Broncos and Sharks games he didn't really show any of the game breaking ability that many of us had hoped for.

I think an entire off-season and playing the full 80 at Fullback will do him the world of good and I believe he will be one of our best players next season.

Our 1-7 looks just as good as any in the comp, if not the best. Friend is going to kill it again, and with JWH, Moa, Guerra, Cordner, Aubusson, Napa, Evans, Liu etc. in our pack we will be up there or thereabouts yet again. It's really up to the forwards to aim up against the bigger teams, because when they do we will be unbeatable.

Souffs lose Burgess and Te'o and without them we would have slaughtered them, and gain Stewart and Grant who are soft as fark, Manly are goooooooooorn, Storm also.

2015 is our year

[Spanner in the works]

I think JWH has gone backwards significantly in the past 12 months. It's not his metres that are the problem, it's the brain snaps and stupidity that does me. He gives teams too many opportunities to attack, many of which completely stop any momentum we had building. He's a liability. Would be happy to see the back of him to be honest.

[Kingbilly]

I even recalled that great caller, Rabbs , saying that during the game v the Cows, he wasn't sure that Rog was playing in the 1st half.

But Rabbs doesn't really know who is playing for any team in the first half or the second .....

Don't forget that teams knew a lot more about RTS than they did last year. They could shut him down more effectively because they knew what to expect.


Over all I think the team improved in attack a bit, but went backwards in defense which I did not like.
