Victor Radley v Cameron Murray

[Jacks Fur Coat]

There is no way I would swap Vic for girlface Murray.

[Inflictor]

Never seen Rads stay down trying to milk a penalty.

Different toughness between the two.

[SamKerrSimp]

That will happen when they have owned us for a few years now

We have bigger fish to fry than worrying about South Sydney and Isaah Yeo is better than both anyway

[ChookMaster]

People on here are way too obsessed with all things South Sydney

At the end of the day we are their bitch… lol pains me to say it but they own us and by the look of it are in our fans heads too rent free…

[ChookMaster]

On radley….. He has fallen into this mentality where he has assumed himself this role of starting bifs and being the alpha dog along with JWH. Why? Go back to your older days of playing skilful footy and making those desperate try savers and big hits. What makes him so tough by running in and grabbing a bloke by the jersey and doing sweet FA?

Murray will be the premier lock in the comp as long as he plays, that’s just a fact. He is too good of a footballer and realistically I can’t see radley developing to the point of overtaking Cameron.

I hope he can redeem himself next season and put himself in the top tier of locks though.

They’re different players… Murray is a quicker more skilful runner… Radley is a tougher harder hitting enforcer

Radley is fine… this whole idea that your lock has to be some brilliant playmaker is well over rated

The benchmark… Yeo… is a very solid and very reliable second receiver but he’s hardly Magic Johnson on the fast break

Exactly mate!

radley would probably have played origin if not for injuries etc. i reckon he would have been great in a blue jersey and i'm looking forward to watching him playing in the world cup

I am sure in the last 10 years we have lost more games against Souths than we have won but I am happier to have 3 premierships 4 minor premierships and 3 world club challenges which is the bigger picture we play for premierships not the Ron Coote Cup

Yeah Murray belongs in the BSB... along with Munster, Pap and Grant. Don't care if they can play footy, they're not ours.

Why compare a Souffs player to one of our cult heroes?

All these comments about JWH & Rads losing their heads, and needing to take anger management courses.
I actually feel sorry for them.
They are clearly playing, outnumbered.
I think of the "Other" team , and I can count 2 absolute grubs in their backline, one in the halves, and 2 forwards who have a resume, and a history, of cheap shots.
That's just for starters, I haven't done any real analysis on the rest of their team.
Does anybody else think JWH and Rads are at a distinct disadvantage?

There’s absolutely no doubt they are refereed differently.

Radley copped 8 weeks - one-third of the season - for three incidents that were barely penalties last year.

Does anyone seriously think JWH would have received “the benefit of the doubt” if he’d produced that Burgess hit on Latrell? Burgess had been sent off for a high tackle shocker only a month or so ago, too.

You only have to look at how many “on reports” Jared receives that the match review committee ignores completely to know refs go out there with preconceived ideas about him.

[Team Evil]

In Rads own words Murray has always been better than him since they were 6 years of age. I've been saying for years that Murray is Souths most important player.
He has the quickest play the ball in the game and a great defender and is virtually their half-back.
He is one souths player I can't dislike, Latrell and Cody are great players but are complete tossers this bloke isnt.
I love Rads but he is behind Murray, Yeo and Carrigan as a lock.

‘This

[NorfolkStreetKid]

Radley's nickname of Inflictor has done him more harm than good. He is too immature to handle it, and now thinks he has to put big hits on in every tackle and that has affected his overall game, which has not been as good for 2 years..... he needs a mentor to get him back to concentrating in being a ball playing lock.

[Timmah]

At the moment Rads resembles Reg Reagan in a Roosters jumper. Unfortunately he is often the victim of his own passion and loyalty to team mates and its hard to be completely critical of such traits, but he does need to find the balance quickly.

He has also been hobbled by injury and suspension the past couple of seasons. On the suspension side of things he has been dealt with unfairly. Yes he has committed infringements but he has received harsher penalties than like offences committed by other players.

I still think he can be one of our greats and I'm backing him. Hopefully he reassesses and resets during the off season. If he does I think he can close the gap on Murray and Yeo pretty quickly.

BTW, not sure if its been discussed on here but the sit down with Jake Duke - Victor Radley, Whatever It Takes on Kayo and Fox is worth a look.

Agree 100%……if Victor had pulled off the chicken wing like tatola did against the sharks, he would have got three weeks….how the F does tatola get off scott free?- because he’s a vermin player, and the nrl love those gate takings that the toothless, unwashed vermin supporters bring to finals.

[DP1990]

Can’t compare Rads to Murray. Murray is hardly injured, never suspended and a real leader on and off the field. But….. Rads has 2 premierships.

Thirteen, spitting hard facts !
