Brett Finch

[Achillies]

Is there a worse footballer playing in the NRL than Finch? With J Smith leaving Souths i dont think so.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

That was his best performance for the Roosters, ever.

Yeah he probably won their players player award for the 1st time

No, that's incorrect. He got Players Player many, many times at the Roosters.

Struggled last night, but i really think Meteo and he work together much better than he does with Hayne, who should be playing fullback.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

LOL @ taking the player's player award joke serious.

 

[Achillies]

Struggled last night.

And every game since their prelimanary final loss to the storm. As a New South Welshman i am ashamed this merkin ever represented my state.

He has been living on borrowed time since he stopped playing inside Fittler. Only Mateo playing out of his skin can make Finch look good in a Parra jersey.

if you asked last sunday i would have said there WAS a worse player, but since then he has been dropped (finally) so now, funch is officially rubbish..what a boring game..my tipping has gone balls up, tigers (the week you dont tip them they win by plenty, when you do, they get spanked), same goes with the dragons,broncos and eels (so far for this round)

Spoiler: lol/open..up.

 

[Bazal]

There's no worse half/five-eighth, that's for sure...Finch has absolutely no attacking ability

 

[bmwpower]

i reckon finch is a good player. just needs the team to pick up there game

 

[lucablight]

How stupid are the "experts" who wanted Tim Smith dropped and Finch moved to halfback looking? (e.g. Peter Tunks , Bob Fulton)

That was in 2007! Didn't you see his 2008 stats? I reckon last year was his best ever. He was top 5 in both try and line break assists.

Not only did he represent NSW but almost single-handedly won a game back in 2006 -- a try, a try assist and the winning field goal, from memory.

Damn good player. You can't play 200 first grade games without being a good player. He tends to be made the scapegoat for all his team's losses. Hayne was poor last night, as was just about every other Eels player. It doesn't help that he has a winger playing five-eighth outside him.

Finch isn't that bad Ben Rogers,John Morris,Daniel Holdsworth,Ben Roberts and Blake Green are all worse halves then he is

 

[Bazal]

Green should not be mentioned anywhere near the same breath as those hacks...

 

[God-King Dean]

Finch > B Rogers.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

I love how during Finch's entire career the only game anybody can point back to is a f**king Origin game.

Jesus, even Shaun Timmins won an origin game with a field goal.

I beg to differ, Morris can defend and offers nothing in attack.
Finch can't defend and is a liability in attack.

Finch also got the Roosters into the 2004 grand final with a field goal against the Cowboys in the grand final qualifier.

Timmins? Great player, too.
