I'm with Perverse on this one.

I just can't handle seeing him in a Knights jersey any more.

I thought he offered a bit when he decided to just charge forward, instead of trying to ball-play at the line.

That hospital ball he threw to Taia had to be one of the most boneheaded plays I've seen. We're down 18-0, we finally have some possession in their end and he does that...

Won't happen, but it wouldn't bother me seeing O'Donnell come in for him next week.

Costigan isn't as bad as Kirk Reynoldson as the worst Knights "big name" signing but he's nothing special.

It's hard to say. Reynoldson had a shocking run with injuries when he was at the knights. He was constantly in and out of the team due to them. There was a brief stage there when reynoldson's form was starting to improve before he got injured again. I haven't seen anything from costigan to date that shows any kind of form and he's had the luxury of stringing plenty of games together.

Watched a replay of the game vs the Warriors and i think JW was right and most of us were pretty harsh on Nev - he had a pretty damn good game for once. Had quite a few strong runs after a soft start and had a mixed bag with some ball playing with a couple of errors and a couple of ncie touches.

I heard that Bennett pulled him aside for a chat with himself and Bedsy when he was out injured and gave him a pretty honest assessment of his form. Interested to see how he goes.

Nev has been a massive diappointment. He is Ben Cross all over again. Crossy had a blinder in the 2007 GF and we all thought he would be a real success here. For a bloke of Ben's size it was amazing how often he got bent over at the line in a tackle. Nev is more talented than Cross. Maybe Wayne played Nev straighter at prop in 2010 to suit a game plan cos i don't see how playing him wider has benefited us.
