Was in the members section last night and when Fitzhenry was announced in the side a large portion of the stand gave a massive booo- all tigers "fans" ...was almost as big as the booos for Hayne....

Love him or hate him- you gotta cheer the bloke on or at least hope he has a good game.....

Lowest of the low to Boo your own player- its not like he did a Sonny Bill on us..... Boo sheens if you don't like it...but not a player who has been very loyal to us...

I was thinking about this last night... I simply can't understand booing a player who is having a crack for your team. There's only ever been one guy who hasn't put his body on the line for this club.

Teo's heartless displays deserved booing. As did the efforts of Moltzen and Ryan at Dairy Farmers last year.

Booing a player during team announcements is terrible form usually done by pea hearts who would only do so in a group and never be so critical to a players face with the possible exception of if they had a skinfull

Very well said.
Poor form from those "tiger" fans.
Must make him feel real good.
Christ,the poor bastard is human.

I wonder if he ever reads the forums.
At least he knows the detractors are genuine.
Imagine being patronisingly put up on a pedestal and over rated like a 7 year old whos dads his greatest fan constantly.
He's been turned into a laughing stock by those who purport to support him.

While I dont agree with booing your own, it does say something

It's not cool to boo players....no matter how crap they are. Booing dumbwit coaches who pick them, that's another story.

The players do not pick the team so its no fault of theirs if they are picked in the team even if they are way off the required standard. As for Fitzy, showed real ticker against the chooks and will be a handy player when injuries and maybe rep selections kick in. With all players on deck he will struggle to make the bench but you still dont boo him

Yeah, thank god that's not us he's line-breaking for 60 metres or smashing through for trys for. Bronson too. Who do these talented wide-running second rowers think they are not doing the dog work of props when they could be bludging out wide waiting to do something in attack.

Round 1: Cowboys only looked dangerous when attacking their left when Teo was on the field.

Round 2: Strong game in attack down the fringes again but defensively lost.

Round 3: ROFLMFAO at Too Tough's performance. The worst of a terrible side

I did.

Couldn't give a stuff about Te'o, he's a lazy pea heart and we don't need him.

Bronson, I will agree 1000% with you, he was killed and mismanaged by Sheens and was always going to be a very good player. Bronson is also twice the player Te'o will ever be.

He deserves to be booed, he is f**king hopeless and a waste of our salary cap.

Fitzhenry doesn't deserve to be booed. He might not be Ken Irvine, but he played in a premiership winning team. Club legends like Pearce, Elias, Raundonikis & Dallas Donnelly never played in a premiership winning team.

Just because they didn't win premierships doesn't mean they were lesser players, nor does it make him any better.

Wally Lewis never won a Grand Final in Sydney yet he's an immortal.

If you ask me, that argument is plain dopey.
