LU Panthers Forum Player of the Year

[Pomoz]

It's a measure of the bloke and his commitment to the club that he has played out of position for the past month while carrying a bung shoulder.

No argument from me. It's just dumb coaching. Not quite in the realms of when Chris Anderson put Trent Waterhouse at centre for Australia but still dumb.

Round 15

• RCG was Ok, but not for the elite contract he is allegedly on. 86m is just not good enough, especially when you are coming on after the initial forward exchanges. I think he is unhappy and looking to leave.

Funny you mention that.
I just watched the replay and at the end of the game they went to the bench. Kenny, Leota and Winterstein were all happy, animated and high 5ing each other. Krystal was very happy too further back.
RCG was further back standing subdued with just a belated grin.
I assume that shot was the moment after the field goal.

Just pulled it up. Wow he looked so uninterested.

I thought the same.

I know I wasn't subdued after Maloney's winner.

Same. When Naden scored I jumped with a fist pump haha.

Our 1 year old thought the world was ending at that moment.

Maybe we read to much into things RCG is recognised as being a different sort of personality, introverted maybe I don’t know but yes I was taken aback at the time I first saw the footage.

It showed him a couple of times and I think he is just a quiet character. When in form, he let's his actions speak for him.

Closing round 15 midday tomorrow. Update over the weekend.

As my wife pointed out he was very animated during the team song so yes probably reading to much into it.

We really need RCG to find his best in the back end of this season.

The rookie players who have come in recently do well through playing in winning sides.

Many of the players below or just above 5 played in the losing run, but not the winning run, eg Grant, Aekins, Ellis, Fuimaono, Blake.

It isn't hard to see from this list along with the leaderboard which players are the prime movers in this club this season. They are the players who continued to make an effort when things were blackest.

Mansour and Edwards in particular have fought back from miserable starts.

Campbell-Gillard and Leota are prominently placed in the main ranking thanks to their durability, but it can be seen here how far they are behind Kikau, Tamou and Fisher-Harris.

 

[Thirsty Panther]

Geez that was quick.
Thanks frog.
Interesting that the player we let go (Blake) is 19th on that list.

Where is DWZ? was he that bad( ie <5)?

If that was easy could you do a list for the first 10 rounds and then a list for the last 5. Interesting to see how much Mansour, Edwards and RCG improved over those two periods.

DWZ has an average of 4.67 over his 10 appearances. Like several others he suffers from playing through the slump but not the recovery.

If I get time tomorrow.
