Message to Henry - Withers is a Hack

[Bay56]

Simple mate ... get rid of him ...

the usual number of forward passes, high passes, mistakes, drop ball at crucial stages .... it was classic Withers against the Knights

the guy quite frankly makes too many mistakes for a dummy half

 

[Brimmer]

Agreed. But all in all... it's round 1. Nothing to get too concerned about.

 

[azza]

I think Henry knows this. It is why he has publicly stated on a number of occasions he wants to recruit another dummy half. Unfortunately, at the moment, Withers is our best no 9, even though he is rubbish.

 

[nickraider]

The whole team was rubbish imo. Losing to the Knights who are a bunch of no names and by that much!!! Total crap!!!!!!

 

[Bay56]

Herbert would be a far better option at 9 ... coming to think of it so would I be :lol:

for everything Withers does well he'll discount it twice over ...

I couldnt help but shout so loud the whole subuub would have heard it after his first pass for season 2008 was so clearly forward ... then he does the inevitable withers by dropping the pill when we were coming back and looking to place further pressure on the K nights.

oh ffs azz ya aint that stupid r ya. tongue ffs. campo at lock and bring on the herbie.

Withers went great in the 14 for the Drags in 04, only time I've really rated his performances consistently. There comes a time when players need to start performing week in week out, Withers should be there at this stage of his career but he isn't.

pritty average game because
it was round one fellas,early days!!!

I'm glad someone else started this thread as I really can't be bothered any more watching this ape f**k up our game plan on a weekly basis.

He is a terrible player and I know loyalty is a two way street but surely Withers is not worthy of a first grade spot on a permanent basis?

Hinchliffe is a much better dummy half than Withers.

 

[azza]

oh ffs matt Tongue is not a great hooker and could not be used permanently in that position, you dropkick. I'd rather Hinchcliffe, if anyone.

 

[Chachi]

Withers was ordinary, but to be fair he was playing busted for most of the game and he was not the lone ranger in the poor play department (Weyman, Miller and Campo had their fair share of bad errors).

Not to mention the sh*thouse refereeing again.

We were crap tonight and I will be pretty pissed if we get worse this season. Didn't help that Zillman went off and Costigan was a no-show.

The Knights were very ordinary and very lucky. If they think that's an indication of how they're going then they're in for a surprise. Both teams were a million miles away from the likes of the Titans this weekend.

The problem with Hinchcliffe is I can't think of him without remembering the time he threw a pass 30 metres backwards out of dummy half....

 

[Chachi]

And Matt, we were BLOODY TERRIBLE when Tongue played dummy half. I don't know what you were watching.

As I said previously Macko ... not a single piece of improvement since Rnd 26

the only highlights were Carney's two passess ...

... our halves just dont combine ... it's like they just met each other on the bus to the ground ... who do you blame for that ... Loz, head coach, I dont f**king know but it reaks of any structure and that quite frankly lies in the hands of the coaching staff.

we were f**king good when tongue came on and carved the middle of the ruck up..what game where you watchin

 

[azza]

After that performance I'd be holding off contract negotiations for a few players...absolutely f**king most woeful performance I can remember to start off a season in a long time.

Carney: 400K pay cheque, right now he's worth 1/200th of that.

:lol:

 

[Bay56]

azza talking my language ... hence my comments that we have structured our cap with far too many ordinary players receiving more than 70% of the cap

management have the perfect opportunity at the end of this season to pay big bucks for big players ... that is what will win us a competition

 

[PRKLCD]

I 1s00% agree - Wither is a hack ( been saying it for a couple of years )

I am up in Newcastle and I am regerting the 6 hour drive!!

Withers! He must hold the record for the amount of forward passes delivered from dummy half - dead set, it's not that hard.

Now, before all the Withers fans come on saying he tackles above his weight - I don't give a F#CK! that's not what he is there for.

When is his contact up? I wouldn't pay 20,000 for him. Let him test the market, cause I swear not one other club would be interested.
