Great game last night by the big fella! Plenty of metres and tackles...

As is indicated in the fact that his regular knockers have been a bit quiet!

A few weeks ago he had a bad game against the Warriors, only making 50 or so metres and everyone called for his head...

Well Hindmarsh made less than that last night, but do we think he should be sacked? of course not, everyone has bad games, but lets try and be fair and not use scapegoats!

He's nothing. Two out of how many games this year he has stood up. Don't give me this garbage that he is a good player now. He should be standing up most weeks and he doesn't. It shits me that when i watch other teams there front rowers run hard and get good metres and ours always struggle. Just like Pearson last night. Vella playing a 4-5 good games in a season isn't enough to make me continue wanting him at the club. Sorry

He has played well after his knee and sternum injuries. If you havent notice this bloke loves the club and he has never played uninjured. Not like other cats that take 16 weeks for a hamstring. He is truely a clubman. And he has stood up when he has needed to.

We get dominated most games so give him a break. Smith sees quality and leadership.

Stands up when is needed aye? You call the Warriors a game that we didn't have to stand up to. He's got nothing. Face it! I rate him in the bottom quater of props in the game.

I think Vella should go back to the bench next year. That's where he first came into prominence as a player and perhaps him goin back there next yr will do him good.

Spare me Adam. :roll:

If you are happy with someone who puts in 4 or 5 times out of 17 games, who is also on mega - bucks, who stops every time he gets to the tackled player, who is the second or third person into the tackle, and who hands out freshly cooked muffins to his opponents, well I would assume that you are also satisfied with our current predicament........13th. :roll: :roll:


Give me a break.
The guy is an absolute bludger and should be moved on to somewhere like Wentwotrhville or Ryde-Eastwood. Or Manly.

Well........there you go Adam.

It seems that not too many people share your thoughts regarding Vella.

As Phillips said, if you wanted poisitives, you should have started this thread three years ago.

Vella is one of the most overrated front rowers in the history of Rugby league and should have a contest with the other biggest pussy front rower in Josh Perry and finally see who is the biggest Powder puff of them all.
