Mine used to be Hodges but it's obvious he is thriving under Bennett and has cut out the niggle from his game altogether as it has never been a part of the Broncos game, so I give him credit for turning things around and I hope he has a successful career at the Broncos.

Mine now is Michael Monaghan. I know he is an ex-Raider but he makes me cringe and fits in perfectly at Manly as a serial whinger. I loved it when Clark pulled him aside and gave him a spray and told him to cut it out on Friday night.

Watch his petulant antics when he gets up from a tackle. He looks like he is about to cry and march his team off the field every time a decision doesn't go his way.

I think he is now a marked man by officials as they expect him to act like a sook every game and have to get in early to get him to toe the line. I think his antics also lead to most 50/50 calls going against Manly (except against the Raiders :lol: ) and ultimately, I believe he is doing his team a disservice with his whining and carrying on.

I use to hate Hodges, but yeah since being at Brisbane, he has changed, and he just plays football.

I hate Crocker and Hopa

Reminds me of a certain hooker that plays for the Raiders...... ;-) the facial expressions are almost identical at times. :sto:

For me, there's 3 players I really have a dislike for.

1. Michael Crocker - Ever since he started playing first grade I've hated the way Crocker plays the game. Touted as a possible future hard man, he comes across as a petulant little child who's had their lollipop taken away. Watch out for whenever he makes a tackle, as the tackled player almost always cops a forearm or elbow to the face.

2. Chris Walker - Crocker may niggle, but Walker just does stupid stuff. Hair pulling, spitting and dumb sledges are all in a day's work, as is trying to punch on with anyone what dares hit him in a good, solid tackle. I suppose my dislike for him is tempered somewhat by his shocking defensive efforts.

3. Luke Ricketson - Formerly a decent toiler, now nothing more than a cranky has-been. Sick of his constant cheap shots.

Honorable mentions to Brett Finch, Joel Monaghan, Adrian Morley and Danny Buderus.

Steve Walters was a legend and one of the best hookers to ever lace on a boot. :D

Honestly, Woolford is nowhere near as bad a whinger these days as Monaghan, or Buderus yesterday. Then again, I can't blame you for thinking otherwise, the Raiders haven't been cited on free-to-air for a very long time.

Crocker - dirtiest player in the game
Walker - people say Mundine has an attitude problem, well at least Mundine can back it up with talent

I've got Fox and he still has a fair go. He has calmed a little - obviously has realised he's wasting his breath......

Woolford and Monaghan have their similarities - though Monaghan does have the very best in Toovey on the sideline.

So basically anyone who wears a Roosters jersey is the most hated.

Very constructive thread Mr Administrator.

It just turned out that way for me. I don't dislike them because they are Roosters, I dislike them because they act like twats.

You have to admit the roosters have some annoying players, the main 3 being Crocker, Walker and Finch. Some people hate morley too but i think he's awesome.

I agree. He is starting to play well again and doesn't niggle and sledge anymore
