Why can no-one else see this? The WORST player in the NRL, quite simply, is Ben Ikin. He retires and Brisbane holds street parades. Guess what? He's back. Comes onfield against the Storm after a flawless defensive effort by Brisbane thus far, and they score 4 tries in 20 minutes. Of the hundreds and hundreds of injured Broncs, why COULDN'T IT BE IKIN!?!?!?
Bet he'll be hoisted shoulder high for a victory lap this week. By the Cowboys.
Retire for good while Lockyer still has another title in him!! YOU DROVE GORDY OUT OF LEAGUE!!
Any other teams got players who are only around because they're married to the head coach's daughter? No, thats right, he played Origin too. When he was 18. Years ago. Back when superleague was robbing the talent...
I have a small group of dedicated follwers believing in the downfall of Ikin, can anyone suggest a way to *humanely* get rid of him? Or failing that, anyone want to poach him for next season? He only eats up your salary cap, displaces young and much more talented players, gives away penalties like they are candy, cannot hold a ball in two hands, makes small children weep in loathing....
I look forward to the day when he retires again. Then we can look forward to him coming back out of retirement and costing us some more games, maybe a grand final or an Origin series... No wonder Phil Gould gives him such a big wrap...
We'll swap him for Hodges anyday. Name a player, we'll make the swap. Hell, name a 3 legged, blind, half-crazed snail and we'll gladly play him at hooker...
Barry Berrigan, Ben Czislowski, Mick De Vere, Craig Frawley, Brad Meyers, Scott Minto, Nick Parfitt, Brett Seymour, Dave Stagg, Sam Thaiday, Motu Tony... All not in the team or injured. WHY NOT IKIN?!?!!?
I smell a Roosters conspiracy, they've been paying Ikin to keep playing..
bah
Come on Queensland, winner of this game for premiers!!
