Rumours and Stuff

I think this is very 80s/90s view. Same as people saying all league players have no respect for women. I also call bullshit.
I'd say a higher percent are decent humans with normal intelligence if compared with general public.

It was a joke, you penaut!

But seriously there are a lot of dumb footy players.

Nicho is barely a Doug Flutie

Nicho is the Jimmy Garoppolo of the NRL.
Good looking bloke, the ladies love him.
Was an understudy at a top team, then moved to another state so he could be the starter.
Won some games and looked like a very good player. Got a big contract. Then ultimately began to get exposed as not that great.

Nicho Hynes won a dally m because he’s a nice bloke, the chicks like his looks, and he comes with a sad upbringing story. Rags to riches, family issues blah blah. He had an average game, but oh he’s so nice, better give him 2 points.

He’s not in the top 10, or maybe even 20 players in the game. Lacks the mental fortitude of the greats who could overcome challenges on the field and off it.

Nico can also Matthew Chimpy Johns for his rise, best PR job i've seen in ages.

Should he be actually considered a premiership winner.

If Aaron Raper isn't considered an Origin player for sitting on the pine 80 mins why is Hynes considered a premiership winner for doing the exact same thing in 2020.

Agree. I am often underwhelmed watching his contributions.

Who’s the real Doug Flutie of rugby league, maybe Brodie Croft in recent times?
Doug Flutie is better than that. I think Nicho is pretty apt. Won a high level individual award early in career, had decent career but never really reached the heights of that award, and ended/probably end up doing some spot media work because of their pretty schoolboy looks

If he's in the team he's a winner.
Jimmy G has two championship rings, so Hynes fits the comparison well.

I don't reckon he'll make it, but it's cool that he's still in the NRL system. He's too old for Flegg now, so this is the year for him. I hope he proves me wrong but I also hope he fails so I can be right.
Typical Pou, fence shitter. Having a circular argument with yourself. Wonder who'll win?
