team vs tigers

Kaufusi has done nothing to enhance his reputation in the first few games..for a guy of his size he is not stamping his authority in any phases of the game whereas Brett White can bust them in the middle of the park and this is what Kaufusi should be doing.

ffs mike....someone needs to get of his high horse.

Because i think a player isnt as good as you do then i do not support the club? thats the most ridculous thing ive read. So if i was to say jamie feeney is the best bench player in the world then you HAVE to agree coz if you dont thats not being supportive? as a supporter of the club i can be critical of some decisions and players. Mindless bagging? pffft.

AK is a good prop...sometimes. But we have been told for years that this giant of a kid is an awesome prop who will rip it up...and all you can come up with is 1 good performance vs warriors? (he has played more games then that i know)

Im not saying he is totally sh*t...he has potential, he is huge and is hard to stop as he has proven many times....the back end of last year he was GREAT but he needs to stop being a potentialy good prop who plays some good games and some bad ones and be a consistently good prop...like brett white was last year.

IMO, im allowed to give my opinion right mike? Cross, and Scott would make the team over AK.....

Brett White has been the same as AK since coming to us..... He is very inconsistent...... come to think of it he rarely has an "awesome" game.... he is solid just like AK and does what id neccessary....

GT is very average imo...... too small to do anything..... rather a bigger bloke who can actually get fast play the balls and the defense on the back foot....

It really fascinates me sometimes how human beings (with all our simularities) see things differently...... also it disappoints me that some peoples opinions, (which are as meaningful as mine), are in all honesty off the mark.....

So.... ive say that we should not have a go at people who are fellow storm supporters.... if someone else posts something u think is stupid lets not get into a big hoo haa about it.....

calm discussion is the best way to get peoples points across.... what do we all say!!

white inconsistent? maybe this year but surely you take into account that he has had a hamstring injury. IMHO white was one of hour msot consistent and best players last year.

and it isnt really a big hoo haa....but noone has the right to say that someone isnt postively supportive the club because their opinion is different...i love the team as much as anyone...but that doesnt mean i have to think ALL the players are the best...some do need improvement and thats a fact.

It was not written by me FFS. Your intrepretation is quite astounding.

No but I wouldn't bag you for writting that. :D

Well thats the way it appears. I call it as I see it.

How about the Roosters as well then. :roll:

I don't think he was that great at the end of last year tbh.

The part in bold is so true. :D
Even Chem was left alone by me. :lol:

I'm also not the greatest admirer of White also.

ah k. your obviously full of it. i never shot down your opinion about AK....anything ive said about AK i have used 'IMO'... the only thing i shot down about your post was the fact you think because someone has a different opinion then they arent postivley supporting the club.


Try getting of your over critical high horse and positively support the club.


but from now on we must all think like mike. If he says someone is an awesome prop....then who cares what YOU think that player is an awesome prop.

You think slater had a sh*t game on the weekend? but mike says he played awesome then screw what you have to say because mike is right!!

ok let me set my opinion straight....

I really like White... while he has been good sometimes, people tend to get upset if he plays bad which commands more attention from myself and others...

AK goes alright.... i agree with Shadow that he needs to make that step up after having some wraps on him for quite a while now...

Mike, let it go mate, your time and effort is better suited to other threads/topics... ie FFB, rival teams threads etc

Shadow, people are mistaken and things get misinterpreted.... moving on now ay boys....

So, back on topic..... lets just hope we see an improved storm team this week..... Bunji has to be targeted in defence...

i've always thought that AK has potential but last week 4 hitups for 31 metres for a starting prop. that is ordinary never mind the suspension. especially considering we had lots of injuries.

Paranoia will only get you into a clinic one day. Your've shown a tendency to lean that way on many occasions. :(

If you say so ;-)

Note that I think that it is a weak cop out to over dramatise everything out of proportion. :|

White plays it hard and tough week in week out but Kaufusi just looks like a big lumbering giant playing at 70%.
