Mortimer has not talent ozzing out of him whatsoever. He trys hard & tackles hard. I didnt realise thats all you need to be a media darling.
He does not put players thru gaps. His short kicking game is terrible. Last year was a fluke. He was signed to big money because he has a surname. If his name was anything else but that he would be smashed from pillar to post from the media.
He has obviously been thrown down andersons throat & it is obvious because of the way he has been protected from even playing for wenthwortville which is where his talentshould be.
Get off the mortimer bandwagon because i never thought he had talent & was lucky because he came into the team at the right time l ast year.
Whoever said lack of communication made me laugh. Obviously that comes into it but if you think that a half back with vision would not have seen that then your deluded
Excuse me, I will make up my own damned opinion. I am not on the 'Mortimer bandwagon', you are just trying to bunch me and all these people who think he has talent, AKA who disagree with you, into a group of fanboys. Stop spouting sh*t. I can say you are on the 'Anti-Mortimer bandwagon', can't I, and I am equally as justified as you in saying that. Stop acting like your opinion is the only right one.
If you think last year was a fluke, then I feel for you. As Joely01 pointed out, he set up a sh*t load of Jarryd's brilliance and was probably the second most important player in that entire run, and any expert will tell you so.
So because I disagree with you, I'm a fanboy....your arguments have noticeably degenerated, if you disagree with me, you don't have to call me a bloody fanboy, that is just you spouting bullsh*t.
LOL... Marginal? What kind of crack are you smoking there? Humble has all the prerequisite skill sets for a player in the halves. Mortimer just runs and tries hard, admirable true, but not good enough. You need to start drawing the line between hard work and results.
Last year he held onto Hayne's dick and looked somewhat decent, this year he's lost that privilege and showed us all that he doesn't suit the halves(halfback or 5/8) at all and that this poor bloke called Humble has had to watch for 25 weeks as his own team gets hammered thanks to the 2 blokes in the halves that can't play there for jack sh*t. Dead set if I was Humble i'd go around Parra making a bloody petition to get me into first grade to try and restore abit of class and pride we lost from persisting with Mortimer, KK and Robson.
Compare Mortimer's initial debut games, when we were losing, to Humble's debut games, when we were winning and losing.
The difference is massive; Mortimer showed far more in his first year, even when we were still playing sh*t, than Humble did when we were playing well.
I have every right to my opinion. Laughing at me and saying I must be smoking crack just says a lot about your mindset; so because you disagree with me, all of a sudden I have to be on drugs? Wow, I know what you sound like right now :roll:
Humble has shown no more this year than Mortimer has, in my honest opinion, and that is what I believe. Humble has been solid at best, and Mortimer has showed more glimpses of his form last year than Humble has shown glimpses of replacing Morts.
Therefore, in my view, Humble is not the better option in the halves; he is, however, the marginally better option at
HALFBACK, because he is still a five-eighth like Mortimer.
Mortimer played brilliantly individually last year, whether you want to believe it or not. You are just trying to justify your anti-Mortimer views by saying he did nothing last year, when clearly anyone who isn't blind or a moron will tell you otherwise.
The difference between this year and last year is FORM and CONSISTENCY, as has been quite obviously shown across our whole team (except Hindy and Mannah).
If Mortimer get's his form back, you will shut up dead straight.
Honestly, you must "be on drugs" if you think otherwise.
:lol::lol:
Wow, that's actually fun insinuating other people are on drugs/are biased because they disagree with me :lol:
Hehehehe
If you haven't figured it out, I'm just teasing.
Just pointing out how childish this argument is getting, from both sides of the conflict-and yes, I am being as immature as they come.
