The team scapegoat

[Engine]

Who is your teams scapegoat? Who is the guy your clubs fans like to blame for a loss?

 

[imasharkie]

it is and always is Brett Kimmorley.

This year its either the entire team, or the ref (as much as its a cop out). Couple of games the refereeing has just been atrocious though. Anyway. Even though I said entire team, Shillington, Mason, Perrett usually get a few mentions.

 

[Ari Gold]

The one and only..... Hegarty

 

[The Gambler]

Shannon McDonnell, followed closely by John Morris (although this has stopped after he was moved from the number 7).

Also any young player who comes into the side when we happen to lose. They are often crucified.

Hmmm we seem to be fairly loyal to most of our players so far this season but with that said:

Ennis - He's prone to making stupid decisions in critical moments. Fans realise though he has a ton of talent and apart from those bone head moves is a vital cog in team. Others see him for what he is...a grub.

Boyd - Doesn't add anything to the performance.

Parker - Ineffective/blows oppurtunities left and right.

Clinton - He's no Petero.

Sims - Who?

Manihera - Only a select fair few (me) can actually see he's an incredibly average winger with no speed or finishing ability. For that he gets crucified double by me.

The end.

Oh wait:

Robinson was a favourite among everyone for his inability to catch a bomb. For that he was crucified for ages...

rovelli, with good reason most of the time.

Tupou gets mentioned a fair bit lately re sloppy handling and dumb penalties given away.

 

[Angry_eel]

Lowrie, Burt, Tautai, Grothe(deservedly)

 

[Chook Norris]

shillington, roberts.....imo

Jared Maxwell and Ben Cummins (sif this little weed aint a Souffs fan) :lol:

I dont think most Roosters fans blame any of our players any more, Funch is long gone

Most of us are FOFF'ed out i think ... we won

Yeah, as I said, though there are some players that frequently make stupid mistakes, usually not game-losers. It's usually a sh*t performance from the whole lot. Braith and Fitzy are usually exceptions, top notch all year.

 

[roopy]

Wicks or Houston for the Knights

 

[Canard]

Shouldnt this be called the Brett Finch award?

Yep spot on, and O'Meley and Myles and Sa have been brilliant all year too. How we miss them. But yep its the whole team overall we blame i think.

 

[bmwpower]

JASON RYLES lol

 

[DragonPunk]

Ryles, Gasnier or the ref.

I think so too, although Anasta, Pearce and Mason seem to cop a majority more, even if they're doing alright.

Used to be Lincoln Withers...but now he's out there's no real stand out at the Raiders. Maybe Tilse because he doesn't use his size as much as he could.

We've had some of the all-time greats though, Bulgarelli, D. Howell, Brad Drew, Tyran Smith & now Withers.
