We find out tonight........

[COACH STERLING]

Rubbish, Finch is miles ahead of Blake. Notice how Finchy isn't doing as much D atm? I think teams are coming around to the fact that his like a brick wall and many are finding it difficult to get around.

Miles hey.

When he tried to kick the ball and made it roll 5 metres it had me in stitches.

Finchy has plenty of potential. His potential is that great, by the time he leaves our club next year, he will rival legends such as Ben Kusto and Paul Carriage.

We should set up a special showroom in the leagues club for these "special players" :lol:

I think its more of a thing of "wanting" Finchy to fail...

Nope. Not at all.

Eveytime he has the ball I scream out his name in anticipation and excitement only to be let down. But I recon his 11 quality bone crunching tackles absolutely make up for all his f**k ups ;-)

not sold on finch but hes better then having jon morris still running around at 5/8.

Thats what I'm comparing it too.

 

[Eelementary]

Ahem - allow me to reiterate:

Drop-outs forced by Finch: 1
Drop-outs forced by Green: 0
Tries scored and/or assisted by Finch: 2
Tries scored and/or asssted by Green: 1


Finchy Is God. 'Nuff said.

And Green is so much better - giving away dumb penalties late in the count...:roll:

 

[jk13]

we're 2pts out of the top four. despite all the criticism on team selection we're travelling quite well. our goal line defence for a majority of the game was superb. green is definitely not quite ready yet. c'mon finchy hold on to the pill and stick it to all the haters. but please please please smack manly a new one fri nite.

 

[COACH STERLING]

IMO he is much better.

Unberf**kinleivable how Finch has played 180 FG games.

Dont rolls your eyes too hard, you'll start looking like Luke Pattern.

well...as sh*t as he is, Michael Hagan, Ricky Stuart, Phil Gould, Graham Murray and Mal Meninga still had him in their side...and i think their slightly more knowledgable than you and I are. ;-)

 

[Eelementary]

No complaints here - how many Premierships has Green won that actually matter, as opposed to Patten?

 

[Eelementary]

And as I say - how is Green better? The drop-out and tries stats favour Finch, as well as the defensive stakes.

I still cant believe some of you think he's going OK.

mate, lets get fairdinkum. I dont have a personal grudge over Finch but you can't tell me his form isn't anything other than sh*t.

Even Phil Gould who you mention above was bagging the crap out of Finch in both the panthers & titans game. Hages doesn't really have a choice with Finch, I see it with a problem he will be stuck with over the next 2 years. A 250K a year problem at that!

Sorry you lost me a bit there. Do you mean cross eyed competitions? :lol:

If your talking about the real deal, then I don't know anyone who has played 4 FG games and won a GF. That might take atleast a season to do.

do you have proof that he's on 250K??

Well, obviously Green has won PL Premierships - but they don't matter.

Patten, on the other hand, has won an NRL Premiership. So yeah - difference.

OK, so you claim Finch is going sh*t. So how is Green doing any better?

He carved up a hopeless Canberra side and has been nothing but solid with a few idiotic penalties given away since then. So how is he unbelievably better than Finch?

As I said - Finch, going as sh*t as you claim, has already set up more tries and drop-outs than Green. Plus he's just as strong, if not better, a defender.

 

[Stagger eel]

also I definitely don't think he's setting the world on fire, far from it but i don't think he's form is any worse than a few others in the team and I don't think he's the reason why we lost the 4 matches we did..

no one has yet to convince me of a better starting 6 at the moment and by the sounds of it Hagan has the same opinion, not that he'd know anything about the game of rugby league.

 

[hineyrulz]

Isn't he on 200k a year, but the roosters are paying half of that this year.

 

[COACH STERLING]

do you have proof that he's on 250K??

No not really.

Its just me pulling a figure out of my ass.

But I'd imagine players with his very elite stature would command atleast 220-260K. I dont know and maybe it's a little unfair for me to talk about his salary but that was the impression I had from reports when we first signed him up.

Am I way off?
