whipping boys

we'll take him off your hands

Speak for yourself Muz, Uate is us there with Vatuvei for one of the most over-rated players ever.

 

[pennywisealfie]

Definitely Jack Reed for us.

I hardly ever see Raiders games but the Fensom hate threads surprised me a bit? Didn't they used to talk him up as the next Brad Clyde?

Unfortunately not even Parramatta are stupid enough to pay for this bloke. Just Newcastle.

It is a Bennett masterstroke to punish the team, town and fans for another season yet.

No one "hates" fensom but he is a contentious character because he really does pump out extremely good stats. Its an interesting debate between the eye sight test people and the stat people.

I think he does a lot of the hard work but i reckon it could also be done by a guy who is harder to tackle than a bag of straw.

Shaun Johnson copping it from a lot of Warriors fans these days

 

[Frailty]

Ricky Leutele.

It's not that Leutele is the whipping boy, it's more that he, until the last two rounds, had been starting ahead of Beale who is the much better player.

Definitely Uate.

Part of it is due to his salary so I can understand that aspect of it but on-field he can't be accused of not having a red-hot crack this year, under difficult circumstances.

He isn't the player he was but still competent, obviously like most wingers they benefit greatly from the men inside them and his best work was done when guys like Mullen and the Mad Dog were firing on all cylinders. Don't know what he should be expected to do with this team, he barely sees the ball and we can barely create a try between the whole team.

Every try that gets scored down his flank gets blamed on him which is just lazy analysis from anyone watching. As perverse said even 3-1 overlaps get blamed on him which is just silly.
