watch many roosters games ink? doesnt appear that way.
Mini has had his best yr in 05, regardless of where his team finished on the ladder

 

[The Devil]

Umm the majority of australian public, including the players themselves do... not to mention the word "Socceroo" is plastered all over most of the merchandise... so i ask again, who the f**k are the "Footballroos"?

meh

Socceroos then.. whatever

Yeah, I watched just about all of them.

I think he was fairly average for most of the year, compared t his usual standard which is high.

Some people will say anything to support their argument. he wont his award, because he was great at all 3 levels, and yes he is clearly the best Fullback in the game.

 

[Iafeta]

I thought Minichiello was outstanding all season TBPH.

Good recognition.

 

[Raider_69]

Mini had a down season IMO, relatively quite by his stands
thats not a shot at him because even with that he was one of the most consistant players in the comp, the quality of his down season speaks volumes of his class as a player

 

[Balmain_Boy]

Thanks for that cliche.

indeed but not by nearly as much as you and your fellow roosters like to think, deadset pubic hair in it IMO

As opposed to some people that CANT say a thing factual or correct to support their argument... they only mention innacuracies and mistakes.

BTW he won his award for one level of footy, not all three......try and get something right for once huh?

:lol::roll:

Yep....thats telling me.

[joel caine number 1 fan]

Fools of the week award goes to these two clown - one player doesn't make a team - but then again maybe they do - and who do you think won West's grand final?? Name the player -?? I thought it was a team effort

of course it was but look at the roosters side compared to the tigers u think Minnichello would shine with all the aussie/nz reps in your side u guys have a huge forward pack yet seems weird Hodgson is wests tigers best player yet people say hes crap hes the most consistsant fullback there is and u wont see him throw a forward pass when its a 3 on 1 like Minni did against the tigers this year

Hodgson out played Minni in 2 games this year but i guess he still sucks cause hes not a rooster

btw newcastle are pretty much a 1 man team look what Johns did when he returned

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Despite doing sfa for 80% of the season.

One of the best fullbacks in the NRL in 2005, and his team's best player
Best player in State of Origin (arguably)
Best international player (probably)

A fair enough selection.

 

[Renowned League Expert]

u guys have a huge forward pack

We do???

:shock:

 

[Tommy Smith]

We do???

:shock:

Of course we do/did...big boppers such as Flanners, Crocker, Fitzy, Ricko, Toops...they're all 105 kg plus!

 

[Balmain_Boy]

Not saying it has anything to do with Minichello, but the Roosters pack IS a big one. Crocker, Fitzgibbon, Morley, Tupou, Cayless, Ricketson, Hannant are ALL over 100 kilos. It might not be a huge pack, but I wouldn't be stunned at someone calling it a big pack.

 

[sasquatch]

Hodgson scored 15 tries, 1 more than Minichiello
Hodgson made 140 tackles compared to Mini's 116
Hodgson kicked 25 times compared to Mini's 14, highlighting Hodgo's greater involvement
Hodgson assisted with 10 tries this year, compared to Mini's 6
Hodgson made 34 line breaks compared to Mini's 18
Despite making less hitups than Mini, Hodgson made 3740m compared to Mini's 3706m
Hodgo made 59 dumy half runs compared to Mini's 45
Hodgson has a lower error count than Mini

And despite being the Fullback of the Year, smashing the point scoring record in a finals series, being the leading NRL point scorer, breaking many scoring records and taking his team to a premiership, Brett Hodgson is not as good as Minichiello.

There you go, the facts speak for themselves.
