, I’d be surprised.

Lots of fawning over him this season, and I really do appreciate his amazing work rate and spread.

But he is a myth.

He kicks helicopters about 1/3 of the time. The ball genuinely spins sideways off the boot. We just can’t carry that.

And his tackling is below under 15s level.

I appreciate he gives it everything and he gives us spread, but I think he does more harm than good and should be replaced.

I know this is negative and he’s been a bit of a golden boy - I do hope to end up wrong.

Blatant holding the ball in the middle. Not paid. Ball goes their way. Goal. The ones not paid kill us.

 

[cartwright]

Not one of those htb? Hm

 

[Max the great]

Our young guys are keeping us in this. Shocking leadership.

A series of throws and incorrect disposals not paid and they go down and mark it.

Can you please prefix this with: "I'm blaming the umps."
Hubnester seems to think nobody's doing it.

 

[gringo2011]

No HTB if you're the Crows.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

No point in tackling clearly

 

[Premium]

Need to be around 4 goals in touch by half time to keep any interest.

 

[Kain26Toad]

Are Sandy playing today? What time?

 

[bergholt]

Sinclair not doing much, presumably Keays is tagging him?

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

From the thread

Steele cooked
Crouch just not damaging enough
Ross extremely damaging to our team
Paton lost
Byrnes not at the standard
Howard delist
Membrey retire

 

[CursingFijian]

Wood needs to lift or run a different line.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Are Sandy playing today? What time?

Isn’t this sandy?

 

[mad-saint-guy]

We're getting absolutely nothing from our two best players in Sinclair and Marshall

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Stats look kind of even EXCEPT meters gained.

EDIT... sorta like Derm just said.

 

[PoppedCorn]

On now

 

[cartwright]

Not a high tackle either

Is Marshall one of our best players? Maybe in SuperCoach

Nah been pretty good most weeks, had a couple of quiet ones. Breaks tackles and takes the game in quite well himself when no one else seems able or willing to

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Howard is s**t. He shouldn't be allowed to kick.

I will point out the narrative this year on the board was “wow look he’s taking on all these difficult kicks and pulling them off good on Howard”

 

[Michael Scarn]

Different holding the ball rule for them compared to us

 

[sauce_head]

Can’t wait until the game is over and I don’t have to hear Mark Richuttos voice.

Some of the biggest ice cubes on this site live on our board. Slightest bit of heat and they're melting down. Wouldn't have it any other way though

 

[bergholt]

Credit where it's due, Membrey did pretty well there

 

[PoppedCorn]

Lol at roma
That was shot at goal

Thays why he cant play fwd
kicking is terrible
