Simon Wiggins hang your head in shame....

[Free Willy]

Its incredible that anyone could do the Navy Bblue No. #34 any further disservice than Ron De Lulio.
Even Ron would be embarressed by the consistent poor efforts of this bloke.
By memory he was picked up within the top 20 when he got drafted.
The well must have run dry very early that year.
When ever he goes near the ball I either laugh, shudder, or cry.

This guy is a total gimp.

His best effort this year was a picture of him cooking snags at the family day at Optus, he probably burnt the sausages as well !!

Probably a bit harsh on Simon. He has been played primarily as a defender throughout his short career and has been matched up on better opponents.

Would like to see him develop as a wingman in the future. He is good overhead and can kick reasonably well off both feet. With the additions of Teague, Bannister and Bowyer, lets hope this will move him out of the backline

He shouldn't hang his head in shame, because he did try. Problem is he just isn't good enough. Or should I say wasn't good enough... because he is GORN.

How many minutes did Wiggins play and when did he come on?
Are you guys for real? Ever since Wiggo came he has been in a **** team, the ball has been going down to him non stop and the pressure has been on him from day one.
He is Gorne is he?
What wiggins needs is a stable defence and time on the ground.
Dont forget unlike people like Manton he didnt have Sexton, Silvagni,. Rice, Dean , Christou,McKay around him.All these guys were eased into a side where they had champions around them.Wiggins hasnt, nor Livo or thornton etc.
does anyone even remember Sextons first 2 or 3 seasons? Or Rattens? Browns?

Get a grip.... oh by the way i see Pagan has picked him again...

Wiggins mightnt play the full season but wiggins will be ok.

Guy's - they got that pick horribly wrong.
He's a dud.
Its what he does when he gets the ball that is the worry, not aboot his efforts in the contests that frequently come his way (in the last 2 seasons in particular).
By memory he was in the same draft that we got Davies (pick 11) & I may be wrong, but I think he was selected at pick 18.
He's a nothing player, at least livingston's got size & can take a mark, but wiggo - he's not even in the Franchina class.

Bah

The kid has done well.

He put his hand up in 2002 and it has been up ever since. He runs his ass off - his biggest issue is that he can rush his disposal, needs to lengthen his stride and slow down a little to get it off to a team mate better.

But he is a cracker half-back... pity we have McGrath, Lappin and Houlihan though.

He needs to show his full wares this year or find a club that's prepared to give him a bigger role in the senior side, because there is one.

I agree, he's a hack!

The best thing Wiggo did on Saturday was cop a push in the back on the Southern side wing, he then preceeded to put in another typical shocker.

Hasn't come on as much as he should have by now. It's hard in a side that is not supporting each other and are under siege but in 3 rounds so far, he has not stepped up enough and the team are all pulling in the same direction. Saw glimpses against Geelong but they were a beaten side by then. Maybe Wiggo is a front runner?

Have backed him in most times, hope he doesn't make a fool out of me and the rest of us.

We can only hope he is being played to keep the likes of Franchina out of the side as we move forward & then will be traded for anything at the seasons end.
Always looks out of his depth.
Too many others desrve a crack & at least 1/2 the opportunities he has been given.

Smart move on the selection panel would be Wiggins out, Boywer in. Wiggins has been given a change, now it is time to move on. No hard feelings, it's about football.

cheers

He is a disgrace!

He is the new Murphy!

Get rid of him!

He's had enough chances!

who cares if he goes hard, he turns the ball over every time he gets it!

Contradicted yourself there. The 'new Murphy' would be quite soft wouldn't he?

Maybe he has filled Scott Freeborn's shoes?
