None of those were Club Captains they were NRL Team Captains.Hands down the worst, all our captains throughout the last 2 decades have been leaders.
Jackson
Graham
Ennis
Ryan
Price
Britt
Lamb
Then you have RFM ..
He was never captain budWhere is he hiding?
If he doesn’t aim up, his contract should be ripped up. I’m am sick of hearing how nice of a bloke he is. If you aren’t up to the job it doesn’t matter how nice you are.
He is closing in on Sharon Woods level of pea heartedness if he doesn’t perform in 2024.
Also why did James Graham have a go at Davey being out played but refused to name captain marshmallow?
Great post, your description of how he tries to bend(?) the line is spot on. To add to what you've said, when he does that spin/back away he tries to use his arms to push the defenders off rather than his body to actually knock them over which just adds to the ineffectiveness.I've never been RFM's biggest fan. Always thought that he could be dominant if he'd showed more aggression. And early in his career he drove me nuts with the way he'd try to combine ballet with football. His habit of trying to hit the line, spin, back away try to step outside the defenders then hit the line and spin again. By this point he'd lost 5m and been put on his back for a slow play the ball.
He dropped the attempts to be elusive when he should just hit it up hard years ago. But I still think he's been a bit guilty of giving his best primarily when contract renewal is coming up. I recall a few seasons when he's been a noticeably more interested.
But if he can push out around 100m a game at prop this season and maintain a high tackle completion this season he'll be invaluable.
Balls in his court really. I hope he just decides to aim up. I don't actually think he's a terrible player like many do. I just have the opinion that he could've been a beast if he'd applied himself more. Let's just hope his last year's with us are his best.
PM me on here and you shall know the secrets. [emoji23][emoji23]Where do I send a resume for this apprenticeship. There's a few people I could force choke the hell out of at work.
Soft is the word. Same in defence, all grabbing and dragging, no driving the ball carrier with force.Great post, your description of how he tries to bend(?) the line is spot on.

Aaaannndd there it is
No finals in 7 years.Dribbler
You lit up the bat signal, I just answeredAaaannndd there it is
just give it to reed and be done with it i reckonThis rubbish of having 3 different captains has to stop. It backfired in 2023 and it is embarrassing.
Our middles will perform above expectations in 2024.At this point in time RFM should be starting in NSW Cup, considering last seaon. The elephant in the room for the club is that King is reasonable as an NRL prop, but is not elite, there is then day light second. Knight and Sutton were fringe first graders before coming to the Dogs, Hughes and Patolo remain fringe first graders but have youth on their side Edwards and Morrin can't even jag a top 30 deal.
if we can achieve that then we will definitely expect a massive season compared to last year.Our middles will perform above expectations in 2024.
