Opinion Captain Super Flop (Powder Puff) RFM [RANT]

[GoTheDoggies]

Where 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?

Somebody had weird dreams of RFM last night..

The hate is flowing through you strongly. I may have found a new apprentice at last.

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.

Find me a captain that takes 0 hit ups in an entire half.

Where do I send a resume for this apprenticeship. There's a few people I could force choke the hell out of at work.

All true. However there is a fair chance we will need him in the middle at some stage. Probably soon rather than later.

Like we needed him last year too?
Many rightly question if he has the stones including me.
Last chance saloon but I'm not at all confident he achieves much, would be greatly appreciated if miraculously you did Ray.

Problem we have is we don't want him and no one else does either. Paying way to much for the dud

 

[Lost Dog]

We tried him in the middle, imo without success. Corey Waddell not the greatest, did a reasonable job when asked. RFM is a specialist second rower and not even a ball playing lock forward. As of our worst captain not sure. He has a good character and leadership qualities which Cameron Ciraldo noticed when being named club captain.

 

[Magic Burton]

Gould re signed him for 3 years

 

[D.O.W.]

I still can’t believe that stat - it’s disrespectful to the jersey, past and present players as well as the fans paying their hard earnings.

In terms of captaincy, the fact that he supposedly passed on complaints about training being too tough to the biggest vulture in league media doesn't do much to elevate his level of fan loyalty.

 

[Bulldog Wrestler]

Captain Cuck, weak and worthless. I'm disappointed, bordering on furious that we haven't been able to unload him, yet. Surely the captaincy is taken off him, at the very least.

 

[Roger the alien]

Has to start in reserve grade, after the lack of effort last year he needs to earn his spot back

 

[doggieaaron]

Well lets give him benefit of the doubt he obviously knows the new regimes standards hence clearing all the deadwood to get guys buying into it ,rfm wont have the same sooks whinging about training etc now hed know no favourites now perform or hell be captain and in reggies

 

[TwinTurbo]

Can we assume that you are talking about last season? Because we have no idea who the Club Captain will be this season. Or even if we will have one.

You do know that he wasn't the NRL Team Captain don't you? Mahoney and/or Burton were and as such made the on field decisions.

I don't recall us ever having a designated separate Club Captain previously, they were NRL Team Captains. So I'm not how he can be the worst Club Captain as there is no one to compare him to. Actually since he could well be the only then then he is the best Club Captain.

The Premiership winning Jersey Flegg and Harold Matts teams are part of the Club hence fall under his role, as are the Bulldogs Tarsha Gale Cup and Harvey Norman Women's Premiership teams who both reached grand finals. All contributing to us winning the 2023 Club Championship, not bad for the Club Captain.


All in all a pretty stupid thread.


Always a Bulldog

 

[Moedogg]

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 ..
