Re read what I put in bold "provided he's sorted himself out." I don't know the ins and outs of his breakdown granted but he hasn't been convicted of anything so I'm not sure what you're holding on to. We'll just have to wait and see how he plays when/if he gets back on the field before we can give him an honest appraisal. I won't hold my breath either way.
I'd say you're reading too much into what I wrote or reading with too much emotion. I started off by saying he had a good game, which would have been a very good game if he'd scored another try, great game if he'd scored 3/4, brilliant if he'd scored all 4 and even better if he hadn't been penalized twice.
That was Reynolds game last night, no agenda, no BS that was his contribution wasn't it? Out of curiosity, whose fault was it he knocked on? I'm not holding it against him, hard to avoid - but he literally was the guy that knocked on.
I think you're being overly sensitive man. We've missed Hodkinsons game management, kicking, goal kicking, cool head and drop goals.
I don't mean to be over sensitive. It just goes my head in that people don't spotexiate ond of our best gonttivhyirs week in, week out. If Reynolds doesn't play last night, we lose. It's that simple imo. And yep, you Gould say the same for Frawley too.
I just think he had a very good game and honestly, I find it a little sad many people on this forum would take just about any half in the cook over one of our best and most loyal players.
I to think a lot of experts see the value in Reynolds. He's the type of guy players love to play with. I just think he is ridiculously undervalued on this forum.
I did read what you said about Foran. I just think considering he has had so many well documented issues, knocked back a precious offer to play here in order to play for a coach he'd really wanted to play for only to derail that club's entire season, his connections to Hayson. I thibk adorable has too many problems yo turn them around in such a short time frame tbh. I honestly think the potential he could do our club harm is much greater than the potential he'll do us good. Honestly if we let Reynolds go and sign Forsn I won't support us (or anyone take) next year.
I don't mean to be overly sensitive, but yeah I to feel very strongly about this.
I still don't see what you saw in Hodko. His game managing abilities were largely a myth I think. I saw him take the bull by the horns, steer the team around and play well a few times but more often than not, he was under involved, didn't seem to be enthusiastic enough and seemed to be playing in a body that was 90 percent broken parts. I don't think his kicking skills were anywhere near enough of an asset to justify the mediocre performances he produced for us while playing a key position most of the time. His kicking game in general play was not good most of the time. He had a cool head and iced a few games for us, but honestly I don't think he's kicked any more field goals or rob us any more Holden point/ 1 point games than Reynolds has. I'd have to check on it...In short, I just don't remember the same player you seem to...and you obviously don't think Reynolds is the player I see him as... we're all entitled to our opinions I guess... but I honestly think Reynolds offers us much more value than Hodko ever did and he offers more than Mbye has to this point.
The knock on? You mean the one where he grounded just before the dead ball line after getting a little touch on it? Oh come on man, he didn't even appear to be playing at the ball at the time. Yeah it was a knock on, but I don't think you can really say it was his fault when he put himself in a position to score a try that never really should have been scored in the first place. I think you're a harsh marker if you blame Reynolds hot getting a little touch during an effort play like that. Easy to make less handling errors if you are less involved and font put in the effort I guess.
I don't think i'm mental dude.... ex players seem to really like him and so do his teammates. I think he's a guy people like to play with.
