Title: Who has been the most disappointing player so far this season?
Post by: Mr Magic on May 01, 2014, 01:53:05 PM
So much expectation pre season but 6 games in, which Tiger has been the biggest disappointment so far this year?

For someone who is supposed to be a leader,  Chaplin.

He has been nothing short of pathetic. No excuses.

You could probably put around 15 names in that list

Went for Charlie the Backline imposter. Since Rance has been out it has really exposed Chaplin as a complete defensive fraud.

No point putting Houli on that list. We knew exactly what we were gonna get from him this year. Same as the previous years.

So far....Ellis....


Grigg

You were actually expecting more?

Agreed.

Chaplin.  Elevated to leadership group, needed to step up with absence of Rance and has been our least impressive of the key defenders all year, under Astbury and an almost as disappointing Grimes.

Ellis

We were told he'd taken things to the next level on the training track etc etc

He is still doing the same things at contests that he did when he first started

Racked up stats last week but where was the quality?

Chaplin....has been woeful this season.
Martin.....probably will be a superstar at another club.
Vickery....nothing but trade bait at the moment.
Grimes...timid little house mouse
Morris.....tries hard but is a turnover king.
King...body is stuffed
Newman ....being gifted games at the moment.
Edwards.....let's just say WAT is right on the money
Grigg...I'll just jump on the anti Grigg bandwagon. Sick of hearing commentators mentioning Grigg/ houli in the same sentence and how great they have been for us.

Agree totally but there are some close seconds.

Who would be 2nd to Cotch in the B&F right now.
My money is Astbury and right now Griff is top 5. But hey this is RFC & The Skata Cycle.

How can Griff be top 5? They just dropped him.

Easy, in the top 5 going alright but can't be having him showing up a favourite (eg Vickery) and goes past him. Can't have that, so it's getting the stuff time  ;D

He wouldn't be in the top 5, doing OK but still a long way to go

It's not about how far you have to go its about how you have performed so far and in the first 6 weeks IMHO he would be in the top 5 of the B&F so far having outperformed many of his teammates.

Orren Stephenson and will be until he finally gets the stuff and lets hope this is his last year.
What a waste of time and money RFC, with obtaining, ON PURPOSE MIND YOU, a 30 year old dud who had only played 8 games. Now that's a stuffing disgrace and evident of where we are headed, down the crapper for another 30 years  :banghead

sheesh we all knew the known duds they cant disappoint if there is little expectation.

a different angle is

gordon pick 50 all i see is a foot soldier at best pick 50 should have gone on a kid.
hampson pick 32 although a known dud based on his his previous 7 yrs i was certainly expecting something real good given the pick we used.

I think what I've learnt with Hampson is that playing for Richmond he has no poo teams to beat up on.  :lol

to be fair, the club is like a truck that all the wheels have come off.

Pretty soon Troy Taylor will move in

Getting a foot soldier with pick 50 is a pretty decent return I reckon. Usually lucky to even get that.
