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?
:bow

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

He has been nothing short of pathetic. No excuses.

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
Caracella and Balmey.
