Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2624588, member: 1899"] I'm going to go with more general opinions and mostly about things I see in the community... [B]Scapegoating[/B] - It's probably my biggest pet peeve in the game at the moment. It doesn't matter if it's a bench player, a referee or the NRL itself - it seems like any problem in the game is completely their fault and that no conversation can ever escape that vortex of mediocrity. As a Broncos fan, the one that always gets me is that the forwards could be absolutely rolled in the middle of the field, our fifth options could stink and the players can throw all sorts of loose and dusty passes yet somehow Todd Lowrie or Lachlan Maranta who had bugger all to do with the game are the ones getting roasted. Fair enough if you think they're not adding enough but I very rarely hear somebody argue an alternative. It's just this player sucks...speaking of alternatives... [B]Blooding Rookies[/B] - This could be a little tricky to describe because obviously you need new players coming in otherwise the game is going to dry up and die - but I'm sick of the obsession fans seem to have about blooding some player they've probably never seen play the game before all for the sake of change. I believe in player development and blooding players at the right time, not just for the sake of doing it otherwise you end up juggling too many youngsters who just struggle when the going gets tough (eg. Eels 2013, Broncos 2010 etc.) Unless somebody can really make a good case as to why such and such should play and can point to examples of their quality moments I just tune out because to me it's just white noise and people venting.
