Message: [QUOTE="Mr Fourex, post: 2513341, member: 7980"] [b]Re: Rumour - Peter Wallace returning to the Panthers?[/b] Sure ...... I never thought he would be a star player......he lost me in about 2010, I think Locky was injured on our run into the finals and for a couple games there we needed our half to stand up. IMO he failed....miserably. He wasn't Bronco material and we as Bronco fans shouldn't have had to put up with the ensuing years of mediocrity wearing the number 7. The history and reverence of that jersey deserves a lot better than Peter Wallace. For Brisbane to win another premiership we needed a lot more out of our halfback than someone who can tackle........ Why you're confused IMO is because everything you said about Norman is subjective. "He [I]seems[/I] to lack the right attitude" ......."He [I]isn't passionate [/I]when he plays" ....."he lacks a spine" .......... and that I think is the difference in our attitudes. I try and take the teenage angst out of it when I'm judging a footballer and focus on their footballing ability and talent, others/you, focus instead on bitchy sneers about the perception of a player's "personality" or somehow imply that you have deep inside knowledge of their character ...... Peter Wallace is a nuffy .......it's there for all to see. Whether Corey Norman is "trying hard enough" or has a shit attitude on the field, I have no idea because I'm not out there.....neither is anyone else on this site. I suspect though if you said to his team mates that he wasn't trying enough, not too many would agree. Peter Wallace and Corey Norman ....have there ever been two more polarising players in the opinions of passionate Brisbane fans? I'm not going to cry about Norman leaving .....I've already said that it's IMO poor form on his behalf that he's decided to jump ship after all the club has done for him but if I'm supposed to cry about Wallace leaving, well it just aint gonna happen. IMO this is one of the better sackings of a player since Ashton Brickhands was told he wasn't wanted anymore...... [/QUOTE]
