Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2477262, member: 1899"] Agree with BroncosMan on Ashton Sims. A lot of people blame him for the 08 game but always let the likes of Clinton, Moon & even Lockyer off the hook. I reckon he was a good prospect for us and he demonstrated why in 09 when he just pulverised teams heading into the finals. I actually thought while everybody was beating themselves silly over Taylor, that Sims was making just a big an impact if not more. I don't think we ever got the best out of him either, he showed the capacity to ball-play (Round 3 09 and during the early stages of 08). Had a penchant of giving away a penalty, but I always thought he was valuable and looking back think it's a mistake Henjak preferred Dodds over him when we desperately needed some muscle up-front. Karmichael Hunt - On the surface, he really didn't seem like much but boy could he lift during the big games. Very reliable at the back, made huge metres and knew how to put on a try. Lot of people aren't a fan of his ego and self-centred nature which is fair enough but the fact he could back it up won me over. Nick Kenny - Seemed like everyone and their mothers hated Nick during his last year with the club. I always thought he played well above himself, particularly around 08-09 and considering the coin he was on, emerged as a very handy depth player. Put it this way, he was on half the money of Clinton yet was matching him, if not topping him for the most part. [/QUOTE]
