Message: [QUOTE="Morepudding, post: 2941817, member: 8923"] Players make mistakes. TPJ made a huge one with a dumb offload on first tackle in the last 7 minutes losing us the ball. But he was exceptional until that point. Boyd missed 2 fatal tackles on Mitchell (mind you, so have many many other players this year) and it resulted in 2 tries. But Roberts also created 2 tries and put a lot of effort in tonight. Boyd had a one on one tackle with Keary and made less of an impact than my dead grandad would have... He was also way out of position yet again giving the roosters an easy try from a kick, and for the rest of the game he caught the ball and passed it as quick as he could. He just doesn't show any heart and is by far the weakest link in our spine this season (even with the Nikorima / Bird merry-go-round). Additionally, at $750k and being the club captain, even one performance like that is unacceptable. Honestly do you remember ever seeing Lockyer, Hodges, Parker or Thaiday ever show that little heart even once in a game? I don't. Sure they had a bad game here or there, but those players always lead by example and gave it their all. We are 11 rounds in, and each one of those performances have been worse than I have ever seen from any of those previously listed players. It's just not excusable. Say what you will about injury or potential. He could have put his body on the line for that Keary tackle, and he just didn't. He's milking this $750k for all it's worth and its ridiculous. How the media haven't been slaughtering him is just bullshit because sitting in the Members section, where I have sat for the past 15 years, every single person in that area is consistently telling him to **** off. He has no support from the fans, and it appears no support from his players. He needs to man up, and stand down. [/QUOTE]
