Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3172888, member: 1847"] Except for Haas, equally if not more heavily marked and who is always on fire, give or take a few defensive lapses. And he loves his club. As for Fifita, given he doesn't love his club, and while not denying him the right to get the best deal, I prefer to invest my emotional energy into supporting those players who play for their club first rather than cash. In any case, I don't think Fifita has deliberately clocked off. I just think his heart isn't in it anymore. Because of that, I agree with [USER=9518]@Jedhead[/USER]. I would also prefer to see Riki, whose heart is in it, given more opportunities, even at Fifita's expense. On this point, Peter FitzSimmons recently wrote in the SMH about Titans Jamal Fogarty, who plays for peanuts out of love for his club and the game: "Blokes like that, who set the tone for the other players, are worth 10 times the million-dollar lads who are after the pay cheque alone."

It's playing out of passion for your club that counts most. [/QUOTE]
