Message: [QUOTE="KingWebcke, post: 2524990, member: 8372"] Well I avoid Manly fans like the plague but I have the misfortune of spending much time with Melbourne fans and I can say with absolute certainty that they are not immune from cries for changes, despite their success over the entire season. There were calls for shifting Widdop around to accommodate Finch in the halves and this entire year has seen a veritable shitstorm amongst Storm fans over who should play in the backs along with Chambers. there is non-stop calls for O'Neill in the centres or out (depending on the week) and how Duffie/Fonua/Waqa/ONiell do/don't deserve to be in the NRL. and I'm sure you've heard talk about changes to the Queensland Origin side, despite us having a tremendous record. Winning 7 straight didn't stop fans from calling for changes to the back row before the series or calls to dump Slater in favour of Inglis. And those same calls are going on right now despite the fact that logic would dictate that 'if its not broken, don't fix it'. Winning silences some people but they are no shortage of fans who are constantly white-anting for change or having knee-jerk reactions to any less-than-perfect performance. if you haven't encountered a lot of those fans I think you must be hanging out with a very small and quite unique group of rugby league fans.
