The only selection I could think of that was worse was Henry retaining Bani for round 2 last year and leaving Fai Fai Loa out of the team.
I don't consider Vautvei's personality or sens of humour to be an argument for his ability as a player. The fact that you do speaks volumes.
They were arguments against your hatred for him rather than his ability tbh. He's a great attacking weapon and it more than makes up for his high error rate. That's all that needs to be said really. Any NRL coach would put him in their starting lineup automatically.
Yeah but any good NRL coach wouldn't name him as their captain. Gotta say I love seeing the Warriors raped.
Irrelevant. I could make arguments against your love for him. I beg to differ. Same with Ashley Graham. Proves nothing.
I don't think you can blame the captain for this loss and I don't think it was such a bad call to m ake him captain. He is hugely respected by his teammates, especially the young blokes and has a certain mana about him. He kinda got the position by default anyway and it was always a one-off/short term appointment. Johnson or Taylor are longer term options by too soon for them. What does the captain do anyway apart from decide which way to run at the toss?
I don't love him. I think he's a great player who gets a lot of unfair abuse from idiots like you who actually hate him for some reason. I'm well aware how often he coughs the ball up but he's a beast with the ball in hand. I can understand Warriors supporters hating on him like a few do. But it's only a few and then there are the racists who simply hate him because they see him as a "big thick coconut" etc. That's ugly. I also don't know how you can hate a bloke so much who doesn't even play for your team or country. It's probably a bit like the hatred for Richard Hadlee by Aussies. He was just too good, so they hated him and chanted "Hadlee's a wanker" etc. Poor Manu suffers from Paddles Syndrome
lol, yeah, I hate him because he's too good. You are deadset retarded. He doesn't get 1/10th of the criticism he deserves.
Believe me, people don't hate him because he's too good, it's because he is shit and is possibly the most overrated player of all time (and a big thick coconut). Let's name Moi Moi on the wing and get the same results, running over cunts and dropping balls. Except after ten years in the backs Moi Moi might actually improve.
