VOTE HERBIE FARNWORTH: BHQ Player of Round 3

[TimWhatley]

Or even more so, Luai. He is what Milf can only dream of being.

I get the feeling that Luai would be a liability if he wasn't next to Cleary and behind the best pack in the game.

The sooner we get rid of Milford, the sooner this team can begin to breathe. Look at how useless he is at backing up Herbie. Jogging along like the passenger he is.

If you want a jolting reminder at how inept our halves are, watch Nathan Cleary in last night's Penrith vs Manly match. That's what this team is sorely missing.

Milford is being tackled and he gets the offload away that instigates the play in the first place. He's on the turf and has to get up to chase the play, which is already well past him. I think some people are being overly harsh on this occasion.

Nah McHunt is right. Blind Freddy can see the break being made while Milf just jogs along. He eventually puts the foot down but too late to be useful.

In that breath, kikau after 79mins and in last play of the game playing melb, he gets knocked over by a decoy and goes down on the left side of the field.

No penalty is given (correct call) and the ball is spread to the otherside of the field. Kikau gets up, chases across to the otherside of the field and makes a try saver against olam. Kikau had an excuse too but didnt use it.

Our support play as a team is terrible but when you are earning a mil a year, giving up on a play is not good enough.

You are absolutely correct about the whole team's support play. There should have been running support for Herbie as soon as he got the ball. If it were the Panthers, half the side would have been in support. Singling Milford out here is really a bit rich.

Cody Walker is there every time there's a break. Milford is just a lazy ****. The sooner he ***** off the better. Imagine getting 20k a week and being lazy.

Funniest thing about that is he was very obviously trying to milk a penalty. If he had gotten up even a quarter of a second later he would not have prevented the try. It really was split second stuff.

Yeah he definitely could have shown more urgency here. Hurts to watch.

Compared to the top sides our support play / players pushing up around the ball is absolutely terrible. Whether it's a confidence thing or attitude idk but if we're going to compete we need more players pushing up in support. Too many times it's one out stuff. Banging our heads against a brick wall over and over.
