  • Collins 1 Good Year - Now retired

    We put up with all his dropped balls in the first few years. I never thought he would come good, but he did.
    In 2023 he won the Jack Gibson Medal and was Superman for a year. He ran straight and hard and was everywhere in defence.
    He isn't Superman anymore, not even close to it. Is it Kryptonite? He is painful to watch at the moment.

    I think he's pretty inconsistent, he isn't incapable of having a good game but he rarely strings it together week to week, Leniu has that same inconsistency in him as well, our only consistently good prop is Whyte but what do we do? Hopefully the Va'a brothers become great consistent first graders.

      He used to bend the line. Now he gets hammered and often gets driven backwards.

        Def not the Collins of 24.

        I'd have had Losalu there not EButcher.

        In the end you can't make those errors and piss poor completions that drain the petrol because of the added defense.

        We're killing ourselves in these games. It's not about ability it's about doing the basics.

          Something is not right about Collins at all.

            What do we do?
            Sell them off like we did all the others who were judged not
            to be good enough?
            Sitili, May, Young, ...etc.

            The Raiders were too big. too strong, too fast, too skilful.
            We were not, so we lost.
            We were hapless.
            It's a big mess.
            Why was the team that beat the Sharks not playing the Raiders?

            What does Spencer actually do in games?

              Leniu is good for 6 hit ups and 52 metres. And if we're lucky he's on report.

              I'd be cutting him loose at the end of the year too.

                Leniu is becoming a bit of a show pony with his carry on in front of the cameras and tough boy attitude,but all we need from him his to run hard and tackle hard..

                Surely not too difficult to do considering his pay packet.

                  Definitely doesnt have the numbers for a player supposedly on circa $850k. Another $150k and you get Haas.

                    Yep.

                    Players such as Foketi, Va'a and the concretor offer more at a fraction of the price. We also have the Seve brothers in the coming year or two.

                      I'd be having a word to his management and let him go early. He's not worth the price tag.

                      Losalu and the Va'a brothers could do a better job with Whyte than what Collins is offering up. It's like we've got Dylan Napa 2.0 on our hands at the moment.

                        Collins moves like my father-in-law who's 80.

                        Players that need to go and those that need to get up to speed quickly

                        Deadwood that needs to go.

                        Collins
                        E Butcher
                        Sandon Smith

                        Need to get up to speed

                        Marky Mark. He needs to sort out his bomb defusal asap! Pointless being the best athlete on the park if you can't catch the ball. I'm not sure why he chooses to jump for the ball when there's no one around him. FFS

                          Leniu is a hall of fame cap thief who regularly only gives us the output of a young bench forward but he's somehow an origin representative on over $800k a year, he is in the Braith Anasta category of useless.

                            Afraid to say JWH he ain’t. Does anyone else think we would have won against the Raiders with our pack from last week?

                              Yep deadwood now
                              slow and a liability in defence
                              no footwork or speed in contact
                              in the 6 again game Collins is gone
                              with injuries lost confidence running into contact as well

                              wouldn’t be surprised to see him tapped on the shoulder soon
                              for $700k we have other younger players coming up who may be better equiped to the nrl today

                              or get haas

                              Vaa x 2, Seve x 2, plus the 4 under 19s poly boys
