I really like reading all your comments fitzy.
But you've lost the plot if you want to compare a kid just starting out his first grade career not on big money (symonds) with someone has been our marquee player for the last 5 years who has all the experience in the world behind him who should be at the peak of his powers (anasta).
I expect a whole lot more from anasta than symonds at this stage of their careers.
a chance.

I just think some are being unfair to him, he played very good at the end of last year. He has played pretty well this season as well.
It is unfair to compare Symonds and Maubs to Anasta. That said, they are all professionals and I think Anasta has been as good if not better than Symonds and Maubs.
I think Maubs has been disappointing this season.
Looking to next year if Anasta stays with us he should be on $200,000 max. I would hate to lose Symonds because Anasta is getting overs.

In the 5 years Anasta has been with us he hasn't played more than 20-30 good games for us. He's not really providing us with bang for our buck. He is supposed to be a top shelf player who provides, leadership, direction and focus. This year he has been a passenger for all but one game.
Other than the finals game against the Tigers last year and a golden point game against the Tigers (2007 I think, where Amos Roberts scored the winning try) how many other times has Braith stood up and taken a game by the scruff of the neck and got us across the line when the game is in the balance. More often than not he tries a miracle play that usually ends in EPIC FAIL!!!
We never should have re-signed him, he is a luxury we cannot afford. If we lose Tom Symonds, Boyd Cordner, Leilua, Linnett, Arona or Tasi because of it then that will be a total in justice. Braith has become our Michael Clarke.......(i.e. over rated, under achieving, golden child)
I'm sure Braith is a really great guy, he certainly seems like it but I personally think he has over stayed his welcome.Last edited by Funky Chicken; 04-13-2011, 12:52 PM.
