Jordan Abdul is a very special player he seems to have time on his hands with ball in hand it's something players don't usually have & at his age, if he's nurtured correctly he will be as good as Jason smith. Great win tonight with a small subs bench, well done FC.

Kelly was Rovers top tackler I think. As well as being instrumentaal in their kicking game (we couldn't catch any of his kicks, and our Super 8 opponents will note this) and their best passing plays.
We bombed a few chances but had a couple of borderline decisions go our way.
Lineham was excellent and it is criminal we've allowed another great player to leave to a top rival.
kelly is a great player but he was their top tackler because we ran at him all night and he was pretty ineffectual with ball in hand. Other than the forward pass to puletua he offered nothing in attack IMO other than running around a bit in midfield. Sneyd far and away the best half back on the field

Fair enough. That's your opinion and I respect that.

I'm not going to respond to everyone individually but my point about Lineham is that we've had several good players over the past few years. The ones that have left have always been dismissed as "wanting away", "a bad apple" or some other derogatory term that implies that the problem lied with them.
Why do we never question why they want to leave? If the club had managed the players better over the past 10 years we'd have had considerably more success than we've had. Note I'm not singling out any particular coach or management regime here, it's been going on for years.

It's just sport players move on. It's frustrating as a fan but we have to get on with it. You don't worry about what you haven't got you work with what you have. Money new coaching set up different culture possible silverware are a few reasons players come & go.
