Green did not do him any favours I agree but a top player would not allow such an incident so so adversely affect him. I think you need to look at other reasons for his decline in performance. He is mirroring our experience. A period of excellence followed by average performance.

A triple fractor of the cheek bone and only missed two games. Id see he handled that pretty well. He was willing to play good friday also with it.

So you'd rather have a player that's hardly played and won't play again this year over a player that plays week in week out ?

I just don't get that.

I meant that Campese's replacement was performing better that your first choice.

Not done a great deal of help in the league tho as he? You was 2nd bottom for part and struggling to make the top 8.

You are confusing bravery with application. You seemed to be suggesting that his fall off in form was the result of green's foul. Its his form that's being questioned and the reason for it.

We have only won our last four matches of course. Although only three were in the league. I await your comments with bated breath about the quality of the opposition.

I'm implying he's not 100% fit

You said "Up until the Souths game he was very good. His long passes to Percy was worldclass. He also was working well with Vea on those inside balls.
He's been pretty average for past 6 weeks tho and not looked the same since hull KR targeted him."

Where is the implication he's not 100% fit? The injury was to his cheekbone and consequently can only by the broadest stretch of the imagination be thought to have affected his fitness.

I'd find the link to my prediction that Campese would be forever on the treatment table when the trailer park crowd from KR invaded here after their home victory - but they're too insignificant to bother investing time and energy.

We lost vea the week before the Souths game and percy shortly after. He's also been playing with different halves each week and a cheek bone break hasn't helped.

If you won't me to put it simply for you. First half the season he was very very good and kept us ticking over and was putting in top class passes brining our centres into the game which we hadn't seen in long time and was linking up great with Vea.

We've had lots of injuries and not had settled team and he's been injured plus he's not in the best of form, so Id say he's been average for past 6 weeks.

I look at it this way. We won our first 6/7 games and travis played a massive part in that. If you take those performances away and the fact we had no hslves at the time then I don't think we'd be sitting 2nd in the league at the moment.

So insignificant that you bother investing time and energy posting. Cannot you see the irony of your post?
