I completely agree with pretty much all of that. I hold no ill feeling towards him and appreciate what he has done in the past. He will get nothing but good wishes from me when he leaves.



However just because someone has been a good servant to the club, does not mean people have to praise him when he has a bad game. The criticism of his performances this year is justified, as he has been in awful form. It's probably the worst I've ever seen him in a Bulls shirt.



I agree with the sentiments of the post I have quoted above. That doesn't take away though that saying he had a good game judging by the fact he kicked 8 goals is crazy talk.

Just watching highlights of yesterdays game, and Deacon constructed a move threatening the line, then a perfect pass to set up the first try. After 5 minutes though, he became useless.

Stick a fork in him and feed him to Stanley Gene, hes done

I don't subscribe to this "his goal kicking was good but he did nothing else to warrant his inclusion" view. The fact is that Deacon was the difference yesterday because of his goal kicking. It would have been handy if he had been more creative in the middle and kicking on the last but he was integral to us winning the game which is all important.



If it were the grand final and we beat 18 vs 16 because we kicked three from three conversions and they kicked 2 would it really matter how he played during the rest of the game?

Its not though is it?

AT LAST a person who knows about talent & skills in Rugby League - I have occasionally mentioned how good Deacon is to the Bulls side & some (idiots) argue with me





Do not hold your breath for any apology matey - us experienced RL people know our stuff

You've been quiet lately

How typical - Radio

You need to get a life matey before its too late - those who attend games should comment, but others should shut up

Don't take it to heart hari. Tigertot is no authority on radio, he's a fan of the hairy cornflake FFS!

Sadly that hasn't continued.
