Happens with almost all ex NRL forwards. If We signed the NSW front row and had the maroons front row on the bench we would still find something to whinge about. Aussie forwards are not superhuman. We think so because they have dominated in test matches for the last 40 years. We can match their forwards. Look at Morley, Burgess. Bros, cooper, etc etc.
The tip is to not get sucked into the hype to flog season tickets.
I have had premier sports for the last 3 seasons and there is not one forward that I could say are streets ahead of what we have over here.
Now half backs, wingers, centres and full backs are light years ahead.
Sims is doing nothing more or nothing less than I expected.
He is fine. But having said all that I didn't think that Tietzel was that bad.
