Quote ="Katy"Out of interest what is everybodies opinion on Jamie Simpson (apart from Charlie, I know you don't rate him from previous performances in Aus!)? Personally I think he has been playing well, haven't seen him do anything outrageous yet nor have I seen him miss a tackle which would have won us a game etc etc however a couple of the blokes who sit round about me spent the entire game slagging him off today - every time he got the ball they gave him a barrage of abuse and were shouting for NB to send him back....have I missed something or do these people not watch the same game I do?
I think its ridiculous, we all support Huddersfield which includes all the players who put on that shirt. Why do some people think its okay to put the lads down when they are out there doing a job? Possibly a little rant but I just don't understand it!!'"
The whole purpose of a forum on Rugby League is to discuss things related to the game. Just because a player plays for a team you support doesn't mean you have to worship the ground he walks on.
That said, thus far I'm not convinced he has been anything other than someone taking up a quota place. But who knows, he might end being the superstar he was supposed to be - Hopefully he will.
