| Is it just me or do any other fans think it is time for Lockers to bow out?, his appearances have been getting less and less every season due to his body getting frail, his performances have also been below par, we can not afford to keep carrying him because of sentiment, look what happened with Scully at Saints, what a joke that turned out to be, come on Sean do the club and fans a favour and call it a day, like your Brother in Law did, it's a good move for everyone, we cut your wage bill, you take up the assistant coach job and get no more injuries, John Bateman takes over your position freeing up a place in the pack and we either promote from within or sign a top NRL player.

So you would be happy to see him get injured after 2 games next season, be out for 3 months in which time we learn how to play without him, only for him to come back into the side and disrupt things to the point we start losing games then after a 4 or 5 game losing streak he gets injured again and we go through the same process having already been dumped out of the Challenge Cup, no ta, not for me, have the decency to call it a day when your body is telling you to.

| If he does get injured and has to spend an extended time on the sidelines, then he might decide enough is enough. But I'd rather have half a SOL directing traffic than two Matty Smiths. There's no reason to suppose he's suddenly made of balsa-wood or he'll fold up after 20 minutes on the park.
He's got a lot of stick in the past (especially in the early days, when he was anonymous a lot of the time), but I don't think there are too many more committed squad members in the pack now or in recent years.

He's done 21, 23 and 19 games in the last three seasons. Many of the games he missed were when we rested him against lower opposition. His contribution isn't as great as it was five years ago but I'd still rate it well above that of his backrow partner Joel Tomkins. I'm guessing the plan is for this year to be his last anyway with Bateman taking over at loose.

It's no coincidence IMO that our 4 props started to look the part towards the latter end of the season when Sean was putting in the full 80, or damn near it. He is crucial to us for the next 2 seasons.

There are actually plenty of others, they just won't type it on here in fear of getting chastised by various certain posters and members of the big clique

This is an open forum, not some closed religious sect that stones people to death for not believing in the same book of nonsense they do.
Bring it on. If people want to sack SOL then they're entitled to their opinion and have a perfect right to say so. But if they want to skulk around as nothing more than 5th columnists they'll get short shrift from me a least.

No I wouldn't be happy.
Getting injured is part of RL. What makes you think that John Bateman won't get injured after two games and be out for the rest of the season?
You'd look pretty stupid if you'd made Lockers retire then Bateman gets injured wouldn't you?
I would have thought that if the GF taught us anything it's that older players, though past their best, can still win things.

| It's definitely the OP.
There are so many "cliques" on here I've lost count who is in which one. Although they only seem to get mentioned when someone doesn't like their opinion being challenged.

Strange as it may seem the props also started to put a shift in when Sarginson was injured, they suddenly realised that they didn't have a back taking the ball up at least once in each set when they were on there own Twenty.

The Cliques are there and they have been there since the first time i joined 10 years ago, it's not just me, others know it as well, some have been banned for questioning them on here, others simply don't post any more because of it, only members of a clique claim that said clique does not exist

You are familiar with the concept of reductio ad absurdum then?
I don't think anyone has said there are no cliques - just a posh word for a group of people with a similar outlook afterall. Just that any barmpot conspiracy theory that the mods in here are looking out to shut down debate is crackers.

Lets get this straight once and for all - NOBODY has EVER been banned for questioning any mythical "clique" or "cliques". The usual rubbish spouted by people previous banned for breaking the AUP (which is the only way peolpe can be banned).
April 2015 wasn't 10 years ago - maybe you're in the "previously banned but using a different username clique"? Anyway back on topic and I must go as I've got some baked beans on the hob that need stirring.
