The 2013 Willie M Medal: Round 21

 

The Warriors must be super excited about signing Feleti Mateo. He was appalling against the Sharks on Saturday, continuing a horror run of laziness and inactivity that started about the time he signed his new long-term extension. In six of the last seven weeks, he has missed at least three tackles and recorded less than 100 metres. Nearly every match has seen an error or penalty. Mateo can be anything but rarely does anything once he has signed a long-term deal. It is going to be a long few seasons for the Warriors with that big albatross around their neck.
