Sick of the word 'potential'!

The most overused word when it comes to describing our team over the years.Bevan French has potential. Mitch and Norman have potential. Gutho has potential. BA has potential etc.'Potential' is a word you use when a young talent is starting out, not to describe a fully seasoned and experienced NRL first grader. If we are still waiting for them to reach their 'potential' then our coach/team are showing that the only potential they have reached is in dumbness.
