Oh i forgot our structures are fine silly me.
Sarcasm. Just own it. That's what you do.

Like irony, sarcasm conveys the opposite of what is said. The difference between irony and sarcasm, Merrill Perlman writes in the Columbia Journalism Review, is intent: sarcasm is meant to wound, while irony – generally used in reference to situations rather than people – merely points out an absurdity or contradiction.

In Greek, sarkazein meant "to tear flesh; to wound."

I think he was told he wasn't being renewed, and was offered this chance and took it. If he wasn't good enough for next season why was he good enough this season?? I mean defence coach is a pretty important position is it not???

Must be plenty of good assistant coaches out there ffs. I wonder if Ciraldo is available.

I still can't see how that is kosher ..... I will ask my boss
No need for that. Media organisations love when people share the full text of their articles. They consider it free advertising. People read it and say "Gee this rugby league article was measured and factual. I'm going to become a subscriber."

Interesting stats and analysis on how Parramatta fare during a game depending on the score at the 20 min mark.

It doesn't surprise me as you can generally tell after 5 mins what Parramatta's mindset, mentality and attitude is.
