    Wollongong for the latter. Another of my friends had to rename her dog from 'George' to 'Chad' when she moved there.

    There was a girl in my high school who was adamant that there was such a thing as a 'Painters and Doctors Union'.

    I often wondered what you'd post about after BA left the club. I needn't have worried.

    Sure. Thanks mate. I thought it would be close, but I think the day after we made the bet, Gutho got ruled out for several weeks. That was curtains with Moses out and not much depth left in the backs.

    ;) hard to forget in a season such as this.

    Squared.

    IF nothing else, we might see a debut by Dick Penisini. Would make it all worthwhile.

    What was the middle bit?

    That's not the point I was making. I was responding to an assertion that our defense had been horrid for most of BA's tenure. I was just presenting evidence that while it was far from competition leading, it was 'average' on average. Not horrid, in the main (thoug a couple of years were pretty...

    I think they just like laying the boot into today's clusterf**k. Fair enough. That and the fact that we have the stupidest fans on the planet (with the possible exception of those in Philadelphia), and they know that and that it attracts attention.

    So what exactly do you mean by 'a fraud'?
  12. Barry O'Speedwagon

    Rumours and Stuff

    Mate, I think you are being quite over the top about the bloke. I understand the frustration. The guy is not a fraud.

    I suspect it's that they manage them from a portfolio perspective a lot more cleverly than we have (i.e. consider how many options are exercisable in each year, how many contracts end in each year, understand their future exposures). The guys who ran the club straight after the salary cap...

    Yeh, but that's strongly correlated with just being 'the best team'. My point was that we haven't been horrid in defense for most of BA's tenure. Not that our defense was competition winning.

    Just to introduce a few hard facts to the debate, these are our defensive rankings (out of 16 teams) since BA's first full season in charge: 13th, 12th, 2nd, 7th, 13th, 7th, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 11th. Not world beating, but not exactly 'horrid for most of it'. Just bone average across the...

    Or just add a couple of letters to 'it'

    I believe that Bruce Lehrmann has thrown his hat in the ring. Or something similar.

    Well we sort of used to try that. Then they banned the flying wedge.

    What about having Brown and Gutho as a hooker rotation?
