2018 R22 Fri - Warriors 20-4 Knights @ Mt Smart

[SBD82]

You've created a false equivalency, that coverage of one player impacts on the other. Your dislike of a player clouds your judgement

It's not a false equivalency to say that there is a finite amount of media time/coverage, and that using an inordinate amount on one player will negatively impact on the coverage of others.

There is mere weeks left of Slater's career and your still upset that he is getting any type of press.

You're making another straw man.

I'm sure RTS, whose Warriors career to date been patchy at best, will get plenty of Australian press in the next decade.

I'm not going to hold my breath.

You've only got to wait 6 weeks or so and your not going to have to worry about Slater taking "press" away from your beloved.

 

[Meth]

I wouldn't say RTS's career at the warriors has been patchy, as much as injury-hampered.

In 2018, he's the best fullback going around IMO

But Slater is the best of the modern era

Yeah. Ok. Good chat.

 

[Canard]

Yeah. Ok. Good chat.

Claims the moral high ground, after saying the media shouldn't be 'wanking' over a player he doesn't like.

No. Just tired of being misrepresented.

It feels like you want to have an argument, so you've just created one for yourself and gone with it. I'm not really necessary in this scenario.

You can't make such a bold statement and expect to go unchallenged.

I'm not arguing with any of that per se, although I'd reckon quite a few Roosters fans would.

Which statement was bold?

That the media faps over slater?

Or that they have largely ignored RTS this year?

Your real whinge is that the Australian media hasn't given RTS his due in 2018

Everything else was petty bullshit.

Call it a whinge if you like, but surely you'd see that there's some element of truth in it.

Pointing only to the example of slater was possibly lazy, but what would you have me do, list every story that the NRL media over reports? I'd have to write a novel.

Because they're salty that they lost RTS?

Or because they rate Tedesco?

The latter is a fair argument, for sure.

 

[Meth]

As for RTS not getting his due from the Australian media, or whoever, I doubt he cares, and we (Warriors fans) don't really either.

 

[footy75]

Warriors should be there now... good on them.

Only the Warriors could f**k it up from here.

The level of salt from some chooks fans over RTS is pathetically hilarious. They got a good replacement for him, let it go ffs. Teams who don’t have uncle Nick’s endless supply of cap-exempt bags of cash don’t get so lucky.

Good on the Warriors for showing Checcin some respect.
