I expressed a view point earlier and SBD 82 jumped on it and justified his position on the basis of someone having inside info and how dare I question it.
This is a gross misrepresentation of what happened.

I'm not your enemy OT. Try not to be a merkin.

Amongst all of that waffle this is the key issue.

It's not worth as much as you believe it to be. And you've based your entire post on that flawed premise.
Mary honestly believes Aitken is doing nothing wrong and has been has consistently performed over the past few season. Why does Mary believe this? Because Aitken is following Mary's instructions to the letter. The problem is that the plan is flawed and rather than be used so often, should only be used occasionally. So how can Mary sack Aitken when Aitken is just doing as he is told.

Did you mean to quote me @possm?

We were discussing host.

In case you didn't know "IMO" is the norm in this place as is the case with your posts above.

Ha. You're like a dog with a bone OT. But you're an old dog that's not quite as sharp as you once were.

Go back and read samy's post. He wasn't wrong.

Mate OT
Just like a lot of people when there wrong there right and when there right there right.
That way you can never be wrong.
Host didn't go because he was getting treatment down at wollongong.
They passed him fit on the morning he played ISP.
But people can twist it anyway they want.

OK, maybe a bit harsh.

Let me ask some questions then to make sure I understand where you are coming from - because for the life of me I can't see why you would question samy's information and why you would need to hold the coach accountable.

Firstly, samy said Host was injured and that the medical staff thought he could get better treatment if he remained in Sydney. So what was wrong about what Samy said? That all still sounds feasible. Being in the Gong, getting better treatment could have allowed him to be ready in time for the game on Sunday.

Secondly, what words has Mary said that make this hard to believe? I haven't seen or heard anything specifically mentioned about Host at all? I could only find a team list for the ISP team written up on the day of the match so I can't find any evidence that there were plans for him to play in the team all along.

Am happy to have another look at this if you can tell me why you think this way.

OK OT. I'm going to spell this out for you very simply.

This:
I expressed a view point earlier and SBD 82 jumped on it and justified his position on the basis of someone having inside info and how dare I question it.
Is a gross exaggeration of this:
If you're still second guessing samy you haven't been paying attention.

I'd be more inclined to trust him than a press release from the club.

In case you didn't know "IMO" is the norm in this place as is the case with your posts above.
I fully understand that. But some posters in here overvalue their own opinion, and underestimate others.

In your case, it is sometimes like dealing with the proverbial chess playing pigeon.

My great fear, is that when you crap on people like Samy, he will stop providing his insights, which I find extremely valuable, and all I will be left with on these forums is a chessboard covered in birdshit.

Thanks Samy. Keep up the good work. As always, appreciate your info.

There was no issue between Samy and myself and I hold no grievance with his post as it was well intentioned.
However I do rightly hold grievance when you tell me not to second guess somebody who might no something and further more if I did I second guess him "I wasn't paying attention"
Well guess what, maybe you paid attention to a well intentioned but unfortunately incorrect post and just maybe, I might know a little more than you think.
By the why D4 if you care to play "wood pusher".

I hold not grievance with you or your post, I just am amazed that he didn't go to Mudgee yet still played ISP.
IMO the "injury" must have been very insignificant, otherwise he would never have been passed fit so why couldn't that be done in Mudgee?
My hope is simply that he is not already out of the running and I say that because Mc Fookknuckle has plenty of form in that regard and he is the master of creating a false impression while he stabs players.

I didn't suggest there was. this is between you and me.

Fmd you're a sensitive one. I did not tell you what to do. Second guess all you want. I'm not foolish enough to think that my opinion will move such an arrogant old man.

I didn't. Your lack of comprehension skills must really get in the way of life.
and just maybe, I might know a little more than you think.
You don't. You're just another bloke who thinks age alone imparts wisdom.
By the why D4 if you care to play "wood pusher".
You want to try that again in English?

Your naivety becomes you and when you get older and wiser you will finally see things for what they are.
You are the one that is incorrect and want to believe what is smoke and mirrors.
Host was never declared injured or unfit but he was talked about as 1 of 3 people in the running for the 1st grade back row position.
Even if Host had a minor injury but had of gone to Mudgee he could have been declared fit there and played or are you telling me the reggies support staff are better at preparing players than our high performance staff?
IMO he was always going to be declared fit and was destined to be in reggies because Mc Fookknuckle has a different agenda to what he states to be the case.
That was again made obvious by the fact Kerr got not 1 minute of game time despite his good cameo against Hull yet plodder Latimore god yet another attempt to show why he will be picked come Rd 1.
By the way if Host does get selected in 1st grade it will not be because he was always going to be it is simply because Leilua who was given every opportunity failed to grasp it because he was never good enough to be a starting player anyway despite Mc Fookknuckles repeated attempts to get him there.
I still suspect Sims will start (big mistake) Luc bench, Latimore bench and Host reggies but maybe sheer wait of evidence might somehow change Mc Fookknuckle's mind.
Blah blah blah can you please summarise what you have written can’t be stuffed reading a novel TBH

Thx Samy .. how did he go in the reggie trial?

He played well.
But they were scrappy but still had a win.
Rufus unless I'm reading the whole second row situation incorrectly.
I would say that host is a starter in the top 17.
But we will all now soon.
He pulled up ok.
Training tomorrow day off wednesday.
See what happens.
