That was in response to a merkin who said I've never been right about anything. I will continue to match hyperbole with hyperbole. And you can continue looking like a dope quoting shit out of context.

It's like the people who thought I was serious about coaches needing a big face. Or that I work in a f**king laundromat. Don't try and catch me with zingers you f**king idiots. I'm the one taking the piss around here.
Your face is going to be red when you realise the Happy MEels contain cheeseburgers rather than zingers.

I'll just leave this here...

Does anyone know how many players have come through the system under Arthur in the 17 that faced Penrith. 6 years of failure

Yeah nah.

Simply stating “the better question is when have I ever been wrong” is clearly said in jest.

Following that up with a specific example of the only time you believe you have been wrong, and then defending that position multiple times when posters called him out on it (see below) suggests that at least to some degree, he believes this to be true in his own head.

This is the first time he has relaxed his position (probably due to the overwhelming evidence to the contrary)

Whether someone (Anderson, Kearney, Hasler) will ever coach again is also a guessing game. Interestingly, from the same 'never wrong' post in question (July 2018) I said this:
Except Moses hasn't been handed the keys. Norman is our primary playmaker this year and the proof is our position on the ladder. He needs to go.
Not a prediction (i.e. not a guessing game) but is it coincidence that since punting Norman and 'handing Moses the keys' we are near the mid-point of the season, in the top eight, and Moses is fourth in the NRL for try assists and fifth for LBAs? I'd say only partly.

But keep bookmarking my predictions in the hope that one will turn out wrong. Quite clearly guessing games really show our knowledge of a subject.

I also said Papalii will never again play second roe for Queensland. Could that prediction turn out wrong? Of course it could. But even if it does it doesn't change the logic underpinning the prediction - that he is a defensive liability on the edges. Obviously never is a big word, but this is a rugby league forum, and it's easier to talk in absolutes when most merkins don't understand probability.

...and you’re still defending your original comment, which again suggests you believe there’s an element of truth to your ‘never wrong’ post.

There’s no question you’re right plenty of times and have a good understanding of rugby league, but certainly less than you think.

How tightly is Gary gripping Pou’s balls FFS??
It's no different to the way you guys blow each other when trying to make whatever shit point it is that you are making.

I noticed @Avenger quietened down when I responded seriously last night. He realised he was out of his depth and potentially jeopardising his free golf lesson.

Yeah yeah we know you crushed him like a PISSANT!!

The only thing you crushed was Pou’s chances of having more kids.

But I'm not defending my original comment. It was said in response to an equally absurd statement that I'm never right. Of course my predictions can be wrong - you even quoted where I've pointed them out. Further, I've recently admitted some others that you missed, like Kearney never coaching again. Wrong wrong wrong. But the point of the prediction was that Kearney's reputation was f**ked after he left Parra. Saying he'll never coach again is like saying I'd be surprised if he ever coaches again. And I was. It's no big deal.

If this cranky bald merkin can’t get the 17 hopeless merkins he calls players to beat the Souths reserve grade side this Friday he should hand his contract extension back in and resign on the spot.

IFR33K: Yeah. What a f**ken! I love you Avy.

IFR33K: I love you Hiney. F**ken.

Gary: Actually is it really a case of f**ken?

Avenger: Why don’t you root Pou you f**ken?

IFR33K: Yeah Avy why don’t you root me…I mean, f**k off Gary you f**ken.

Hiney: F**ken huggers.

Avenger: Yeah huggers!

IFR33K: Huggers lol. I love you Avy.
