They cant be compared.

I don't drink enough beer to know. Just had a lot of craft beers that where horrible. VB seems fine to me

Had a kiwi fruit sour the other day when it was a bit nippy. Didn’t go down too bad actually

I would rather have Baby John Burgess shit in my mouth than drink VB.

If you put VB in another bottle and labelled it craft most hipsters would suck it down and rave with there f**kwit friends about their great boutique beer they have tried. It's sickening.
I understand some people likenurself would be a far better judge that a dumb merkin like me. But your general person would be clueless.

Yeah. Lots wouldn't tell the difference.

But, it depends on the style I guess. VB, New, XXXX etc are all pale lagers. Literally hundreds of craft beer styles. Many that taste, smell and look very different to a pale lager.

I enjoy a Stone and Wood. I used to drink silver bullets. Don't mind a Newtowner.
I am a small drinker. 4 beers and I'm f**ked. Mik dead set can smash a carton. And then knock down a few Jacks.

I don't know if you support Pou's argument that adding an attack coach is to help the defence.

That’s not my argument, merkin. Adding a coach is going to help our team on both sides of the ball. The fact he is taking over the attack is likely why he agreed to come. Whether the attack improves next year is beside the point, because so many other things will change. One thing that will change because of Barrett taking over the attack is that existing coaching resources can be redirected from attack to improving our defence. I’d bet very surprised if our attack improved but our defence got worse, for example. But it’s possible (likely, imo) that if we do improve, our defence will improve more than our attack simply because it is coming from a lower base. Likewise, if we get worse overall (more likely due to players leaving than because Barrett ran our attack), I expect our attack to drop more than our defence for the same reason (reversion to mean).

And if we don’t become a top four attacking side I expect every scapegoating idiot in this place to blame Barrett, and the club for hiring him, and Arthur for whatever made up reason. Maybe he is undermining Barrett because he feels threatened or whatever tabloid melodramatic bullshit they need to tell themselves?

I think we need to land on a derogatory name for him early. I'm going with Trent Rabbit.

But that is part of your argument. We're adding an attack coach to help overall which will help the defence because other staff can then be reassigned. And I disagree. I think they're adding an attack coach because the attack is not as good as it should be. And they'll possibly add a defence coach for the same reason.

Hmm. Id say BA needs to show he is not happy with how things are so is taking charge and making adjustments. Either to protect himself and save his job which is fine id do the same or cause he genuinely thinks Barrett will help as they are put of ideas and that's more likely scenario which is smart to keep trying to evolve.

I think it's probably not really BA's decision and he's been given a fair hint that things need to improve and changes made. So Barrett is probably his choice but he was pressured into making a choice.

I reckon you are spot on. I hope so anyway.

Rereading hindy's post I really didn't add anything
