I’m sure they are subject to valid criticism,
Of course...
but it isn’t from fans
Oh 😭. But why can't an observer provider a valid criticism from their point of view or perspective, exactly?

Why do you seek to whitewash any criticism of POs by using the tired and flawed "the people in the job must know more" or "the people in the job don't make mistakes" attempted rebuttal.

Why do you seek to always promote that those currently in positions should be unquestioned or to always support the status quo?

I don't really care for your answers to the above... these are more rhetorical thinking points, whenever you're next on "the couch" and reflecting upon your patterns of behaviour on here.

Everyone makes mistakes. Not everyone is qualified to point them out. Stay in your lane, which is watching footy. We can see when players miss tackles or drop the ball or get suspended for being f**kwits. That's where our criticism should end because we can see those mistakes. Criticising player options is lazy and ignorant because we are only seeing one part of the transaction. We aren't seeing the rest of it (i.e. the monetary component) so we don't have enough information to judge the decision.

There's a few club options in the NRL, including Sivo's. Does that mean the club bent the player's manager over or some equally puerile metaphor?

Bullshit

Why? And who are you to say to others when and what they should be critical of?

Again, what makes your opinion (defend everything!) more valid than anyone else's (questioning things) on this topic? Nothing...

Ridiculous attempt at false equivalence, for no purpose. Classic #poulogic

Sam Moa is the defence coach the Catalan Dragons defence in seasons 22 & 23 (assume he was there both seasons)

Was 19 and 15 ppg

When Jason Ryles and Sam Moa are coaching the defense, it brings a whole new meaning to chase the collision.

A better question is why YOU think my opinion is more valid than anyone else’s. Why are you so offended by my opinion that you need to chase me around the forum ‘debunking’ every post like some left wing fact checker? Everyone has opinions on here but you see mine as a call to action. It’s obvious to everyone.

I would’ve thought the better question was why Bart considers “not everyone being qualified to point out mistakes” as bullshit? Although perhaps the answer is him just being reductive. Or maybe I’m being reductive.

To be honest, I haven't noticed The Phantom Menance paying any extra attention to Pou than he does anyone else.

But then again I am blind in both eyes and my screen is constantly covered by On This Day crap.

It’s bullshit because I said it, obviously.
