I'd also suggest its erroneous.

Definitely a euphemism

A legal eel dies and goes to Heaven. "There must be some mistake," the legal eel argues. "I'm too young to die. I'm only 55." "Fifty-five?" says Saint Peter. "No, according to our calculations, you're 82." "How'd you get that?" legal eel asks. "We added up your time sheets." says St. Peter.

This is some world class prevaricating from the forum's great contrarian.

Brian Smith lost four grand finals at there different clubs with three different playing groups.

Added to this, the circumstances were entirely different each time:

1) St George in 92 were clear outsiders;
2) St George in 93 were probably mild favourites;
3) Parra in 2001 were overwhelming favourites; and
4) Roosters in 2010 were mild outsiders.

The one common denominator in all these was Brian Smith

Really, this particular factual matrix is probably the one time that we can conclude with certainty that a coach was incapable of coaching a grand final victory.

You can argue the speculative reasons why this is the case, but the inevitable conclusion from the above is that Brian Smith couldn't coach a grand final victory.

Any attempt to argue otherwise is just another episode of "Pou's Counterfactuals"...

The only inevitable conclusion to be drawn is that Brian Smith didn't coach a grand final victory.

Brad Arthur has never made it past week two of the finals, proving that he can't.

Ah Pou Bear, you're incorrigible.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Sorry, it was only true last year. Now it's suddenly untrue. Crazy how more data changes everything.

 

[emjaycee]

Brad Arthur, and every player in our squad except Ryan Matterson and Bailey Simmonson have never won a prelim...

Sorry, that was only true last week. Now it's also suddenly untrue.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Maybe it was never true?

Nrl 360, Hooper you f**ken pelican…..talking about whether eels can win, tries to put shit in BA, saying he needs to get the 17 correct and there is pressure on BA on his selections…..

FFS agree/disagree, the eels are in the GF…with BA decisions and this bench…

Smith also won some preliminary finals (four of them) so his losses in those games don’t prove he couldn’t win them. Likewise his grand final losses don’t prove anything.

Smith put together sides that at the start of the season where not picked to get close to a grand final. Just like our 2001 side.
The fact he lost them meant little. He was a great coach just a poor man manager. Players got sick of him.

Is this a Dad joke?

Yeah definitely time to change what's working. We need our best players to play fewer minutes so we can give some minutes to Cartwright and Nrown ffs. It's only fair.

On NRL Tonight the foxsports lab came up with a stat.

They said that if the Eels win on Sunday, then we will have strung 3 wins in a row for the first time this year.

No team in the history of rugby league since 1908 has won the comp by only winning three in a row.

3rd time we would have won 3 in a roe this year.

Round 3-5
Round 23-25.

But yes your right no team has won the comp when not winning 4 in a row at some point of the season.

Similar to the conceding 50 points in a game you can't win a comp.

I thought we won in rounds 23, 24 & 25.
