I'm not the one that lacked civility to begin with, I'm not gonna be a suck up like some other people and just open up the OP's asshole and rim them to get into the clique.

I am not and will never be a sycophantic parasite and will call people out when they are merkins.

whatever helps you sleep at night

hypocritical much ?

METSM was for everyone else, not for me. I, unlike many other whinging supporters on this forum who have given up on us this year, am traveling back to Sydney after being there earlier this weekend for a concert to support our team tonight.

The good thing about the other site is they are still optimistic about us making the eight. They are good fans.

At least I can sleep at night, unlike Suity.

So you get up and change the sheets?

And that's the problem with the other site. They're delusional. It's virtually impossible for us to make the 8. I've only visited it 2 or 3 times but it seems most people on there are delusional and also gullible to everything they read.

This is where you're just plain wrong.

There is no 'consensus opinion' in this place. This is the kind of victimhood bullshit people throw out when they're called on their negativity.

I think if you sit back and try to be objective you'll see that every opinion is unpopular with one group or another around here. I don't know how you can say one opinion is unpopular and another one is popular. An example is Sefton Boy - all he does is rag on Luke Burt, which is why he cops so much grief. It's like he doesn't have anything else to say.

For the record I mostly agree with him on Burt but I try not to be an anti-Burt one trick pony so I'm not vilified for my (mostly) negative view of Luke Burt.

It's not the opinion that gets people dogpiled; it's the constant and negative way they're put across.

I couldn't care less about the grief I cop. However, the reason i go on about Burt because I think it's a great injustice that this guy is still playing NRL when we have let go of younger players. Maybe we could of kept big Tony Williams for example if they offloaded Burt earlier.

I just find it very frustrating.

The Parramatta club is seriously got to re-think how it does things with recruitment & retention because 25 years without a premiership with one of the best junior leagues in unacceptable.

We are in serious danger of getting the wooden spoon & all the OLD dead wood should be moved on. The only that should be staying is the heart of the side - Hindmarsh.

You missed his point. And that point was every single post you contribute to this forum is bagging out Luke Burt. If you commented on other matters regarding the Parramatta club and about games etc.. then maybe you wouldn't be known as just that 'Luke Burt hater'. You must have other opinions on other players and issues regarding the club surely?

I don't hate anybody even Luke Burt. Great guy I here & has given great service to Parra however.........

I have many opinions on Parramatta but his exclusion is the top of my list. Really haven't got time for other topics.

This would have to be up there as one of the oddest things that has been said on the internet. How could anybody be so obsessed with sacking Luke Burt?

At any rate, I agree with the threadstarter. The simplest solution would just be to exclude the serial offenders. There is no excuse for abuse.

the eels, from the leadership to the fans, have lacked discipline ever since john morris left the club. look around. no one is putting his hand up, holding himself accountable, dropping to the dirt and busting out 50 perfect form push-ups because they know that close enough isn't good enough. and it's not. this is where we've gone wrong. where's the effort? who's still rocking mad hair? where's our lethal red-zone kicking game? forget about it. f**k it. it doesn't exist

we're all as guilty as each other, although suity and twizzle are substantially worse. but there's no use pointing the finger of blame at these two - they are going to be around here forever, whether we hate it or despise it. and there's plenty more dickheads just like them. we can't do anything about that. let's just focus on what we can change

i want to see our club give a shit about everything again, enforcing every player to wear white boots (always clean) and assuring they only use the most expensive hair-care products each and every time they plan to step out onto the field. our club must look to the heroes of yesteryear for inspiration. i want to hear our new players saying "jason moodie would've scored from that position" and "daniel wagon would've tackled that bitch." we have to forget about mediocrity. like john morris, we have to be excellent. no excuses. just be excellent. f**k man

This forum has always been full of cliques, and the only change is that different cliques are forming as people stop posting as often. Overall the forum is negative, with bi-polar postings smashing players one week, praising them the next based on results.
There are not many informed, constructive debates, but when there are, it is interesting. I like checking the forum to see if there are any scoops and to see who we may be signing.

In short, not much different from many forums about different topics.

Clique example - it would take one of the regulars to post on this thread (if at all) to generate a subsequent response. :)
