Once again Poo your flogging a dead horse. Your wrong, go back and read the posts in this thread. You don't like being shown your stupider than you think do you. Ah your a funny guy Poo. Or are you just too dumb to understand? Sorry champ, I don't make fun of mentally incompetent people. So I apologise groover :D

Mate, don't make a thread this stupid ever again. You're just upset I destroyed it with my list of nuffies who won grand finals. Bazal even showed you where you're wrong and you resorted to calling us names. Then when you got some of your own medicine you got pissy.

Think before you post next time.

I don't. its simply an indication of poor recruitment, poor player talent identification and poor future planning for so many years at Parramatta.
We have a culture of not being winners at Parramatta. Teams like Melbourne, Canterbury, Brisbane, Roosters and manly are consistantly top eight clubs because they won't settle for close enough. They are run and organised as winners.
When did we last win a Grand Final? 29 years ago. Keep defending it all you like champ, its a shocking record.

When the f**k did I defend our 29 year old premiership drought 'champ'?
I have been following his club since 1978 and have seen us win and lose, the difference between you and me though mate is I don't whinge like a little girl on an internet forum.

You stated we need a fullback, a centre, a winger, a prop and a good attacking half to partner Foran and when I asked you how the club can do that you don't have an answer.

I bet you and some of your instant gratification mates would be happy if Sharp, Ando and Seward just tore up 25 contracts and started again hey?

So go on tell me, if they did that what 25 players do you want them to get? And don't worry, they are idiots apparently so they don't have to care about managing complex salary caps and existing contracts that were put in place by their predecessors.

Yes champ, lots of us think that 29 years is way to f**ken long between drinks but some of us can realise that about 10 of those at least have been DF and 3P f**king each other and the club.

Where do I start with this one. Wow, ok I said the reason we're in such a position is due to years of poor player signings and poor talent identification. There is no quick fix because of current contracts. It's about getting people to the club who have football smarts. But that's ok groover, twist things to follow your own agenda. No need for any changes right....

No need for hysterics pool. I must have hit a raw nerve with you hey! For years you've been on this forum trying to belittle anyone who has a different opinion to you. When you run out of argument you resort to name calling and abuse
Guess what groover people don't always agree with each other and thats ok. Learn to live with it.
Trying to be a keyboard bully only makes you look like a keyboard coward.

Can't believe Poupou. In this thread he claims that our Wenty squad would win a Grand Final if coached by Kearney.

Give it a rest mate!!

I know it's hard to find an average fullback in a GF-winning side but I wouldn't have put Hodgson there.
I reckon he in 2005 was better than Minichiello in 2013 or Luke Patten in 2004.

I just like that you call people out for name calling but post nothing but accusations of name calling and disagreement or hysterics when presented with anything vaguely resembling a salient point. It's pretty amusing.

Our Wenty team on the weekend could have beaten our first grade side with the right amount of luck and that isn't even a joke. I said that before kick off against the Warriors. Wenty's forwards were huge and played tough, the backs clinical, the team could defend and I don't even need to go into the halves. There were a lot of Wenty players that have made up our first grade team even concurrently so this isn't beyond imagination.

This would be a close game:
1 Reece Robinson
2 Semi Radradra
3 Will Hopoate
4 Brad Takairangi
5 Ryan Morgan
6 Corey Norman
7 Luke Kelly
8 Danny Wicks
9 Nathan Peats
10 Tim Mannah (c)
11 Manu Ma'u
12 Tepai Moeroa
13 Anthony Watmough
14 Isaac De Gois
15 Pauli Paul
16 Richie Fa'aoso
17 Peni Terepo

vs

1. Bevan French
2. Fabian Goodall
3. Ben Crooks
4. John Folau
5. Bureta Faraimo
6. Ryan Matterson
7. Chris Sandow
8. Daniel Alvaro
9. Zach Dockar-Clay
10. Taniela Lasalo
11. Cody Nelson
12. Josh Aloiai
13. Joseph Paulo
14. Sam Gorman
15. Fred Pakutoa
16. Tui Kamikamica
17. Danny Howard
18. Nick Kassis

The board should organise this as an exhibition match with a real NRL referee, it'd be interesting. It'd be more telling than a training run.

Oh dear Bazza you don't like it when someone dose not agree with you do you :lol: Dear oh dear.

I just have very little patience for people who can't understand simple concepts.

This is the song I play whenever I reminisce on the days when Bazal and I were in love, just like you and Bazal may have been

Keep in mind they, (Wenty), were playing against a NSW cup side.

Has anyone ever seen you and Poo in the same room together?

That being said, I doubt they would organise that match, the only reason being that it'd be incredibly embarrassing when Wenty beats the first grade side, which they probably would, let's be real.

I'd love to watch that game though, I might even buy a ticket to see it..

That Wenty side would get f**king pumped by the FG side.
What a ridiculous comment.

Let's not get excited, pumped, really? Half of the players in that Wenty team have already played for our team (some even consistently) before and the other half are biding their time to replace half of our team that wouldn't get a run at the good clubs. The thing that would get them over the line against the FG squad would have been Sandow. From 1 to 7 do you really see a significant difference in quality, I don't. Would it be uncalled for if that Wenty 1-7 ran out next week? Probably not. And from our first grade team on the weekend, do you see under-performing "star" players for most of the 8-17. I do. If you don't believe we are that bad yet I suggest you have a 6 pack of redbull and open your eyes, we are dead last with 3 wins and 7 losses and haven't even STARTED to begin to address the real issues of the past years.

I'd love to watch that game though, I might even buy a ticket to see it..

I'd buy a membership to watch that game for 26 rounds a year, at least I'd enjoy it more.
