Just because they didnt kick on, doesnt mean they didnt have talent. Gafa less so, by Ale is without a doubt the single biggest waste of talent i have ever laid my eyes on. You would know that too if you had ever seen him at his best. What is wrong with you quinn, is:
1. your a complete f**king idiot
and
2. you cant make a distinction between how good the squad is, and how talented the squad is.
Our squad as it stands is not that good because a large majority of them havnt had a chance to consolidate their careers and vastly inexperienced, they are yet to complete their journey from talented youngsters to NRL players, but the talent in this squad is without a doubt in the top 4 in the NRL... its not rocket science, yet it doesnt surprise me in the least to see Ed and his crew fail to get the point.
paulquinn49 said:Again, you are wrong. Are you saying you have never NOT seen a movie on the advice and criticisms of people? Same goes with PL players, when people like you continually talk them up and tell us of their exploits in PL, which is a far less brutal and competitive competition than NRL, which doesnt stop you and others earmarking players, also drawing in and giving fans a false representation of their talents. Until they make NRL, they cant be judged as a player.
i have NEVER judged a movie based on critisims of other people, if someone who's opinion i respected said a movie is rubbish id be less likely to see it, however i myself would profess to have an opinion on the movie, as i havnt seen it and my opinion there for wouldnt be worth sh*te.
In the same breathe if someone's who's opinion i respect said a player was good/sh*t i would take it on board but i myself wouldnt express that as my own opinion until i had seen him for myself
Todd Carney is the nightmare of someone like you, you and your crew loved it when he initially hit FG and wasnt going great, not only did it apparently prove you right but you could stick to us who rated him, but as we (i speak collectively on behalf of those who had seen the bloke and knew what they were talking about instead of talking out their arse ala you) suspect, before too long he was proving his worth and will, as we said, be a future rep player.
My opinion is based on nothing more then what is presented to me, infront of my own eyes, countless hours spent watching them play... you form your opinion based on the fact that someone like me rates them, ergo they cant be any good, what do you base this on? What few minutes these kids might get in FG under a game plan ABSOLUTELY light years away from what they are used to in FG.
Now bare with me as i try to simplify this to your level.
What would happen to me if i walked into a nuclear power convention, and put out an open challange to debate anyone on how bad nuclear power is. I can tell you exactly what happen, id get made out to be the fool that i would be, as i dont know sh*te about nuclear power. Its the same thing you, ed and your crew do here... you come here and express opinions on something you cant possibly know anything about as many of you (not suggesting this is dubby) have admitted to have not seen much PL if any at all... so how can you have a justifible and relevent opinion on the matter?
the answer, you cant
stick to things you can justify your opinions on, such as the FG team, and the talents within THAT group.
