Rd8: 8pm EELS v Broncos GAME DAY THREAD @ TIO Stadium - Darwin 21/4/23

[the phantom menace]

You can’t argue with stats mate. They are facts. Probably why they frustrate you so much.

You can argue against stats that don't support what the quote of stats things they support.

That's what's happened here, and not before time... don't forget link one and/or link two .

There's nothing about sloppy analysis (quoting some random ill-applied stats) that magically turns opinions into facts. If you want to read facts done well, click on the link Chipmunk posted in the Stats Thread - and think twice before you try and post anything less and pretend it's profound in future .

How can someone who's done 78,000 posts (mostly in strings of dubious statistical inference) accuse someone who's done 4,000 of chasing them around the place?

Last I heard, Hayne is settling in well with his new cellmate and the warders are keeping Bubba at a distance. But there's a Blue Light Disco this Friday, where word is that Bubba wants to share a dance...

Well pretty easy about 3800 of your posts are following Pou around like a lost little dog.

I suppose it would be pretty hard to shit down your own neck.

Seems like a lot of effort just to lay a turd.

 

[hindy111]

Especially if you accidentally pulled your bum off.

When the village idiot clogs up every thread here with irrelevant and off-track stats masquerading as opinion, there's no following around involved.

The f**ker keeps replying to my dismissals, and I keep giving him the mental health and ignore links... I think he just likes to talk dirty to me, as some sort of iamgined foreplay?

 

[hindy111]

Atleast mine and @Gronk war is entertaining. Short sharp quick exchanges.
This bitch fight is boring. If you don't like Pou ignore him or f**k off. He brings a lot to this forum. Unsure why people get upset for him being him. Accept him or putting ignore. Simple.
He isnt going to change and he shouldn't have to.

The fact you have abandoned any attempt at logical rebuttal in favour of personal attacks shows that the stats and analysis do indeed support my position. Analysis is where I got my position in the first place, and how it continues to evolve.

That bloke isn’t going to save you mate. His analysis lines up with my own. We are poor when we don’t control the ball, which is why we need to play boring footy, especially early in games when opponents try to bash us. I’ve been telling you this for years, every time some idiot complains about fourth tackle settlers and other non-issues.

It’s sad.

By that logic no-one else should have to change either - so it doesn't work.

Pou's the one whinging over the past 24 hours that someone's finally showing his dodgy use of selective stats for what they are. He can accept that people don't need to agree with him, or put them on ignore. He's been given the link multiple times... simple.

And sorry to tell you again - your "war" was far from entertaining...

Here’s a tip. For bartman it’s got nothing to do with the stats. He was very interested in my wife’s wedding photos a while back. Draw your own conclusions.

Personally, I think he might be my wife’s troll account. That bitch.

Do you even know what your position yesterday/today is? Is it still that the team is going great, Hodgson should start and play 80mins, and nothing needs to change?

You haven't shown any sign of evolution in your position until 6 months after the coach of the day decides to make a change. I guess someone has to be last to realise the earth wasn't flat...

No I made clear that analytical disagreement is fine. Others manage it. You have abandoned all pretence of disagreement and have gone all in on personal attacks. Maybe you don’t realise how transparent you are?

No, ity's got everything to do with your ill-informed and lazy dishonest use of random stats, to support contrary analysis for the purpose of clogging up forum threads with shit.

Lol, there you go again, Mr Ad Hominum....

But I call him childish names and also abuse him with filthy language. How is that not entertaining ?
Call him a merkin atleast

How successfully do you manage where others disagree with you...? Or is it just when I'm bored and decide to show your analysis and flimsy tangential use of stats up that you get all twisted in a knot and go personal...?

Maybe you don't realise how transparent you are... where are those two links you might need again?

When were those ever my positions? My position was that the coach makes his decisions on more information than any of us have access to. Any weakness we have might be the best we can do. It’s great that Hands has emerged as an option in the 17. We just need to find the best balance between the two hookers. Was 80 minutes of Brendan Hands proven by the win over the Bulldogs? My sample-size-dar says it’s unlikely, and the coach seems to agree.

Apologies if my trust in decision makers to make decisions in their own best interest offends you.

Probably take your own advice then hey hit that ignore button instead of chasing that gotcha moment

Please post them again. They are really working well for you. lol mental illness!

With all due respect... that's a pretty shitty position, that no stats will ever serve to prove.

Why do you need to keep agressively stating versions of the same position every week, in multiple threads, using selective and often tangential stats as support for what really underneath is just your opinion - no different or better than any other merkin's opinion on here? And why do you get so tangled up whenever anyone questions your opinion...
