Ibeme – What Could Have Been
743 words
A piece about the possibility of moving the games young star Benji Marshall from centre to five-eighth.
Score 8.6

Not sure what's happened here, but the title's correct, but the description perhaps belongs to another article. What Could Have Been was about an old bloke named Lester.

Just making sure that the score was for the right article.

 

[El Coconuto]

Quite possibly just a mix-up. Who knows? We'll leave it for the higher authorities to deal with. But in any case, good work dude :!:

 

[ibeme]

Good game anyway. Congrats to all who played. There were some good articles in there.

You have to be bloody lucky to be successful if you don't believe in luck. What do we have to do to notch up a win? Down by 0.2 to the reigning premiers and a draw. The bounce of the ball has to go our way sooner or later.

 

[SirShire]

And why was my post deleted!

 

[Willow_2003]

Tama.. you've just broken one the main rules of the F7s. I strongly suggest you edit out the content of that post and/or I will delete accordingly.

 

[El Coconuto]

Nevermind boys, we got one point more than we did last week. Thanks for taking the time to mark our posts Salivor. You can understand our motives for being a little fired up but we understand that you don't get paid to do what you do in which case we'll be happy to have you ref us any other time. Every competition has oune tough referee and it looks as though your ours (not necessairly a bad thing either).

Good stuff Rhino's, cya onfield again sometime. I guess we just let the matter slide from here...?

 

[Big Mick]

If our performance wasn't worthy of a victory then I'd like to see what is.

Two penrith losses by 0.1 i think thats a bit more unlucky, considering I think we should have got one of those victories.

 

[Willow_2003]

For the record, salivor has explained (in the mgt forum) that the mark was correct as he saw it but the description was leftover from the previous template - so thats the end of it as far as I'm concerned. Descriptions are just a courtesy anyway.

I understand people can get competitive about these matches and is OK to ask the question, but the reaction of one or two individuals here is dissapointing to say the least. I strongly suggest those people to read the rules and in particular, the section on sportsmanship.

As a result, I now have to find a new referee for the next round.

El Coco, thanks for an excellent post.

 

[ibeme]

Thanks for marking Salivor. We appreciate what you do. I apologise if my query was interpreted as a complaint. It wasn't intended to be a complaint. I was pretty stoked with the score. I just didn't want anyone to think I was being awarded MOM mistakenly.

We'd welcome you back anytime.

 

[Rise Against]

Willow im not here 2 stir the pot as u and I have contacted through PM etc.. but what is the appropriate punishment for criticising a referee? (not saying el co co has or anything)

 

[Willow_2003]

El Coco is in the clear. In fact, his response has been perfectly allright. If anything, we discuss it in the mgt forum (which everyone can see) as these matches threads aren't for this purpose.

Great game Sharks and Rhinos. Quality stuff, even amongst the controversy which doesn't seem to be too substancial. Great stuff.

 

[Mr Angry]

Thankyou ref, ball boys etc.....
No Losers, cool.......

 

[ParraMatt]

Thanks Salivor, Top bloke, Top Referee. Well deserved draw.

 

[El Coconuto]

As a co-captain am I eligible to post in the management forum or not so? A couple of things I'd like to bring up there that don't belong in here?

If someone could clarify this for me, that'd be great. Cheers.

 

[ParraMatt]

My Vice would like to be eligible too. Gobbso

 

[SirShire]

Hey Willow - that post of mine that you deleted was only a joke and I didnt mean to stir the shite.

 

[salivor]

I've discussed this issue in the management forum but I apologise for not commenting sooner in this thread.

Basically as has already been said, it was a mistake in the description. I used the template from last weeks match but forgot to replace that description and I can see how it would come across as though I hadn't even read the essay. I can assure you that I read all 10 essays and stand by all the marks given.

Thanks to those in this thread who kept within the spirit of the game but honestly I'm not going to waste anymore time marking matches to deal with crap like tamazoids. Not only did he feel the need to have a go at me but he also felt it was his duty to tell ParraMatt what a shit essay he put forward. I assume tamazoid will be putting his hand up to referee a match next week :roll: .
