Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and More Crap V

sure we didn't finish highly on the table but there was a massive difference in our attitude last year to 2010. with some attacking players coming in this year nad some backrowers hopefully next year, it think Kearney will have the team he really wants to build a solid future in the Blue and Gold with

I don't understand that logic... people seem to remember 2010 a lot worse than it actually was. In 2010 we were inconsistent over the course of the season, but we put a couple of short streaks together, and we were still a chance of making the finals with 2 games to go. In 2011 however, we had to win our last game just to avoid finishing last. Give me 2010 over 2011 any day.

You can have 2010 Gronk, personally I'd prefer '81, '82, '83 or '86.

Agreed, I didn't see many positives about last year on the field, the recruitment was the only positive of last year!

World peace? Easy.

Don't stop fighting until one side wins.

or until everybody is dead.

Kearney's proven he's not shit but he hasn't proven that he is a coach who can get us higher than 14th on the ladder yet either.

From a sample size of 1.

This is not the way to find 'proofs'!!!

 

[oldmancraigy]

It's not rocket surgery.

Well good - because what the hell is that?!?!?

(Were you carefully choosing between either Rocket Science or Brain Surgery, but ended up going halves??)

A common internet meme...

Kearney's 3 year deal should be honoured but I wouldn't even be thinking of extending until the end of the season.

There was more than one round last year just in case you didn't notice.

 

[Bigfella]

In that case he proved after one round he could take
a side to the top of the ladder.

 

[Avenger]

If we start slow watch the Brian Smith rumours of a return to Parra surface.

It's ok, some people just don't get the ironing of it.

You assume the winners are going to kill themselves? From too much partying maybe. Ooh what time is it?

Time to kick it!

But there was only one season where we finished 14th. As number of seasons go, it was far too small a sample size to declare shitness. Have I mentioned Hasler took Manly to third last place in his first season in charge? In his second season they scraped into the 8 and got belted in the first semi.

Are the knives going to be out for Kearney if we do the same because "He can't get the boys to lift for a finals match!!!!! :shock:"

You better f**ken believe it.

3. Rocket Surgery
A word dumbasses use, in confusion with rocket science and brain surgery, when trying to insult someone else for not being able to perform a brainless task.
"Explaining this to you is like trying to explain rocket surgery to a genius!" "It's rocket science, you idiot."

"It's not rocket surgery!" "Of course it isn't, because that doesn't exist, moron!"

Might just be me, but if I was to use a phrase I might NOT use the one that, by common usage, declares me a moron!

 

[Parra Pride]

Lol, "A word dumbasses use", Rocket surgery is two words, so whose the dumbass there?

Might just be me, but if I was to use a phrase I might NOT use the one that, by common usage, declares me a moron!

A mixed metaphor describing a non-existent, yet implicitly high level of qualification. The greatness of this term is in its subtle ability to call someone stupid twice in one euphemism.The irony may go over someone's head and they would call out that this field of study doesn't exist.

A: Come on, it's not rocket surgery.
B: Are you f**kin geniused? There is no rocket surgery. Anyway, this is hard. I don't want to f**k up.
A: No dude, you're geniused. Just match the colors so I can jump start your car, dipshit.
