Rumours and Stuff

Glen is the textbook definition of a deathrider. Genuinely enjoys hanging shit on the club to the point that he invents things to be upset about. Like a minimum wage squad player being a "sign of desperation from BA"...what an absolute crock of shit.

I'd call him a broken record but at least he's flipped on the fat prop mantra but still

No one has ever or will ever do anything better than Bowie

My favourite Bowie song was the one about "The Little Fat Man with the Pug Nosed Face"....

He’s banal and facile, he’s a fat waste of space.

Hayne?

Love Bowie he was an absolute genius but Nirvana’s version is better.

 

[Glenneel]

I reckon our ruck defence would be woeful.

We'll see in the game, good test for both sides.

 

[Glenneel]

We have improved the squad, through internal and external signings.

The club signed Williams. I thought he was the sort of fat player you like?

You've been listening to Bazal too much. I've never advocated for a fat player ever anywhere, just bigger middle forwards with some skills, that is all I've ever mentioned!

Gee can't wait for Fiji v NZ game on Saturday. I reckon Fiji might beat them, Hayne is playing a good 5/8th game and they're big, strong and fast all over the park. If we had their pack how good would we be?

Btw how big are Junior Paulo and Papalii? Both look about 10kg overweight. No wonder Raiders didn't make the finals, you just can't play to your potential being so overweight. Junior has shown some patches of brilliance tho, late offloads that have lead to tries, but think how much better he'd be if fitter.

Junior Paulo is destructive - but honestly, give me Daniel Alvaro any day.

Junior Paulo could potentially win you a Grand Final with a big run and/or offload - but Daniel Alvaro will help you not lose a Grand Final with stoic defence.

There you go again talking absolute shit about me again. Show me where Williams is being paid minimum wages. I only ever point out the obvious things with the club, the things YOU apparently cannot see. I mentioned bigger forwards and now BA is buying bigger forwards, so who is right, me or you?

Actually the fat props thing wasn't me. I carried it on when it became clear you wanted big fat slobs like Paulo. But I didn't start it

I reckon Tony Williams is a good signing, tbh - cheap, a big body, and definitely skilled.

He could even kick goals if we needed him to.

Wait...so are you right, or is it a sign of desperation?

Can't have it both ways. Classic deathrider post though, can't resist bringing up how horrible the club is going (according to your own miserable perception)

Yes and I'd still like to have Paulo in our team, but not at 10kg overweight. BA never had him playing at that weight. If we still had him I doubt BA would let him get that big.

Don't deny it Baz! :dodgyeyes:

This is actually what I said. 'Not sure whether I like him or not. If his mental or physical problems are not fixed we'll have she rex who is next to hopeless. He couldn't even make the Sharks side this year. If signed sounds like desperation from BA. All the players that will have to be released because clubs have exceeded the cap haven't eventuated.'
Thought I explained it clearly but apparently you have a problem comprehending it.

Williams obviously has a problem, once he was a skilful, destructive forward who played in SOO and for Australia and for the last 4 or so years has been hopeless. Imo not up to first grade standard. Unless those problems are fixed why would you buy him? Was BA holding off waiting for the supposed fire sale of players from other clubs that hasn't happened?
Is that any clearer, and where was I death riding the club?
**I underlined the important part so you wouldn't miss it!

 

[Bazal]

If signed sounds like desperation from BA.

Yes. You said it sounded like desperation. Then you said you were right because we're signing bigger forwards.

So which is it?

The obvious thing I can see is that you are a deathrider

You constantly whinge that we don't have big forwards then probably went on to say that we need jnr paulo back and probably someone like kasiano or something like that. I don't exactly remember what you said months ago.

Back up half too...

how much does the Earth cost and who is selling it?

I believe it's the meek trying to cash out their inheritance...I knew they wouldn't have the stones to do anything with it...
