Rumours and Stuff

[lucablight]

You're saying he set them up for success?

Every scenario needs to be examined on its own merits.

 

[Bandwagon]

So why isn’t venting our frustration on a footy forum and identifying where we think our issues lie also a consolation? Why do you get to take the high road. It’s largely the same thing…how we deal with a loss.

There's that, and that's fine, then there's taking it to the point were it's pretty obviously just agenda driven rubbish.

Which is childish and rather tedious.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Dunno what sort the of bloke he is off the field, but if there's a bigger f**kstick than Josh McGuire in pro sports on the field I haven't seen it....

Actually a nice dude, came to my sons training and was good…..

Because your 'consolation' is at the expense of others.

Some merkins want to put shit on the club even after we win. They deserve what they get.

Dude…

But it’s no more a ‘celebration’ than your prize money after a loss, which you inferred.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

And he gloats about it. What kind of fan does that? I don’t even bet against the eels.

Who's gloating merkin? I'm down $700 this year because we're so f**king good. I love it! And I love that you merkins have been so wrong.

I'm putting my last $400 on the Panthers and I hope I lose that too. And if I do it won't mean I knew we were going to win (or I wouldn't have made the bet) just like if we lose it won't mean I knew we were going to lose. I won't be telling merkins I told-you-so or putting shit on them for thinking we can win, because I also think we can win. But if we don't win it won't be Arthur's fault or anyone else's. It'll just mean Penrith were better than us, just as they have been all year. Their points differential proves that. They've been better than everyone.

 

[JokerEel]

Of course I can. Like I said, we know what you are. There are plenty of merkins who can corroborate that you crow when we lose and downplay our wins.

Now this is where you say you were just fishing and it's a joke lighten up.. Don't get your knickers all bent out of shape

So does everyone here pick the Eels everyweek in thier footy tipping competition? If not than

Well it is. To them a loss means it proves Arthur can't coach. Nyah nyah told you so. I don't think a win or loss proves anything. Both outcomes are always possible. I track Arthur's win percentage because I believe it says far more about his coaching than the result in Penrith next week or the game after that.

 

[Legal Eel]

Nobody is predicting the future. I'm sure we can all agree with that. It comes down to fans who hope we win vs 'fans' who hope we lose. It's that simple.

You have the troll flag flying proudly now don’t you?

this is a new low in trolling, even for you…

I wouldn’t call a bit of ego a celebration for losing, rather a coping mechanism for a loss. Anyway, we’re not going to change each other’s minds tonight, I just took umbrage to your notion that you think there are fans on here who hope we lose. I think that’s plainly false.

That's why I used the term 'fans'.

Doesn't make your false assumption correct though...

 

[hineyrulz]

The bet was $100. Not $50. I don't bet 50s.

Hindy is a powerful millionaire, stop being such a weak gutted dog FFS!!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He might be a powerful millionaire. I just did my arse backing the Storm (vs us and the Chooks), Broncos, Bulldogs, Seagulls and Panthers ffs! The $200 I won on Souths doesn’t even come close to covering my losses. f**k you BA and Parramatta!!!

 

[IFR33K]

How about when we win a regular season match where we were outsiders, or go on a winning streak and some random troll bumps the ‘do you want Ba as coach’ thread. Do you find that childish and tedious?

Only an idiot doesn’t learn from their mistakes
