Rumours and Stuff

[84 Baby]

Even when we made the grand final our defence was average …. Someone may check but i think we were bottom 8 defensively

So you’re saying we’re still a chance this year then?

I don't believe he is more successful actually. If he was he wouldn't big note about it on a footy forum. People who carry on like him are hiding something.

As @hindy111 correctly stated, how do you measure success? For me, it's happiness. Are you happier than me? If you are, you are definitely more successful.

As far as I see it, there's only a few things wrong going on in the U.S.A.
It all revolves around the 2nd amendment of their constitution. I doubt many of them have actually read it They probably think it to be a lengthy document and cbf'd. It's only a few short sentences. Those sentences are quite specific in that the right to keep or bear arms are dependent on being a member of a well organised militia for the security of a fee state.
In other words, if your gov has become tyrannical and no longer working for the people by the people, then it's time to do a successful Jan6 job on capitol hill and flush out them deep state merkins , have a coup and start again refreshed.
Those yanks are far too pissweak for that. They would rather just parrot 2A 2A as a justification for their firearms without actually using them for what the purpose of that amendment is.
The home of the free and the land of the brave, my f**kin arse!

You don't know what you're' talking about. Have you been there? I've lived there. And stop posting in the wrong thread about political stuff.

Happiness is an emotion.Emotions are fleeting. I'm not sure I'd connect an emotion with success.

Fail.

We were top 8.

We were 8th!!

OK, so you've got a point, our defence is never elite.

I personally think it is the structures. Also when did we last actually have a defensive minded coach on the staff?

In all honesty, I though BA was the defensive master mind.

We had kidwell for a while

There's no formula for happiness, that's guaranteed to work.

Well the question would be what is sucess I guess. Someone who has built a financial empire? Someone who have developed many deep friendships? Someone who has helped others with generosity and time?
Someone who has banged 100s of women may think they are a big succes.
I'd argue the most successful person are the ones who can live humble,gently and modestly without creating friction amongst other humans. But social media wouldn't agree

I agree.
Banging 100's of women would be good, though.

Lol. Battlers will keep on battling ...

 

[Legal Eel]

Well the Merkin Pou may be right ffs!

Get him into our system!!

He’s not because we have an endemic issue with the way we coach defence from pathways up

Sounds awful …. Did you hear some of our players have been held together with sticky tape

I’ve been there quite a few times through many states, even the middle ones.
The reality of what you experience when you’re there, compared to what you might perceive through media, are worlds apart.
America is an idea as much as a country and needs to succeed, as an idea and a state, otherwise we’re all f*cked.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Ah noooooo players don't just wake up and are defensive dynamos ya Merkin..

It also brings me back to the fact that the club never got their defence better over the years had plenty of time to either coach them into being better at defending or get the right guys in.

You will notice how the dogs are priding themselves on their defence even though most of the players are plod.. It's because it's how they have been coached..

Or is it how they've been recruited?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It was highly experimental but I doubt we would agree as to what that experiment was.
Anyone could catch it and spread it to anyone, jab or no jab.

See, this is dishonest. It turns a quantitative fact into a simplistic qualitative binary. It's like saying seatbelts don't stop you dying. Risk controls don't have to be 100% effective to do their job. If they reduce the risk they are effective.
