Rumours and Stuff

[Captain BF]

I diidnt say anyone told me it's just a gut feel.

There used to be a time when people posted genuine rumours here and people would say "thanks for sharing your info" instead carrying on like assholes.

So thanks Avenger for sharing your info, however minor or 'gut feeling' it may be.

Player loyalty is an interesting notion in the modern game. Clubs and players no longer share the loyalty of old, and contracts are mere transactions.

Norman owes us nothing for signing him as a half. We were his ticket out of being iverlooked at the Broncos, we paid him and he turned up to play. But remember, this is a guy who allegedly needed cash payments in car parks during this contract, so loyalty may not be a primary factor in his next decision.

Why wouldn't the guy look to his next contract and choose the offer that pays him more AND gives him less media scrutiny/pressure, after going through a season where hus performances haven't registered on the comp ladder?

All fair points.

I think the problems occur when people don't preface their posts, to indicate whether their information is a) just gut feel b) a rumour doing the rounds or c) a leak/something they've "heard" from "an insider"?

Oh, and also when people get upset at the reaction to something they've posted, as if their self-esteem or anonymous reputation is somehow at stake, lol.

maybe he wants to go to a club with a lower media profile so his name isn't in the papers every single day

Not sure that's valid, don't see players such as :- Wicks, Mannah, de Gois, Mau, Tepai, Jennings, Gordon, Gutho, French for instance in the papers every day

At some stage the player has to take responsibility for what is reported,it's not as though they are on struggle street

Hopefully the partner in crime who is now in Leeds or wherever it is, by removal helps Corey see some balance in his life

He is in the papers for a reason, his off field behavior.

He is one of the reasons that Parra are in the paper so much so no one else to blame but himself imo. His saving grace is his form.

very true if he wants to tell off the person responsible for his problems then all he has to do is find a mirror

A rumour or info about a potential signing is more than welcome.
A rumour or info about one of our players acting like a dickhead we could do without.

What a authoritative dumb arse statement. Do you post sitting in your wardens uniform?

Wanker!

What if you wish with your first hand for shit in the other hand?

 

[hineyrulz]

Sounds like a halves combo of Luke Kelly and Sef Paulo to me......

 

[Twizzle]

we do post a lot of shit in here as well but you need some where to be able to do that

I always thought it was "piss in one hand and shit in the other"...

Your version makes more sense.

 

[hindy111]

Who used to watch BOTTOM?

 

[hindy111]

VAE a good signing. At his peak a big unit who is making 100mtrs+ most games off the bench.
This is smart. I reckon he cost half JNR would of and will give a similar input in a game.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Paulo has made 68 tackles since he left us two months ago, for an average of 13.6 per game. He must be defending in the centres.

 

[Parra parra]

Paul Kent is a dickhead and that's no rumour

 

[hindy111]

You watched BOTTOM pou?

they should change the name of that show from "nrl 360" to "parra bashing 24/7"
