Rumours and Stuff

As always you are just full of it. I have brought up many ideas and solutions to virtually all my whinging. Some brilliant and others not so. But to say that I don't have solutions is a total lie or you are just totally misinformed.

As for what players we should bring in, like I have stated honestly, I don't watch lower grades anymore. I have lost interest. But to suggest that there aren't quality players in the lower grades that just need a chance, is stupid and ridiculous.

The problem though, is our club is SHIT at identifying them before they go on to become quality 1st graders at other clubs. If I were to follow the lower grades I can guarantee you I would find a player or two that would be a standout performer. The Storm do this virtually every year.

Also just a question. Have we got a full time talent scout in Fiji? If not we have rocks in our head. We should be making Fiji our Pacific nursery.

As always, obfuscation. I'm all for attacking the man, obviously, it's fun as shit. But you've gotta have some answers if you carry on like a know it all. I never suggested there aren't players in the lower grades that just need a chance. In fact I have advocated the signing of several from other clubs, because I actually ensure I make a claim from a basis of knowledge and not just emotive bullshit. Look it up, you might learn something.

How can you say our juniors are shit if you don't watch any juniors? You can't. Simple as that. Making it to first grade earlier isn't an indication of quality over those who wait longer. Some clubs are just more desperate to blood players. We actually have pretty good depth compared to many clubs. The Tigers are a great example, they took a punt on Alex Twal, who was too small and struggling for Wenty (and I say that as his biggest fan on this forum), because they were desperate. We weren't.

Should we operate the same way as desperate clubs?

Simply put. Who are our 1st grade juniors playing now that were graded in the last 3 years? Three years is a long time for a club like Parra, that spends millions and has the 2nd largest nursery in the league.

French, Alvaro, Aloiai, Twal, Fuimaino, Davis, R Matterson.

I don't really know what '1st grade juniors' means. All played U20s for Parra and then debuted in first grade NRL in the last 3 years.

Do you ever tire of being wrong? Mr "My Percentage is so Low Mathematicians are Working on Entirely New Fractions to Describe it"...

I'll be here to annoy brain-dead f**ksticks who contribute nothing of value for as long as I like, tbh. If you're not happy with that, I suggest you head down to Clovelly with some snorkelling gear. Poke around under the rock shelf there, you'll find a creature that looks like this;

Now, what you're gonna want to to do is very carefully pick it up, holding it underneath as shown. Then you're gonna want to head back to shore and get nice and comfy, because what you're gonna need to do is summed up below...

See guys why they call me the master. Just threw out some elimination bait and the dummy come out of the woodwork and now we know the answer.

Jeez you guys make things complicated. Or is this purposeful?

Pitiful really. I think Alvaro was the last one and I like him as a player and in fact predicted that he would be a good one(whitey of course, great work ethic) when he was in our juniors. But he is hardly someone to cream our undies over for all the time, money and effort we put into our juniors.

We are obviously doing something terribly wrong. If we keep this up, we may as well just chuck it in and just poach like the Roosters do. Can't do worse. At least they make semis and grand finals a lot more often then we do with zero juniors.

We are pathetic. Like I keep saying...no excuses!
I’m just going to copy you and say you’re pathetic. Wow these non responses are great
