Two teenage boys from Greenacre have been identified as the persons responsible for the death threats directed at the family of Parramatta halfback Mitchell Moses.

Moses required an escort in and out of CommBank Stadium from the police riot squad and a security team during Friday night’s win over the Warriorsdue to the threats.

“On Sunday 10 July 2022, NSW Police commenced an investigation after receiving reports of alleged threats made towards a 27-year-old man,” NSW Police said in a statement.

“On Monday 18 July, Detectives attached to North Shore Police Area Command attended Greenacre and spoke to two males aged 15 and 16. They will both be dealt with under the Young Offenders Act for using carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence.”

Yeah true. People aren't clones and some have better quality boards and or Chairmen or CEO's who then attract better quality staff and coaches who then also attract better quality football personnel, who then set up better coaching and development structures that identify the better players coming through and who also have the pull to attract the super star talent if necessary and this is all happening while the powers that be(that better boards) are also attracting plenty of good sponsors and financial opportunities for the club and players while playing and life after football and who know spending the $5m non player salary cap fully and wisely is just as crucial as spending the players cap.

Yep so true pou, people aren't clones. Smart observation mate and here we all were thinking that you were just a one dimensional silly bugger who over complicates everything and elevates stats to God status and while minimising the human factor to negligible. Great to see you've change mate.

Big ups to you buddy. Big ups.
The thing is mate, we can only quantify and agree on these differences because of stats. Just because I understand statistics and you don’t doesn’t mean I think stats are the driver. They are just the indicator. But without them it is difficult to prove anything.

People have always wanted evidence. It’s just a question of how much will satisfy them. If you’re just looking to have your assumptions confirmed you won’t need much evidence. 😉

As long as it’s convenient for him, that’s the main thing.
Reminds me of the old joke about a nursing home that advertised a job for a handyman. This bloke walks in for an interview and the nursing home manager asks
"Do you know how to fix door handles?"
"No" was the reply
"Do you know how to repair roof tiles?"
"No"
"How about painting, can you do that?"
"No"
"What about electricals, can you fix that sort of stuff?"
"No"
"Sorry, but you don't seem to have any skills we're looking for, what makes you think we should hire you as our handyman?"
"Well I live just down the street, that's pretty handy..."

Really? Are you that naïve?

Jeez mate I know you like hammering the media for fake news all the time and sure they deserve it most of the time, but sometimes your blind resentment and bias against them makes you very basic.

Maybe you should take a step back and try to see a few different angles in this story. It might not be so black and white.

or maybe you should consider you are not the only person here with an opinion

Sure. But big moments aren't in stats. Guths stats I reckon will show he is a better player then Latrell. And so many peanuts on here called him lazy and fat. While I called him one of best in game. He is a beast and genuine x factor and twice the player of Gutherson even tho stats wouldn't show this.
