Superthread LXXIII: Honouring He Who Shall Not Be Named

[Misanthrope]

I like Thurston. His... incident aside, I think he's a nice enough bloke. Far more talented than Johns...

Got to be trolling. Nowhere near the player Johns or even Lockyer were.

And it's *incidents*. Where there's smoke...

f**k Marika Koirobete. That is all.

Johns was good. Thurston is great. Let's catch some fish

Only heard about Coffs. Johns is a druggie, womaniser and alcoholic though.

This is the first time I've ever heard something argue that Johns was anything less than 'a great'.

I'm not even kidding. I've heard people argue guys like Lewis (ha!) or Lockyer were better, but I've never heard him not called a great.

I think you need to go back and re-watch Joey in his hey day if you think he was only good. The guy did all Thurston does in attack + 20 times his defensive work.

I don't get the Thurston hate. Apart from the Coffs cloud he seems like a good guy & the merkin can play.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Example, Soward. I hated the p*ick, even when he played for the Dragons. However, other people liked/loved him and often regarded him his favorite player.

Go quote my post ;-)

He was a great. A shit human, but a great on the field.

I liked Soward even when he was at the Dragons. I like players with a bit of personality.

 

[Twizzle]

Cowboys bandwagon for me.

How was he a shit human?

 

[Drew-Sta]

Soward gets a bad wrap because he shows too much passion in ways society disapproves. He can be a bit of a whinger, but he's no Jason Maher...

 

[Misanthrope]

So he's not a crazed libertarian?

I'm just over the media fap fest over him.

Taumalolo or morgan will hve blinders and thurston be poor, yet its all thurston who won the game for them and gets motm.

But beside that, seems like a top bloke, a great player and deserves a premiership.

 

[Jason Maher]

Mozzies are bad today.

 

[Jason Maher]

Thorson, even when he plays poorly, he's still the ultimate competitor.

Competitive missed tackle to let Cronk score last night.

How is JT a nice enough bloke, but Joey is a shit human?! Either you don't know much about JT off the field, or you have a biased view of Joey!

 

[soc123_au]

The fapathon does get tiring. I hope if he finally gets a premiership with the Cows it eases off a bit next year. I mainly want the win for Coote & Cooper. So good to finally see Coote have an injury free run & be playing so well. Cooper is just a great player, I am still sad we didn't keep him.

Cowboys bandwagon for me.
