Finchnicov will do a splendid job being a 140 odd game player in the NRL compared to the no bodies on here who have played zilch/zero/пустой указатель NRL games.


If it was up to me it would be either Finch or Morley as captain

Morley yes.

You coment on Finch shows what a total knob end you are.

 

[melon....]

sorry, you have to be able to actually play the game and not spend 4-5-6 weeks at a time wearing a suit on the sidelines.

NOt really true or fair. Morley was heavily targetted by incompetent idiots with a whistle this year. 2 of his charges were dropped with no case. I think he has settled nicely, but still plays a mans game, something Bribane players havent been able to match since The Raging Bull retired.

 

[melon....]

I'm surprised you're so anal about the subject that you'd actually take statistics on Rooster bashing! You must be obsessed with it!

The only reason why there is "38%" :roll: less Rooster bashing is because wankers such as yourself, Cockburn, OVP, Chook and Melon haven't been in here lately sprouting pig swill about how bloody great your beloved Roosters are, how crap other teams are by comparison, and how "flukey" it is for other teams to beat yours.

Most of you have been pretty quiet, hibernating in the sewers that you came from, hence less Rooster bashing. Nothing more.

I never left moron. Ive been in here through the good and the bad.

It might be of interest to peruse the Centrebet odds for the 2006 season. Even if some people regard the Roosters as a "crap team" they are the 3rd pick in the betting by the bookies.

Dragons $4.50
Eels $6.00
Roosters $8.00
Cowboys $10.00
Broncos $11.00
Tigers $11.00
Bulldogs $11.00 Knights $11.00
Panthers $17.00
Sharks $21.00
Sea Eagles $21.00
Rabbitohs $21.00
Storm $26.00
Warriors $34.00
Raiders $51.00

Centrebet know Finch will be dropped. Otherwise we would be at 48 bucks not 8.

Melon, I think you know that statement is a gross exaggeration and it is disappointing to see you carry your vendetta on Finch away from the People's Wall.

You do not have the support of all Rooster supporters with your FOFF sentiments.

That betting market will fluctuate on a team's performances and not on player selection.

He probably doesn't, but I'd wager he has the support of all Roosters supporters with at least one toe in the lake of reality.

Jimmy. Im not a YES man. I can formulate my own opinions, without bias. You dont have to agree with me, but for god's sake, dont pretend you know football, when you clearly know sh*t.

Thanks Skeepe. What Roosters Fans have to realise is some of us, have followed and continue to follow the club for over 30 years through the dark hours. We waited 30 years for Glory again, and instead of having a hat trick, we have a half arsed halfback that could not put on the plays when they were needed in the big games. Idiots like Jimmy, love and deserve mediocrity. I went through 20 years of mediocrity and morons like Langmack and Vautin soiling our holy jersey....enough is enough. Finch is f**ked. 99% of opposition fans can see it, and 90% of Roosters fans that know football and arent wet pantied 15 year old Ho's do too. The rest can enjoy mediocrity and Da Finchy, but not at my club.

 

[Smartman]

It was no given that the rooters would of won the premiership the last 2 years if they had another halfback.

 

[Jimmy]

" Idiots like Jimmy,love and deserve mediocrity."

I have been following Easts for more than TWICE as long as you and its possible I know twice as much about rugby league.
I do know that we have a coach who would be snapped up by many clubs if available and I'm extremely confident he knows a lot more about the game than you.

As I told your FOFF supporter on the Wall, Ricky Stuart has a contract with the Roosters to select the team without consulting Melon or any other know-alls.

Well then Jimmy, youd have witnessed our only spoon in 66. You clearly misunderstand. The length of time is not proportional to ones knowledge of the game. The length of time in this case serves to indicate the spectrum of crapness weve had to endure. No we have come full circle. If you know an ounce about football, you would clearly see, the reason we missed out on the finals for the first time in 11 years was teh fact we could not score points. Our defence was in teh top 3. Our attack, led by Da Finchy, was pathetic. He squanders opportunities and panics under pressure. The game against Cronulla should have been enough for you. 1 minute to go attacking in there half we need to score to win. What does your hero do? Kicks for touch and hands them possession and the game. No bomb, no grubber, no chip, no effort. You probably stood and applauded......maybe you do know league...maybe you are just f**king blind?

 

[Jimmy]

Melon, you are missing my point. I do not claim to be a master league tactician but, unlike you, I am prepared to rely on the judgement of Ricky Stuart who has first class credentials as a specialist half back and highly successful club and SOO coach. I have seen numerous mistakes made by Finch and other team members and Stuart has seen them more than us with constant replays of game tapes.
I think the coach feels worse about failure than any supporters so it is in his interest to select the players who can achieve the best results.
It is HIS call and I ask you not to refer to people as idiots just because they don't share your point of view. One more thing, my eyesight is extremely good.

 

[Pantherjim.]

Perchance, do you carry your cigarettes in your t-shirt sleeves, Mr Jism ?

Perchance, do you still keep your penis pump in an accessible location, or have the male hormones kicked in since your alteration from womanhood?

 

[Pantherjim.]

I've been here all along, all season. Haven't been anywhere.

I never left moron. Ive been in here through the good and the bad.

Yes, but neither of you have been in here of late sprouting the inflammatory cockroach excrement that you usually do, as you did in 2003/2004. Neither has Cockburn, Chook, OVP or the other Roosters f*cktards. which was exactly my point. Hence "38% less rooster bashing"!

I don't really "hate" any team -- I have a certain amount of affection for all of them,

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Come on RLE, who are you tring to kid???

You HATE Penrith! If you're not busy attacking our crowd figures, you're trying to suggest that we shouldn't be in the N.R.L, or that our 2003 Minor Premiership and Premiership year was not deserved, or a fluke. You make it a point to insinuate that we are not worthy of glory or are a living joke compared to other teams in the N.R.L.!

but having said that, the times when I have degenerated into "hating" a team -- it's always because I have perceived that team to be a threat to the Roosters.

Methinks a small part of the reason why you hate Penrith is that deep down, you do indeed consider them a threat to your beloved Roosters. Methinks there is also a lot of jealousy on your part, for our success in 2003, which is why you feel we didn't deserve it! :lol:

But the "hate" is always temporary. It's certainly not "real" hate. Maybe with you it is. I don't know. Maybe you really do "hate" the Roosters. That would be pretty tragic, though.

I don't hate the Roosters. I dislike them in the extreme. There is a big difference in "dislike" and pure hatred. For me "hate" is irreversible. I've never actually disliked the Roosters for any great length of time. There was even one stage where I thought they were a fantastic club. During my stay in Prince of Wales Hospital at the young age of 9 years old the entire 1983 Roosters first grade squad, including Ricky Walford came into the childrens ward, signed my leg cast and gave me an autographed pic of the team which I still have to this day. I didn't have the heart to tell them I wasn't a Roosters supporter as this act of generosity has still moved me to this day. The reason why I dislike the Roosters is because of their fan base. The attitudes and mentalities of individuals I have met in here, on "The Wall", on the Panthers website and at home and away games, have given me little justification to feel any other way about your club.

My feelings can, however, be changed.

If you honestly believe that Stuart is responsible and has the last say in ALL team selections....you are wrong. Do you know whowas responsible for the selection of Walker and Hodges in the 04 GF?

Not Stuart. He was adamant of their exclusion. But there is another cancer in the club who is past his use by date. Remeber the look of knives that eminated from Stuart as the Dogs started celebrating? It was aimed at teh Cancer.

That Cancer is Gould. It wasnt the only incident where Stuart was over ruled on selections. Did you know that Jimmy? Or are you still seeing things through the rose coloured glasses have a view of Finch as our halfback is a justified selection?

Love Finch all you like...probably as mucg as you love Gould...but know one thing, fan of 1000 years. You and I are in for an aweful time, if Finch is our halfback next year for too long.

We will never win a title with Finch at halfback. We willmiss the 8 again. Big calls? No. Proven fact.
