The Rumours Thread

[Saints Forever]

Unsure much has really changed for our club.

Jack Bird has been injured for the past three seasons.

Josh McGuire is far from outstanding.

Young Saab should very little to justify a place in the squad.

Joe O had a very poor season with the Broncos.

The Roosters fringe first grade prop has been solid under Robinson.

I would like to see how the following forwards respond under Hook.

Kerr
McInnes
Vaughan
T.Sims
Ford
Lawrie
Fuimono
Merrin
Blacker

Our forwards may be unrecognisable under the new coaching staff.

I would not be surprised if a number of them improve significantly in 2021.

It’s too early to press the panic button in my view.

I expect Hook and Elliot will target some players from Penrith and the Broncos.

I don’t expect the squad to be settled prior to mid February.

Well you should know as it is a perfect description of yourself so I’ll take it as gospel.

Pathetic.

I kept hoping I was wrong, but apparently I wasn’t.

You’re a sad excuse for a human being.

 

[blacksafake]

Reports are stating that Josh McGuire will stay at the Cowboys and the deal with Joe Ofahengaue has fallen through

Jason Saab is set to be released to Manly and Manly will pay a transfer fee instead of the proposed swap with Reuben Garrick

The deal with Fa’amusili is on the rocks aswell as Trent Robinson is keen to keep him at the Roosters

All this following the failed Jack Bird deal

Why isn’t there a dislike option

Pathetic.

Once there was
Cisco & Pancho, Batman & Robin and now we have muzby & SBD82 saving the forum from the evil doers lol.

The transparency of your posts and in fact your very existence in this place is there for all to see.

You are there merely to provide some form of limp arse support for muzby and you barely appear unless he comes under attack and you become the asker of constant questions in an effort to divert away from muzby's merkin tactics.

Re the Dragonsamy issue of muzby calling him a drunk and inferring he was drinking etc etc etc you are trying to shift the goal posts a typical muzzy tactic and now wonder why you do it.

You subtly try to manipulate the argument as evidenced by you now asking for proof that Dragonsamy was a confirmed alcoholic which is just shit tactics on your part.

At no stage was its ever said that Dragonsamy said he was a confirmed alcoholic but posts provided by others showed clearly where he declared he no longer drank and that was due to having issues when consuming alcohol and that is not in dispute by anyone other than you or your alter ego muzby.

The real issue at hand is muzby handing out sermons to people for "trivialising" things and him categorising them as socially unacceptable but all the while handing out plenty of barbs about people being pissed or drinking especially Dragonsamy.

The defences offered up by muzby and or you that Dragonsamy did this or that is irrelevant it is all about muzby "trivialising" the social issue around alcohol whilst being more than willing to pull others chains over "social" issues.

If you don't believe what I am saying is true then run a survey and get a feeling from the forum as to what the interpretation is.

So a nice try on your part but alas your manipulation of the debate is not going to work and is actually what is pathetic.

 

[muzby]

Take it to the swamp OT.


Stop ruining threads with your rants about me.

No one cares.

No manipulation on my part. And I couldn’t give a shit about your forum politics. I’m being very straight forward with you, something that it appears you are incapable of.

Your deliberate obfuscation fooled me into thinking that Muzby had made fun of a confessed alcoholic. I thought very badly of him for that.

To my shame, it turns out you managed to manipulate me, and you’re too much of a coward to admit it. In my books, that makes you the lowest of the low.

You are complete hoax and your limp efforts are visible to all.

Your alter ego muzby is a merkin and just as guilty of all the things he accuses others of.

Your faux outrage is laughable.

Well if you and your alter ego don't care don't ask questions and don't post about it then you won't get responses or haven't you worked that out yet.

LOL your usual rant about ruining threads.

I have no idea how you have come to the conclusion that SBD82 is a "hoax".
That his "limp efforts are there for all to see"
I enjoy his contributions and find his input insightful, he has a laugh along the way. And I reckon I'm not alone. In fact, I'd say its probably only you that has a problem with him.
Maybe you should take yourself less seriously sometimes OT. Let others have their opinions. Let a few posts go through to the keeper.
SBD82 isn't the bad guy here.

Ok. So now in your mind I’m using alt’s.

Maybe it’s time for a lie down.

I respect your view but the evidence is quite clear.

muzby bullied and taunted Dragonsamy and continually threw out the drinking / drunk barbs and all the while getting up others who made light of other issues.

SBD 82 often turns up defending muzby's actions by running an inquisition on his behalf as he has done on this occasion and using the laughable question of did Dragonsamy admit to being an alcoholic whilst ignoring the posts of Dragonsamy admitting he didn't drink due to having issues with alcohol.

So on this occasion he is the bad guy by not pulling muzby into line for his abhorrent behaviour in light of his attacks on others that had made light of social issues.

You can't have the pot calling the kettle black which is exactly what is happening with muzby's actions.

What utter bollocks.

You were deceitful, and got called out for it. Deflect all you want, but that’s appalling behaviour.

 

[muzby]

How much do I owe you in rent for your head OT?


Can you do me a favour - point out to me where Samy said to me, or anyone on here, that he is an alcoholic.

Because I think you’ll find that’s another thing you’ve simply made up in your own mind.

And the invitation is still there to carry this on in the swamp where petty fights belong.

 

[blue bags]

Hmm I'm not so sure now.
Harry Grant has come out and said if Cam goes around next year, hell be at the Tigers.
Brandon has also said he'd look elsewhere if Cam is there nek year. No way are the Storm going to lose both Brandon and Harry for one more year of Cam.
If I was in Warriors recruitment I'd be telling Brandon that even with no Cam next year, he'd be sharing the spot with Harry, on the money he is now and no Bellamy moving forward.
He's got a chance to come to the Warriors on better coin, we're on the up and the hooking role would be solely his.

your thoughts on this topic , 3 players , harry, brandon, cam, and bellyache bellamy

Show me where I ever said that he said he was alcoholic?

I said that he pointed out numerous times despite your assertions that he didn’t drink and he admitted that he and alcohol had issues and didn’t go well together and for that reason he had stopped.

Those posts have been reposted but obviously ignored.

So if he didn’t drink and he pointed that out several times including why that was so what do you call your actions for continuing on with the allegations that he was drinking or drunk as that is the very heart of this conversation namely your actions.

Okay, so you’ve backed off the alcoholism path now I see...

So show me where he told me he had “issues” with alcohol.

There have been multiple times earlier in the season where I have seen Dragonsamy state that he doesn’t drink anymore due to issues of the drink. Whether that was health related or personal issues when drinking who knows cause it was never explained and nor should he have too. I’m sure if you go back over earlier game threads where he said it over and over and I’m sure you’ll find it

 

[SGMax]

Maybe if there were "agree" and "disagree" buttons it would help keep things on topic.
"Like " is so subjective. Hopefully less posting of arguments.
Why can't we all just get along!!??

I refuse to get drawn into disputes past one or two replies....I state my point of view and hope it means something to others either way.....usually on the salary cap and our poor defence.

I’ve never seen him tell me he had issues with alcohol.

If it really does mean that much to you and OT, you can show me where..

But as you’ll see from the post above this one, nobody cares for this petty shit.

They’re here for rumours, not for grown men acting like schoolboys..
