What is it that you all really want???

It was an attempt at mocking GKJ79's odd reluctance to spell "f**k" probably. He replaces the "f" with an "£".

Odd reluctance ????

By your own thinking process you should loudly applaud GKJ79's decision to use the keys of his choice to represent the word f**k because obviously you and everyone else understand his intent and he has chosen not to go down the sheep route of letting the forum pre determine the spelling for him.

Please practise what you preach

Following the english language properly is being a sheep now?

No not at all but making a conscious decision to do something different is apparently something that you now want to argue against.

You understood the intent of the post so mission accomplished but you insist on being a pedant and wanting people to follow your way of doing things.

For the record f**k is not actually the correct spelling either nor is it in the dictionary or part of the English language.

These are all logical fallacies.

"McGregor is bad, therefore, by association all his actions and idea's are bad".

Blooding Aitken and Dropping Lafai were the right things to do, period.

McGregor is capable of making good decisions, in case you didn't know.



You have no idea, you said he dropped Lafai to blood Aitken? Remember that Aitken was the one that was dropped at the start of the season, for no reason other than to accommodate Mcgregors prized signing Lafai, because Mcgregor decided to play Mann at fullback and move Dugan to centre, Aitken was blooded last year before Lafai was even thought of, the centre pairing at the start of the season should have been Aitken & Dugan, but yet again Dopey Mcgregor was out to destroy the confidence of one of our up and coming young stars "Aitken", by dropping him for no good reason, Aitken even said in an article that his form didn't warrant him being dropped, he wasn't quite sure what he had done wrong, and that he would just take it on the chin, so Mcgregor is actually not capable of making any good decisions, in case you didnt know.

Straight Shooter.

The only odd one on here is you, for your pathetic attempt to imply Mcgregor has made any good decisions, re coaching the Dragons.

# £uck off Mcgregor, and take Dragonscales with you.

Picked Lafai 19 times so doesn't deserve praise for a decision forced upon him and which is far too late to do any real good for this season.

Dropped Aitken to make way for Lafai and the botched attempt of Dugan to RC which ultimately cruel-led Mann for far too long so again doesn't deserve praise for yet another decision forced upon him.

Now if he died on his sword then you would probably praise that but not sure we will get to do that.

Ehhh this makes zero sense. Dugan got moved back to fullback because Mann was playing like a busted. How did giving Mann an opportunity cruel him?

I would argue moving Dugan at all was the mistake, shifted our best attacking player rather than choosing a side to make the most of

Game 1

Dugan should have been FB full stop.

Mann should have been LC full stop.

Aitken should have been RC full stop.

Lafai should still be at the Dogs full stop.

Because of Dugan to RC and the insistence of playing the BIG STAR SIGING Lafai, Mann goes to FB and has a retched introduction and is consequently dropped.

The imposter Lafai then gets continually picked and Dugan goes back to FB and Mann remains in the Cutters.

IMO if Mann had of played LC straight up we would have seen the best of him from game 1.

I wasn't talking about this year you moron, everyone else on this forum (except you) knew that I was talking about when McGregor made the decision to blood Aitken in round 3 last year against the Raiders. Which was a good decision.

How about McGregor's decision to start Tyson Frizell in the second row in 2015, when he previously played both Prop and Second row?

How about McGregor's decision to start Leeson Ah Mau at Prop in 2015, when he previously played exclusively as a edge-second rower.

McGregor can and has made good decisions. It's reality. Deal with it.

Despite this, I still maintain that McGregor is the worst coach in the NRL and I long for the day he's gone.

No one is denying that McGregor makes a plethora of poor decisions. That doesn't mean he can't make good decisions.

IMO you are far too literal and microscopic in your assessment of some of the posts, after all you are not marking examination papers here.

Nobody thinks he is incapable of making a good decision but the overwhelming evidence is he fails to do so, even including falling on his own sword.

Dads Mc Gregor got all his kudos for 2015 when he was roundly applauded including the blooding of Aitken and making the 8 etc etc.

The forum is about the here and now the 2016 season and this year his only likely contender is dropping Lafai but my contention is simply that he had nowhere else to go so no decision required, however if he had dropped Lafai after 3 or 4 games then I would agree that he made a good decision but that simply didn't happen.

Bare in mind that i was initially responding to GKJ79's who believes that McGregor can't and hasn't made any good decisions. He believes just because we want him sacked, we can't give him praise for the (extremely small) amount of good decisions he's made.

Also, do you honestly believe that any other coach would've dropped Lafai faster than McGregor? Lafai has been as bad as his 2015 season, yet Des didn't drop him.

Far too literal, allow people some licence for god's sake.

The shit far outweighs the good so nobody cares about the minute good things when the bigger more meaningful things are so apparently atrocious.

Des made a decision in 2015 alright he offloaded the lemon centre to us.

Any coach worth his salt would have dropped Lafai 15 weeks ago.

This disagreement is going nowhere and is pointless.

We pretty much agree on things except for the strenuous detail.

Hey Moron,

Des didn't drop him, he sold him to Mcgregor instead, hahaha, add that to your list of good decisions he's made.
