Widdop seeks release

I never liked when people used to claim that new posters were Vas/Sigaurd. I always thought it was a bit unfair.
But DragonJ is Vas. Its clearly him/her/it.
I don't really care if you think I'm Santa Clause or Reg Gasnier posting from the netherworld. If you like start a new thread to speculate on it but on this thread, stay on f**king topic!

Evidently I'm far from the only one who thought Widdop sucked in the halves. Reading between the lines, judging from what they quoted Ben Hunt as saying yesterday, he thought so as well. Seemingly even McFooknuckle has gotten it through his pea-brain.

As I told @TruSaint, I looked through the entire thread after his extraordinary outburst. I found the attitude of several posters even more extraordinary. If things go badly for Widdop at fullback I know you will throw everyone and everything under the bus to make excuses for him. But I'm confident things will go well with Widdop at fullback and more importantly, Norman at 5/8 and I will remind you of it. No need to thank me.

Seriously, give it a rest.

You've managed to needle a couple of people into giving you a serve, but to be honest, your schtick is getting tired.

Try some new material or STFU. I'm not as averse to trolls as most in here, but at least be creative about it. This shit is boring as f**k.

As you are the resident expert on all things Norman can you please provide the supporting data as to the games he has won for the teams he was playing for especially those wins that were in "clutch" situations as after all that is you major issue with Widdop. Seeing Norman is such a huge upgrade IYO those facts should be readily available to you.
Youtube will no doubt have all these games somewhere and I look forward to looking at how he single handedly garnered the wins especially those that propelled his teams deal into the finals play offs.

Yeah, ok. Because I refuse to engage in hysterical personal attacks or useless speculation due to disagreement over the merits of one player in one position and insist on staying on topic, that makes me "a troll". Seriously! Oh, well, in that case I will be a troll and if you don't like it, you can GTFO of my discussions. Capiche? It's not rocket science.

I'm not an expert of all things Norman. I haven't followed Parra ever. I only remember watching them in the latter stages of the competition in 2017 and in games against us. Based on those games I thought Norman is a gun and will be a tremendous signing for us.

As for You Tube highlights I think you are missing the basic premise of my idea about Norman. He doesn't look anything like a Sean Johnson or Milford or Morgan type half. From what I have seen of him, he looks like a guy who leads the team around the field, organizing, calling the ball when needed, sometimes running, sometimes kicking, sometimes passing late or early depending on the situation.

IMO precisely what we need and precisely what Widdop has failed miserably at.

I understand everything that you've said except "capiche".

Dude, in your very first post on this forum you went on the attack and had a go at muzby. In the same first ever post you said most guys in here are old and don't get laid and finished the post with leave me out of your bullshit, I just want to post from time to time.
Time to time? You are quoting every man and his dog on the forum 10 times a day looking for conflict!
Funny stuff.
Anyways, its good to have a bit of a douche bag on the forum to add some colour, well done, you are that douche bag currently.

English language is sometimes difficult. Try this: https://www.dictionary.com/

In future just go straight there rather than leave a message about any vocabulary you don't understand here. Or at least start a new thread titled "Vocabulary I don't understand" or something to that end.
If only you could get on the field for our golden point games.
You being a complete drop kick would ensure us a win.

I think you say this nonsense just to get off topic. Ok, just this once I will do as @TruSaint wants.

In the interests of accuracy, my first post was stating about how Hayne at this point has done absolutely nothing wrong. He is accused of a crime which he states never happened. And the accuser is "known to police". The post was deleted due to references to a certain body part on females starting with "p".

This resulted in a hysterical reaction from @Old Timer and the following from......... the No.1 ******** (fill in the blank with something, or several things, bad):
No.. Carlton got it spot on, both with his statement and his summary of you. Old Timer gives some sage advice there too.

Sitting here trying to work out if you are:
a) just trying to get a rise out of people
b) celebrating your first time today and couldn’t find anywhere to brag about it
c) just not particularly bright
d) all of the above

I’m currently leaning towards d..

In reply I stated this:
I'm not completely new to the forum. Only new to comment. I started watching it on an irregular basis about 8 months ago. It was a good place to get news. To find out whats going on when the slide inevitably set in. I don't know too much but I know Muzby on pretty much every thread or every page of every thread leaves snide and what he thinks are witty but most people think are lame little remarks.

I also know Possum, whose style, or whose dreams I like. Everyday he posts a message imagining every player who has so much as been rumored to be a free agent at some point in the future, and quite a few who haven't, in the Dragons 2019 team.

Aside from that there seem to a good number of angry old guys who haven't eaten Hayne's favorite food in a long time, grouching at each other and everyone else. I don't want to be part of that. I only wanted to give my thoughts on the 2019 team and maybe from time to time post a message. So pretty f**king please, leave me out of your little cliques.

And so, if Hayne is cleared of all charges and his only crime is being hungry for something he couldn't get in good quality in Western Sydney, I hope he is signed. I liked Dufty as a player but he really lost me in the back half of last season. I now he apparently isn't that much smaller than Barba or Slater but if that is the case, those extra few kgs seem to make all the difference. He looked to me like a boy playing with men quite often. He needs a course of mass increasing PEDs. Who cares about his long-term health if he can help the Dragons win premierships in the near term?

So, now we can both see you are lying, lets get right back on topic. If you don't like my opinion, or more specifically, my opinion on Widdop's tenure as our main playmaker and his lack of playmaking ability, you are welcome to block me. From now I won't reply to your personal attacks.

On the other hand, if you want to start a thread to talk about me, that's fine. If I see anything mentioned I have a strong or relatively strong about about, I will probably reply.

You are an interesting person. I see you are absolutely and hopelessly smitten over Gareth Widdop. That's fine. But being smitten over Widdop doesn't mean everyone else is bad. I have seen you being critical of Ben Hunt and Corey Norman in relation to Widdop. They are both Dragons players! They will be well after Widdop is gone.
Then there is your denouncements of Hayne, Benji, McFooknuckle and the entire team except Widdop being to blame for the lack of success over the last 5 years. I'm sure if I dug a little, many more. You tell me. Apart from Widdop, Hunt and Norman, what do you think of other guys on the current team? How about Jack? So far from what we know what he did was worse than what Hayne did morally but legally, he is innocent as far as we know.

After that, shall we get right back on topic? Do you disagree with my characterization of Norman vs Widdop?

C’mon @DragonJ why’d you edit that post?

Now this reply doesn’t make any sense:

I still say d)...


So.. for context for everyone else, this is what it refers to:

No.. Carlton got it spot on, both with his statement and his summary of you. Old Timer gives some sage advice there too.

Sitting here trying to work out if you are:
a) just trying to get a rise out of people
b) celebrating your first time today and couldn’t find anywhere to brag about it
c) just not particularly bright
d) all of the above
