Quote ="Barnacle Bill"Except he has since explained to you that it was not the point he was making at all.'"
He, like you, have failed to see the two sides of the same coin. My argument, made time and time again here, which you still seem to be struggling to understand is that the struggles of the heartlands, and the struggles of expansion are different. I thought it obvious, maybe you needed it spelling out for you. But similarly the strengths of the heartlands, and the strengths of expansion are also different.
Quote I do not agree that Quins are responsible for debts incurred by Hull KR. Who would? It is an absurd argument you made up solely so you could refute it. Well done.'"
And the premise that that was an example of, do you agree or disagree? Or you can sit here and debate with yourself about the strengths of an example taken out of context ignoring the underlying point. I imagine you would be good at that
Quote Exactly, an absurd argument which, if anyone other than you is claiming with any sincerity, I have yet to see.

So you have never seen someone link the struggles of heartland clubs to the expansion of the game?
Quote I disagree with absurd statements generally, you know things like "At Leeds the only reason a young English player will not get games is if there is a better young English player in their position".'"
Then surely, for the millionth time of asking, you could provide an example of a young player at Leeds, who isnt getting games, and doesnt have a young british player ahead of him who is getting games. To prove your point. Otherwise you are simply asking me to prove a negative and ridiculously sitting back thinking the impossibility of proving a negative has proved you correct.
Quote Who would possibly be so self righteous and pompous as to claim such a thing and then immediately defend the signing of aging Aussie has beens like Cross and New Zealand never was's like Hauraki? Crazy eh?'"
i dont know who would do that, certainly not me.
Here is what i said about Leeds signing of Hauraki
Quote ="SmokeyTA"
Leeds shouldnt really add another overseas player, should they add Hauraki i would be very disappointed, He wouldnt add a great deal to the league, isnt great and we already have enough.
This would be like the signings of Blake Green, the resignings of Jake Webster, Rhys Lovegrove, Ben Fisher, and Joel Clinton.

But Im sure no-one wants to watch you get all confused about Lee Smith being kept out of the Leeds side despite playing 17 of 19 games he was available for, so lets not cause this thread to drift.
