It is what some on here have indicated is all that they do during the day. I bet you did not see Agar he would have been at home deciding on what to wear tomorrow.
For those of you such as Willzay etc. I am being sarcastic just in case you did not get it.'"
You really are a sanctimonious piece of work.

| No I am just one who will not be bullied by people like you who believe that all the woes of the world will be sorted by the sacking of Agar. The last time I checked the forum was not a dictatorship where all must accept the will of you and those like you.
I notice that when anyone posts a view that is contrary to what some of you believe you are all quick to try to put them down, I say good luck to you because I am not that impressed by those tactics.

It was me and Snowie and a couple of others throwing the ball about you were watching ,hope we were using the paint brush ok hate to think it was being held wrong

| Quote ="TURFEDOUT"A commendable effort at justifying Agars bizarre selections.
When Luke Robinson goes to hooker Hudds still have some quality at half back.
When Rob Burrow goes to hooker Leeds still have some quality at half back.
In addition Robinson and Burrow still get their hands on the ball and are pivotal.
We remove potentially our two best quality halves,put one to full back and the other on the bench,neither are pivots anymore and replace them with Sykes and Seijka.Against Warrington we had plenty of possession in the first half but Agars halves created nothing.Indeed a glance at the points scored column since Agar paired Seijka and Sykes makes for pretty dismal reading.
The red herring - Daniel Smith,thats totally different,=#FF0000Wigan,Leeds,Saints,Warrington are among a few clubs that have been using the loose forward position to actually play another out and out forward rather than a more traditional loose forward.The teams doing this still want the player to perform the same role that they would when playing prop.
It wouldnt surprise me in the least if Mathers was still on the wing and Riley or Owen were left out.'"
Its working really well at Cas with Millington as well.

| Whatever team plays we need to get the basics right! The team who completes their sets and dominates in defence wins.
In 'Yardage' we need to have, quick scoots and strong carries with plenty of push and NO offloads.
In 'Good Ball' we need competent skill levels but be patient and not worry about scoring from every play. Put on the plays but don't over play.
With last kick options in Yardage, we need to turn them around and have a strong, aggressive kick chase. No easy yards and extra effort in their first 3 tackles. Restrict yards.
With last kick options in Good Ball, we need to be looking at repeat sets. I would utilise this option consistently.
In defence we need to dominate from the start. Dominate your opposite number and dominate as a unit. Win the ruck battle and set the marker. They will have momentum at some point but make sure its not in the first quarter. When they do have their momentum period it is even more important to complete our sets so that we can turn them around and get the momentum back.
This team is good enough to beat Bradford, individually and as a team whatever is selected. I will be disappointed if we don't!! This team has SL Dream Team, Challenge cup, Grand final, NRL, State of origin and World Cup players in it. I hope they add SL survival to that list! On a personal note that is just as impressive! Doing it when it's tough, dirty and when people expect you to and want you to fail...
The points deduction.. Forget it! You can't control it. Move on. Its all about Game Day!!!
Are you going to show up, do the basics and give 100%?
Players under performing, have you been honest with yourself and ready to turn this around?
Players performing well, are you going to pull the other lads in your direction?
Are you going to put your body on the line?
Are you going to be strong in Defence?
Are you going to back your mates up in Offence and Defence?
Are you going to give an individual and team performance to be proud of?
Over to you guys.. You've got what it takes. I honestly believe you can do it, I really do. Do You?

| It is refreshing to see players picked in their proper positions, though I see only one prop on the bench?

| Fantastic !!!!! 1st pressure from Bulls & Purtell scores, our 1st pressure we knock on. 2nd pressure and theyre in again. 2 pens to nil in Brads favour - looks like we've REALLY been putting in the hours in training to rectify issues. 12-0.

It isn't the fact you have "opposing views". It's the way you come across. The context. The tone. The sarcastic comments. No one, including me, is particularly bothered about you having a different view. You're entitled to believe that to be the case, though.
