At that particular time that post was made back in 2009 (yes 2009), Rovers where a top-three side so my statement was 100% factually correct so not sure what your point is.


Typical back-peddling once your pathetic engineerring has been exposed. You now more acurately state that I have been bigging up Moore, however [unever once[/u did I state he was the [iideal[/i candidate as you have insinuated, attempting to portray me as a "club apologist".


Thinking a team would a little worse than expected happens by many people everyday - so what? Besides, your performance on the show is pitiful to say the least with your cowardly backtracking when challenged by Craig Murdoch.


Again, during that particular tournament, Fox was the better winger and Tony Smith agreed by selecting him after Briscoe's lack of agility to turn and gather kicks was exposed. As far as stating he lacked the athleticism to be a winger is more of your manipulative fabrication.

When all's said and done, I continually expose your sad agenda of attaching ridiculas amounts of significance and importance to what is basically "rugby league chit-chat" which indicates you have some kind of inferiority complex.

Your outlook on this board is more of a "commentator rather a contributor" which is concurrent with the behaviour of a parasite - you really need to get a life...

Can I be the referee?

That's a pretty good riposte there from young Master Zod.

Just needs cab man to back him up...

"Mike Smith is possibly the best communicator the club has ever had". I rest my case.




[u"A little worse"?[/u

That's a bit rich. You said they were finished as a play-off force and would struggle to make the 6 in future. 2 Grand Finals and an away win at Wigan later pretty much exposes your judgement as, er, flawed. I’m feeling generous.
I was rubbish. No shame there. It wasn't really cowardly, though, more that I was completely outwitted by the cheeky Cumbrian halfback. You win some, you lose some.



Apart from these direct quotes, you mean: "I've felt the need to educate the FC fans about why Tom Briscoe [udoes not have the athletic ability[/u to play at international level unlike Fox."
"His l[uack of athletic ability[/u was exposed and exploited in terms of his lack of pace and agility and if you can't see that, then you really know nothing about how important the back-three's (i.e. [u2 wingers and full-back[/u) role is in modern-day RL"
"[uI agree about him not being a winger[/u, but even in the long term he won't make an international centre. The kid has the mobility and strength of a forward and I could see him maybe moved into the [usecond-row[/u one day"
In answer to what Tom Briscoe lacks: “ Speed and agility in bucket loads.”

Look, if you don't like being reminded of saying things like, in response to the question "Who do we want to sign as prop, if we could choose" when others were saying "Adam Blair" you picked "Joel Clinton", then don't say stupid stuff. Lordy. Moth to a flame Zod. It's good to have you back though, having been MIA for much of the season. A public service I carry out on the boards, drawing you in.

15 all.........................

God I am so lost with this zod v Barista I bloody knew I Shud ave bin a barrister wasted I am

I am a bit too. He's just so angry and aggressive about everything. I think he might feel a release of all that pent-up excitement next Tuesday when he comes to the Fans Forum. Then we can all settle down again to shouting the pre-season odds, assuming the signings are astute enough, which I believe they are.

Well ain't it a winger were signing Scottish he is in Australia so we have English in griffin, irish in mcconnel and wats his name who is Scottish thatl do me

zod is ok I think u two just rubbed each other up wrong way

Aw spoilt sport

OK Dad.

Why?

It's amusing, the majority of posters appear to be enjoying it.

I think you'll find this is my gig.

Barista just knocked some of Zod's arguments out of the park.

Game point to her.

Come on zod come on zod lol

I can train him up. You're actually rather easy to defeat. Once I get him over his "little man syndrome" (he is very short and weedy) we'll have you in our pockets.

The offers out there Mister Zod, do you want a Barista defeating coach or do you wish to stay in the twilight?

You mean 'OK Mod' obviously.

Look, don't you be luring me off topic and hitting the ban button. I've been warned.

In answer to the topic title, I think 13. A question for all those saying Joel Clinton is leaving, where exactly is he going to?

wudnt be same wiv out u and I can see Clinton staying there is no reason for him to go is there

I am only 3ft 9in and struggled with the 5kg dumbells at the gym the other night so please leave me alone. Do you have "big man syndrome"? you can get over it if you read the instructions on your lithium medication you know.

Superb riposte shorty!

You'll need more of a major tranquilliser to bring this unit down though sweet cheeks.

Does it really matter whether clubs develop home grown or not anymore if players like Rangi Chase are been selected for England?

Exactly farce if u ask me

Back on topic (I know, well someone has to), disappointingly I was unable to listen in to the fans forum tonight. Are we now crystal clear on Rovers quota and non fed position?

Im very much aware that you probably did hear it, but its like this (I think) I couldnt work out whether Galea, Dobson and Webster had come off the quota list or the non fed list :

Quota:
1.Green
2.Clinton
3.
4.
5.

Non Fed:
1.Green
2.Clinton
3.Galea
4.Dobson
5.Taulapapa
6.Webster

or

Quota:

1.Clinton
2.Green
3.Dobson
4.Webster
5.Galea

Non Fed:
1.Clinton
2.Green
3.Taulapapa
4.
5.

Can't really get 95.9 FM over here unfortunately. I did try and listen online but all I could hear was "I'm Coming Out" by Diana Ross. Honestly, do people actually listen to James Hoggarth in circumstances other than being too lazy to switch it off after Sportstalk? Bit of a concern. So have you got any free spaces or not? Mild Rover is good at this, but I think the extent of dispensationitis has even challenged [uhis[/u expertise.
