    You picked fucking Shannon Boyd in your side a few pages back. Yeah, gimme de Belin instead any day.
     
  2. Toolman TR Man

    The only thing he'll offer is a chance to bring QLD back in the game when he does something stupid.

    Okay so A.what does Boyd have to with this? I’m just curious as to why you and everyone else think he’s awesome.

    B.Boyd and de Belin don’t even play the same position so why are you comparing them?

    And C.Boyd has some of the best post-contact runs in the comp. He has some deficiencies defensively but I don’t see why he’s not a prime candidate for a bench/relief spot when he makes over 10m per charge and virtually never gets driven backwards. He’s also one of only three players who’ve played every match this year without making a single error.

    Not really sure why you wanna follow the tired old blueprint of playing backrowers up front but yeah...

    Yeah good points, but what about S.Boyd?
     
  5. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Even by your standards that’s fairly ghey, Wilson.
     
  6. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Still have no clue who Freddy’s gonna pick to partner Maloney. Any thoughts?
     
  7. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Absolutely no idea. I don't even know who I'd pick, letterlone Fittler.
     
  8. Alec AD Funkotron

    Keary IMO

    That stats page just showed me Maloney has 96tackles with 55 missed. Fuck he sucks.
     
  11. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    What exactly constitutes a try involvement? Seems rather broad to me. Try assists and line break assists are much more pertinent imo.
     
  12. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Gene Miles all but declaring it'll be Hunt and Munster. I think it's the best we can do with DCE barely being able to lead Manly atm let alone the Maroons. Hunt could be really successful in Origin. He has shown enough form this year and a couple of years ago to suggest he has the ability to be an elite, world class halfback. But when given the plaudits it's usually been followed by utter direness and literally reserve grade standard.

    I hope that's all behind him, that he can handle the transition and make the QLD no.7 his. We really need him to not just for this year but for the next 4-5 years.

    Fuck it's gonna be weird watching QLD with no Thurston or Cronk.
     
  13. Wilson SB Wilson

    Yeah but what about S.Boyd?

    Yeah good. Well I’ve tried to get discussion going in this forum as much if not more than anyone since it came back online. Start a general nrl thread so we actually get some match commentary and one of the unbalanced retards complains about it being polluted by match comments, as if we had any cunt on here, him especially, willing to actually make individual match threads.

    Do people actually come on this forum, bad joke as it is, to talk footy or what? I mean brilliantly crafted as your jokes are, Wilson, especially repeated for a second time, do you or anyone else actually get any enjoyment talking about RL? On this forum it’s getting pretty difficult to imo.
     
  15. Toolman TR Man

    i've actually made match threads before
     
  16. Wilson SB Wilson

    Just like sand through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Once this year. The forum is dead and you’re actually complaining about a thread which initiates some discussion instead of none, lest it be derailed. How idiotic can you possibly be?
     
  18. Toolman TR Man

    i was just saying was all, no need to bully me. sometimes match threads got like 3+ pages and when you have them all in one thread it starts to get a bit messy trying to read through it the next day after multiple games the previous night. it hasn't yet though. you better make separate origin game threads at the very least.
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I'd rather there be separate match threads, but I cbf creating them myself, so absolutely complaints from me if no-one else can be fucked either. Having this thread for whenever no-one has created a match thread is perfectly fine IMO; definitely better than just having no thread at all.

    EDIT: Actually this is the Origin thread, but you know the thread I mean.
     
  20. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Nah you’re a fuckwit. No cunt wants to post here because of you and Wilson etc. and then you complain about a semi-decent solution to the very problem you’ve helped to create. See how much discussion you get when I’m not initiating 95% of it.
