The squad in full ishttps://www.therhinos.co.uk/news/15600.phprl

WOW.

Thats the strongest line up for many a year

Yup. Me too.

That probably confirms the thinking for the start of the season proper....looks like BJB will have to wait a little longer for his overdue extended run at FB. Centre or wing it is then for him; FB only if Webb (and Smith ?) injured.

Isn't it just squad number order?

I doubt Burrow is playing centre.

Merry xmas Gotcha. ...Read the original post more carefully....namely the positions "confirmed"

Might be more inclined to take the 100 mile journey though if Burrow does play centre ...could be a good xmas chortle in the spirit of the festive season. Delaney playing there is almost as funny.

Quite. I mean, with the massive contribution Buderus has made to our success over the last 10 years he's entitled to rest on his laurels a little. His commitment can't be question. No, really.

Also it doesn't say anywhere that Cross will be playing Prop so I'm hoping to see him have a good run out on the wing.

Talk about pedantic Gotcha!! I don't think nantwichexile's post deserved that level of questioning even by your usual standards.

Nantwichexile was clearly just saying that from this squad, the general consensus would be Mac has a preference for Sinfield (rather than Webb) at 6. Thus the observation it could happen this way in SL also, meaning BJB would be missing out on playing an extended period at FB. Key words are PROBABLY and EXTENDED PERIOD AT FB.

Nowhere does Nantwichexile say BJB won't be playing FB this game, nor that Webb will be. Just simply that should Mac's preference for Sinfield at 6 continue into SL, BJB would PROBABLY miss out on an extended period at FB.

Perfectly legitimate comment.

Expediting new year resolutions a tad early this year aren't you?

You PHIL this forum with silly arguments on a DALY basis.

Get over yourself.

Utter bo[ill[/iocks and you know it is.

Firstly.... NOBODY has time to post on a forum, but not time to "argue". There's no necessity to comment on here at all. Nobody is counting how many times a day you post. If you've got time to write the post, then you've got time to argue. If you haven't got time to [whatever] just don't come on here and post at all. This is a leisure activity, not a mandatory requirement. Starting a post by effectively saying, "I haven't got time to post" is just a stupid notion.

Secondly.... Nantwichexile never EVER said it was CONFIRMED that BJB would [etc] as you've just stated. Luckily, we have the ability to re-read what Nantwichexile actually put, thus proving you're talking your usual bo[ill[/iocks.

Nantwichexile simply said...

Which is a totally legitimate statement, because if Mac has a preference for playing Sinnie at 6, then it does look like BJB will have to wait a little longer for his overdue extended run at FB.

Your pedantic and unreasonable level of questioning comes not in your "is that the squad no. order" post, but in the post afterwards. You know that's pedantic. That's the definition of pedantic. "It doesn't specifically say that Webb will be playing FB? What's making you assume he is?"

Basically what happened is you didn't read my original post properly, which NE then picked you up on, but instead of saying... "Oops you're right! Sorry I didn't read that properly!" you went down the route of creating a completely bo[ill[/iocks argument to try and justify your completely bo[ill[/iocks post.

Anyway, seen as you "don't have time" we can both just leave it at that.

Really?

A quick run through your post history may give a very different point of view.

Gotcha - the poster with more holes than swiss cheese.

See BB... what he's doing now is "cleverly" (and I use the term loosely!) not replying, because several of us have pointed out the obvious flaw in replying to a post you're claiming to not have time to reply to.

Genius!
