No?
Thought it must have been just a slip of the keyboard . . . .
Remember : the AUP is your friend. Play nicely within it
To be honest, I'm struggling to see any criticism in that post whatsoever. Seems like more of an explanation.

That's exactly what it was. so when they all decided to turn it into a Wakey Vs Bulls argument and offering personal abuse, it was my good self that got done for 'taking the thread off topic' and causing a riot, yet it wasn't, as I commented on the Tronc headline.
Same different board with Huddersfield, it's one rule for them, and different ones for anybody else, or should I say rules for everyone else and none for them.

It would be a lot better if that one certain person that wields power wasn't so influenced by the Third Reich so much that they apply the policies to RLFans. Not you by the way.

| I've had a punishing schedule today, but last time I was on, wasn't this thread about where we would finish in 2010, and not perceived wrongs by mods on the Giants board?

Yup! Our Mods need to look at those who deliberately/consistently destabalise threads.
Genuine opinions, good/bad/indifferent should be welcomed and even asides are acceptable.
An entire change of subject within a thread should not, especially if its from a self promoting numpty.

That's a tad unfair, FA was trying to get the thread back on course.

I would say totally agree...except I'd better not because that could be seen as public criticism of the moderating process and I'd get AUP'd...
Anyway, sod "look at" - more like
As for where we will finish - I have a sneaky feeling we may surprise a few. If we have better luck with injuries and the threequarters play out of their skins, we could challenge for the top four IMO. But its a big ask, cos we face stiff stiff competition in an improving Wigan, Cats, Hull, maybe Hudds. Leeds will surely finish top again, but I suspect Saints will slip a bit down the rankings. One day Wire will live up to the potential with their moneybags side - good start to the season and they could be the ones to topple Saints? I suspect we will see another season where there is not much in it outside the top one or two down to about ten or eleven even. Salford Crusaders and now Quins look much weaker than the rest so far?

| it's always dangerous trying to predict finishing spots so early! one point on our 3/4s though. Reardon, Halley and Nero have got to tick the boxes on most Bradford fans lists? My only potential (defensive) worry is Sykes. McNamara has Crookes and Platt to play there so we've always got options. There's even Sheriffe to cover a wing spot so no player in the 3/4s has a certain start unless playing well. I would hope that would stand us in good stead during the season.

Sheriffe to cover a wing spot? It looks a lot like he's first choice. It's the combination of him and Sykes which worries me most about our side.

apologies, got muddled up there.
my main point was that there platt and crookes can step in should form drop.

I agree they can step into the centres. However I don't think either of them look like wingers. Haven't seen Crookes play there much (if at all) but his style doesn't seem to fit a winger from what I have seen of him. Platt I am very happy with playing in the centres, but not on the wings or fullback, as his high ball defence is just too shaky.
I know I've said it repeatedly, but the wings are clearly our weakest position. With only Reardon who could do a decent job there or moving Halley from fullback, they are the only good options. But, I'd give up decent wings for decent halves, and we finally seem to have that, so hey ho, can't have everything.

| I can't see Jason Crookes ever making it at the Bulls. He looks far to small and weak to me. A bit like Ashley Gibson. Sounds harsh, but I think it will be the thruth.

Saints have managed to get away with Gardner on the wing so Sheriffe should do till his contract runs out.
