| Quote: Dunbar "What Clarke actually said was that Huddersfield’s focus should not be on scoring – that they should be capable of scoring 10 points in the remainder of the game and should not concede any more. As this comment was made when Warrington had just forced a goal line drop out at 24-16 up it seems to me to be eminently sensible to be focussing on not conceding any more points As it happens, the Giants did repel that attack and then straight away another set of 6 from another forced goal line drop out and then went in to score themselves to take the game to 24-22 with 7 minutes remaining While the Giants did not go on to win the game, the comment by Clarke to focus on defence and keep themselves in the game was very sensible (as you would expect from a former Great Britain captain) It’s a pity that 15 pages of debate stemmed from this miss quote'" If Starbug had just done the normal thing "hands up, wrong" then....yeah. I'm still not sure if he doesn't understand, is trolling, or just so boneheaded he has to try to defend his position whilst knowing it's wrong.

Quote: Richie "then it's probably my turn to start answering.'" You dont know do you? ,if its not in the ' book ' you're stuck I'll give you another 10 minutes

Quote: Starbug "They lost, simple as, dont try to justify Clarkes comments because the didnt concede any more points, if you are losing, you need to score, that IS your priority'" This whole debate started with you criticising Clarke for saying that the Giants priory is not scoring. I pointed out that he didn’t actually say that (the fact that they should focus on defence when lining up to take a goal line drop out is surely beyond debate!) Yet you still continue to argue about this concept of priority on what is essentially a made up quote. I’m not sure there is a conclusion to a debate about the relevance or accuracy of something that wasn’t actually said so I will gracefully exit stage left from this thread

The difference being?

Quote: Starbug "They lost, simple as, dont try to justify Clarkes comments because the didnt concede any more points,'" Yes they did, you silly fool. Grix scored five minutes from the end. And the moment that Wire scored the game was effectively over. You'll probably refuse to accept that as well.

Quote: Lord God Jose Mourinho "Yes they did, you silly fool. Grix scored five minutes from the end. And the moment that Wire scored the game was effectively over. You'll probably refuse to accept that as well.'" Yes they did, have to say I'd forgotten , all still irrelivant to the point of the argument

Quote: Starbug "You dont know do you? ,if its not in the ' book ' you're stuck I'll give you another 10 minutes'" Then what are you going to do? I'm kind of interested in what you might threaten to do. BTW...your question was answered a few pages back.

Quote: Richie "Then what are you going to do? I'm kind of interested in what you might threaten to do. BTW...your question was answered a few pages back.'" I was specific of those positions , half back/full back , loose and hooker ?, their instructions for an exit set
