Im sure im quoted at the time saying something along the lines as........... What Sally Nook getting to a final has to do with the Giants then i dont know, not taking anything away from their acheivement.
Surprised at Ponner's comments to be honest, i know of at least 1 player who does a lot of presentation nights, coaching, watching at amateur/kids level, maybe he does that off his own back, i dont know

The figures are the answer not simply a suggestion to make a comparison.
The phrase
" The Giants since getting the licence to remain in SL for 3 years guaranteed seem to have forgotten about the community game!"
reads like a criticism to me. If it is based on fact it is fair criticism. Otherwise it is criticism without evidence - which I have called muck raking. So far no evidence has been forthcoming

Smashing logic. When fans or even coaches of other clubs criicise the Giants based on their own 'biases and anecdotes' we challenge them. We do so with the facts.
Apparently when a 'Giants fan' challenges the community work of the club based on anecdote or a single event its okay.
Maybe if Justin Morgan or Nobby would say we had forgotten about our community game since getting a licence posters may think it worthy of challenging.

That's right...no numbers.
Of course I am being selective! I am selecting the point about the Giants forgetting about the community game and saying that the poster provides no evidence! Despite requests no evidence has been forthcoming. The suggestion that everything is done at the zone is untrue.
I await his /her evidence.

You don't have to think! Or guess. Contact them and find out the schools they are going out to.
And the activity that does go on at the Zone (a facility most SL clubs would kill for) certainly shows that the community has not been forgotten...doesn't it?

As for the last point, you could have come up with a counter argument while we are waiting
