Thankfully we still have Leeds, the most upstanding, gentlemanly club in the history of organised sports ...
Didnt a judge once say of two Leeds players "Each of you brought disgrace on the game of rugby league, on your clubs and most of all on yourselves" ... I guess our reputation is about as low as that ... |

I have to cover them all up in the morning so I can go to work instead of staring at myself all day. It's a genuine problem and I'd appreciate a little sensitivity about it if you don't mind.'"
No problem Mr. Wellens. With an issue that big, you deserve some space to get yourself right.
Good luck. |

| Quote: Northampton_Saint "Let's play hypotheticals - let's say Saints go into the game on Saturday with Walsh, Lomax and Wilkin all fit, while Wigan go in with Smith, O'Loughlin and Bowen all injured with whoever playing in their place instead. And then let's say 2 minutes into the game Amor gets sent off for taking Green permanently out of the game with a ehouse cheapshot. Questiondo Wigan have any chance of winning?[/i Of [icourse[/i not - you'd have gotten mullered, man advantage or otherwise. So less of the "best team lost" cobblers and playing the "if" game that some of you are indulging yourselves in if you please.
Saints overcame frightening odds to win an unbelievable and incredibly unlikely backs-to-the-wall victory no matter what kind of gloss or amelioration you want to put on it. We suffered from infinitely way more adversity both before and during the game than you did. We were bitty and scrappy and lacked organisation and composure during the game but should have been a whole lot worse off under the circumstances. And we still won anyway.'"
Glad we've got that sorted. As it goes I think we'd have mullered you with a man advantage no matter who the personel. Haven't you lot been telling us all season that it doesn't seem to matter who wears the jerseys as our systems ensure we play exactly the same way? Without the three players you mentioned we'd have had Bateman to start and probably Scott Taylor on the bench and probably Hampshire to replace Bowen (many would say that was an improvement anyway!) By the way, just to keep the analogy even, McIlorum would have been playing too. So that's Taylor, Hamphire, McIlorum and 1 other player (Goulding or another forward) in and O'loughlin, Bowen and Smith out. With a man advantage for practically the full game that side would have caned you! |

If seeing your pack getting smashed to bits by 2 19 year olds is "playing amazing" then yep, you're right.

Surprisingly enough I'm not Mr. Wellens but just one of thousands and thousands of other outstandingly attractive and charismatic Sintelliners. I appreciate that there being so many of us can easily confuse someone coming from a town exclusively populated by deformed mutants, so I'll let you off this time. No need to thank me. |

Are you seriously that simple? There was the personnel that took the field and you offered an alternative. I answered that if we had the man advantage we would win whichever personnel you chose and went on to explain why. Sorry if you couldn't understand. I didn't realise I was replying to a simpleton. Next time I'll take into consideration your obvious stupidity and answer in words of one syllable wherever possible. Well done on your gibberish above by the way. Here's a radical thought; Why don't you explain why the alternative team I offered wouldn't beat a 12 man Saints? Or would that actually require a degree of reasoning that's beyond you? Wouldn't want to tax your tiny brain too much now, would we? 
Edit: Actually, don't bother. I've just read the rest of your posts....

| Quote: Northampton_Saint "*sigh*... Here we go again... We had no halves left on the pitch... We had a prop at centre, a SR at #6 etc. etc. of course we were fragmented and disorganised and one-dimensional and scrappy... But we still almost entirely snuffed out your vaunted and full-strength backline with our cobbled-together ad-hoc line. And our forwards (with one less man in the rotation let's not forget, largely cancelling out our on-field man advantage) had by far the better of the game. It weren't pretty, but it's what we had to do to survive in extreme adversity, and ultimately you just couldn't find a counter it.
You're right - we'll never really know if wed've won 13v13. You think we wouldn't, I think we would. But the best team won on the night - that can't be contested. And if you [ireally[/i want to wail over the hypotheticals, wed've stomped you into powder 13v13 with our absentees present anyway. So there. ![]()
I didn't realise I was wailing over anything, but if you see it that way there is not a lot I can do about it.
Who's to say that, had you had all your halves available, your daft coach wouldn't have played two of them at prop, and one of them on the wing? The injuries just served to disguise his predilection towards baffling positional anomalies.

Has anyone seen the Wigan pack since saturday? Just wondering if Richards and Thompson had let them out of their pockets yet?
