I think a few of us can quite smugly say "we told you so"

Not sure if I posted on this thread originally, but I have to admit that at the time I didn't rate him. At all.

You can add this to my Phelps confession then. I was wrong about Roberts too.

Clearly though it was all BN's fault because they're both great players now!

Wouldn't you agree BK?

Yes If I was only on about tries scored. Ainy's metres per carry were lower with him being a finisher but this doesn't explain clean breaks and the like. In several games Ainy was bouncing players off him as if he were a second rower hence his Busts were so high, nothing to do with left or right wing, Amos has been great at this this season but didn't last season when he had the ball and on what other grounds can you compare the two players (as in your assertion that Amos was better than Ainy) other than by things such as clean breaks and busts?? I'm genuinely interested to know bud because if I'm guilty of comparing apples with oranges then surely so are you?

Anyway, Shaun got injured and Amos is storming this year and rightfully keeping Ainy out so it doesn't really matter I suppose, but I will stick to the fact that his performances this year cannot be used as justification for keeping him in last year because at the end of the day we kept him in the team last season and won absolutely nothing. So in effect if we wanted we could be the smug ones (getting bored of my own argument)

No idea what happened here.



Yo! My man.

End of subject now for me. Man hug, by the way.


This is what I put.

at the cup semi last year, i was sat infront of a scouse women who obviously was very passionate about wigan. But her hatered to amos last year was so over the top that all of us around her we're pleading for him to have a blinder! unfortunately it didn't happen. She shouted every expletive i could think of at him, some completely uncalled for, eventually us around here had enough and told her to shut up.

But i am begging to find her at an away match soon just so i can hear her opinion of him now! I'm even more over joyed with his turn around just because of her.

If half of you were as good at playing the stock market as you claim to be judging RL talent, then you would all be driving Porsches....

Look, last year Roberts was gash.

In his THREE performances this season, I am delighted to say that he has impressed.

However, using that same logic Pat Roberts is a cr&p goalkicker.


Very happy to stand by my posts then as I do now.

So you still think he brings nothing to the team and is gash? Very bold statement BK (and completely wrong I might add!)

Sometimes I wonder if you actually read posts or just spout nonsense........


I have said that he has impressed this season (which he has)

I said that last year he was gash (which he was)


Not that difficult to grasp is it?

Brett, repeating the same opinion over and over again doesn't make you correct, he wasn't gash last season and he's not gash this season. Take it like a man like Deano G has done. Or at least edit the bloody thing and start saying he was gash (in your opinion) then we can just ignore it.

As it is not difficult to spot talent even if they aren't neccessarily playing to potential. Strangely, you are singularly incapable of doing so. Still, at least you make up for it with the intransigence of your opinions. To paraphrase: Those who shout loudest know the least....
