Somehow, I don’t think Wigan winning Super League in 2018 played much of a part in South Sydney appointing Maguire in 2011.

No but being the Champions in 2010 having done nothing for years 100% did. You do remember that don't you? It was one of the 5 finals you lost in a row.

Well obviously seeing as though Maguire was the coach who won it. However, that isn’t relevant to club profile which is what the whole original point was about.

You're spot on about profile being such a decisive factor. Roosters appointed Trent Robinson because Catalans are a bigger club than Leeds, not because of his experience in the NRL before SL and relative success on SL thereafter.

Nobody has been sure of yours or your alter ego's point either for the last 19 pages, yet here you all are still.

What has that got to do with the Roosters appointing him?

Are you really this dumb? When I used the term 'such as' it was in the context of it being one of several statistics you claimed were directly comparable. It didn't offer any mitigation to your stance that they were/weren't directly comparible depending on which best suited your argument! Here, let explain context to you as you're clearly even more stupid than you first appear (doesn't seem possible, I know, but you keep providing the evidence)you'd used it, it would have meant that 'top try scorer' was one of a series of things needed to compare players from different teams (and, of course would have meant you were arguing against your own point). When I used it, it was to illustrate it was one of several instances where you'd claimed individual statistics were directly comparable. Can you see how, in context, they have the opposite meaning and therefore you can't quote my use as if it has the same meaning as had you used it.
Are we getting there yet or are you still finding the English language confusing?

Superleague champions 2010, Challenge Cup winners 2011.Maguire to Souths 2011. I know you struggle connecting the dots but come on! Or do you think Souths would have made a move for him had he taken us to relegation?
And I'm still awaiting your explanation as to how being superleague champions in 2010 and Challenge Cup winners 2011 was "winning something 50 years ago"? Or is this just another one of your moronic statements that you conveniently brush under the carpet and pretend you never said when you realise what a t!t you've made of yourself?

Dear me, I said the 2018 Super League season didn’t have any bearing on Souths appointing Maguire for obvious reasons. I wasn’t on about 2010 or 2011.

The league this season is basically-
Saints
Wire
The rest'"
No they aren't and the same cow shat you come out with on our forum.
It is what it is, which is little to chose at this point.
Saints got a rest into Warmsley and Thompson whilst Hill and Cooper were on empty durng the derby.
Wire employed a game of reserved attack and stretched our own defence.
1 team way out front and like you said...but that isn't current form...that's down to Saints trying to make every post a winning post like last season.
There one team with shed loads of improving still in them with what's been seen...and that isn't Saints.
The amount of improvement available with returning players ahead of the play offs in actually quite scary!

| Keep believing they’re not streets ahead of you but you’ll only be more disappointed when you’re sat at Wembley (or at home) or you’re sat at Old Trafford (or at home) and it’s them lifting the trophies.
I’ve watched both St Helens and Wire plenty of times this year, both against us, against other sides and against each other and they’re far too good for everyone. Just because they’re slightly less too good for Wire then say Hull, doesn’t mean a thing in the shake up.
Honest opinion but we’ll see.
