You at it again? Yet another post of yours which is just a critique of other people's opinion. HAVE YOU EVER POSTED YOUR THOUGHTSON AN ACTUAL GAME, other than have a pop (again) on a poster's thoughts on said game? Probably not

FYI, it's not a cheap post, it's my opinion on a (imo) bone idle waste of space. To extend his contract, was one of the club's worst decisions in decades. A 1% increase on the similarly idle Danny Lima.

Without wasting my time going onto an Opta stat website, I can guess Akauola's "input" to Sunday's game, or the majority of his appearances. Not a joke, comparing him to a sloth, more so a decent analogy



re.ACTUAL GAME BIT
I tend not to post during a game and am amazed that so many do. Why not watch the game? It seems daft to post during a game.
I reckon you learn so much by actually watching the game as well (of course) by playing it. I reckon I often post thoughts about actual games after the event. But I am not keen on cheap shots at players

BTW Nothing wrong with opinion but why throw insults.

I'm guessing that your answer is no. It does help to understand the game if you've passed or kicked a ball or lined up in defence and made the odd tackle. I have never done any mountaineering therefore I tend to be careful on offering advice on climbing.

So by your logic, you cannot appreciate a good musician if you do not play the instrument, you have no right to an opinion on an actor unless you are one. You must be so indifferent to most of life.

Please do not get tangled up in climbing mountains and music. This is about abuse of rugby players.
You know what I am saying. I have no problems with people having an opinion on the game whether they have played or not. But ... I do not like people insulting players. So in this example calling someone a "sloth" is not on ... hence my comments.

I will ask again have you played the game?... try it ... it might give you a better insight and more sympathy.


I've played the game. I've played it at a fairly decent standard too. Does this mean you will allow me to post that Sita makes Astotasi look like prime Adrian Morely?

Because he does... That's how bad Sita is.


Anyway, back on topic...

Clark is a big loss but it does give him a rest and gives Walker a big chance. Walker has shown in recent weeks that he's banging on the door and ready to take a big step up (He already has done at some points). His Try on Wednesday night looked like Clark when he first came on the scene. Absolute quality :CLAP:

Hughes I'm not even remotely @rsed about. He gets through a lot of work in D I'll grant you but going forward he's woeful. Any attacking fluidity we have completely shuts down when he gets the ball. glad he's stood down and gives another young lad (Longstaff) chance to step up again.

Come off it , you more than suggested that unless you played the game you don't really know what you are talking about. I suggest you limit your time on here if you don't like seeing players criticised, describing a player as a sloth is hardly outrageous. Anyway what's wrong with sloths?

I'd give Nicko and Paul Cullen's thoughts a bit more weight than many.
If I was still playing I would not enjoy being called a sloth. Sloths are hardly mentioned (I cannot remember the last time I slipped it into conversation) it has been selected for effect. If you played would you like it?

Sorry I missed "Ladies Please" as I was writing. I understand it is going on a bit.

Neither glass half full or empty. Just a realist.

Wow.
Calling a player a sloth is now deemed as abuse. Maybe you've been paying a little too much attention to the "be kind/me too" movements of the last few years, to be so easily offended.
As a match fee/season ticket holder for umpteen years, I'd almost class myself as a shareholder in the club. I've put enough money into the club, therefore deserving an opinion on player's performances, good or bad. God knows, I've heaped enough praise onto teams/players, during this time.

Maybe you should take some cotton wool to games, in future, and make a note of people's opinions you don't like on here, and press the ignore button. Other than that, I can't see me or a few others reverting to Terry-Thomas style "insults" such as cad, bounder and shower, any time soon
