Feel better now do you?????

I was generalising on the comments as anyone with a brain could see so not surprised you missed it.
Of course you were generalising, and it was a stupid thing to do. Especially if you then call people out for being stupid because of it. Because nobody is actually saying that. So you can't call people stupid for it. Is that so hard to get?

Yeah they were and have done for pages and pages.

But hey don't let what others are saying get in the way of cracking at me again.

Some of the ideas out on here in the last few pages are being moronic and if I'd said them everyone wild have called me on it but hey that's life on this forum.

Some actually advocated getting Vickery and if that ain't stupid then I will give up.

Anyway don't respond I dont really care :) nite

Alright MD, keep missing the point, it's really my fault for getting sucked in. Don't play the victim though, that's nuts.

Not you are missing the point

I was called stupid for suggesting Witts, fair play i will cop that no problem.

I return serve to others and not directly name names as I didn't wish to offend some of the delicate petals on here and you come at me? Where were you when people called me stupid?

Again I don't care and I'm far from a victim I cop what I deserve just pointing out the hypocrisy. I have a crack I'm abusing and insulting people. People crack at me I deserve it ;)

Understand now

I just don't rate Collins on what I've seen and what I've been told.
Agree, I've heard similar from people in the know and it worries me. Far from convinced with him.

Not writing him off or anything like that but not as bullish about him as others seem to be.

I enjoy your posts and agree with much of what you have to say. But it's probably more pleasant if we could simply say we disagree, and maybe relax a little. We've all different opinions and as you'd no doubt freely acknowledge, sometimes I'm right - and the rest of the time you're wrong. ;)

As one of the 'stupid', I like Vickery as a potential FA at a good price. IMO he's an upgrade and replacement on the injured Red (for me that ain't a high bar). IMO RFC aren't picking Vickery because they they want to look at others and probably will let him go. Vickery also has three less reco's than Red.

But if Norf want to pay him $550k a yr they can have him.

Mate we go and get Hurley no matter the price.

Leaves us with Hurley Adams Morris Roberts Collins Hamling as KPB.

Then forward we use Boyd Rough Cordy and we need one more ruckman to help out. Hurley will allow us to move Suckers and Murphy forward also.

I don't like Vickery is actually prefer Griffiths if we talking Richmond.

Agree - I don't like Vickery much either - no one does - I imagine that when he was a kid, his mum would have had to tie snags around his neck to get the dog to play with him.

I like Griffiths as a player better too - but IMO he's probably unavailable, he'd cost valuable trade assets we don't have if we get Hurley, and also Griffiths seems to get injured a lot.

If it was a choice between Redpath, Z Clarke and Vickery - I'd take Vickery if he was cheap enough. Just my opinion though.

This should be bolded and framed. It's okay to be worried about a player being good enough, without others overreacting.

Thank you Mike!

I'm worried about certain traits in Collins' game, and I'm not convinced he makes it, but he's 18 and hope like hell he does. That ain't writing players off. FFS, the over reaction on here is priceless.
