I've not bothered watching them yet so can't comment and remember they are only highlights.

Thank you for the input Mr Soprano, and appreciated.
And allthough much more reflective than a minority fan poll, I don't think highlights can show exactly what I said.
Take Wakefield away for instance. We we were down something like 28-16, with just over 10 minutes left, with many fans leaving the stadium after writing it off. We were completely been dominated, Wakefield were keeping us in our half, and we could not get out. We introduced Buderus off the bench at this time, and the whole momentum changed. Much faster passing out of dummy half, and some good needed metres, along with supporting two of the breaks. That influenced that result big time.
Do highlights show that?

No but 2 of those teams finished in the "top 4" rather than missing the playoffs like one of the supposed "big 4"

Do highlights show Wallet boy started the game and contributed to us being down in the first place?

As Buderus is reasonably unlikely to play against one of the big 4 while he is contracted to play for one of them, who replaces Leeds in the quartet?
Teams finishing 3rd and 4th at the end of the regular rounds would have a better claim than teams who finished outside the top 8 in 2009. Indeed all 4 of the opponents mentioned made last season's play-offs.

You said that win was down to Ganson not so long ago?

While G1's argument that the Buderus money could be better spent elsewhere hasn't changed, the claim he has offered us nothing looks slightly confusing considering his comment on page 2 of the above thread.
By the way, yes I am bored at work.

I said what?
I was arguing with the Wakefield fans that Ganson was ridiculously one sided to them, and intimated that had =#FF0040they(Wakfield) won, it would have been down to Ganson.

You also stated that the final 13 mins were no different to the preceding 67.

I know I did, and would say it again even now. Of course I am going to defend the side full stop against wakey fans, or any other set of oppossition fans. Doesn't mean that I can't give a truer account when discussing with our own fans.
I've also continually defended Bailey to oppossition fans over the years, and on a few occassions Diskin. It's a completely different context.

Leeds were not very good, I will give you that, but the last 13 minutes were no different in preformance to the first 67. The difference was Ganson thought he had done enough by that point, and relaxed, and Leeds got the win. He was diabolically one sided throughtout that first 67 minutes."[/i
That's what you said, two contradicting accounts.
But if your reason is that you lie to win arguments with Wakefield fans then I can accept that

Wakey fans, Cas fans, Wigan fans, the whole lot. It's not a lie its just playing on it. I have no problem in a Leeds fan critisizing Leeds or it's playes, but I sure would not have an oppossition fan doing it.
There was even a post on the VT in a thread last season from G1 arguing to oppossition fans about how Budures is the best hooker in the league, and only injuries had held him back so far. It's true no lie. Of course I have to accept that for the reasons that were behind it.

Yuo claim he was instrumental in those wins. Offer nothing but your opinion and a suggestion we watch the video. You dismiss the opinions polls of the best player as irrelevant. Tony offers links to match ihghl;ights and you dismiss those as not relevant.

We're talking Gotcha here.
So, let's summarise.
4 specified games where gotcha's opinion in that Buderus was key to our victory.
Not featuring in supporters polls as one of the 3 best players is to be ignored.
Watching the highlights is to be ignored.
Please ignore the fact that he contradicts himself in past threads because he was lying on those occasions, but not now obviously.
This has potential to be another Phil daly for you Gotcha.

Probably true but I hoped you were different. What with this revelation coming so soon after Damo's truely sickening, depraved image from yesterday all my heroes are self destructing.

Really? I dismissed it did I? you sure about that? because my post certainly doesn't read like that, and Tony didn't take it that way.
I said it quite clearly. Lets use another example shall we. You constantly tell all and sundry on here that you don't need stats to tell you whether somebody had a good game. Do we agree on this? Do you not say that stats do not show the game changing moments in a game, moments where a big tackle is made that takes momentum away, or even dropping the ball? Do we agree here.
Then please enlighten me, why do you think 10 minutes of highlights are going to show you anything other than you will see from a stats sheet? i.e. someone making meters, someone scoring, someone giving a try assist. You see Gareth it doesn't, what the highlights show you is people scoring.
Now lets be honest here, was that really what I said.

Basically, to summarise, any evidence anybody puts forward to show your opinion was nonsense is not reliable because it shows your opinion as being nonsense.

Without wanting to get dragged into this mini discussion too much, I agree that whilst teh highlights can give a bit more context to some stats, they will not always pick up either critical moments, or some form of pattern emerging. You tend to only get one or two plays before the try.
They are likely to miss a big hit which forces the ball out that allows a restart on halfway, or a quick play the ball which allows cheap meters to be made. With every action in a game having a consequence you'll never get a full picture from highlights, but they should generally give more info than stats, but are just as dangerous to soley rely on in a discussion.
I think its clear to say that as well as having an opinion on a player, and that is very subjective, different people could watch the game back again and see things completely differently anyway, based on emotion, player preference, skills preference.
As a player I consider my main strength my defence and stamina, so I think I rate the strong defence over long spells higher than a great step and break, wheras Gareth may appreciate big collissions and toughness as skills and rate a rampaging run or quick play the ball as higher. And emotion can play the biggest part in the interpretation of it. Someone in the thick of the crowd may see someone who puts in one or two huge hits that get the crowd going, and rate that as a key contribution, others may see games on Sky+ after knowing the result, and be more analytical in their viewing, and whilst approving of the big hits, may be less caught up in the action, and notice the guy who dominates the tackle over and over again, in the process of slowing the play the ball down, and allowing the defense to set.
For these reasons I enjoy good debates on Southstander. Everyone has opinions, and these are based on certain things, which is why I will not always agree with someones opinion, but if they can articulate the reasons why, and demonstrate a good understanding of the game I will at least respect it, other peoples opinions are worth less respect as they are never based on any sort of analysis.

Agree entirely with all that Leicester.
But somebody seems to want to use things when he wants them, and dismisses the same things when it doesn't help them.
Then top it off by making inaccurate statements of what is said.
