| You'll have to highlight this one for me.
Pretty much every scrum these days results in a forward taking the ball up as first receiver.
I'd much rather see a tap and get on with it, much better innovation than this double try crap

What in League?
Are you sure you want to think about that again.

| nahh man you're okay.
Dunno about over there but in the UK there's never 6 forwards in the scrum, very very rare.
Might be different in aus but have a think, work it out, get back to me

Sounds different from here then.
The first receiver generally is a back.

| In the uk there's an obsession with replacing backrowers with your full back or other small bloke. Then getting your second rower to take the first drive.
It makes sense to a point, especially in defence
Not seen many moves off scrums for a while

Well I'm convinced.
Let's introduce a dozen re-sets per scrum so the union trolls feel better...

| I'd rather have a tap or turnover tbh, quicker and keeps the action flowing. Maybe have a 'scrum' for touch but for forward passes or knock ons i'd rather see a quicker restart

| Bump.
One of the all-time great thrashings of rah rah posters.
Things to look out for in this thread:-
1. The quality of the Welsh backline.
2. Jim Lisle and 1962.
3. 8 Guinness Premiership & 4 Home Nation coaches versus 1 (being generous with the 1).
4. The names of many (since exposed) union trolls - nickcat (also known as alfie's thumb) as one example.
So how is the "union expert" at Warrington going, dickless?
Still employed?

| Gijou bumped this thread so I could "learn something"
Very informative
Quote ="Gijou"I don't need to research. It is all in my head.
I bumped a thread for you to absorb some of my knowledge.
Get reading. Doubtless you will learn something.
'"
Many thanks for bumping the thread........here's my thoughts on your definition of "learn something"
Well....your first post was hyper-intelligent. I am sure you had the Union lot running to for the hills with this little gem.
Quote ="Gijou"Because it is a miserable wretch of a game?'"
Followed quickly by this absolute stunner. Must say....page 2 and the factual stuff from you is outstanding.
Quote ="Gijou"90210 or whatever he is called needs to get several clues...
And quickly.'"
Page 4 brings us a reference to facts....but no facts themselves...
Quote ="Gijou"Wrong.
In fact, the history of these types of games shows only one code is capable of winning in the other's sport.Have a guess which one?'"
Followed by the first sign of the chip you have on your shoulder....and not very factual either.
Quote ="Gijou"3 suburbs is overly generous...
10 schools is more apt.'"
Then, after a few more quips, but still not one fact you state...
Quote ="Gijou"Most of that is mere opinion. Not a fact to be seen here. Move on...'" .......oh the Irony
Now, I have scanned through the other 10 or so pages of this in the mistaken belief that I was going to learn something new.........and mores the fool me for thinking I would. Everything, apart from maybe reference to war-time international games is IN YOUR OPINION. You really should learn that it’s OK to have an opinion......they are like @rseholes in that we all have one. The problem is you get your opinion confused with FACT.
HTH

| He's going FANTASTIC.
Wire are 2nd in the league (finished 10th last year) and look fitter, much more powerful and quicker.
Job well done I say.

| I can't be bothered arguing with all that toss, and it is.
There is zilch proof anywhere, never will be because it's two different sports.
None of you talk sense and so most have just given up and laugh at your inferiority complex.

HTH'"
Despite the fact I even gave you what to look for, you still couldn't find it...
1. Jim Lisle. Now you have heard of him.
2. 8 GP/4 HN RL coaches.
You didn't know that clearly.
You aren't the sharpest tool in the shed are you.
Those are called "FACTS".
And they bury your pathetic argument, rah rah.
Bye bye.

This thread must be highly embarrassing for you.
To see your ar se handed to you so many times in one place.
Funny, funny stuff.

| I'm guessing you guys aren't very highly educated?
Left high school with average grades and never went on to do a lot else?
Gijou COULD be an old man who remembers 'the good old days' yet chooses to hang around with kids, strikes me as that type. Not far off the mark am I.

Yeah you are close.
I am 36 with 3 university degrees.
Looks like my guess that you are a union troll is far more accurate than yours.
Mong squared.

I haven't been "at school" for 12 years.
I am working now.
Isn't it time you learned to be a better troll?
You and dickless both look like rah rah trolls the longer this goes on...

I must say......the facts are flying now. 3 degrees, your 36 and you haven't been at school for 12 years.....jesus, there's more factual information on this one page from you than in all of your previous threads/post.
When will it sink in professor? I am not a troll and absolutely not a union troll.
Oh...and "dickless"......classy post...really classy. Bet your dissertations are cracking reads

Can I help it if the man lacks a dick?
BTW, for those who came in late, the salient facts in this thread burying the rah rahs are:-
"Things to look out for in this thread:-
1. The quality of the Welsh backline.
2. Jim Lisle and 1962.
3. 8 Guinness Premiership & 4 Home Nation coaches versus 1 (being generous with the 1).
4. The names of many (since exposed) union trolls - nickcat (also known as alfie's thumb) as one example."
For the gutterfax troll, points 2 and 3 are what we (the educated) call "facts".
