John Bateman #268

Api has been somewhat ineffective this year because he is being targetted in defence and the coaches are not giving him a breather due to this extra workload he is being saddled with. The bloke is attempting over 50 tackles every week when his strength is his attack.
Yep, the same thing was happening to Brooks, doesn’t matter how deep he got.
 
Now you are just telling flat out lies because he gave away a penalty by stripping the ball on the weekend & gifting Souths 2 points & he also gave away a six again on the 4th tackle which led to Souths scoring.
I am not telling any lies, thats your domain.
Where did you get that information from? I had a look back through NRL.com and theres no record of it.

LOl its in black and white. Keep sulking though.....

It's in black and white yet you can't point it out hahahaha.
I have never said Bateman has given away more penalties then everyone else, ive said the nature of them being so blatant is demoralising for the team and are often late in the tackle proving costly. That's a big difference. You chose to take me out of context just to be a troll.

Oh whatever, weve all seen you crying on here like a tantrum throwing toddler claiming he is the worst player in the team etc etc etc.

Actually, I've said he is the worst player in the team all things considered. And I have even pointed out those things to consider.

By the way, you claim I've lead a campaign against him, yep I have. I don't deny that for a second and I'm proud of it. As an international vice captian leader, he has been abysmal. You also seem to think I have had some sort of influence on what's happened or what other formers think haha, I wish.

You havent answered my question. Did I miss something on the weekend? Its not on NRL.com, nor Zero Tackle. You have called me a liar, it is your character on show currently unless you can prove that.
Did you watch the game? If you did you'd see that I'm not the one telling fibs mate.

LOL thou doth protect too much.
You know you are wrong. Just drop it please, its getting embarrassing.
 
I did watch the game but lost interest at stages, I may have missed something. Please show me when those instances occurred. If you cant, Ill be awaiting my appology
there's clear video of him raking at the ball & giving away a penalty right infront which earns Souths an extra two points.
 
We can agree on that, it is getting embarrassing isn't it.
I merely shared some interesting stats, that provided a different story to what has been said on here all week. I originally didnt name you, shame you or indicate anything about you.
You have done all that yourself.
Instead of using anything to back your stance up, you went on the attack.
I couldnt have planned it better if I tried LMFAO

I think I found it. 3 minutes into the second half.
The commentators said it was Tallyn da Silva who raked the ball, the video ref said it was Bateman. It has been recorded as a penalty against Da Silva. They both had hands on the ball. I went off the infringement report. Therefore not a lie.
 
Yes that is the general consensus isnt it?
I suggest it is a narrative being pushed by certain posters that evryone is just believing to be true.
The fact is, in his past 5 games for us, he has not given away 1 penalty or ruck infringement. Not 1.
He has only given away 6 penalties and 2 ruck infringements all year!
Does the stripping penalty last week not count?
