Diplomacy at its finest. Answer the question without answering the question. I know exactly as much now as I knew before I read that.

Drinkwater had a Toa night last night. Stood and watched at least one try scorer run past and was very badly positioned for others

I seriously wont mind if he hogs it and goes himself, once. Get the opposition thinking, same old ball hog Douehi, then start delivering nice short balls, long cut out passes and grubbers into the in goal. At least in my imagination.

They'll rest most of their top players against us. training run for roosters ressies.

Im going to watch. I want to see Douehi put on a 7 exhibition, demonstrating all his skills to take us to a victory over a team with a qualified 7. He has to direct the team and carry the clutch plays, and pass the ball at least once. Loving being out there with the boys isnt good enough any...

The wise man in my narrative was another farm hand like me, but a bit older with more life experience. Dont say sorry unless you draw blood, then just run. It means this. Actions speak louder than louder than words. Take care with what you’re doing so no-one gets hurt by your actions. Little...

This!

I think you're reading more into it than necessary. I abbreviated it so it didnt go on. It was a simple message to take more care or people will get hurt. But you're entitled to your interpretation.

The winning formula.

A wise man once said to me, when we were baling hay; You dont need to apologise unless you draw blood, then just run. I took that as, take care and dont stuff up in the first place.

As the 7, he has to lead them to a win.

Ive been thinking about the notion that Marshall plays favourites. Personally, I think that its natural and not a problem as long as it falls within agreed performance standards. It comes with the territory when leading a group of people, all of whom are individuals with their own quirks. You...

Probly right

Who, what, when, where?

My perspective on Douehi getting booed on the weekend. We've been slamming him for walking out on his team mates against Canberra, an individual act, not a team players act. He has now, for whatever reason, been included in the team again to go out and beat the Eels. Like it or not he'll be...

I dont like it any more than you do, but booing the team is poor form.

Shouldnt be. The coach has made the team call. Douehi is in the team at 7. If you boo Douehi, you boo the team.

Wont happen! Big neon sign up says dont bother coming here. No standards, no guts, no drive.

Disappointed is the most diplomatic term I can muster at this point. Douehi and Moses have played Marshall like a fiddle and he has capitulated. I feel sorry for the rest of the squad who have to put up with this tripe. Thus ends season 2026.

Why not? He earned it.
