I would sign every member of his family if it means hanging on to him

LOL!!!
You made an antagonistic statement looking for a fight, got called out on it, doubled down on your opinion, got called out on it a second time, lied about making it and have now thrown your toys out of the cot because you know you’ve been bettered.
Typical chauvinistic behaviour…**Everything I’ve been told about you is true.**

You have been here 8 days....and "everything I've been told about you is true". Just what this forum needs, another outside antagonist.

Why are you now on the attack when you agreed with me earlier?

First of all....."on the attack?".

Secondly, what did I agree with you about before (I neglected to keep a ledger of what you and I agree on) and how does that preclude me from disagreeing with you on a separate point?

It’s on the same topic.
Do you just post things without reading them first?

If it is the same topic, then you are the one with the comprehension issue. If the "topic" is you telling GNR that he is making a fool of himself....you and I do not and will not agree.

No about Stefs brother. Why are you jumping in on this when you don’t understand what the argument is about?
Do you see me as an easy target perhaps?

I didnt jump in on anything, I dont see you as a target, easy or otherwise.

I made a simple point that someone disagreeing with you doesnt make them "making a fool of themself" and this place would be better without that stuff. Your quip about "everything I have been told about you is true" is a childish cheap shot IMO. You do you.

If you are getting bent out of shape over such a vicious attack, I cant help you.

Yes PJ, the point I was making was you have to use every possible advantage you can when you are up against clubs who will do the same but on a grander scale. It is stupid recruitment management not to.

Agree 100%

Cut the rubbish

I am pumped that we are moving positively to lock down this talented young man.
He has a brother doesn’t he? Let’s do something for him.

I’d hope we wouldn’t sign his brother just because he’s Stefano’s brother.

Why not?

It doesn’t need explaining.

Well sorry to say, that’s a loser mentality if ever I have heard one.

What is? Why would you sign someone just cos their brother is a good player? Is that all we’re going off?

Where did I say sign him? Please understand what you are reading before making a fool of yourself.

Lets all ratchet this stuff back a bit? No one is "making a fool of themself". He is just expressing his opinion.

Oh he made a fool of himself.
It’s all good though.

You must lead a very quiet safe, sheltered life and that is making a fool of yourself.

Why the personal attacks?
I only expressed an opinion.

Are you serious? You cant have that little self awareness.

I didnt make a personal attack. I merely pointed out that by YOU saying GNR was making a fool of himself you are indeed making a personal attack on him that is unwarranted. He WAS just expressing and opinion.

I merely made the observation that it is unnecessary and IMO this place would be a lot better off without it.

Don’t talk down to me please. My opinion is valid and you agreed with it.

Your opinion that it would be worth considering signing Stef's brother is valid and I did agree with it. It would be valid if I didnt agree with it.

GNR's opinion that it would NOT be worth considering.....is also valid, whether you and I agree with it or not....see how it works?

You telling GNR he is making a fool of himself for the mere action of not agreeing with you, is NOT valid and that is what I have been discussing with you for the past posts.

Do you enjoy trying to be the big man talking down to me?
That guy did not discuss anything, he did not state his opinion. He just tried to ridicule mine.
Your take on the matter is incorrect and you are thoroughly boring me. I’m done speaking on this with you.

That is good because this conversation is over and any further posts will be removed.

Whoops I said the bad word

Swearing is against forum rules - if members want to swear, find an alternate forum to do it on thanks.

Right on cue.
Same double standards. Bans for some and others can do what they like.
We just want to come here and talk footy not have some take it like we're taking food of the table.
Ppl are entitled to negativity because we all support the tigers but fair go.

latrell's brother had a contract at the roosters and souths didn't he? at the same time as Latrell... go figure a 150kg prop... seems like a signing that those clubs would make if he wasn't someones brother.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Now that all that rubbish is done with, I’ll try and explain my stance. I don’t think it’s smart at all to sign his brother for the fact that it’s his brother, and somehow that means he’ll be as good because of it. Now, if it’s political and you want to bring him here as a carrot to keep Stefano, while I don’t agree with that, it does have some logic if I’m being honest. I think it sends the wrong message though, and has the potential to soften Stefano up, like he needs to pampered. What if it makes him him want more proviso’s during his next contract negotiation? I don’t think the club would entertain signing him anyway, and I would like to believe that Stefano won’t be swayed either way as a result. Sounds like a deal will be done though. Stefano and Papali’i before Xmas would be one hell of a present from Santa.

Squawker? - now thats a personal attack, when one of you is banned.

There's no double standards PJ - you continually make posts containing swearing because you like to and have no respect for the rules - 7 days off and you come back and still think it's ok to swear - it's not. People are entitled to negativity, however that negativity does not give free passage to swearing.

I'll cop the swearing bans, no problem, that's on me no matter how trivial I think it is.
My problem is with dickheads like old mate below who antagonise for the sake of it. That's what's driving ppl away.
You need to sort that out as a mod.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's the certain few that jump in and it inflames the situation.

You are right, Ill stay out of it and leave you to cry and complain when other people are banned, thats what people want in the threads.

Didn't cry when you got ur 3 days.
Seems you were the one crying about that🤔
