I disagree. There has been a vast improvement in the behaviour of at least 3 people I know (I'm including you in that tooOriginally posted by Bates View Post
lol he's been banned 5 times for a reason and he's already started rubbing people up the wrong way.

Rubbing someone up the wrong way is not in breach of forum rules either by the way. If that was the case, there'd be no-one left as we can't all get along with one another despite following the most magnificent team in the country..
However, stalking, spreading lies and misinformation and mocking mental health of others is. I even had to request my old account be banned voluntarily as you know as well as I do what happened on a surface level but not one of you know what the ramifications were behind the scenes.
Use the block function as that's what it's there for. For those jumping up and down saying that in itself is a form of bullying, no it's not. That only applies to a school, work or sporting team environment where you are excluding someone by ignoring them or refusing to interact with them. Chris has done the right thing legally by providing a 'block' function on the site. I should know as I do this stuff for a living. The ones complaining about being blocked don't even hold down actual jobs, let alone ones IT or Compliance related.
I do believe you are a good judge of character Bates. Don't make me be wrong as normally that never happens...
As you were people..
Now this thread is about Angus leaving and I do believe he will be wanting to give the club his all this season..after all, his business roots are here on our beautiful beach. So I guess going across the road for the team photo shoot was his WFH gig as his barbershop is down the road. How good is that?

I have had many goes at King in the past but his latest reincarnation has done nothing wrong.Originally posted by Bates View Post

Block him if his presence pisses you off.
Otherwise grow a pair and stick to the topic at hand ffs. No need to comment every time he makes a post. It just derails threads just like you have this one.
I'm done.

As annoying as it is we just have to get used to it and it may get worse not betterOriginally posted by kakaruk View PostWe are becoming the feeder club for the wallabies and it pisses me off
we feed from rugby junior ranks as well so we will win some and loose some
Manu was more a change after getting bored
Marky m came from rugby and the wallabies
Critchon wanted a rugby contract but was told to wait a few years and develop in club rugby so he chose $300k straight out of school from Souths and hasn’t looked back but allways mentioned he wanted to go back eventually
Suaali played both but couldn’t turn down the Aus rug deal
we could easily loose more, toia, Billy smith, savala, Wong, steep who could get linked to going backLast edited by Chook2; 01-25-2026, 02:33 PM.

Dozens of young Union players are switching to League for a contract that pays better...reportedly.Originally posted by Chook2 View Post

RL stars go to RU, and are "never" "heard of" again. When was the last time the Wallabies won anything?
RU seems like a much easier game for backs...stand around for much of the 'stop-start' game, get paid a lot.
At least Manu gave us a decade.

A polite reminder you have been asked on numerous times now by Red not to do this without naming names as it casts aspersions on the entire site. Yet you continue to do so.Originally posted by Duchess_of_Bondi View Post

I respect all our moderators here. Past present and even future. Always have done and always will do a wonderful job.

If so, let him go early.Originally posted by SamKerrSimp View PostGood riddance as far as I am concerned he's never shown consistency worthy of his hype and pay cheque ever since we signed him save for a few purple patches that usually coincided with him being off contract. He got his contract renewal at the end of 2024 and shit the bed in a major way in the finals against the top teams that'll be my lasting memory of him.
Marky Mark might not down tools and pike it all year like Manu did but Crichton sure will.
