But Marmion didn't kick the ball once verses Wales. :D
Ah jaysus I was putting that last effort by sexton on Marmion. :mrgreen:
Yet you were basing your tactical plan upon it. Or are you saying that Sexton's kicking "shouldn't be used as often because the return risk was much". Please clarify.

Classy, take the worst possible meaning to casual banter.

I can only surmise that you very dishonestly reached out to me in the first place. You also have me mixed up with someone else as all the remarks you want to attribute to me appear to belong in your overactive imagination.


Either that or you're gallantly white knighting M1 - believe me he needs it not. There's a man able to back his argument without descending to pure fiction and fantasy.

As I say you are bias.

Now this post is an insult too far imo. The use of the word cretin in this context is an obvious insult and one that shouldn't be taken lightly.

I doubt an action will be taken, with regard to discipline on this forum, but an apology should definitely be offered.

Regardless of how worked up you get. Words like this should definitely be avoided, and definitely frowned upon.

The words primary use as defined by dictionaries is as follows.

cretin
ˈkrɛtɪn/Submit
noun
noun: cretin; plural noun: cretins
1.
informaloffensive
a stupid person (used as a general term of abuse).

It's rather obvious that is what oss means.

Can you and the rest of your gang of trolls quit with the libel.

Nobody believes you.

To have any credibility on this you would know the correct terms to use, and believe me *** Edited by mod *** is not one of them.

I am not surprised that you have reverted to dishing out abusive comments and agreeing with OSS.
But I am surprised the OSS sees no issue with using a word such as cretin. It is a word that would hit home to many, and one that has no place on here.

Many words have many meanings, and no meaning behind cretin has a place on here. But it becomes a big issue when you do not have access to the tone in which it is used.

Thought it was Marmion that attempted the kick over the top. It was a shite kick, ergo the kicker was pretty sh!t at kicking from hand.

Why does everyone have to explain themselves to 3 or 4 posters now? I enjoy most of the input from our provincial rivals on this discussion and opinion forum, but the attempt to undermine the posters who enjoy using the forum has gotten really aggressive and makes this a less than fun place to visit. Hands up though, I was cribbing on Marmion because I don't think kicking is one of his better facets and using that one kick to further my agenda or opinion.

Very true, Jack obviously didn't read the memo carefully enough. Had a great game mind you.
