It's weird you mentioning Carrigan's tackling efficiency! I mean, it's not really relevant right? The stats only matter when they suit, right? Like, Kennedy having a better tackling efficiency than James, averaging over 80metres a game to James's terrible 53. In fact RK's efficiency shits on...

We should be honest here, we've seen Carrigan miss more often. Hell, most of the forwards miss more often!

You mean Walters? Yes, Joliffe pushed off RK but where was Walters? Sure, RK could have done better but it's not all on him. Also, the try shouldn't have been awarded.

No, James missed important tackles that indirectly led to tries.

Yeah, thought was pretty average too. I hear ya. RK beat him in every department , again! Still, it's great we can carry dead weight like James.

? Huh ? RK was okay ! Had better metres, made more tackles, had less missed tackles, had more tackle busts than James...and still out-performed him in every department in less minutes.

Absolutely he could cover the role but I think others have a much better understanding of him so I'd listen to them.

I changed my position on Carrigan with regard to his best position. These days roles have changed a bit and you were right, Carrigan is a front rower. I'll say I did think he was/is a talented player and I thought he was better suited further back but he looks good anywhere in the forwards.

What is a spose? Or rather who is he/she? You mention Spose defending Mitchell in your last line?

Nah, he was very average. 74 metres in 40 minutes, nah, shit.

We were missing a battalion of forwards but we still ran for 100 metres more with exactly the same number of possessions. We did miss our big guys though. Love to see Jensen back too just as long as it's at James's expense 😀

We will win but nothing worthwhile comes easily and KW knows this. Expect a very committed and resolute team to turn up and a solid win I reckon. Our recent history with the Titans would suggest we are aware of the strength of the threat and our coaching team will make things crystal clear.

I wrote there's evidence about your personal feelings not a description of your feelings. There's evidence ( based on the assumption posters are being honest when writing) of everyone's personal feelings in their expressed opinions.

Mmm, there isn't a question mark in most people's minds I believe. I think most people understand the difference in the drug types. It's way more likely that the distinction between performance enhancing drugs and party drug/dull the pain, mellow out drugs is well understood and accepted by...

Doubts aren't evidence but you are sort of claiming John's couldn't have achieved as he did without the 'benefits' of recreational drug use. Yes, drugs can and are used recreationally by tens of millions worldwide and most function as per expectation. There's no evidence one way or the other...

I don't know either. I mean, I don't know anyone who is defending his drug taking. I think people should mind their own fucking business and concern themselves with how they themselves deal with their own problems. If John's dealt with things his way and his drug use wasn't performance enhancing...

Oh, you mean he had the 'advantage' of a frontrower's shoulder to his face? Right. I mean, he's been smashed and THEN produces a great performance. It's even worth more praise when you consider the prior attack on his head. Tough stuff that. You're right, RK was definitely better.

I don't really care if John's was petulant because he simply showed us how much it still hurts, getting beaten by a qld team that just isn't really as high a quality a team as the opposition yet frustratingly keeps finding a way to win. It's theatre and adds to it all.

Shows you how incredibly talented he must have been. Like, no one can become the best in their field AND be drug fucked, not over three decades as you claim. Right? I mean, sure drugs can help for a short period but being at the very top over a long period, nah, nobody does that on drugs. If...

Hosking was being led in the forwards by his senior forward ON FIELD at the time. Hosking was the most junior at all times and was led by more experienced forwards at all times. RK led from the front when he was most senior. Mod edit: Removed insults.
