Re: The big Dugan discussion
It was pretty clear to me that it was a false statement, with the sole intention to be sarcastic about the Dugan issue. And I sincerely don't understand what being a statement or how English language has to do with the definition of sarcasm...
If you say you're Microsoft's CEO, I will answer "Sure, and I am the tooth fairy", which is an obviously false statement with a clear intention to sarcastically tell you that you're full of shit.
WTF? Hayseed is a rookie with 22 posts. He hasn't done anything wrong, but he's far from "loved" by everyone here.

Re: The big Dugan discussion
But how is it a false statement, he gave nothing to indicate it was false. He gave street names, quoted it what was said and then finished by saying "yeah he will fit right in in brisbane. He was making a statement to try and prove his point we shouldnt be going after dugan. What I said was I believe he is lying. But you guys have made up your mind, obviously it was sacasm and I missed the joke

Now get your butt in gear and name your SVRL team! :001_tt2:
I guess it's all a matter of interpretation, and in this case the fact that the statement was so obviously false is the reason I called it sarcasm. Oh well, each to his own...

Re: The big Dugan discussion
This thread is about Josh Dugan maybe joining the Broncos. I don't want to read any more shit which is completely irrelevant to the topic. First and final warning.

Re: The big Dugan discussion
WE'RE NOT PLAYING FRIDAY!?!?!?!?!
Anyway, I still have my reservations about Dugan but if he turned down a better offer from the Dragons to sign with us then I'd pretty happy. Nothing wrong with recruiting a star player to fill a need, can't always breed them. As long as we don't go down to the road of the Doggies and sign every player on the market.

Re: The big Dugan discussion
Kimmorley said in NRL 360 that Dugan missed training in the week leading up to his debut.
Which raised 2 questions
1. How far up himself is this guy and
2. How did it take the Raiders so long to start sorting him, I mean if I'm the coach and he misses training the first time he gets picked for NRL you pretty much know you have a problem to sort out
