I hate Tesi with a passion
People don’t like reading that can do exactly what you suggested.
I am sure he's a big fan of you too.

Yea if that’s your thinking then you have correctly identified where our difference of opinion lies.I think our difference of opinion comes from me thinking Tesi has some elite talent
You should be ashamed of yourself. How can you hate one of your own players?.
Best you go and support the Dolphins.
This is a worse argument than "you've never played so don't know".
He plays like shit for my team, hence I hate him.
Simple shit.
I agree with this. If we were a chance of retaining TMM and didn't do it (that is, he didn't actually just want to return to NZ) it is a retention mistake.I think our difference of opinion comes from me thinking Tesi has some elite talent we need to unlock whereas you've already written him off as a dud. I don't see either of our hookers as having elite talent, just more (some) experience in that position.
I got ridiculed for pointing at Te Maire as the canary, but it's the same logic. I'd rather Tesi left to the Warriors than Te Maire. If we have to manufacture a utility, I see Te Maire able to cover multiple positions at a higher standard than who we retained. Could he be trained to cover hooker for x minutes? Probably, I don't know. But if Adam/Ezra/Reece go down - which they will - he'd save our arse, and we wouldn't miss a beat.
Tesi probably doesn't cover any position, next year. Well, not with any aplomb.
Many happy returns:
We should've snapped him up for two years back when the" Te Maire is set to sign" thread was posted, if he indeed was up for it. But we don't know whether they were already in a bidding war with the Warriors.I agree with this. If we were a chance of retaining TMM and didn't do it (that is, he didn't actually just want to return to NZ) it is a retention mistake.
Happy birthday to the goat!
Its not really about an intellectual intelligence though.....its about football smartsYou can think a player is dumb or lazy though, that’s completely fair. Not many geniuses running around on a footy field though.
Yeah but also, we’ve had plenty of unintelligent players in the jersey over the last few years. Milford couldn’t count to 6 sometimes, Fifita doesn’t know how to read street numbers, Kahu doesn’t know the kick off rules, John Asiata doesn’t believe in being immunised, Jamie Hopoate doesn’t know that drugs are illegal, James Segeyaro can’t make his own shakes, Shibasaki doesn’t know what his hands are used for, Haas needs four blokes to explain everything to him, TPJ didn’t understand lockdown rules, James Roberts couldn’t walk by himself, Joe Ofahengaue had too many dumb things to just list one and Isaako… don’t get me started on IsaakoIts not really about an intellectual intelligence though.....its about football smarts
Which quite clearly, Tesi has none.

It is what you said, because when other posters called you out about it, you defended the position.Not what I said. But I know written comprehension is not your strong suit.
But the point remains: Selwyn needed more NRL before playing Origin. Not even a controversial opinion.
Maybe big del is in fact Tesi Niu.BigDel has gone AWOL since last night's game. I've put up missing posters around my neighbourhood.
