I disagree. I reckon most who have seen Lids buckle down and really start to play like he can in the latter half of the season would be thrilled to see him rewarded for finally getting the message and playing like the elite we all knew he was capable of.

Lucky for him he had people around him who cared enough about Lids to tell him some home truths about his application. Even more credit to Lids to taking it as it was meant and responding positively to it.

Baloo have no problem with your post but i aint going to repeat what i just wrote to U2 above, its not about Lids saying yeah i was slack at times...Ive posted why i have been upset with some, so not to repeat myself ive posted it in the above post....cheers
 
Re: Brett Deledio

Astute, you were the one that called me gullable (sic) for believing what Lids said to the media about realising he had to staart trying harder because he'd been lazy. You said it was Lids towing some party line.

I'm still waiting for you to clarify that and explain to me how I was gullable (sic). Was Lids so keen to "pretend" to try harder that he started writing "Run Hard" on his hand ?

FFS u bloody precious or what, all i said was u come across gullible thats it dont get ur knickers in a knot and BTW u came back to me in a condescending way but i just let it go...Now if u want to take this debate to another level by all means PM.
 
Re: Brett Deledio

I'm just asking you what was so gullible about believing what Lids said in the media. No need for PMs or swearing through acronyms. Just explain what you mean.

It's hardly being precious (at least on my part). You obviously have better information than I do and I am interested to hear it because I cannot for the life of me understand where you were coming from with your statement.

Ok i said the below about coming across gullible thats it and u said in ur reply "one here who cant see the real truth thats out there" but u also said
Thank god for people like you to show us poor fools the way. I'm not sure what the club would be do without you. you still think thats not being precious, actually precious is to kind, condescending would be more appropriate...

Thats the thing and maybe my advantage is i know a little more to what had been going on when wallet was there, anyway im leaving it at that.

Well about PM's or swearing dont p!ss me off and im happy to tell you why, uve said ur piece yesterday "what i have above in bold" and i let it go i came back to you yesterday with "no worries baloo, no disrespect intended" but uve come back 2nite wanting to go on with it.

sheez baloo u come across gullable
 
Re: Brett Deledio

Nice mini-rant Astute, but you still haven't answered the question. What makes you think that Lids was just towing a party line when he said he had been lazy ? Why was I, and others, gullible for thinking Lids really was lazy early on ?
 
Re: Brett Deledio

I think he realises he might be wrong, let's not rub his nose in it.

And gee there are some sensitive replies in this thread. If you feel you're being blinded by frustration or embarassment, wait a few minutes before replying. You'll come across much more composed and logical. It should be clear that people on this forum are not very generous towards anyone who fumbles under pressure :hihi

my word TB, might not be enough for some though...

yep i think that too, Shhh some on here might not be happy :headscratch

Why do you think that Astute? Has anyone posted that they'd be unhappy with Lids winning the B&F?

Its not a rant have a look at your own posts before u start firing at me, when i said u came across gullible nothing wrong with that but u came back with a not so nice reply, so i thought ok baloo aint that happy with that remark so i decided to let it go and reply back with "no worries baloo, no disrespect intended"....Now it shouldve been left there by that peace offering comment by me but nah u still gotta push my buttons a day and a half later, hence my not so nice reply back...

Another thing i didnt call anyone gullible except saying u "came across gullible" and also didnt say anyone was a fool which u alluded to in one of ur posts...

Its amazing u asked a question i didnt answer it for reasons to not get caught explaining more than perhaps i should, u know how many posters ask questions on this site including me and dont get replies and/or explantions back, u dont then stalk someone like u have and asked me 3 times over 2 days the same question, ease up...

He's one of the hardest trainiers on the track and all im going to say is he's mind was up and down but credit to him playing more better games than worse games in that first half, did it affect his output totally well yes meaning some games he couldve gone harder by his own admission, but players dont usually talk themselves up....

Baloo u know if u look through pages of this thread my angst with some has always been on games he's had good and he's still got people on his back when he's been in the best players and i have fired back, some of the things labelled at him were damn rude and i flied the flag for him and do it again.

Now on towing the party line well what i meant by that and if im wrong im wrong but there were reasons for lapses in his game which he surely wasnt going to open up a can of worms about his thoughts on TW, this i know, if u have problems with ur boss and it affects ur work does this make u lazy? or do the personal issues with him contribute more so to some inconsistencies in your overall work output....he didnt make excuses nor should he to the media and took the blame for what some of his team mates said he needed to improve on, im happy to stand corrected on that comment but there cicumstances that lead to that and thats why i said u came across gullible, it wasnt a cardinal sin mate and thats all im saying on the matter....
 
Re: Brett Deledio

Thanks Astute, I'm sure the answer I was looking for is in there somewhere. I'll get to it when I have a spare 30mins.
 
Re: Brett Deledio

Memo to all concerned- It would be appreciated if the bickering and insults are kept off the forum. Personal spats add nothing to the topic and posts will be deleted if they continue.

ahh a few have said if he wins it theres no real competition, that aint a glowing endorsement in my eyes and i disagree with that, there has been plenty of competition between the players regardless where we are on the ladder, same can be said for every team out of the 8...
Anyway Rosy i think i have more than put my input into this lids thread...
