Tom and Jake

FYI I'm Budgie. Changed my name for a bit of fun, isn't fun but has to stay that way for a month.

But sure, I'm Cliffy Biffy Buffy whatever.

People are calling for both Jake and Tom to have a rest. May I suggest that the posters frothing at the mouth over the identity of another poster need a pretty big break themselves.

It's just a footy forum for heaven's sake
The go to play for some when faced with an alternate thought process is to call the person Biff. I find it amusing that there are a handful of posters who display Biff like behaviour yet somehow escape the glare of the "biff light." The Inquisitors and their loyal zealot conformists are being lazy.

Wondered where you went to, your choice of username fits the Biff profile.Hardly frothing,more taking the piss.
 
These two idolise the club and have since they were kids. Loyal to a fault and have given their all.

We win more with both of them than we lose.

They are not responsible for the idiot roster and coaching decisions.

I cannot believe the mounting attacks from you drunken, lazy sausage roll eaters on a family that bleeds maroon and white.

If you don't want passionate believers who give everything for our club, take Seibold and your journeymen and go find yourself another club.

Leave them alone. The attacks must stop.

And no, this isn't an invitation for yet another bout of savaging them though I know that many of you numpties will.

Signed,

Furious and Over It

PS I'm sorry your mothers didn't love you, but I'm starting to understand it

Respectfully, do you have a problem with the much more incendiary criticism that gets routinely gets directed at the club, coach, and 28 other players (most of whom get paid much less)... or is it only an issue when Jake and Tom get criticised?

Some people go too far. But this club is about to miss the finals for the 7th time in the last 11 seasons (under 4 coaches). Either all players should be fair game for criticism if their on-field performance warrants it, or none of them should be. But if it's the latter then there wouldn't be a discussion forum.

My goodness some of you are slow on the uptake.

Criticism = all good.
Abuse = not criticism.

The posts I've read lately have pretty much landed the whole fall of the Manly empire at the feet of the brothers.

We all know what Tommy has been through with injuries and he's done everything the club has asked of him. He had no way of knowing the injuries that were ahead of him when he signed his contract and, when the injuries kept happening, attempted to get his contract reduced. Yep, he's out of form but he never stops trying.

Seibold has no idea what to do with Jake and is ruining what's left of his career. His defence was massively missed last week as was his motivational rants.

All I want from Manly players is to keep trying their guts out with every ounce of talent they have, and this is what we get from Tom and Jake.

I remain hopeful that Tommy overcomes his confidence issues and that a new coach uses Jake's abilities.

Criticism is fine, but the pile on I've seen lately toward two former rep players who put in every week and love the club has left me in despair
 
Almost completely ignorant? Rest assured, no movies have been watched, nor books read.
Mate I wouldn’t boast about not reading any books, books expand your mind mate, at a bare minimum at least read the safety booklet when you next board a plane
 
One thing I do feel very very sorry for is the boys deserved to win a GF before their days were done.

It’s clear that isn’t going happen as I really can’t see us getting anywhere near a big one anytime soon.

There wouldn’t be two more deserving winners in our history than them.

Almost all of our greats have a Premiership.

For that I’m really sad.
 
wrong thread, sorry

As disappointing as two of the Urbros have been this year, I’m not about to blame Galvin performances on them too.
 
Too many words.
You know if you look at the pictures on those plane brochures it looks like a bunch of the worlds worst hide and seek players you’ve ever seen

This is case in point from a plane o was on in 2016

You might not be frothing (that's debatable) but @47MVEagle @Rocky @Wombat64 and a few others certainly are. I'm thinking of compiling the posts these three stooges have thrown out about Biff. This one's Biff, that one's Biff. Remember when Biff did this ad infinitum.

I imagine Biff loves the mental interference he creates in the minds of his few victims on here. Living inside their heads causing an unhealthy preoccupation to manifest even when he's gone. Here's a tip boys. If you stop dredging up the memory of the idiot he won't come back. It's basic troll psychology 101. Don't feed the lame brains and they will go away. You can thank me later.

// Autogenerated, i don't think they will take this advice.

Sorry mate but the biggest pile on has been on Siebold!

Is that first picture suggesting that in an emergency you should headbutt the back of the seat in front of you? And the last picture seems to be suggesting that at the first sign of trouble, open the emergency exit door and jump out in mid air.

Seems unorthodox, but I guess they’re the experts. I understand that these cards have saved countless lives in jet crashes.
