Given nobody could take a mark yesterday, I would think the opposite.

Ollie only has himself to blame for not being in the side yesterday. It was pretty ordinary for you to post the screenshot of Johnson on Twitter at a point in time yesterday when he's displayed greater consistency of application and greater hunger. And frankly, quite unlike you to be particularly critical of a player like that, but I suppose it's to be expected because he's in Henry's way.

But you've been down on Johnson since pre-season and very forgiving of Henry all along. As I said, he needs to step up and not act like he's to be gifted a spot. I still haven't been able to get over how he turned his back and walked away from North players accosting Ginnivan this year.

What would the posters who view Henry's lack of application as a problem be writing here if it was Ollie that played AJ's game on Saturday?

Both are talented, both have aspects of their game to improve on.

None of us have a view that's 100% objective, even if we'd prefer to see it as such.

Worry less about being a critic of Jen's views and more about expressing your own. Play ball.

Oh please Jathanas, spare me the white knighting. This is a forum in which people discuss their opinions - putting their opinions out in public leaves them open for scrutiny, does it not? Or are we just spouting our opinions into a vacuum?

I was critical over Jen's long rope she gives Henry because ??? but her instant dismissal of AJ over a poor game. It's not playing the man (or woman in this case) at all, it's being critical of her opinion. Which no one should be immune to on a discussion based forum.

As you say people are allowed to have opinions (and their favourites), but to me it seems you've made a sport of questioning Jen's.

Perhaps ask yourself if you've been as enthusiastic in your critiquing of other's views as you have been of querying hers?

It's fine to disagree mate, but I think you've gone a bit too hard. Hence this post, and it's just my view.

If you are going to criticise a Twitter post, maybe that is the forum on which to do so? Doing it here makes it at least somewhat personal.

Trade period is gonna be so juicy this year. I reckon just let it flow, gonna be real good viewing

Only a matter of time before we seeing people call each other “woke”

It’ll be a good way to remember the forum when the annual summer migration occurs until we all come back for some more next March

Oh boy, if you want to talk about someone who is enthusiastic in their particular criticism of individuals. I don't think you've ever replied to a comment I have made with one iota of positivity. You've made me feel very unwelcome in the past.

Just focus on learning from the criticism.

Righto mate. None of us are above critiquing of opinions about football. That's what my original comment was about. Rushing to the defence of someone because they received a reasonable pushback on their view is ridiculous. All's I'm saying.

No, he is not

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

No, he is not

Yes, he really is. The only user I have particular enthusiasm in criticising here is Kappa. Everyone else is pretty fair game - particularly if I am criticising their opinion, like I did in this case. Honestly this is getting laughable now. I wish this many people would come to my aid when someone pushes back against my point of view!

A good sign of an opportune moment to pause for reflection is when we perceive that everyone else is the problem.

OK, c'mon, bring it in, time for a big hug, you're fine, Kappa on the other hand, well

Thanks doc, been meaning to get back in touch with my therapist but you've set me on the straight and narrow.

So now I'm being called a bully because I criticised someone's opinion? This has really jumped the shark.
