No I didn't. I called O Driscoll trash.

Stick to the facts please, and stop making things up.


l;earn to read. read the statement if in full

i said and i will repeat you called all union players crap once you called him Trash. Stop reading what you want as its obvious you dont want a discussion just your right were all wrong.

Its amazing the bigotry still exsists in todays society. You jsut cant face facts that some union lpayers are a lot better than league players. How many league players in the last 6 years have mae an impact in union. ! Robinosion all others have failed to make an impression on the game.

Werent leageu players far superior yet Faz has failed, Vainokolo failed, Pryce, failed, Harris failed, Hape failed. Paul failed.

Some of the best players in league yet have failed against players like Driscoll.

But let's analyse your statment there, for amusement value if nothing else.


I presume you mean Union players, just to get your grammar correct and enable me to understand the point that you are making.


So Union players run better lines than RU players eh?


:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:


Are you SURE?


I love "debating" with you as you always break it down to the lowest common denominator, (always a sign you are in trouble by the way :wink: ) Watch a League game in the UK and watch how the players drift towards the touch line generally. Now watch a union game look at a straight runner or a centre who takes the line on in an attempt to give a player space.

O'Driscoll has great feet, good hands and a rock solid defence. He has played against a Kiwi legend in Tana Umanga who was the rugby player of his generation in both codes and was a superb league player untill he chose union and had him in his back pocket.

The lad is very very talented, but you chose to call him average.

I expect nothing less from you.

Robinson played with some great centres and he rates him as one of the best PLAYERS he has played with, but obviously you are right as usual, even in the face of superior evidence.....still a dyslexic lad may have made a spelling error so let focus on that! :lol:

If I had one leg I wouldn't challenge someone to a 100 yards race.

If I were "dyslexic" I wouldn't enter into an intellectual debate on an internet forum.




Ok so let's put this into context.

OD vs Carmont
OD vs Senior
OD vs Meninga
OD vs Connolly
OD vs Gidley
OD vs Kenny
OD vs Miles
OD vs Bell


Do I REALLY need to make the point?

Why you mentioning players who aren't currently in Super League? I haven't seen anyone say he's better than Meninga, Bell, Kenny or Miles were. I have seen people say he's better than Senior and Carmont because he is.

Your opinion of yourself astounds me! :lol:

Is this what you consider an intellectual debate?
:lol:

I think OD is a superior player to Senior and Carmont, not the rest, but is that such a crime?!

Does that make him not a quality player? :lol:

Ok

Senior
Gidley
Carmont



I dare say that even if someone like Bailey were to line up against him, OD would get NOTHING out of him.


Dumped on his ar$e and nullified.


As I say though, it's only a matter of time, given the CC that this will NOT be the case.

The CC will ensure that RL is years behind RU.
