Sounds like a dig to me buddy but Im too old to really give a shit. Well maybe a bit because Im confused.
I included the reasoning behind my hypothetical picks, for my hypothetical team. Did I mention hypothetical? I mentioned it was difficult because I think finally we have competition for spots and depth. I explained my team structure and the hypothetical roll people hypothetically play under certain hypothetical conditions and game plans. Ive also said I cant decide my hypothetical smoky bolter at 17. Its nice to see you stick up for JAC, his is achievements are always embedded in history. All that doesnt disappear when some virtual bloke in a cloud posts in a thread that literally has the words '...whos in YOUR team.' in it. Sure I added abit of sacasm but thats just the way I roll. You laughed so Im happy about that.
Geez Im almost exhausted. So the confusion is about how its percieved as a 'new favourite toy' squeezing exercise? Are you sure you're not squeezing in a few new toys of your own...and thats not a dig mate.
By the way …. Welcome to TK mate … just mentioning, the thread is “Starting 17 … Who’s in your team …
Not ..
“Starting 17 (hypothetically) … Who’s in your team (hypothetically)…
You may have mentioned the word “hypothetical” in your comment, I’m not sure, but the thread was clearly asking you to name who you’d start with if given the opportunity …
Obviously everyones welcome to name who they like in their starting team, but to leave JAC out who’s Australian & SOO left wing and put Xerri there instead, who’s a question mark after 4 years out, that’s clearly going to raise an eyebrow or 10 …. You may have your reasons, but you’ve got to expect people to question it.
Take JAC’s individual try’s out of our 2023 season and where would the team have finished on the ladder … ?
Xerri might well prove to be a bigger asset than JAC, but you’d think he’d need to prove it first before just walking in game 1 ‘taking his spot ..
