@Bones you honestly believe they signed him knowing full well there was zero change he would make it onto the field?
-
just managed to actually read the article, so he is back to full contact training but he need to prove hes good enough to take someones jersey...its not like he's picked up a new injury (yet)
-
@Kiwiwomble I hope they signed him thinking there was every chance he'd hardly even make the field and really wouldn't add much if he did.
If everyone else can see it, how moronic would they have to be to not see it? The kind of moronic which doesn't select Walden and thinks Ioane is a 12.

@Bones i'm not even sure what that first sentence means...

I'm not sure what part of perfect English you're struggling with...
-
@Bones you want them to have signed NMS to do nothing?

No, otherwise I would've said that...

"I hope they signed him" - self explanatory
"thinking there was every chance" - intent in the coaches mind
" he'd hardly even make the field and really wouldn't add much if he did" - he wouldn't do much -

@Bones is that better? you wanted them to sign him in the full understanding he wouldn't contribute much?
-
you might have expected it if you had a low opinion of the coaches but to hope they did it?

Jesus wept, are you blind to the words "there was every chance"?

Annnnd we come back to my first post. Moronic if they didn't understand he'd most likely be a dud. Which would you rather?
-
@Bones its more the fact you wanted it to happen im struggling with
can we honestly not believe they, having actually seen him train and seen his medicals etc, thats they made decision in good faith?

I suggest you struggle some more. Never have I said I wanted it to happen.

@Kiwiwomble @Bones fuck you 2 are being painful! Get a bloody room!!!
Bones is saying he hopes the coaches and admin went into the signing with their eyes open, paying him accordingly and not putting any significant team-improving expectations on his shoulders.
Is that clear to everyone?
-
@voodoo I quite enjoy @Bones and @Kiwiwomble's domestics they always seem to have on here. They both love each other deep down.
-
I can see believing they would if you dont like the coaches....or believing they made the call hoping him to contribute and were then proved wrong despite the best of intentions
no idea why anyone would want them to deliberately sign someone they knew wouldnt or was highly unlikely to contribute...but if that make sense to everyone else then fair play, must be over my head
