Yes sherlock, but the difference is I don't profess to be anything but a complete and utter c*nt........that happens to be a lunatic chooks fan.
I'm about the banter. I don't whinge and roll my eyes about things, then do the same thing that I'm whinging and rolling my eyes about.... if you're picking up what I'm putting down ..

Long story short.......you're a farrken hypocrite.

And i'm a sarcastic pr1ck, I dont deny that. Maybe i should resort more to personal abuse as that seem to be far more acceptable around here.

Anyway, so what do we have here, a complete & utter c#nt whinging about a whinger who is whinging about the whingers. (hope i havent confused you there). I suppose i'm not the only farken hypocrite around here.

Its amazing how easy it is to get a rise out of people like you.

Political correctness won't win you a premiership. And I won't speak for everyone but I would say the majority here on The Chookpen would be pleased to see Mini go. If that's the case that wouldn't necessarily mean the Roosters would lose a lot of fans. Yes he has been great and I have very fond memories of him but sometimes hard decisions have to be made for the betterment of the team.

No doubt but you also don't win premierships without the support & trust of the players. You also don't last very long in coaching if the fans turn on you. The board know that if Robinson is a failure, e.g back in the bottom 4 and alot of fans are calling for his head they've got a great back up plan in Bellamy.

TheChookpen is a very small sample size of supporters, as already pointed out Mini won the members player of the year. It's not easy to convince people that a club great is now one of our worst and one of the competition's worst. On here before the season had kicked off I said he was incompetent and that even one of the youngsters would do a better job than him and I got absolutely smashed, it's taken a long time for a lot of people to come around on here don't forget. I'd expect the same sort of reaction from the rest of the fans if he was just dropped...

Heres the thing, the reality is he has signed on for next year and will be in the team come rain, hail or shine. So, death riding him and not putting him in you 'team for next year' is becoming silly. Instead of whining about it, it is the reality and he is a club great and quite frankly not quite as bad as some on here are making out so I suggest we get on with it and find a new thing to discuss

Bellamy - let's wait and see and he's no certainty, I highly doubt Robinson will be turfed after one year and for mine he will do well.

I think you'd be surprised if there was an uproar if Mini was dropped - it may be a step forward. And if something (injury) happens to RTS then we just poach Barba from the Bulldogs. They got Perrett and his brother so I think it's only fair we get something in return - albeit a severe class difference but it's high time we recruited a Bulldog that earned his keep. SBW - we'll see, Barba in racing terms is as close to Black Caviar at the present time.

We'd be as popular as Danny Nikolic if we did steal him.

My view is Terry Bailey has it in for Nikolic, I hope Nikolic wins to be honest.

If we did steal Barba, I'd be happy for the club and the diatribe from Beetroot face headed our way, to win the most unpopular award - whatever category was chosen.

This is only opinion, nothing more. We all see things differently.

Personally i dont think Mini has been anywhere near as bad as has been made out on here..... but that is just my opinion, & obviously many who share the same opinion.

Also wasnt Mini one of our leading points scorers at the Dally M's this year?

All I ask is for a player to be picked on performances and not reputation. Mini will be good to have around the club, however he should not be a walk up start for 26 rounds simply because he is a club legend. Hopefully Trent picks a team on form, and has the balls to make the tough calls if and when required.

Danny nikolic has been unmercifully disgracefully persecuted... oops off topic...

Now now Jack, no need for sarcasm, as you can see it doesnt go down well around here.

The Underbelly of the racing industry has been exposed.

Hey Vic...I wasn't being sarky for once...I think he has met with corrupt forces with the vrc...

Are you serious he can be diabolical, I still have memories of his handling of i think it was the Parra match or there about, balls up after balls up, what about that 40/20 a few weeks ago he completely misread and his inability to read the bouncing ball. Half the time when he hits it up on the inside he drops the ball and lets not start on his ball playing skills.
He WAS a great player and will always be a Roosters Legend, but he's now past it.

I was calling him the worst fullback in the NRL in 2011 on the wall and many did not take it too kindly.. He is a complete laughing stock now.. How some people cannot see this is completely beyond me. If Robinson wants to keep his job then it won't be a very tough decision to make.. A lot of people love Mini but they also have no understanding of football so trying to please those people is not going to help him keep his job in a results orientated business.
