Simple, on the basis that 2 packs would be twice as good, we play 13 forwards in every match, the jobs a good ‘un.
Apparently TS was in duckie's taxi the night before the 2013 Grand Final.
Duckie put it into his head that it was forwards that win games. "If it was down to me coach, I wouldn't play Brett Hodgson," said the duck, "go with an extra forward on the bench". TS scratched his head and said doesn't that leave us short if we pick up injuries in the back line?
"No," says the duck. "if needs be you can play Grix, Westwood or even Harrison out wide in the centres. The Pies don't like it up em, beat them up the middle with the biff".
So TS gives him a tenner and says keep the change duck, thanks for the tip, I don't suppose you have any advice on signings from the NRL?
Duckie says "well, lets keep it quiet for now but I heard that the legendary NZ prop Roy Asotasi could be available. Packs win games and you can't have enough big forwards."
Yet again, this thread descends into rubber duckie bullying.
Pathetic.
The lad's got an opinion. Good on him. For what it's worth, rd, I disagree with you, too. My evidence (not bullying, BTW). The 1993/4 season. We ALMOST won the league with a poor pack..... Thursfield, a fledgling Hilton, Tees, Phillips (who Johnson didn't trust), Chambers, Sanderson, ageing Cullen and Jackson, and the embers of Gregory's career is hardly a title winning pack, is it...... but I WON'T take the P155 out of you for having the opinion that differs from mine.
Some of the abuse that duckie receives is downright vitriolic (some from moderators, who SHOULD know better) , and its about time it stopped.
Many's the time I've disagreed with rd, but it's never been personal. Time some posters took the same approach.

Long may the duck quack.
Skin is too think to allow my feathers to ruffle. Quite proud of the occasional topics I get on the RedVee without even without going on. Better to be spoken about than never be spoken about.
Personally, I've always felt he loves the attention. He is the classic internet account that posts provocative stuff in order to get a reaction and, in the main, he succeeds.
I mean, you don't post stuff like 'Patton for Man Of Steel' or 'This Wire squad will win everything' without having some part of your tongue in your cheek, do you?
The only negative for him now though, is that he's like the boy who cried wolf - even when he posts sensible stuff, a lot of people tend to belittle him because it's him and his history of posting nonsense.
Overall, it's no big deal and it's certainly not bullying.

No bullying intended by me, nor I suspect anyone else. RD posts to get a response, and I have no doubt takes it in the manner intended. He does get some terrible treatment on Redvee though.
I'm not seeing any bullying TBH but then again I'm not seeing any relevant Thoroughly Out Coached posts either. So "it's goodbye from me and it's goodbye from......
