Sure the MC are human and can make mistakes, but so are we human, which means we can also make errors, and when that is combined with the fact that we have gaps all over the place when it comes to knowing how to pick a team, I'm flummoxed at how people can be so super confident that they're right. If our MC is that shaky, please apply for a job at the club. We need all the help we can get.
If you predict what going to happen based on the team that's picked....and then it happens...is that dumb luck? Coincidence? Perhaps it's people knowing a thing or 2 about football.
This year we have been better than in the past. Less games won or lost at the mc meetings than at anytime in the past. In years gone by, the team selection has been VERY average.
Vossy played his hand early when he basically said we'd be playing 2 rucks and Harry (and Charlie goes without saying) at the press conference after the dees game. That gives the opposition the whole week to plan for that.
At least keep some mystery about it.
Look, everyone has said their piece. I doubt anyone is going to change their minds.
