A fierce household debate has today been resolved after a dad was proven to be wrong without having to admit it.
Through a stubborn, almost obnoxious, half hour argument – local man Lloyd McNamara (62) was forced to admit that his 29 year old daughter Ellie actually knows more about football than he does.
A simple google search on a laptop sitting in the middle of the living room came as the last resort for Ellie, who’s old man made it clear he was of the belief that there has not yet been an NRL player who has played for all three Queensland clubs.
The unnecessarily hostile debate is believed to been started by Lloyd, who is having a hard time to coming to terms with the fact that there are no Queensland teams making their way to the NRL grand final this year.
“I’m telling you. These clubs haven’t even been around long enough for there to be a three-club player” said Lloyd, who only seems to envision himself as a rugby league analyst when in conversation with his daughter or wife.
Short of FaceTiming his die-hard sports-better of a son living down south, which would have possibly escalated the argument, Lloyd agreed to allow Ellie to google some player statistics.
Within seconds it was revealed that Lloyd had been stubbornly in the wrong this whole time, and was so wrong in fact that he couldn’t even attempt at changing his in interpretation of the initial argument.
“Scotty Prince, you reckon?” says dad.
“Well, there you go”
