I'm over the "He's young, you never did anything dumb yourself" shit. No, not really. I was young but not stupid. The calling out his coach was dumb, but leaving his teams game because they were getting beaten was low, and then just heading home because he felt like it before our last game was just not good enough. Luckily the club defended him in the media.
His performances haven't been great at all. Good, at best. He's doing everything he can to not challenge kick catches, he's coming off his wing way too often, not just this week against Shaun Lane by the way. He's been fine, but not on Haas's level, who I also don't like as a person but can praise his good performances. But that's not the issue that's worried me. I am worried about how he will grow as a player and hope he realizes what a big deal it is to play NRL footy because I want him to be as good as those people claim he is and only make one mistake a game.
And cool, I'm yet to hear anything wrong from the source by the way. I've even given everyones boy Smokin' Joe the hot tip at one point, to which I was told that he would shoot me a message when he hears anything which is yet to happen. Numerous signings, Smith/Cronk/Yvonne drama from the mouth of Phil Gould, everything to do with Hook because he worked with him for years at pretty much every club, plenty of Seibold stories because everyone in the comp was talking about it. Everyone loved hearing that stuff and was in my DM's asking all about it, but one bad word about Cobbo and here we go.
