Player Watch #34: Jack Graham - Weighing Up Free Agency Move To WCE

[beema limapep]

Most Australians have no idea what being in his position is like.

Most Australians don't have strangers attacking and criticising them anonymously online.

Most Australians don't have the opportunity in the first place to earn 5-10x the living wage for playing a game whilst putting themselves out into the public eye to grow their brand.

If you are priveledged enough to find yourself in that situation. People know what's good for them and take the good with the odd bad. Otherwise they wouldn't pursue it in the first place.

Exhibit A

Respect is 2 way. Graham needs to know where his place is, RFC don’t want him and he’ll hinder us if he stays from selfishness.

Not sure if that part of your argument is trye when we have a 4 year deal infront of him thats making him think twice about leaving

 

[TigerImposter]

Mate, seriously, no, we asked him to explore his options. We weren't banking on losing Baker, Bolton and Rioli. Club backtracked and then offered a greater offer to Graham. The club stuffed up. It's not that hard to understand. And it was Groc that discussed it. You're the one saying Graham is a mercenary. It couldn't be further from the truth. You're like a shot gun or a dude with diahrea. You just spray shit everywhere in every thread. It's honestly impressive how wrong you are in every thread.

Bull shit ok as it’s all a Groc of shit what you’re saying with unfounded evidence. We offered him a contract so your point is mute. And then we upped it again so you’re talking more nonsense.

 

[THE_GUN]

Nah, we disrespected Graham telling him to look elsewhere earlier in the year. Guess what. He did.

Who told him to look elsewhere when he toured Port ?

 

[DickieKnee]

you sign into probably the most scrutinised public industry in the country, it won't be all smooth sailing.

Yeah it's like going into politics and not expecting any criticism.

 

[TigerImposter]

Nah, we disrespected Graham telling him to look elsewhere earlier in the year. Guess what. He did.

But you’ve contradicted yourself. Your two mates on the podcast gave opposite opinions. So stop your nonsense.All you’ve done today is confirmed that that the podcast is a bullshit show and should never be taken seriously. You’ve thrown your mates under a bus.

 

[TigerImposter]

Fans are entitled to criticise players as we are actually their employers as without us these blokes don’t get paid.

We’ll just wait and see. He’s not staying imo.

If he gets z 4 year deal
Alongside Taranto and hoppers long term deals we are ****ed.

Sure, but someone else's privilege doesn't give you the right to be disrespectful.

 

[T4P]

if one doesn't want the criticism
don't sigh a contract to be a professional sportsman.
until then, it's fair gain.

Very weak to give yourself an excuse like that. Tall poppy syndrome alive and well.

tall poppy syndrome..really?
for a opinion on a player who has wanted out of the club multiple times now.
He's above criticism?

Nobody is above criticism.

But no criticism is above criticism either.

Gives anyone the right to their opinion. No?
