Taylor Pedestrian confronted Mumbles.

[D_One]

Reported on 5DoubleCrow yesterday that after being dropped Taylor Pedestrian confronted Mumbles and asked three things …

1. Why was he being dropped when his performances up forward have been better than Spud Tippett's?
2. Why was he being dropped when Ricky Henderspray hadn't kicked a goal in the previous three weeks?
3. Why was Phil Davis being played up forward when he is a natural defender and everyone knew that OJ Bock was leaving for the Gold Coast?

To which Mumbles replied "Bock is leaving????"

Actually the true story goes that Walker confronted Craigy about getting some advice on his public speaking ability.

Given Walker will be collecting plenty of awards in the future in which he has to make a speech, he wants to get rid of his Broken Hill bogan accent and speak more affluently. The reason why it looked like an altercation is because Craigy thought Walker was taking the piss.

I prefer Hendershank myself, but Lachie already has dibs on that nickname so Henderspray will have to do.

Well Taylor Pedestrian played his junior football for the NSW/ACT Rams and rumour has it that GWS will be heavily marketed as a pseudo-state team (just like West Coast and the Camry Crows) and the slogan "100% NSW" has been bandied about. They will be targeting current players originating from NSW and the players I've heard that they will be pursuing are Kieren Jack, Tom Hawkins, Daniel Cross, Sam Gilbert, Ranga Ediriwickrama and Taylor Pedestrian.

After the way Mumbles has treated him Taylor Pedestrian could well be off like Hudson, Bock and Knights.

hmm I would have thought a person who claims to live in Sydney would understand the Broken Hill/NSW/SA dynamic.

BTW played most of his junior footy with North Broken Hill. Signed up with NSW/ACT Rams to be eligible for the NSW Scholarship Contract Adelaide signed him to at 16 .

Not a fan of Chris Knights, kalty?

All of the above is correct but that doesn't mean that GWS does not see him as a marketable commodity for their NSW Waratahs/NSW State of Origin team clone.

There's a reason why they signed up Wagga boy Paul Kelly to work for them as a talent identification officer and marketing tool. They want to get NSW country kids watching and supporting their franchise.

Taylor Walker would be ideal … and if Mumbles keeps shitting on him the offer that GWS makes may be very tempting.

Yes, Tex is a household name here in Sydney

its sad that certain people get sucked in by any media report that comes across their desk and claim it as gospel. Tex is a Crows boy through and though. Grew up as a one eyed crows supporter and counts his lucky stars that he now gets to live out his dream and play for them. Craigy will go before tex does. Not saying though craigy needs to go. Apparently Boak, Tippett, Dangerfield etc were also really unhappy and wanted to leave their respective clubs. We all saw how that turned out didnt we.

Did Boak, Spud Tippett and Dangershank ever confront their coaches and say "Why was I dropped and why are those spuds still getting a game".

 

[scazvegner90]

when was boak leaving??

It was a rumour Caroline Wilson started circulating about 2 months.

The rumour that Taylor Walker confronted Mumbles was stated on the 5AA Sports Show by Graham Cornes. It would be good to know how Mumbles responded to one of this most intellectually challenged players displaying more coaching sense than himself.

So just because Graham Cornes reported it its true. No different to Caroline Wilson, who was 100% certain, that Boak would go. And im sure there are 1,000 confrontations in every football club every year. There are 40 odds blokes all there and i am damn sure not every one of them would get along.
Finally he should be questioning why he was dropped. How else is he going to improve his game.
I would be upset if he was dropped because of pure stats alone and yet was still doing the chasing and tackling and 1%ers right but he's not. He got dropped because of his laziness, lack of concentration and lack of a second effort.
