Greg Bird *Discussion*

[underdog]

Hang on, I'm not saying he didn't do the right thing in stopping her from harm.

What I am saying is there is evidence it was not the first time he had done this - just because that one incident garners publicity, doesn't make the guy a pariah.

As you are insinuating southerntiger, there is more to it than that - and I'm insinuating the same thing - there IS MORE to it.

Fair enough mate. I dont agree with your understanding of the facts but respect the basis on which you made your statement.

Inglis def had a big issue with Teddy was at him at every opportunity, any history there I'm not aware of?
It seemed to be more than a fullback trying to get one over his opposing fullback.

I think people are getting it wrong re teddy and Inglis. He got up to look at Simona IMO and then did it again a few other times- he obviously still remembers Simonas accidental hit that knocked him out last year.

I actually don't know anything about GI and his domestic violence case but of late ive paid extra attention to all his off field charity work and I believe whatever happened previously, he's put it behind him. I actually have a lot of respect for him and think he's the best player I've ever seen play.

Don't agree. It's a premiership winning, origin and Australian rep showing a new kid on the block what it takes. Tedesco threatens him and he responded. Ball is in tedesco's court now

Yeah I bet he loves pretending to land square on top of his head in tackles.

 

[TurnStyle]

imo, inglis is nowhere near bird: i think he actually knows what integrity means…

 

[teddy23]

Rumors going around that he might be available, if so he cant be wanting much as he is 30 he still has 2-3 more years and would bring so much experience to our players.

[Sabre]

Yes please!

 

[Iceman23]

Would be a great buy!

 

[Tigermama]

I'm sure we've done Greg Bird before, and my reply then was NO thanks. It's still NO.

 

[Tim Sheens]

Raise a glass time, no thanks.

 

[vlad]

Hell no

Too much dodgy off field stuff

&

He's one lifting tackle away from a 12+ week holiday

 

[tigerbenji]

Probably will go to Manly.

 

[NT_Tiger]

No

 

[Goose]

Im in the minority here, but I dont rate Bird much as a player. He does what he does well, but he makes a lot of mistakes and gives away a lot of penalties, these change momentum so much in the modern game, it more than undoes his good work.

Not many teams he plays in win very often, I reckon he is part of the cause

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

There's not many I wouldn't take here, but he is one. A germ of the highest order.

 

[Joel Helmes]

Pass

 

[spearby]

please no

 

[yeti]

Absolutely despise the man, but as a footballer, he just might be the kind of hard-edged (read "dirty"), player this team needs. Someone who doesn't mind giving out a bit. We need to change the mentality of this team, and he'd be a start. So, a guarded 'yes' from me.
