James Hooper, the (clown) journalist.

I cant stand this gronk.

He's on a fair few programs and it's the same act every single time.
Name dropping, pretending he's in the know about everything and he's close, personal friends with everyone in the league.

"Laurie Daley told me this….."
"I have the inside scoop on this...."
"So and so will be selected for the blues..."

No.

Hopefully others share my dislike for this twit.

I'm with ya Demps…

 

[innsaneink]

green Thunmbs up cerntal here

 

[Demps]

Hate his smug smile, every time…
All chummy on the lounge next to whoever - Braith, Corey Parker, Sterlo.

It's like when the lame kid no one likes get a sympanthy invite to a party.
All smiley.

 

[maxxy86]

Apparently he is a Wests tigers fan guys

I don't believe it.
He's a groupie though.

He's no Vossy (footy fan, entertaining, non-player, good commentater)
and he has no insight into the game.

Just a regular Joe who thinks he's more important than he really is and knows nothing but pretends he does.

A quick google search, a thread pops up on League Unlimited with an article from him saying Gasnier will play pivot for Saints…... wow.

James Hooper- you're an idiot.
You're no more qualified than any poster on this forum or any other forum for that matter, you should not be on tv.

PLEASE RESPOND.

his only connection to NRL is that sterlo and himself share the same barber.

 

[Sabre]

He's admitted to being a big Wests Tigers fan before.

But for someone who claims to be a fan of the club he doesn't mind sticking the boot in and causing division and drama at the club when it suits his pay cheque.

 

[Demps]

Fairweather fan, I'm sure he says anything depending on who is around at the time.
Dishonest, deceitful, pretender.

His fakeness is clear even through the TV.
I cant respect a suss, fake dog like him.

One of the worst "personalities" in the game.
Wouldn't even really call him a personality either, he's boring, fake and lame.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

They're all fairweather. Bourbon Beccy is a Beagles "fan" and Rothfilth will stick the toe into his "beloved" Sharks first sign of trouble.

Very clever. :laughing:

 

[ricksen]

He's a professional muck-raker, and lives on sensationalising gossip and hearsay.
Basically a poor man's Danny Weidler, and I don't think there can be any sterner insult than that.

You've summed this flog up to a tee Demps! Well done!
Tryhard is the word that comes to mind when I see Hooper- tries to look like people are interested in his opinion when he is on those footy shows when I'd be betting they just think he is some lame hanger-on.
He tried to say something he thought was a big, thoughtful statement regarding rugby league and Corey Parker just gave him this look of contempt that said "what are you on about d###head and why are you even on this panel in the 1st place?" It was hilarious.
Biggest tosser on TV is Hoops, gotta love that fake laugh of his where his whole body shakes and let's not forget his cliche`s….. "couldn't knock the top off a pudding" is his staple go-to one. Can't stand him.

Name one WT's fan who hasn't stuck the boot in Sabre at some stage

I think he was weird if he hadn't

 

[pHyR3]

yeah hes a ****er

just ignore him, hopefully hell go away. thats my hope anyway

 

[Chevy]

Danny Weidler wannabe….

 

[steve-o]

Bourbon Beckie infuriates me. Rothfield will write whatever his boss tells him too (always sensationalised crap). Hooper seems like a tool, but he's not the worst of them.

Steve Mascord is one of the better league journalists. My only criticism of his is that he sometimes writes articles on the most trivial of issues eg the state of rugby league in Serbia

Apparently they are having problems with the bunker over there as well.
