Official - Josh Reynolds Signs Megathread

[Spud_Murphy]

Some would call it passion, others would call it being a complete tosser and overreacting to a throw away line that is generally given when asked how you think your team is going to go. That's if the story is true, of course.

Sorry but I don't believe this story one iota.

Turning on our own team again? Awesome.

Man we've got some really great 'supporters'…

My mate watched Reynolds get ATL'd from the casino early Sunday morning acting like a grub and total wanker

I wish we didn't buy this wanker .. "good for culture"

Actually saw Matt Mc & Alex Twal at the casino a couple of weeks ago behaving perfectly normal. Maybe our culture will rub off on Josh…

You could just about guarantee that Reynolds wasn't the only first grader turfed out of a venue over the mad Monday weekend. It's been reported a few times that he carries on like a pork chop on the drink. We all say and do stupid things when drinking. Maybe the change of scenery and culture will help Josh grow up a little bit off the paddock.

I grew up in Newcastle in 90s and without mentioning names saw a certain player/players who on the field was the reason their team was a success.
If anyone on this forum can actually say in there 20s they never had a bad night on the town would be very hypocritical.
My point being is these guys are young men and a bad night/experience does not sum up a person.
A career does.
I’m not condoning the culture of roughians at our club but let’s be realistic these guys hammer each other week in week out and we expect them to be angels!
That’s a big ask…..to have a team full of Steve Menzies or Paul Harrigons is not going to happen.

If true - Josh needs to pull his head in simple as that.

If you grew up in newy like me mate, I'm sure you know a few john's brothers who were often off their sausage at the Delaney or great Northern night after night.. and, as you say, there was nothing wrong with the knights culture. Chief was a great leader tho.

Being off your sausage is one thing, being off your sausage and punching people out for no good reason is quite another. Russell Packer anyone? Hopefully the story is BS anyway, otherwise please just stay off the drink Josh - you're a good bloke without it.

Wow. Trial by forum post.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

So many supporters seem to gunning for him, and Packer as well. Almost as if they want them to screw up.

Why - your pretty good with your criticsm when it suits. In fact you are lethal when you get set on someone.
I have no problem with Reynolds and hope he represents us well on and off the field, we need him to - but at this stage it all remains to be seen.

Not sure why it would remain to be seen. He's one of the best ambassadors in the game. Instead of waiting for him to slip up, how about embracing him?

Wow sweeping statement!
Glad your on board with Reynolds - much better to have you on side than not.
As soon as Josh shows what he can do for us on the field I can guarantee I will be on the bandwagon.

Questioning how he will be on the field is one thing, doubting what he'll be like off it, given the all the community stuff he does and how popular he is is another.

Never had a crack at him as an individual well documented about his friendships/ off field stuff. I have read about it too.
Commented on a - possible incident -prefaced by "if true". and stand by that.
And would make the same comment if it was any other player it just so happened that the incident referred to was about him.

Actually you did. You said you hope he represents us well off the field as if you have your doubts. I think those doubts are undeserving for someone who does the amount of work that he does.

Is there any other source ??
Sounds like a player on the forum stiring the pot

I don't even think the players are dumb enough to start rumours like that.

 

[cqtiger]

I don’t give two hoots about this rumour, true or not. I don’t want a Mother Theresa playing for and I certainly don’t want a woman basher or mass murderer playing for us either.

This story doesn’t go close to ripping up a contract.

I’ll back Josh to be a top player and embassador for the Wests Tigers.

Russell Packer has done his time and tried his hardest to change his life but to some people he’s still “that person”.

If you want to vent then aim it at Brisbane for signing Lodge, a serial sub-human.

No like button cq - so I'll just say - totally agree.
