Paul Green’s memo to Wests Tigers fans over potential sledging of Scott Bolton

[diedpretty]

I think Bolton might not have done too much wrong, might be a media beat up, so I wouldn't be giving it to him, he is not the game breaker to try and stop

he did enough to get charged - i'm guessing his wife might think he did a bit too much.

Exactly…I doubt he would've flown from Sydney to Townsville for a quickie ...
Then back to Sydney for the game .

Yep - i hope he plays - i don't think his mind will be on the game - I know he won't play - Green is not that stupid.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I wouldn't know him if i fell over him, let alone be aware enough when he has the ball to boo him.

This is coach mind games 101\. Building up a seige mentality.

Exactly,
With Thurston’s record against us Greeny would rather the fans sledge Bolton than get into Thurston head.

Bondi Bolton. We need to be careful he skilled at going for the snatch with quick hands. Boys need to watch their ‘Balls’security.

 

[Monnas]

Lucky Sharon’s no longer in the team, Bolton might have have mistaken him for an easier target.

Gold :master:

Fair game I'd say - if he plays then go your hardest at him.

Greeny , you lived far too long in NSW

Mate he is a Qlder , he should be saying , bring it at your own peril and back your words with actions on field

Far out is he kidding really :unamused:

 

[Tigerdave]

actually kinda surprised he's playing

 

[innsaneink]

Scott no bolt in

Highly doubt hell play

 

[andrew 474]

Sledge now , say sorry later , I'd give it to him and Thurston all night ,
Simple , married with Kids means you go play your game and behave , can't get into this type of issue doing the right thing

 

[TIGER]

Im sure he didn't fly back from Townsville for a haircut, he'll be playing.
Why would Green even mention it if he wasn't playing.

 

[jadtiger]

Maybe Bolton should wear earplugs tonight because he is certainly going to get lots of comments from the crowd.He will feel like he is at the coloseum with the crowd baying for his blood

 

[Tim Sheens]

Poor form to sledge him imo.

He's innocent until proven guilty.

Couldn't agree more!

Quite a few players have been found innocent in the past to these types of allegations.

Also it will probably fire up NQL.

Being found not guilty is not the same as being found innocent, it's very different…

It hasn't even gone to trial yet, so your point is moot…

He had better hope the magistrate is blind if he intends to plead not guilty, otherwise he might as well plead guilty, as that is exactly what he was showing to me when fronting the press.

I think I'll target Thurston. If Bolton does anything positive of note I'll streak. Seriously it's like someone playing against us in the past and sledging Milone.

Plus the feeling when you know you've stuffed up is the worst feeling I've ever felt and apart from 80 minutes tonight I don't wish pain and suffering on people when they are vulnerable. No judgement though, if people have good sledges I'll laugh.

 

[underdog]

Stupid play by Green - this NEVER works, and if anything the complete reverse will now happen - a la the Adam Goodes thing where the petulant sook said "Don't boo me, it's racist if you do!" And the crowd absolutely gave it to him.

 

[underdog]

Also I think a large

"BAD BOY BOLTON!"

banner placed at one of the ends (or both) would also do the trick. :smiley:

Yeah….makes sense - good comparison.

How many games did Milone play in first grade again?

Your darkest hour is still only 60 minutes

Life's like that , when stuff goes wrong usually lots goes wrong , how we deal with that is what matters

You get through , you move on

Its not like Bolton will probably hear it or even remember it

And if he did , you use it against your opposition , put some extra oomph in your next run or tackle
