Cannot recall another player talking crap like this.
Well, I imagine the discussions with the Tigers would have been done by his manager, not the player. So, who knows what the manager told him the offer from the Tigers was? He may well be stating the truth as told to him by his manager.
And, lets face it, apart from Kent, Hooper, Rothfield, Ikin and the so-called "journos" of NRL, there is no bigger blight on the game than player managers.
Nothing wrong with Ikin, Kent, Hooper, Toovey and Benji on 360. The dribblers on 9 are getting money under false pretences.
Toovey and Benji have some credibilty through their on-field careers and achievements. I don't have issues with them.
It's the professional NRL-nuffie "journalists" such as Kent and Rothfield and Hooper, who seem more intent on wanting us to believe "I know better than the others", that I despise. With a passion. Add Michael Chammas and his cringeworthy support for Benji and ongoing bagging of WT to that list as well.
Collectivey, I see them as a scourge on the best interests and future of the game, in my opinion.
As for the Ch 9 mob .....? I haven't watched any of their NRL coverage or shows in about the last 5 years so I can't comment. No matter how keen I am for a footy fix, if Ch 9 is the only option, I go without. So I don't watch the GF or SOO. Couldn't care less.
Kent did actually play - he also played 1 game in first grade, something most of us on here have never done.
Well that entitles him to be a smarmy opportunist then, doesn't it? I think if you search far enough Rothfield played in park footy in 1948. So what?? How does one game of first grade give Kent or any other of those nuffies any authority or credibility to earn income in offering their thoughts on the game?
