Sonny Bill Williams discussion

[jargan83]

GIGS has hit the nail on the head.

the NRL/Bulldogs could put most of that out with a differant spin, most of those facts are know and others I think are just opinion, and some of it is bullshit by a coward who ran out on his contract. Sure Willie walked out on his contract, but Money Bill Williams could have shown some character by either seeing his out or at least asking for a release face to face instead of doing the gutless thing that he did

But I'm sure he doesn't care what anyone back here thinks of him anyway

[mudskipper]

Its business and he wanted to make a statement and walkout...So what...

Thats not gutless, it took courage. By the way the Dogs publicly sprayed as much crap as possible at SBW during this event and in the end were told to shut up by the NRL and CH9 because they didn't want to go to court over the salary cap.

Contracts are broken everyday,its just at what price...

Thats not gutless, it took courage

I'm glad your not a player manager

[mudskipper]

believe me I wouldn't have let a talented kid sign a 5 year fixed deal...ay 20 years old...

[jargan83]

earning $450,000 a year at 20 years old is a horrible thought

Travelling Jerry, do you know Chris Friend? or have you done some research? Or did you meet him once years ago and have formed a negative opinion of him? Because that’s an exceptionally cynical statement about the guy...

Thats Gerry with a G.

And NO, I dont know him. But my thoughts are as they read. For ANYONE to have reached that high a level coaching not to know the people skills to pick up that body language surprises me.

OR....maybe it was just a journalist just saying that he didnt know. You never know with those journos.

[mudskipper]

It reads to me like the Brumbies media guy wrote the article and gave it to the Times journo who might have added a few words.

[travelling_gerry]

tsk tsk...those journos would say anything
