Quade telling it how it is

[Braveheart81]

I believe that one is known as the "Getting caught using Social Media at work" emoticon.

 

[I like to watch]

If they said nothing it would have been spun as "Mitchell & Kepu refuse to support Deans/Cooper" (delete whichever you don't support)

and what did they say?

The issue
They hope they sort it out
It was shit timing and the team could do without it

If Cooper leaves
No one is bigger than the game and there is always someone else

I took as more than that, it appears that most of it came from Kepu.

''I guess they're his problems and opinions, he's just voicing it himself, and if that was me I'd definitely deal with it in a different way,'' Kepu said.'

Kepu is stating
1) QC (Quade Cooper) is on his own
2)He is critical of the manner that QC (Quade Cooper) raised his issues.

The other motherhood statements about being a team player etc is backing the status quo .
I think it's more than a no comment.

Probably because they were asked by a journalist at the event, they didn't say anything to inflame the situation, just team unity stuff.

You don't think journalists have already called players like Mitchell to get a quote?

I can confirm that three players are definately not happy with the Deans game plan, Sharp , Slipper and Simmons.
I can also confirm that within the team there is slight resentment against Beale, Cooper and O'connor as they act somewhat like priemadonnnas. Cooper at times rocks up to training late and gets away with it. I not so sure the ABs management would be so forgiving.

I was told last week that players were on a week long media ban, maybe it's over.

Leaving Sharp to one side: Slipper and Simmons would hardly support a game plan which sees them on the bench.
Sharp knows he's out of there so he can please himself.
Totally agree with what I expect the ABs attitude to this would be - see my earlier post attributing QC (Quade Cooper)'s attitude, in part, to JOC (James O'Connor)'s unpunished or insufficiently punished photo no show.
Its not a popularity contest - although he seems to be losing that now too!

 

[What2040]

would have thought plenty would have been unhappy with game plan - hasn't worked often

 

[waratahjesus]

Interesting call on sharpe, if he was unhappy surely he wouldn't have bothered postponing his retirement.

I can also confirm that Deans doesn't like surnames starting with S.

Not that I understand your point yet Scotty, but Gisborne High NZ (whatever that has to with anything)

Thread's broken.

We need a needle to fix the thread. There's a haystack, let's start looking in there.

 

[waratahjesus]

JOC (James O'Connor) on the rugby club just deflected the question on Quade As if he was prime minister being asked for policy details. brilliant.

Sharpe, Simmons and Slipper all went to TSS in Queensland - along with Higginbotham, Morahan, Tapuai...

They're like an aussie Christchurch Boys High, without the five-eighth specialty. Or like Gisborne, minus all the Gears.

You know the funny thing about all the social media talk in here being good or bad, funnily enough just read that Corey Jane only ever got into twitter because the Canes board asked him and Tialata to, to help connect with younger fans.

Sorry PP.

It seems I still have a way to go before I can start calling myself Sherlock!

If anyone has any interesting questions inregards to what some of the Wallabies attitudes are, let me know.
I have a personal friend that knows many of them and catchs up with a few socially from time to time ( He coached a few of them in the past ) and he is friends with a few Super 15 coachs.
I can always ask him to see if he can find out. He gets some interesting information sometimes ( how much Deans get paid lol etc)
