I really don't know why this bloke should get respect anyway.

 

[malroon]

Ok , he's complained about racism, now sizeism, next it'll be ageism...sure hate to be a skinny white teenager..

 

[castle eagle]

He's also been in the media today talking about how he used to hit the bottle to deal with his "mental demons" & that he now knows it's the wrong thing to do.

just the bottle?

And we don't want to forget beardism while we're mentioning isms

He's tripping, that's the best thing to do. Demons can't handle alcohol, especially the one with red eyes that sits at the end of my bed.

 

[wombatgc]

Well he’s painted a nice target on himself now for the opposition and copping fat prick sledging all game. Ennis would’ve had a ball with GI if he was still playing.

 

[Cliffymagic]

I thought he said he has a drinking problem which is probly adding weight. I can't criticize him for that as i too drink everyday. But complaining about fat shaming lmfao.

 

[Spartan Eagle]

The article was taken from an interview Yvonne Sampson that aired on Fox Sports last night on League Life. It's actually the fisrt time I've actually listened to GI speak at length. He is quite a simple character and actually very sensitive. He candidly spoke about his depression how he couldnt get out of bed. The psychologist told him to get out of bed and do things that he enjoys, which is golf and his horses. Eventually he did. I know a lot of people would envy to be in his situation ie to be an elite sports star and to wake up to golf, but to me it highlights how depression can effect anybody. Just my thoughts.

 

[Budgie]

Hmmm. If that’s what he thinks, that’s what he thinks.
At a time when men are killing themselves at record rates, I’m not about to criticise.

 

[MissKate]

Did they mention shagging around behind his wife’s back - all this ‘poor little greg’ stuff is just a distraction tactic. The guy is a prize douche on a whole lot of levels

 

[Highflier]

Is Greg a professional sportsman or a professional victim ,me thinks the latter

-DV issues
-drink driving while speeding
-signing multiple contracts
-philandering
-clearly nudging the beers and burgers

and if you listen to him none of the above is his fault .I don't see him as any kind of role model what so ever .In fact I see his level of preciousness and self pampering right up there with the most precious of sports species going around, that being the Professional tennis player . think Kyrios,Tomic etc etc

sick of hearing about him to be honest especially since it was revealed that Greenturd was his knight in shining armor

 

[Captain Moondog]

I've never hit the dizzying heights and been faced with the Stygian depths, I feel no pain in my comfortable mediocrity.

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

"What a beautiful side step passed the all you can eat salad bar at Sizzlet's by the Salad dodger."

Does that qualify as fat shaming?

 

[Uk eagle]

It's just a smokescreen to hide behind, it's become the norm nowadays for people in all walks of life to blame everyone else. His body is the way he makes his living, it's up to him to look after it. If a plumber turned up at your house with a trowel you wouldn't employ him (or her if we're being PC)

 

[Class of 96]

Is this from the Betoota Advocate? Surely this is a joke?

Thought the same as you W64, and in fact was hoping it was satire. I think it is far more dire than people being soft. It is becoming a convenient excuse for those who are unwilling to be accountable for their own actions and accept the
consequences. Becoming boorish.

I would never make fun of anyone's mental health issues, but it sickens me that this is so blatantly follow up PR to take the heat off his recent drink driving conviction.

The guy can hardly string a sentence together & slurs his speech at the best of times so unfortunately him offering these safe pearls of wisdom sounds completely disingenuous.

He was hardly hitting the bottle to escape his demons when he got pinged, he'd been partying the night before & thought he wouldn't get caught. Playing the mental health card just makes me dislike the bloke even more.

Partying the night before, then one schooner at lunch apparently. Bollocks.

Haven't read whole thread but but he has done a Barnaby Joyce I hear.

The girlfriend is in the family way and the wife isn't happy.

 

[HoldenV8]

I'm fat myself so have no problem with this one

Maybe he should take his boat out and clear his head.

 

[highlandeagle]

I would of thought that being a grub a fraud and a drink driver would be more of a pressing issue than being fat.
