i have zero doubt that as he was coming through and it was probably said to him to brush up a bit on his media, he watched a lot of cronk and learned. Cronk is exactly the same, where's the article bashing him? Oh he didn't change his mind on something, can't bash him.
Time to get over the backflipping thing. he's not the first, won't be the last.
It was only blown out of proportion because media was there every step of the way stalking him making it worse.
If media training, being polite and actually thinking before he speaks sets him up for post footy career, then good him. I'd rather hear insights from the likes of him and cronk than Blocker and co.
