Rapana

[Footy Chicks and Beers]

Anyone else see him kick Croker right before half time ??? He seems to have a history of dirty acts, yet the media and continues to paint him a "good bloke." Can't stand him and cheered like we won the grand final when he shanked his field goal.

He can be an absolute grub, I did see that awful..

He can.

He is.

A dirty, big-mouthed, niggling, loathsome grub.

 

[Cioran]

A team takes on the personality of its coach.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Right in the guts, I’d say that’s why he had to come off early ( although Lawton was a revelation when that happened ).

 

[MadMarcus]

Didn’t see it, but I’ve thought he’s the bigggest dickhead in the game who doesn’t play for Melbourne for a while, so I’m not surprised.

 

[Chip and Chase]

He is known as "Box of Hammers" in our house - just a dumb meataxe. Grubana. Always good for 3 dumb plays and 6 dirty niggles a game. Can't stand the guy and I have never heard him described by anyone as a "good bloke"

 

[Disco]

He is also a terrible fullback

Jordan - rhymes with Gordon.

Gordon - anagram for ‘drongo’.

Ahahah swear I've heard his "gentle soul" mentioned once or twice in commentary could be wrong

Guys been a dodgy cat since he started and called the kick before half time.

Was so good seeing his last attempt at a field goal and funnier watching him watch it all the way like it was going to make it hahaha

He's not a good bloke. Most of the Canberra organisation know him as really arrogant. They keep him for his football not his personality.

This has been an ongoing conversation for years. I remember me ruining at one point somewhere like Facebook and getting hammered for calling him a grub. Didn't change my mind though the guys an asshole on the field

We couldn’t be bothered using four syllables on him. Just one. C@nt.

You must be kidding. He was Canberra's best player tonight and we all saw what happened when he was taken off.
When Sticky brought him back into the match he helped orchestrate Canberra's late comeback.
You may be right about him being a grub but he is one of the most influential players in the NRL.

Good player no doubt, good fullback absolutely not.

He defensive efforts, positioning and marshalling leave a lot to de desired.

I've a handful of Canberra supporting mates and he cops it (at fullback) like a round 3 Croker/Parker

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Another of those Canberra dicks wanting us to pronounce his last name differently.

Like Papali ( Pappa Li Hi )

Agree. Saw this from social media-
“Since changing the pronunciation, Rapana has noticed the impact it had on his family and hopes it does the same for Papalii,
Nicoll-Klokstad and Harawira-Naera.”

Reminds me of Billy Birmingham’s 12th Man-
SOCCER COMMENTATOR: …he passes it to the substitute Smith,
I hope I've pronounced that name correctly.”

So do we pronounce it correctly as
Grub-ana now?
