Someone said something re Hastings

[fLIP]

Nobody else has said it so I will.

If Hastings is let go he must be an A grade f**kwit. Might be time to learn your lesson son.

I dont see how that article is relevant to things that may have unfolded in the the last week n a half

 

[Chip and Chase]

These alleged attitude issues seem at odds with his social media presence. Either he has a great PR person or he gets a bad wrap

****ing hell. Jumping to conclusions much?

It's what we do.

Could it be that Croker, Wright and Hastings all had a fair crack at getting the number 6 jersey, all busted their balls in trying, and Croker just won out?

No.

No idea how people just seem to "know" he has an attitude problem with the group.

We are just going on what has been said quite a few times from different sources. It seems plausible. Is there another way to explain why nobody else wants a prodigiously touted talent?

Are you saying that's Hastings in the photo when it's not. If I had a dollar for every time someone said that's Hastings in that photo I would prob have around $7 dollars

I really didn't think I had to point out its obviously Brad Parker, but it's the other bloke that has got me stumped.

It's not jumping to conclusions, he is not liked by a lot of people in the organisation.

It's not strictly an attitude problem where he just thinks he is great and he doesn't have to train hard or anything (like Hayne). It's more that he just doesn't fit in. Some blokes just don't have great social skills and can't relate to the "boys". It's not one big happy family like we all imagine it to be...it's real life and some blokes just aren't part of the group.

I'm guessing he is disliked as well as "he is not liked by a lot of people in the organisation" and "he just doesn't fit in".
Probably better to keep him out of the Blacktown group as well if that is the case.

Maybe even cop his fee on the chin, as nobody else seems to want him, and release him for the betterment of the club... if we don't "need" him to make up our 30.

Hey Snake, has the board softened their position on Carney at all?

That's what I keep thinking! On twitter he seems like a great guy - and genuinely so. If he was such a ****wit, he wouldn't be able to sustain that engaging persona.

Unlike a conman or a sociopath?

Was really looking forward to seeing Cletorus in the no. 6 this season.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

This may be one of the least factual threads in ST history, which is really saying something.
Not to mention ... how many are expressing views along the lines of 'so long, Jacko you weirdo' yet were up in arms when a certain halfback was not chosen to play for Qld last year?
From memory the slogan 'personality shouldn't come into it' got a fair run back then.

And Greenberg would be looking for ways to include that $7 in our salary cap.

 

[Smokin Joe]

If he is on the outer and they are trying to offload him I just can't see it being a case of he doesn't fit in with the boys.A coach would not be willing to not play him and try to offload him if he just wasn't one of the boys...If he is seriously as disliked as mentioned by some it would have to be a serious personality disorder or a serious attitude problem to training etc....Having been in some playing groups and seeing the different personality types he would have to have a seriously fxxxxd up personality for a whole playing group to dislike him.It would seem to be something more than just not being liked(training attitude,dummy spits at other players/coaches,turning up late etc....)Just my opinion....

In Hayne can get a gig, then anyone can.

In all honesty i dont think any of us know whats going on except for coach Barrett . Any interview i have seen of our coach , he can't speak highly enough of a man they call Jackson Hastings.

I'm not liking the sound of this at all. Is our coach a man or a mouse.

Wasn't Matty Ridge a similar social outcast who didn't mix with the rest of the team, at all? Dam he was a champion player, and that was a champion team he steered around the park.

Being a coach requires managing players and diverse personalities. Not avoiding it by sending mr uncool back to reserves.

It sounds like Barrett is picking a team via a popularity contest.

We all know one thing, Whacko Jacko can bloody play.

If the coach isn't picking the best player for the job, because others in the team don't like him. He's not much of a coach.
