[Horizons_00]

Its Connors that we have to worry about

Its Connors that we have to worry about

Not this time.

 

[Thndr]

The bits that actually matter:


MR: So, would it be reasonable to write you will be signing a contract extension with the Giants?

JK: I don’t know the specific answer about whether I will re-sign or not .............

Non committal and Deflection

MR: What’s the gut leaning towards tight now?

JK: It’s a tough one. My priority has always been to play footy and the (contract) has always been a bit of background noise. But the last time it rolled round there happened to be a bit of hysteria.

Deflection

MR: You didn’t just tell me you’re staying did you, Josh?

JK: Ummm.

Non committal

MR: Why can’t you say right now, ‘I’m staying’?

JK: It’s a hard question to answer.

MR: Not the way you’re talking.

JK: I can say those things, but when my gut tells me it’s the right decision I will make that decision. If I was to say that right now for the good of making a headline … I feel it’s not the right thing to say right now.

Deflection

MR: Would you like to captain the Giants?

JK: It would a huge honor to be a captain.

MR: Is that “a’’ captain or “the’’ captain?

JK: (Laughing) That’s a tough question, that’s a contract question.

Non committal and Deflection

MR: It was a huge story, Josh, and many people thought you were absolutely gone.

JK: There were times I thought I was gone as well.

Confirmation that at certain points he was out the door and off to Arden Street.

MR: No one owes anyone anything in life, but I feel talking to you today, you want to be a long-term Giant.

JK: As I said, I’ve never been rushed in these decisions. If I’m holding off, it doesn’t mean I’m going to leave. My priority has always been to play footy and this stuff gets taken care of in the background.

Deflection

MR: I was told you’re buying a house here in Sydney.

JK: I haven’t bought a house up here. If I was to stay I’d look to buy a house up here.

Has not put down roots in Sydney despite being there 6 years and despite having the money to do so. Non committal.

MR: If you did leave, would you think you’d be letting down your teammates?

JK: There’s be an element of that, purely because of what we’ve been through in terms of prelims, building the club, creating the culture. I’m sure any other player would feel bad leaving their mates. I’m passionate about the club, it’s a unique position up here with a unique bunch of blokes. I guess, simply put, that’s where my head is at. I don’t now what that statement says.

Non committal

MR: It says you’re invested in this club and if I could have that bet, I’d bet your staying.

JK: Hmmmm.

Non committal and Deflection

MR What do you think people reading this will determine from this interview?

JK: They’d see I’m passionate about where I am and what I’m working towards at the Giants. They’d also see I’m indecisive and a procrastinator.

Non committal

Indecisive and a procrastinator ..... jeez thought I was in the wrong thread there for a sec.........



:STERN BLOODY LOOK !!!!!!!!

 

[Horizons_00]

Not this time.

How so? Forgive me if this has been answered previously

 

[Snake_Baker]

Indecisive and a procrastinator ..... jeez thought I was in the wrong thread there for a sec.........

Yes, that belongs in the lying rat thread.

 

[Snake_Baker]

How so? Forgive me if this has been answered previously

Josh is a more independent confident man these days who is better versed in the ways of psychological pressuring.

 

[King Corey]

His assault charges were serious enough to warrant prison time, so I really don't see how wanting this volatile thug banned from attending footy games is a knee jerk reaction.

Doesn't that mean he's done his time then? Are you suggesting lifetime bans from attending AFL matches for anyone with a conviction?

I'd prefer good old fashioned lynchings!


One suave ****

 

[Heaps of fun]

:STERN BLOODY LOOK !!!!!!!!

That guy is a real loser.

 

[King Corey]

Where did I suggest lifetime bans for anyone with a conviction?

I'm talking specifically about Mental Mick - if you've ever met the fruit-loop, you would know he has no self-control and is extremely dangerous under the influence of alcohol. The chances of him committing another offence are significant.

I assumed you were, otherwise you're proposing a special one off set of rules and regulations for one person.

 

[Snake_Baker]

I'd sneak him in wearing a wig if they even tried to ban him!!!!

Just keep him away from the cheer squad and the ****ing cameras!

 

[The Dingrel]

I dont think he'll get another 2 year offer. Leon made it clear it's five.

Yes 2 years makes no sense, would take him to free agency and lose him for next to nothing, its 5+ or trade him.

White Krakouer,
I said some horrible words the other day, which I wish I could take back
I unreservedly apologize
I was out of line

'I haven't bought a house up here. If I was to stay....'

Curious.

Yeah, basically, if he buys a house.

 

[Del191229]

I'd love for us to have all our OOC players locked away nice & early, put a solid offer in front of Connors, with a take it or leave it approach.

Up to you mate, kthnxbai.

I'd like us to Jack a pitbull full of shard, taser its nuts then put it front of Connors and tell him to deliver Josh there and then or we let the dog off the leash.

You’re much nicer than me, I’d let the dog off and make him sign all paperwork using his own blood.

 

[The Brady Bunch]

His assault charges were serious enough to warrant prison time, so I really don't see how wanting this volatile thug banned from attending footy games is a knee jerk reaction.

You implied that he should be locked up for life for one offence, the details of which you have no idea. That makes you akin to the worst of the worst RWNJs.

Minor thing I know, but personally being from Melbourne originally, and having lived in Sydney and now Brisbane, when you make Sydney your home, you don't refer it to "up here". Melbourne is still clearly home.

“.......again he’s being linked to the Roos”

 

[Snake_Baker]

“.......again he’s being linked to the Roos”

Another journalistic non event.

It looks as though the AFL's minions are going to keep their boot heels pressed against the kids head for the entire season.

 

[Tas]

“.......again he’s being linked to the Roos”

Let the circus commence.

I hope he has taken the time over the last two years to figure what he wants to do and either re-signs promptly or makes his intention clear that he is going to leave, I am sure either way he will give 100% and GWS will want to try and win a flag this year with his services. He did us no favours stringing us along for as long as he and Martin did which made it hard for us to go after anyone else.
