Chapman v Johnson beat up

[Pavlovs Cat]

There seems to be a bit of a media beat up, or a sly attempt to promote an " angle" of a bit of niggle between Chappy and Johnson. Is there actually anything in this or is it all a load of bollocks?

i thought there are more then 2 people playing tonight?

channel shite at it again

 

[pinion]

it all seems to stem from this article from the paper that thrives on sensationalism above good journalism:

it got johnson's age wrong, both of their norm smith medal winning years wrong and god knows what else.

Just an excuse to have a camera on SJ hoping to get a cheap story for the MRP

I think it is true that they did have a bit of a flare up at one stage, but it is probably true of at least half the players in the competition having an argument with a team mate. Normal tabloid beat up.

Sj spoke to chappy after game and asked if Chappy had seen it...

Both called it bullshit journalism... posted on twitter....

Story with few facts and then even those they didn't get right.

Thanks for posting the article, pinion! I loved the pics in it- the muddy one of the two boys and then the one of Chappy that looked like a scene from Karate Kid
Ah, it was sad to see him with the wrong guernsey on tonight. I couldn't believe it when the game hung in the balance and he found a new set of legs after being a bit disappointing for the better part of the game. For a minute or two, I thought he was going to get up and steal the 4 points on his own!

Loved Stevie J's smack down of the beat up before the game

@Steviejohnson20: @ClarkyHeraldSun @Robbo_heraldsun would be a good article if Jon Anderson actually did some decent research! #speculating

Ouch.

They aren't the best of mates but it was a beat up deluxe.
